How long does it take to treat sexual dysfunction?

There is no unified recovery timetable for the treatment of sexual dysfunction. Mild symptoms caused by simple short-term physical fatigue and emotional stress can be significantly improved in 2-4 weeks. If there are organic lesions or severe psychological disorders, 3-6 months or even longer intervention is often required. A very small number of people with congenital developmental abnormalities may need surgery before the follow-up treatment effect can be discussed.

Last month, I met a 27-year-old young man. I had just been married for two months. Every time I had sex, I was so nervous that I sweated. In addition, I had stayed up for more than 20 days and nights to catch up on projects, and I immediately gave up. I came for a check-up in a panic. I found out that my hormones and blood supply to the corpus cavernosum were all intact. It was normal, so I asked him to adjust his work and rest schedule first, take a half-hour walk three days a week, and stop thinking about things before having sex. I only prescribed some mild Chinese patent medicines for conditioning. As a result, just after 20 days, he came over to report the good news, saying that he could have normal sexual life.

But if you have underlying diseases, it really won’t happen so quickly. Two years ago, there was a 48-year-old hypertensive patient who took antihypertensive drugs for five or six years. His sexual function declined for almost two years before he came to see a doctor. I first communicated with his cardiologist and adjusted the antihypertensive drug plan, plus a conditioning prescription to improve local blood supply and warm and replenish kidney yang. He himself He also cooperated very well, quit smoking, and walked 10,000 steps every day. It took more than 4 months to slowly respond, and it was almost 7 months before he returned to a state he was satisfied with. He said that he almost gave up when it didn't work in the first two months, but luckily he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Nowadays, the opinions on the Internet are quite polarized. Some people say that "results can be seen within a week." In fact, most of these are for temporarily induced functional problems. If you insist on taking a few weeks to fix the problem no matter what the situation, you are 100% making bad money. Some people say that this disease cannot be cured at all and will remain like this for a lifetime. That is too negative. As long as symptomatic intervention is provided, more than 90% of the patients I come into contact with can see varying degrees of improvement. The difference is just the length of the cycle.

To put it bluntly, this is like repairing a flower pot. If there is just a small crack on the edge of the pot, you can patch it up with some cement and let it dry for two days.； If there is a big crack in the bottom of the pot and soil has been leaking for several months, then you must clean the crack first and slowly mend it. After mending, you have to put it in a ventilated place to dry before you can plant flowers. There is no rush. A while ago, a patient came to me with a folk prescription on the Internet and said that it was said that he would be cured after taking it for a week, but it had no effect at all after taking it for half a month. After checking, I found out that he had congenital venous leakage. In this case, medication alone has limited effect. He must first evaluate whether to undergo surgery. There is no one-size-fits-all recovery timetable.

My biggest feeling after so many years of contact is, don’t always focus on other people’s recovery progress and worry blindly. You stayed up late to get through it, and he was brought out by diabetes. There is no comparison. Follow the doctor’s instructions and adjust your living habits. Don’t put too much psychological pressure on yourself. On the contrary, you will get better faster than counting the days on your fingers every day.
