How long does it take to recover from sexual dysfunction treatment?

There is really no one-size-fits-all standard answer to this question. I have been in men's clinics for almost 10 years. I have seen the youngest patient who only had transient erectile dysfunction caused by being too nervous during sex for the first time. He fully recovered after one psychological counseling session and adjusted his daily schedule for a week. I have also seen elderly patients who have been suffering from diabetes and hypertension for 20 to 30 years. It took them almost 2 years to slowly regain normal sexual intercourse by adjusting their underlying diseases and improving their sexual function.

In fact, many people immediately ask how long it will take to get better, but they neglect to first figure out what type of problem they have. Sexual dysfunction is not a single problem, there are psychological, organic, and mixed types, and the recovery speed varies greatly. To use a very common analogy, it is like repairing an electric car. If you just forget to charge it, or the brakes rub against the tires, you can just tighten the screws to charge it for half an hour and ride away. If the motor burns out and the battery is completely scrapped, you will definitely have to spend time slowly replacing it and debugging it.

For example, nearly half of the cases of psychosexual dysfunction have no problems with their reproductive organs, hormones, or blood vessels. Either they have had several failed sexual experiences before, which have left a psychological shadow, or they have been exhausted from 996 for the past few months, or they are having conflicts with their partners and are not in the mood. This kind of problem can be cured in two or three weeks as long as the inducement is cut off and the adjustment is quick. I saw obvious changes. Last week, a 28-year-old Internet practitioner came for a follow-up consultation. He had been working on a quarterly project for more than a month and failed to have sex three times in a row. He panicked and thought he was dead. All the indicators were normal, so I asked him to go to bed before 11 o'clock every day, take half an hour to run, and did not prescribe any medicine. After only 22 days, he came to report that he had completely returned to his previous state.

If it is an organic problem, there is really no need to rush. For example, taking antihypertensive drugs all year round affects the blood supply of blood vessels, previous trauma to the pelvic cavity has damaged relevant nerves, or chronic prostatitis that has lasted for more than ten years has caused rapid ejaculation and poor hardness. These basic problems must be solved first before we can talk about the recovery of sexual function. There was a 46-year-old patient with a history of diabetes of almost 10 years. His blood sugar has been fluctuating high and low, and he has had poor erection for 3 years. When he first came here, he always thought that he would be cured immediately after taking some "special medicine". After hitting a wall several times, he finally got the courage to follow the endocrinology department to adjust his blood sugar, and then cooperated with the treatment to improve the endothelial function of blood vessels. After 8 months of adjustment, he was finally able to complete sexual intercourse normally.

Nowadays, the opinions on this matter on the Internet are quite polarized. Some unscrupulous merchants boast that their products can be wrapped up in one month no matter what the situation is. They are basically looking at the money in your pocket. If the symptoms are not correct, even taking tens of thousands of yuan in supplements will be useless.； There are also people who have been treating the disease on their own for a while without any effect, so they go around saying that this disease cannot be cured at all. In fact, this is too absolute. Clinically, as long as the right triggers are found, more than 70% of patients can see significant improvement or even complete recovery after 3 to 6 months of treatment.

Oh, by the way, there is another point that many people don’t pay attention to. The attitude of the partner can also affect the speed of recovery. Previously, I had two patients with almost identical psychological erectile dysfunction. They were both 26 years old. They were newly married and had no experience. They failed several times in a row. One wife came with him every time and encouraged him. He was completely cured in less than a month. The other one was scolded by his wife as "useless" every time he failed. He also became more and more inferior. It took more than 4 months of adjustment before he gradually improved.
