Many Malaysian men are unaware that excessive pornography consumption can lead to erectile dysfunction (ED).
Clinical andrologist Dr Mohd Ismail Mohd Tambi said there has been an increase in the number of men who view porn excessively and are unable to perform or enjoy sex with their partners.
“What happens is that, they get turned on and reach a height, and then it slows down and dies. After sometime, this leads to sexual exhaustion,” he said in an exclusive interview with Astro AWANI.
