1. Spermatorrhea

Spermatorrhea is a type of spermatorrhea, which is a more serious stage of spermatorrhea. Before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, doctors believed that spermatorrhea was caused by asthenia and fatigue. There are different names for the disease, such as "spermatorrhea in dreams", "spermatorrhea in dreams", and "sperm leakage". Chao Yuanfang of the Sui Dynasty pointed out in "Treatise on the Causes and Symptoms of Various Diseases·Spermatorrhea due to Asthenia and Fatigue" that "the kidney qi is deficient and cannot store sperm, so sperm leakage occurs". It is believed that spermatorrhea is caused by kidney deficiency and loose sperm gate. In the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Danxi, in addition to inheriting the theory of deficiency from his predecessors, believed that spermatorrhea is related to dampness and heat flowing down and disturbing the sperm chamber. In the chapter of "Danxi's Heart Method·Spermatorrhea", it is said that "spermatorrhea is mainly caused by dampness and heat, Phellodendron chinense and Rhizoma Anemarrhenae can reduce fire, and Oyster powder and Clam powder can dry up dampness". It points out that spermatorrhea has an empirical side. Clinically, spermatorrhea is mostly caused by kidney deficiency and inability to retain sperm. The correct treatment for spermatorrhea is to warm the yang and nourish the kidney, consolidate the sperm and stop the spermatorrhea.

2. Causes

Although spermatorrhea also involves the leakage of sperm, it is not considered a disease as long as the frequency is within the normal range (2-3 times per month on average). However, spermatorrhea is different. It should be considered abnormal regardless of the frequency. Weak constitution, long-term chronic diseases, irritation of the lumbar spinal cord, severe neurasthenia, excessive fatigue or mental stress, inflammation of the seminal fossa, etc. may all cause spermatorrhea.

3. Symptoms

Some teenagers inexplicably "ejaculate" in broad daylight, which is more accurately called "spermatorrhea", which occurs when awake; while nocturnal emission during sleep is called somnolence. Long-term spermatorrhea is harmful to the body and can often lead to symptoms such as dizziness, backache, leg weakness, palpitations, shortness of breath, mental depression, fatigue, etc.
