Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My age is 19 years old. Recently, I quit smoking and my sexual power is somewhat decreased. How can I boost again my power back? Use of Ashwagandha will help or Shilajit? Or any other advice?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You are having erectile dysfunction problem. Smoking, alcohol can lead to that problem. So it should be avoided. For erectile dysfunction rule out vascular narrowing and thrombosis like cause using penile doppler ultrasound. Total cholesterol, blood pressure also should be checked. Rule out prostatic enlargement by ultrasonography pelvis. Underlying cause should be treated. If needed, the doctor can prescribe you Sildenafil like drug to increase penile erection. Kindly provide any history of drug intake if present like a beta blocker, diuretic, etc., that affect erection. Thank you and take care. Regards.

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