"Stamp experiments" are countless and unfounded
Experts say that in the past, doctors diagnosed impotence mainly based on patients' self statements. The determination of the etiology of impotence - whether it is psychological or organic - depends on some objective testing methods. Healthy adult men have 3-6 natural erections during sleep at night, which is a protective hyperemia process that can prevent the penis from long-term loss of arterial blood supply and necrosis. Statistical data show that the blood flow of the penis during each erection in a normal man is 201% of its normal value. Below this value, it indicates insufficient congestion and can be diagnosed as organic impotence.
The oldest method for detecting whether a male penis has natural congestion and erection at night is the "stamp test". Wrap and glue two conjoined stamps together. If you wake up and the stamp roll is torn apart, it proves that your penis has ever had an erection. The disadvantage of this method is that it is only a "qualitative" test that cannot record the number of erections and specific blood flow.
Nowadays, "radio wave tracking" is well founded
American professor of andrology Knoll invented the "bioelectricity measurement system", which can continuously measure the number, duration, length, thickness, and blood volume changes of penile erections at night, and print out these parameters and waveforms. Doctors can determine the vascular causes of erectile dysfunction in patients like reading electrocardiograms. The patient will not feel pain, just put a few electrodes on the penis before going to bed.
During the Spring Festival, a 30 year old migrant worker from other provinces often felt lower body pain after a car accident. After the incident, the migrant worker claimed compensation for sexual dysfunction from the perpetrators. Does he have impotence? Is it psychological or organic? Who's the final say? The traffic processing department conducts diagnosis. Using the "bioelectricity measurement system", it was found that the migrant worker had normal erections at night, but the amount of congestion did not reach 201% of the normal value. The hospital issued a diagnosis: "Organic impotence, mild penile congestion insufficiency.". Allowing migrant workers to claim compensation accordingly.
According to reports, since the hospital opened the first "male sexual function testing room" in the province, there has been an endless stream of patients who come to inspect and consult every day. The oldest male patient is 76 years old, and the youngest is only 16 years old. Dr. Zhang Bin believes that sexual function testing can not only be used for the diagnosis of impotence patients, but also be popularized to premarital examinations.
