Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

According to your complaints, you may be suffering from ED (erectile dysfunction). Reasons for ED include:

  1. Stress due to work, family-related, and night duties – plan for regular exercise and yoga.

  2. Depression.

  3. Varicocele – An ultrasound scrotum can help diagnose.

  4. Fear of failure - Having one episode of ED once may make you feel you will end up with ED.

  5. Low self-esteem (chronic masturbation).

  6. Homosexuality – Not attracted to the same sex.

  7. Religious constraints.

  8. Smoking and alcohol.

  9. Long-term illness – Cardiac disease, thyroid disease, kidney disease, or any other disease with long-term medication.

  10. Simple vitamin deficiency - You can use the tablet Zincovit (Zinc) and Shelcal (vitamin D).

  11. Negative attitude towards your partner.

  12. Hormonal issue – Thyroid issue, low testosterone, increased prolactin.

  13. Long-term drug usage.

  14. Diabetes and hypertension.

You need to check Doppler penis, USG (ultrasonography) pelvis, and scrotum, blood pressure, RBS (random blood sugar), free T3 (triiodothyronine), T4 (thyroxine), testosterone, and TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone).

Share more details regarding the above reasons, and we can work on diagnosis and treatment. You need to plan for regular exercise and a proper diet.

Eat a strawberry, apple, avocado, sweet potato, sesame seed, almond, garlic, and a little chocolate.

For a temporary solution, you can use tab Mildfil (Tadalafil) 5 mg (milligrams) twice a day.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
