Does male impotence necessarily mean kidney deficiency?

Everyone must know the troubles caused by male impotence. Male impotence not only affects the male friends themselves but also easily affects the lives of the couple. Therefore, many male friends with impotence have been looking for the causes of impotence. There are many causes of impotence. We cannot attribute the cause of impotence to kidney deficiency. In fact, psychological factors are also the main causes of impotence. Let’s take a look at the detailed introduction below.

Impotence is a symptom that is both familiar and unfamiliar to us. It is familiar because we often hear the word impotence, and it is unfamiliar because we don’t really understand the causes and clinical manifestations of impotence. Many friends have always believed that the symptom of impotence is caused by the kidneys, but this statement is not quite correct. Below we will analyze whether male impotence is caused by kidney deficiency.

In the traditional concepts of many citizens, whenever they hear that a man has problems with sex or decreased sexual function, they like to label him as having "kidney deficiency" or "kidney deficiency". Some elderly people who are eager to have grandchildren even often give their sons Chinese medicine for strengthening yang and nourishing the kidneys.

In clinical practice, we often encounter similar patients. Due to the influence of traditional knowledge, many people think that sexual dysfunction is absolutely related to kidney deficiency. Among patients with erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and even infertility, some do have kidney deficiency problems, but this is only a small number of people. Many people's sexual dysfunction is caused by other diseases, including psychological problems, inflammatory problems, and vascular problems caused by high blood pressure and diabetes, as well as congenital malformations... If sexual dysfunction caused by these reasons is attributed to kidney deficiency, and the real cause is not treated and tonics are abused, it will only have the opposite effect.

Kidney deficiency is divided into three types in traditional Chinese medicine: kidney yang deficiency, kidney yin deficiency, and kidney qi deficiency. Even if sexual dysfunction is caused by kidney deficiency, it is very inappropriate to blindly supplement without identifying the type of kidney deficiency. Because some patients with "yin excess" absolutely cannot be supplemented with "strong medicine", otherwise it will be harmful to the body. And warm and aphrodisiac drugs such as aconite and deer antler may even cause accidents for patients with impotence caused by hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, etc. In addition, although some patients show symptoms of kidney deficiency, such as weakened sexual function, back pain and leg pain, etc., this is mainly due to problems in their lifestyle such as hard work, lack of exercise and irregular work and rest. As long as they adjust themselves, they don’t need to take medicine at all.

In the above article, we introduced a symptom that brings a lot of trouble to men, that is, impotence. After reading the above, we know that impotence is related to many causes, and the method of treating kidney deficiency cannot be used to regulate impotence. I hope the information introduced above can help you.
