Doctor's answer:
Impotence refers to young and middle-aged individuals who, due to causes such as deficiency, fright, or damp-heat, experience the loss of nourishment in the zongjīn (penis), leading to relaxation and weakness. This results in an inability to achieve an erection, or an erection that is firm but not lasting. It is often accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue, lower back and knee weakness, dizziness and tinnitus, coldness in the scrotum and penis, reduced semen volume or low sperm motility, a sense of fullness and pain in the perineum, difficulty urinating, or clear, frequent urination.Treatment based on syndrome differentiation:
- Decline of mingmen fire: Warm and tonify the kidney yang, nourish the kidneys, and replenish essence.
- Damage to the heart and spleen: Tonify the heart and spleen.
- Fear injuring the kidneys: Benefit the kidneys and calm the spirit.
- Liver qi stagnation: Soothe the liver and resolve stagnation.
- Damp-heat descending: Clear and resolve damp-heat.
However, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment. You should consult a local traditional Chinese medicine hospital and combine the four diagnostic methods (inspection, auscultation/olfaction, inquiry, and palpation) to match the symptoms with the appropriate treatment. Only then can the medicine effectively address the condition. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
