Sexual dysfunction treatment methods

First, organic diseases are eliminated through formal medical examination, and then customized plans are combined with the individual's psychological state, intimate relationship model, and living habits. There is no one-size-fits-all "miracle prescription". Most people can achieve significant improvement after 3-6 months of comprehensive adjustments.

I have been working in the field of andrology health science popularization for almost 5 years, and the most common misunderstanding I have seen is to make up for it by labeling it as "kidney deficiency". There was a 32-year-old Internet programmer who took Liuwei Rehmannia Pills for two months after comparing his symptoms with the symptoms online. However, his morning erections were almost gone. He came to me in a panic and asked me what to do. Later, I asked him to check it out. It was not kidney deficiency at all. It was physiological erectile dysfunction (ED) caused by long-term sitting + working on projects for three consecutive months until 2 o'clock every day. Long-term sympathetic nerve excitement, insufficient pelvic blood supply, and the anxiety of always worrying that I "can't do it."

The current mainstream conditioning ideas are actually divided into several schools. There is no absolute right or wrong and they are suitable for different groups of people. For Western medicine, the first is the organic check-up line: if the level of androgen is too low, resulting in loss of desire and difficulty in erection, supplementing testosterone undecanoate as directed by the doctor can quickly improve it. ； If ED is caused by vascular endothelial damage and insufficient blood supply, the clinical effectiveness of taking tadalafil as needed and daily supplementation of coenzyme Q10 to maintain blood vessels can reach more than 70%. Of course, some Western medicine experts do not recommend long-term use of medication, believing that it will increase psychological dependence. They also recommend starting with lifestyle adjustments.

The thinking of traditional Chinese medicine is even more different. Don't believe the nonsense that all problems on the Internet are classified as "kidney deficiency". 80% of young patients now have no deficiency syndrome. They are either damp and hot caused by long-term eating spicy food and drinking, sitting and holding urine for a long time, or liver stagnation and qi stagnation caused by high stress and emotional congestion. Indiscriminate supplementation will block evil qi in the body, and the more supplements are made, the worse it will be. Many schools of traditional Chinese medicine now emphasize "regulating the mind first" and believe that most of the problems are emotional illnesses. Once the liver stagnation is relieved and the qi and blood are unblocked, the functions will naturally return. I have met several patients who did not even take any medicine. They resigned from their jobs and took half a month off, and went on a trip with their partners, and everything was fine when they came back.

There is also a type of conditioning method that does not require medication, which is quite controversial. For example, the stop-and-go method and squeeze method for premature ejaculation (PE), some clinical data say that the effectiveness of training with partners can reach more than 60%. I used to have a 28-year-old fan who used to practice it for less than 1 minute each time. I practiced it with my girlfriend for two months, and it was stable for more than 5 minutes. She didn't even use the dapoxetine prescribed by the doctor. However, some scholars believe that the relapse rate of behavioral therapy is too high and is not as stable as taking low-dose SSRI drugs. Some schools of psychology also recommend mindfulness training. To put it bluntly, when living in an intimate life, don’t always focus on the thoughts of “Can I do it this time?”

Let me talk about something that many people are embarrassed to mention. In fact, the problems of quite a few people are not about their bodies at all, but problems in their intimate relationships. There was a 35-year-old male patient who secretly took half a box of Viagra to no avail. After chatting for a long time, he revealed that he and his wife had been in a cold war for three months. They choked whenever they talked, and there was no close feeling at all. Later, he took his wife to two marriage consultations, and the knot was resolved, and he returned to normal without taking medicine. Consultants who do family systems therapy often say that sexual dysfunction is the "barometer" of an intimate relationship. If the conflict between two people is not resolved, it is basically useless to work on one person's body.

I also want to remind everyone, don’t believe those “7-day radical cure” and “enlargement and thickening” nonsense on the Internet. Regular tertiary hospitals will not perform penis enlargement surgery at all. Most of the aphrodisiacs that are touted as magical are added with banned ingredients. Taking too much can easily cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems. Some delayed sprays are added with powerful anesthetics. If used too much, the pleasure will be completely lost and the symptoms will be aggravated.

To put it bluntly, the most important thing to avoid is seeking medical treatment in a hurry. Don’t scare yourself by the symptoms on the Internet. First go to the men’s department of a regular tertiary hospital to register. It only costs tens of dollars. First, find out whether it is a physical problem, a psychological problem or a relationship problem, and then slowly adjust it. Really, for most people, it is not a serious illness that cannot be cured. It is just a small signal sent by your body or emotions. Don’t treat it as a scourge, relax and it will get better quickly.
