Patient's question:
I and my wife have been working hard in a foreign place for many years. Now we have a house and have saved some money. We plan to have a little piglet this year, but since last autumn until now, my wife hasn't been pregnant. We went to the hospital for a check-up and found that the problem is with me. I don't know what to do now. Please ask: How can sexual dysfunction be treated?Doctor's answer:
Sexual dysfunction can definitely be treated with acupuncture, but it is essential to choose a private, reputable traditional Chinese medicine hospital's acupuncture department for follow-up visits. Acupuncturists in small clinics often lack systematic training and techniques. Additionally, sexual dysfunction can also be addressed by taking herbal decoctions based on syndrome differentiation for nourishment.According to your age, there must be a reason for kidney qi deficiency. Treatment should focus on tonifying the kidneys and spleen, balancing yin and yang, and then combining acupuncture therapy. The prognosis is generally favorable. Male conditions tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, male patients should seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals immediately. Treatment decisions should be based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking and maintain good personal hygiene. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
