Patient's question:
A while ago, my wife had just finished her postpartum period, and soon after, we had sexual intercourse. However, I noticed that due to a long period without intimacy, I might be experiencing some sexual dysfunction. What should people with sexual dysfunction eat more of?Doctor's answer:
Actively engage in physical exercise, especially Qigong training, to improve physical and mental fitness and enhance mental control. Consume more foods that have the effect of tonifying the kidneys and consolidating essence, such as oysters, walnuts, Euryale seeds, chestnuts, softshell turtles, clams, pigeon eggs, and pig kidneys. Avoid excessive indulgence and sexual activity after fatigue. Individuals with premature ejaculation due to yin deficiency and excess fire should not consume overly pungent and hot foods, such as lamb, dog meat, sparrows, and beef or goat penises, to prevent worsening the condition. Male diseases can be alleviated, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after recovery.
