Patient's question:
I'm very afraid of cold, always feel cold hands and feet.. Also very lacking in energy, can't be efficient in doing things,, often feel back and waist pain... Libido has decreased a lot.. Frequent nighttime urination.. Feel the mouth is very bland, nothing tastes good.. At work, feel very annoyed...Doctor's answer:
The treatment primarily focuses on warming the kidneys to support yang and nourishing the kidneys to benefit them. Medications for the male reproductive system should not be used exclusively. When treating yang deficiency, one should seek yang within yin; when nourishing yin, one should seek yin within yang. While tonifying the kidneys, attention should also be paid to concomitant symptoms: if qi deficiency is present, add herbs to replenish qi; if blood deficiency is present, increase herbs to nourish blood; if damp-heat or blood stasis is present, support with herbs to clear heat, resolve dampness, activate blood circulation, and remove stasis. Acupuncture, massage, and Qigong can also be combined to enhance efficacy. Male infertility patients should avoid smoking, limit alcohol consumption, avoid excessive emotional tension, refrain from overexertion, and maintain regular daily routines.
