Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am a healthy 34-year-old having trouble with erectile dysfunction due to the pressure of having sex during certain times each month back to back. Is it fine if I take 10 to 20mg of Sildenafil pills to help with the dysfunction?
Kindly suggest.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com
I understand your concern.
Please do not panic. You must understand erectile dysfunction. There is nothing called erectile dysfunction while having masturbation. Losing an erection in the initial stages of sex, not having an erection at all, having a late erection, or lack of sexual desire are called erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction can be a sign of a physical or psychological condition. It can cause stress, relationship strain, and low self-confidence. I suggest sex therapy. The main symptom is a man's inability to get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse. Patients suffering from erectile dysfunction should first be evaluated for any underlying physical and psychological conditions. If treatment of the underlying conditions does not help, medications and assistive devices, such as pumps, can be prescribed. Yoga, meditation, and diet could be prescribed once we know the basic reasons for it. Two natural treatments for ED that have shown promise are red ginseng and pomegranate juice. Ginseng is thought to increase nitric oxide production, leading to improved blood flow. Pomegranate juice is a potent antioxidant and can help too. Watermelon could also help. Psychological reasons usually get cleared with sex therapy. I suggest online sex therapy. Take care.
I hope this helps.
Kindly follow up if you have more concerns.
Thank you.
