Glossary On Coping with MSD

The first step to coping with male sexual dysfunction is to be educated about the problem and not to assume that it is permanent. A sex therapist may be able to provide the right kind of education to the patient as well as answer all the queries that crowd his mind.

At Dr. Batra's, we have treated a large number of cases of male sexual dysfunction, especially erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation, with Homeopathy. We have had good results in most cases and based on our experience and expertise in treating these cases, we have observed that certain changes in lifestyle can go a long way in helping patients to deal with their problem:

• Communication: An open communication with the partner about the anxieties and fear can help to overcome the hurdles in leading a normal sex life
• Seek timely treatment for depression or anxiety, if any
• Practice means to deal effectively with stress
• Regular exercise helps to keep healthy in general
• Get adequate sleep
• Alcohol intake should be limited
• Quit smoking
• Substance abuse (e.g. marijuana) should be stopped without any delay
• Try not to expect any kind of dysfunction to happen again during the next sexual encounter
