Hello, smoking is one of the easiest & one of the most difficult habits to break because
1. Quitting cigarettes does not cause any immediate harm 2. Cigarettes are so easily available that one does succumbs into temptation of smoking just 1 more before stopping altogether.

Hello sir, Before I describe the issue, I would like to give you some background of my life style. I am a software engineer by profession, eats almost every eatable stuff (veg as well as non veg), oftenly hits gym (not regularly), doesn't smoke (quitted some 15-20 months back), strictly non alcoholic. Though I am mostly feel emotion anxiety and distress, oftenly get upset by close one's action or behavior. Also I am a patient with Haemophilia B. Now coming to my medical observation, I feel that erection health is not completely strong. I am saying on the basis of my analysis in my last sexual act. Though I was able to do thing and they were only up to average level. I feel my spouse did not enjoy completely. Could this be a case of Premature ejaculation? If yes then please suggest what needs to be done to rectify the issue. We are a newly married couple and don't wish to have a spoiled sex life. Thanks in advance.

Premature ejaculation is uncontrolled ejaculation either before or shortly after sexual penetration. It happens with minimal sexual stimulation and before the person wishes. It may result in unsatisfactory sex for both partners.
Most cases of PE are not related to any disease and are instead due to psychological factors, including:
Sexual inexperience.
Novelty of a relationship.
Overexcitement or too much stimulation.
Relationship stress.
Anxiety.
Guilty feelings.

The tobacco tar in cigarette smoke lines your lung with huge patches that make that portion dysfunctional. Your oxygen carrying capacity is jeopardized, and breathing is impinged. But don’t be discouraged because it is not too late even now to reverse all the ill-effects of smoking. I don’t know what other organs could be damaged but do go for a thorough medical check up to as...more
