    There is really no fixed standard answer to this matter. The recovery period can range from a few weeks to a few years. It depends on the type and severity of the disorder, and whether the intervention method is symptomatic.

    I just met a 28-year-old Internet programmer a while ago. I was married for just six months. During that time, I stayed up late for almost a month working on a project. I was so nervous that I was so nervous that I was sweating when I had sex with her for the first time, but I didn't succeed. After that, I was always afraid that I was not good enough. The problem was erectile dysfunction caused by typical psychological triggers and short-term fatigue. I adjusted his work and rest suggestions, and did two psychological counseling sessions with his wife, teaching relaxation techniques between partners. Within 2 months, someone came to tell him the good news and said it was completely normal.

    But not everyone can be so quick. Another 47-year-old patient I came into contact with was different. He had a 12-year history of type 2 diabetes. He had mild peripheral nerve and blood vessel disease when he came here. The erection problem took almost 3 years to be checked. This kind of problem cannot be solved in a short time. He was very cooperative. First, he strictly followed the doctor's instructions to control blood sugar, and then cooperated with low-intensity sexual function rehabilitation training. It took him almost 14 months to make steady improvements. He is still maintaining healthy living habits and does not dare to relax.

    There is a lot of quarrel about this matter on the Internet right now. One group says that as long as the right method is found, the disease can be cured within three months at most. The other group directly says that the disease cannot be cured at all and can only be supported by medicine for a lifetime. In fact, both opinions are too extreme. The former assumes that all patients are young, have no underlying diseases, and are mild cases with purely psychological triggers. The latter mostly have long-term chronic underlying diseases, or have taken unexplained quick-acting tonics before, and have taken too many detours, which is why they come to such a negative conclusion.

    In fact, this is the same as wound recovery. If it is just a small cut on the skin, just put a band-aid on it and it will heal in two or three days. If the tendon or bone is injured, it may take half a year and rehabilitation. No matter what the injury is, you can't expect it to heal in a week, right?

    Most of the problems experienced by young patients are not serious. Many of them are caused by too much stress recently, staying up too late at night, or being too nervous during sex. You don’t even need to take medicine, adjust your work and rest, and your partner will give you more encouragement and not pressure, and you may be able to get over it in a few weeks. I met a 22-year-old young man before. He drank more than a kilogram of white wine the day before and failed to have sex. He scared himself that he had an incurable disease. When he came for consultation, his face turned pale. I explained to him clearly the inhibitory effect of alcohol on blood vessels. After returning home to rest for less than 10 days, he sent a message saying that he was fine.

    There is really no need to repeatedly worry about the question "how long will it take to get better" every day. Many people originally have no big problem, but count the days and put pressure on themselves. Instead, because their emotions affect the speed of recovery, go to a regular hospital to find out what the problem is, and follow the plan in a down-to-earth manner. It is much more useful than guessing at the time and looking for random remedies.
