Patient's question:
My wife has neurasthenia and sexual apathy for over 2 years.Doctor's answer:
Hello, your partner's sexual coldness is definitely related to their neurasthenia. Treating neurasthenia is the primary issue. As long as the neurasthenia improves, the sexual coldness will certainly be alleviated.Suggestions:
How can neurasthenia be completely cured?
(1) The patient must correctly understand the illness and build confidence in overcoming it. They should recognize that it is entirely curable and will leave no aftereffects. Eliminating anxiety and fear of the disease can break the vicious cycle of anxiety and other symptoms of neurasthenia, thereby reducing symptoms.
(2) Family and friends should provide the patient with more care, help them identify the true cause of their neurasthenia, and make it convenient for them to overcome unfavorable factors.
(3) Rest and activity should be combined. Encourage the patient to participate in diverse cultural and sports activities, such as dancing, attending concerts, playing table tennis, or practicing Tai Chi. This allows the brain to be freed from tension and anxiety, enabling relaxation and helping to restore disrupted functions. Proper exercise is for better rest. Rest and recovery should be sought through activity. Patients who only focus on rest without paying attention to activity will not achieve true rest.
(4) Rational medication must be used. As the saying goes, "Healing must address the root cause." While emphasizing the above treatments, medication is often supplemented. Commonly used traditional Chinese medicines include: An Shen Bu Nao Ye (Nervous Calm Brain Liquid), Wu Wei Zi Tang Jiao (Five-Flavor Berry Syrup), Yang Xue An Shen Wan (Blood-Nourishing Calm Spirit Pill), etc. Commonly used Western medicines include: Diazepam (Stilnoct), Lorazepam (Temesta), and Lemborexant (Dayvigo). For severe insomnia, short-term use of Zolpidem (Stilnoct) may be considered. For autonomic nervous system dysfunction, Gamma-oryzanol and Compound Vitamin B can be used. Other treatments, such as acupuncture, massage, and physical therapy, also have certain effects on treatment.
