Patient's question:
Erectile dysfunction is due to insufficient kidney yang or kidney yin?Doctor's answer:
Erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence, refers to the inability of a man's penis to become erect, to become erect but not firm enough, or to remain firm for a long time during sexual activity, making it impossible to complete normal sexual life. Impotence is often caused by kidney Yang deficiency. It can also lead to premature ejaculation. You may be suitable for taking some tonifying kidney Yang medicines, such as Lìbǔ Jīnqiū, Sea Dog Pills, and Wǔzǐ Yǎnzōng. In terms of diet, it is recommended to eat more leeks, mutton, eel, and shrimp (eat with shells). Pay attention to getting enough rest and avoid staying up late.
