Male sexual dysfunction refers to a variety of problems that affect a man's ability to engage in sexual activity. It can manifest in different ways, and its causes are often multifactorial, including physical, psychological, and interpersonal factors. Here are some key points about male sexual dysfunction:
Types of Male Sexual Dysfunction:
Erectile Dysfunction (ED): Difficulty in achieving or maintaining an erection sufficient for sexual activity.
Premature Ejaculation (PE): Ejaculation that occurs too quickly, often before or shortly after penetration.
Delayed Ejaculation: Difficulty in reaching orgasm or ejaculation, even with adequate stimulation.
Low Libido (Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder): Reduced interest or desire for sexual activity.
Prevalence:
The prevalence of male sexual dysfunction increases with age but can affect men of all age groups.
Erectile dysfunction is more common in older men, affecting a significant percentage of men over 40.
Causes:
Physical Factors: Diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, hormonal imbalances, neurological disorders, and certain medications can contribute to sexual dysfunction.
Psychological Factors: Stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues can impact sexual performance.
Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and lack of exercise can contribute to sexual problems.
These conditions are prevalent in the modern world, affecting nearly 70% of men aged 35 to 60. Part our job as clinicians is to raise awareness about how Chinese medicine can offer support to men grappling with this issue.
The benefits of Chinese medicine in treating male sexual dysfunction may not be widely recognised or known in certain regions, and many men endure their struggles silently or receive care that fail to address the root cause, potentially leading to additional health complications.
In this seminar, Salustino will dissect formulas for addressing male sexual dysfunction, including examples like Chai hu jia long gu mu li tang and Gui zhi jia long gu mu li tang. We hope this webinar will help you gain confidence in treating these conditions and the results will speak for themselves. Register your place!
