The triangular relationship between kidney deficiency, prostatitis and premature ejaculation

Kidney deficiency, prostate and premature ejaculation are three common male symptoms in life. Many people think that kidney deficiency is caused by premature ejaculation. So is this the case? Let’s take a look together!

Kidney deficiency

Kidney deficiency refers to the deficiency of kidney essence, qi, yin and yang. There are many types of kidney deficiency, the most common of which are kidney yin deficiency and kidney yang deficiency.

The symptoms of kidney yang deficiency are "cold", mainly low back pain, cold limbs, fear of cold, and even edema. Poor sexual function can also lead to kidney yang deficiency.

The symptoms of kidney yin deficiency are "heat", mainly low back pain, dryness, night sweats, spontaneous sweating, dizziness, tinnitus, etc.

Modern science has proven that when a person suffers from kidney deficiency, whether it is kidney yin deficiency or kidney yang deficiency, it will lead to a decrease in the person's immune ability. There is more evidence that when kidney deficiency occurs, the kidney's immune ability is reduced, and the kidney's microcirculation system will also be blocked, and the kidney network will become blocked.

prostatitis

Prostatitis is a common disease in urology, and ranks first among male urology patients under 50 years old. There are four types:

Type I: Equivalent to acute bacterial prostatitis in the traditional classification method.

Type II: Equivalent to chronic bacterial prostatitis in the traditional classification method.

Type III: chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome,

Type IV: Asymptomatic prostatitis. Among them, nonbacterial prostatitis is far more common than bacterial prostatitis.

Premature ejaculation

Premature ejaculation is the most common ejaculation dysfunction, with an incidence rate of more than 1/3 among adult men. The definition of premature ejaculation is still controversial. It is usually evaluated by the male's ejaculation latency period or the frequency of female orgasm during sexual intercourse. For example, if a male loses the ability to control ejaculation during sexual intercourse, ejaculation before or just after the penis enters the vagina is the standard; or if the frequency of female orgasm during sexual intercourse is less than 50%, premature ejaculation is defined as the standard. It is generally believed that it is normal for a healthy man to ejaculate after the penis is inserted into the vagina for more than 5 minutes.

"Kidney deficiency" is mostly caused by prostate disease

At a recent meeting of the Chinese Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Kong Lingxin (founder of Jishantang), a famous Chinese medicine expert, made a new explanation on this issue. Dr. Kong said that traditional medicine believes that kidney deficiency can cause male sexual dysfunction. Comparative studies in modern medicine have found that the "kidney" in traditional Chinese medicine and the "kidney" in modern medicine are two different concepts. The "kidney" mentioned in traditional Chinese medicine governs water, stores essence, and controls reproduction. It is the exterior and interior of the bladder, opens up to the two yin organs, and controls defecation and urination. From the function of the "kidney" mentioned in traditional Chinese medicine, it can be seen that it is almost completely consistent with the function of the prostate, while the "kidney" mentioned in modern medicine does not have these functions. Therefore, the kidney in the theory of the five internal organs in traditional Chinese medicine should refer to the prostate rather than the kidney for men.

80% of premature ejaculation is caused by prostate disease

According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, 80% of premature ejaculation is caused by prostate disease. Another 20% is due to psychological or other reasons. Because the prostate is the largest accessory gland in the male body and is the gate that controls male ejaculation. The nerves of normal glands are sensitive and they obey the brain's commands, opening and closing as needed. It has good elasticity, can be closed tightly and opened smoothly, and the gate that controls semen ejaculation is very sensitive.

When the gland becomes inflamed, the flexible and elastic prostate becomes stiff and hardened, the blood vessels and nerves within the gland are damaged to varying degrees, the gland's elasticity disappears, and it neither obeys the brain's commands nor opens and closes tightly. This is a "gate" failure, and semen cannot be controlled, resulting in premature ejaculation and, in severe cases, impotence.
