How long does it take to treat sexual dysfunction?

There has never been a unified standard answer to this question. In the cases I encountered in clinical practice, the patient basically returned to normal in the fastest 3 weeks. There are also many people who took slow adjustment for one or two years to see results.

Many people are always eager to be sure when they first discover a problem. It is best to just take care of things and live well. In fact, it is not that simple. After all, everyone has different reasons for the problem, physical foundation, and even the degree of coordination and adjustment. The recovery time will naturally vary. A while ago, a 26-year-old young man came to see a doctor. He was too nervous to have sex with his girlfriend for the first time and failed. After that, he had psychological shadows every time. He was more and more afraid that he would not be able to get out of the situation. When he came for a check-up, his hormone and blood vessel functions were all good. It was purely because of the heavy psychological burden. I didn’t prescribe too many medicines for him, so I told him not to rush into sex, but to take more time to exercise, and to talk more about daily life matters when dating with his girlfriend. If he really wanted to try it, he should take a small dose of Tadalafil half an hour beforehand. When he came for a follow-up visit in the third week, he said that he had succeeded several times, and now he has no problem without taking any medicine at all.

But if you have underlying organic problems, you will definitely not be in a hurry. A 48-year-old brother who just returned to the clinic last month has a history of diabetes for 12 years. His blood sugar control is a mess. His fasting blood sugar often soars to more than 10. He has had erectile dysfunction for more than three years. In this case, if the blood sugar is not stabilized first, the blood vessels and nerves will be damaged by being exposed to a high sugar environment for a long time, and it will be useless no matter how many conditioning medicines are taken. He first went to the endocrinology department to adjust his blood sugar in the first three months, and then cooperated with the intervention of blood vessel dilation and nerve nutrition. After a full 7 months of conditioning, he came to tell me that he could finally have a satisfactory sex life.

Nowadays, the opinions on this matter on the Internet are quite polarized. Some people say that "it can be completely cured in three months at most", while others say that "this disease cannot be cured at all and can only be supported by taking medicine for a lifetime." In fact, both opinions are too extreme. The former is probably a deliberate attempt by merchants who sell three-no aphrodisiac products to make you pay for their "magic medicine"” ； The latter either did not find the right cause of the disease and treated it randomly, or they completely disobeyed the doctor's advice and were unable to quit smoking. They stayed up until two or three o'clock every day on a regular schedule and only took one pill when they remembered. In this case, no matter how good the treatment plan is, it is useless.

To put it bluntly, treating sexual dysfunction is like repairing a car. If the battery is temporarily out of power and can’t start, you can probably drive away in ten minutes by calling on a phone.； If the engine is severely worn, it will have to be disassembled for inspection, parts replaced, and debugged repeatedly, which will naturally take a long time. If you really encounter this problem, don't worry about how long it will take to get better. First find a specialist in a regular hospital to find out the root cause and cooperate with the doctor's plan. It is much more effective than scaring yourself by browsing fragmented information on the Internet every day. After all, the better you cooperate, the faster the recovery will be.
