Patient's question:
A year ago, sexual intercourse led to prostatitis. After treatment, I didn't take any medication for a year. Then recently, I took Chinese and Western medicine for four months and felt it was improving. I haven't taken any medicine for half a month, but now I have frequent nocturnal emissions, night sweats, dry mouth, dark circles under the eyes, and good appetite. After nocturnal emissions, I feel tired, have dry mouth, and now I have a good lifestyle and regular routine. Mainly, I want to solve the problem of frequent nocturnal emissions. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Ejaculation is a common issue in traditional Chinese medicine, often attributed to 1. Kidney deficiency, 2. Spleen deficiency, 3. Damp-heat, or 4. Blood stagnation. Your symptoms include deep sleep, frequent dreams, dark circles under the eyes, and dry mouth, suggesting a higher likelihood of kidney deficiency. A precise diagnosis requires analyzing your symptoms, tongue coating, and pulse. A comprehensive evaluation can help determine the pattern of disharmony, enabling targeted herbal treatments. It would be beneficial to consult a TCM practitioner for holistic herbal care. Pay attention to your daily diet and lifestyle habits. Avoid alcohol and spicy foods, maintain a calm mood, and keep a regular routine in your diet, living, and rest.
