What are the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine in treating sexual dysfunction? Although there are currently many methods for treating sexual dysfunction on the market, from medication to surgery to psychology. However, influenced by traditional beliefs, many men still rely more on traditional Chinese medicine methods. So, can traditional Chinese medicine actually treat sexual dysfunction and how to treat it.
What are the methods for treating sexual dysfunction in traditional Chinese medicine? Male experts point out that there are five main methods for treating sexual dysfunction in traditional Chinese medicine:
Acupuncture and moxibustion treatment: Chinese traditional medicine believes that sexual dysfunction is mainly related to the "kidney", and acupuncture and moxibustion can correct the disorder of renal function through the role of the meridians, which can be used to treat impotence, spermatorrhea and other sexual function diseases.
Psychological therapy: When exploring the causes of impotence in the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, it is summarized as several major reasons, such as "endless thoughts, unwilling desires, sexual desire outside, and excessive sexual intercourse". Therefore, the use of psychological medicine is also necessary for treatment. That is, "Anything that can satisfy a person's wishes and relieve the indescribable sadness in their heart is called a heart medicine." Based on the patient's problems, seek psychological reasons, and then provide counseling.
Massage therapy: The role of massage in sexual function is to develop the sensory area and promote sexual excitement, such as a complete set of methods for men to massage and their wives to cooperate from the non sensitive area to the sensitive area from top to bottom; There are also two types of treatments: acupoint massage and local massage, which can unblock meridians, adjust yin and yang, and improve sexual function. According to different states and needs, doctors develop treatment plans and then implement them. Generally, it can treat male sexual dysfunction such as impotence, premature ejaculation, and enuresis, as well as female low libido and lack of orgasm.
Traditional Chinese medicine treatment: There are many prescriptions for sexual therapy in the medical books of Mawangdui, including both internal and external medication. In the popular drug therapy at that time, topical drugs were much more common than oral drugs. The commonly used method is to apply medication to the penis or wash the vagina with medication, which is clearly different from the current treatment method that mainly relies on medication.
Drugs with sexual therapeutic effects, such as gecko, hippocampus, snake bed, epimedium, etc., can enhance sexual arousal and promote semen production. However, some drugs have serious side effects, such as using insects such as Yangsi, Red Ant, and Cantharis as external medication in the "Health Recipe" to stimulate sexual desire and treat impotence. These insects are all toxic, and improper use can cause local congestion, burning pain, nausea, vomiting, hematuria, and other reactions, even life-threatening in severe cases. Therefore, medication treatment must be used under the guidance of a professional doctor.
Food therapy: The "Ten Questions" in the medical book of Mawangdui proposed methods for food therapy: it is necessary to persist in the "way of eating yin" (eating foods with nourishing yin effects), including cypress kernels, cow and sheep milk, etc; If sexual activity is frequent, birds can be used for nourishment. Among them, the eggs laid by spring sparrows and the roosters that have just started singing have the strongest nourishment effect. Usually, bird eggs can also be taken in stir fried malt powder. Taking these foods seriously can lead to "death" (treating impotence). Other commonly used methods include the reproductive organs of animals, which are taken as "organs" to replenish the organs.
The treatment of sexual dysfunction in traditional Chinese medicine, such as impotence without lifting, lifting without firmness, firmness without firmness, premature ejaculation, ejaculation, infertility, low sperm survival rate, prostate disease, etc., all belong to male sexual dysfunction. It not only affects the quality of sexual life, but also accelerates the aging of the human body. Therefore, when men experience sexual dysfunction, early treatment is necessary.
