Patient's question:
Here are a few times when I was having sex with my wife, I always wanted to be hard but couldn't get hard. I suspect I have sexual dysfunction, and I want to know what are the treatments for male sexual dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that you use acupuncture and moxibustion. Acupuncture and moxibustion are common methods in traditional Chinese medicine for treating diseases, and their appropriate and flexible application can yield good results. Male sexual dysfunction is the most common condition treated with acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine. By stabilizing abnormal kidney function through acupuncture, the goal of treating sexual dysfunction is achieved. Acupuncture therapy develops sexual sensory areas, enhances sexual arousal to reach the therapeutic goal, and has no side effects for male patients. For male patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition, whereas delayed treatment can affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take oral medications promptly and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
