Countermeasures for erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation are analyzed as follows:

1. Psychological adjustment: Patients with erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation often experience psychological stress and anxiety. Maintaining a positive mindset is crucial for recovery. It is important to develop a correct understanding of the condition, avoid excessive tension and inferiority, and enhance self-confidence.

2. Improvement of lifestyle habits: Maintain a regular作息 (作息 should be translated as "作息" here to preserve the original meaning related to rest and work patterns), avoid staying up late; quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption; maintain a balanced diet with adequate nutrition; engage in moderate exercise to improve physical fitness; avoid prolonged sitting to reduce adverse effects on the reproductive organs.

3. Medication treatment: Depending on the specific condition, doctors may choose appropriate medications, such as PDE5 inhibitors for erectile dysfunction and SSRIs for premature ejaculation. Medication treatment must be conducted under medical supervision.

4. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) treatment: TCM employs syndrome differentiation and treatment principles, using herbal remedies to regulate the body, such as kidney-nourishing and yang-enhancing therapies. Acupuncture, massage, and other TCM treatments can also be combined.
