Patient's question:
Male, only 30 years old, married and settled down for 2 years, but still hasn't had a baby. He has always had a lackluster sex life with his wife. Every time they have sex, it's rushed and unsatisfying. What foods can improve sexual function?Doctor's answer:
The issue of poor sexual performance is likely related to conditions such as insufficient kidney yang, depleted kidney essence, and insufficient qi and blood. Properly nourishing qi and blood and tonifying the liver and kidneys can be beneficial for overall health. Engaging in appropriate physical activity and consuming more dark-colored foods can help in boosting kidney function and enhancing vitality. You can eat a lot of black rice porridge, black soy milk, and sesame paste. Alternatively, you can cook porridge with ingredients like walnuts, goji berries, and peanuts. It is advisable to consult a traditional Chinese medicine specialist and a urologist to investigate the underlying causes and receive targeted treatment.
