Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 33-year-old male and I am single. I suffer from poor erection (two years) and premature ejaculation (since start). I tried Viagra and Caverta, the result was good but I got a headache and heaviness in the head after taking medicine. I also noticed high BP. I have also tried herbal or ayurveda products but after taking Swet Musli I got heaviness in the head and heavy gas. I also tried some more medicine like Nano Leo, ED Save and some more as prescribed by one doctor but did not work well with no side effect. Please advice.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Before I proceed I would like to know the following important things. Dosage and duration of each medicine tried till date. Details of any medical illness such as hypertension, diabetes, cardiac illness, asthma among others. Do you get early morning erections? If yes, how frequent and how intense?

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply,

Below is the reply to all questions. I took ED Save and Nano Leo before one year for a month only but I stopped taking medicine because I did not feel any improvement. There were one to two more medicine along with these medicines for which I do not remember the name. I do check my full body check-up at regular intervals but I do not have any cardiac illness or diabetes. I am allergic to dust, fuel, and cold. And yes I feel the tension all the time and sometimes I notice high or low blood pressure. I took high BP medicine seven to eight times in my life after consulting with the doctor. On an average two to three times in a week but I do not feel a hard erection.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Kindly send me the reports of a yearly check-up. In case you do multiple reports please attach following reports such as CBC (complete blood count), blood sugar, urea creatinine, LFT (liver function test), lipid profile, serum testosterone, serum prolactin, LH (luteinizing hormone), and FSH (follicular stimulating hormone).

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply,

I have not found my old diagnostic report. I will visit the diagnostic center tomorrow and send you the complete report as soon as possible. Sorry to bother but I want to inform you one more thing. I feel pain in nerves at the time of ejaculation if I continue masturbation.

Answered by Dr. Ashok Kumar

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

We will take the final decision after seeing the reports but considering this fact I feel USG (ultrasound) abdomen with pelvis is also required. So please request the diagnostic center to carry out USG abdomen with the pelvis.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply,

I have got all the reports today. I also found my old reports of blood and urine tests. I also got my penile doppler report. Here I am attaching all the reports for your reference. Please check and give me your valuable feedback. Looking for your positive response.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

First of all, I would like to state that the problem is organic and it needs to be treated. I mean to say that the problem is not in your head (otherwise known as psychological). The cause of the problem are much fold but the following are possible causes such as high cholesterol, high stress, low testosterone, high oxidative stress resulting in endothelial dysfunction as evidenced by penile doppler study. For the management, I feel following things should help you. Take Tablet Coenzyme Q 100 mg one tablet per day and Tablet Tetrafol Plus (L-Methylfolate) twice a day. Avoidance of fatty foods. Cholesterol is high but diet management is quite good to bring it back to normal.

Do regular physical exercise. To manage the oxidative stress and improve the vascularity, use antioxidants such as Revival or any of them which suits you. Take plenty of fluids. Use citrus fruits and most importantly stress management. In addition, I will recommend a low dose of Tadalafil (2.5 mg per day). This is prescription only medication and you may need to see a doctor to get a prescription. I understand that this causes a headache but 2.5 mg is unlikely to cause a headache as a side effect. I also recommend the use of Paroxetine 12.5 mg at bedtime. This will manage the premature ejaculation as well as depression to large extent. This is again prescription-only medication and you need to follow above procedure to buy it from the market.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thanks for your suggestion. Please confirm how long should I take all these medicines? As I confirm I have an allergy to cold, fuel and dust and therefore I cannot eat curd or citrus fruits. If possible please confirm the alternate of citrus fruits. And last question. Can the problem I discussed be cured, and how long (age) can I manage?

Answered by Dr. Ashok Kumar

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Although it is not possible to predict complete recovery in such situations, most individuals need treatment ranging from three to twelve months as minimum duration. You are not supposed to continue same treatment and it is advisable to follow up regularly every 15 to 30 days. Depending upon the response the course may be extended or shortened. An alternative of citrus fruits includes Vitamin C tablets (available with brand name Limcee 500 mg). Regarding cure, this again depends upon the extent of damage and response to different medications in a timely manner. Since the problem is long-standing, the prognosis is slightly guarded (not that great).

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
