Don’t panic if you have a sexually transmitted disease; it’s best to seek medical attention calmly

 　　As male reproductive health.. disease The increasing number of such cases has prompted many doctors to change their profession and claim titles such as "renowned urologists" or "goddesses of fertility" in order to deceive people everywhere. For a time, advertisements for these "miracle doctors" could be found not only in newspapers and magazines but also on utility poles, in residential alleys, and even in toilets. Medicines, foods, and health supplements claimed to nourish yin and strengthen yang flooded the streets and villages, becoming widespread throughout the city and countryside. This scene is truly eerie… It’s as if in China, “five hundred million people are actually five hundred million; every single one of these five hundred million people…” Kidney deficiency … ”It is very troubling to see patients who continue to suffer despite repeated treatments, and whose conditions even worsen as a result of these treatments, while at the same time being deceived. We must speak out loudly: Many urologists should write more articles on sexual health knowledge, so that people will not seek medical help in desperation or unnecessarily, and so that they can fully enjoy the warmth, happiness, and fulfillment of a healthy family life.

　　Studies conducted by sexologists both domestically and internationally have found that..: Pathological changes in sexuality nerve Their spiritual connections are particularly strong and inseparable. Some scholars believe that the emergence of mental illness stems from abnormal sexuality; we often only recognize objective behaviors while neglecting subjective symptoms and conscious thoughts, and unsatisfactory sex lives lead to emotional instability, neurosis, and nervous tension ； On the contrary, a satisfying sex life provides a sense of balance and pleasure. However, during the act of sexual intercourse… impotence、Premature ejaculation Yet it deprives one of normal sexual satisfaction； Excessive nocturnal emissions and masturbation can also lead to fatigue, weakness, depression, as well as nervousness and neurasthenia resulting from irritability. When these conditions persist, sexual arousal is inhibited, the function of the sexual organs becomes abnormal, and libido gradually diminishes or even disappears altogether. The periodic changes in the male genitalia, which are evident externally, lead to significant neurological and functional alterations Sexual dysfunction It is always associated with neurological phenomena; sexual disorders caused by mental, emotional, or psychological factors, or mental and psychological symptoms resulting from sexual disorders, hold immense significance in the diagnosis and treatment of male health issues. It is highly advised that patients suffering from such conditions avoid anxiety.

　　① Worried about masturbation

        Masturbation is a self-limiting activity intended for one's own pleasure； Masturbation is a normal sexual behavior that is adapted to the sexual physiological development of adolescents ； Masturbation is the primary sexual activity that serves to release the accumulated sexual energy within the body ； Masturbation is a normal sexual activity that is common among humans. Such arguments suggest that masturbation is a normal behavior, yet society generally considers it to be harmful. The taboo surrounding masturbation is deeply ingrained, and the vast majority of men and women feel some sense of guilt regarding it. In fact, moderate masturbation does not have any such effects mental illness A problem in physics. Neurosis or mental illness, although related to masturbation, are not caused by it. It is rather the psychological symptoms resulting from excessive masturbation and genital inflammation that are the root causes of sexual neurasthenia and sexual dysfunction. The harm caused by masturbation is far less severe than the psychological and physical damage resulting from self-imposed mental stress. Therefore, individuals who engage in masturbation should not worry excessively or panic, as this will only increase their mental burden and exacerbate their existing problems.

　　② Fear of "prostatitis"”

       In traditional Chinese medicine, “jing zhuo” is equivalent to what modern medicine would refer to as a chronic condition Prostatitis The condition is caused by an infection with bacteria or viruses, or in the absence of an infection, by chronic congestion of the prostate over an extended period of time. Weakness and infections are the main causes, particularly among middle-aged and young people men The most common diseases. Many patients have a poor understanding of this disease and seek medical treatment indiscriminately, resulting in serious burdens on their mental health, psychological well-being, and family finances. This disease clinical The symptoms are complex and varied. In addition to changes in reproductive and sexual functions, there are also urinary symptoms, changes in urine characteristics, and discomfort or pain in the anterior genital area. Neurological and psychiatric symptoms are also common. Patients experience numerous concerns and feel depressed, fearing that these issues will affect their fertility and sexual function. They may also suffer from symptoms of neurasthenia, such as dizziness, difficulty concentrating, random thoughts, and various hallucinations. In some cases, sexual neurasthenia may arise as a result of this underlying stress.

　　Furthermore, another major symptom in patients with chronic prostatitis is “abstinence” or the inhibition of ejaculation. The reason for this is…: “The discharge of a large amount of semen at the end of urination suggests that engaging in sexual activity again could potentially deplete one’s vital essence. However, this is not necessarily the case. Moderate and regular sexual activity can actually be beneficial for the treatment of such conditions, as the saying goes, “Running water does not rot, and a door hinge does not decay.” Abstinence or suppressing ejaculation are, on the other hand, highly contraindicated for this condition. Because sexual repression and incomplete sexual intercourse only serve to exacerbate various symptoms and psychological burdens. Only through proper integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment to alleviate symptoms, combined with exercise to enhance the body's resistance, can the symptoms of weakness and chronic infections be gradually reduced, improved, or eliminated.

　　③ Fear of nocturnal emissions

       More than 80% of unmarried adolescent males experience nocturnal emissions, which is a normal physiological phenomenon and represents a natural way for sexual energy to be released. Having it 1 to 2 times a month is considered within the normal range and is a physiological form of nocturnal emission. It is also normal for some young people to experience nocturnal emissions only once every six months or several months; it is unreasonable to blame oneself for having low sexual desire. Some people believe that nocturnal emissions can damage one's vital energy, and that feelings of mental distress are unnecessary concerns. Pathological nocturnal emissions can be seen in cases of phimosis, redundant prepuce, or inflammation of the genitourinary tract. It is not uncommon for men to experience emotional distress, decreased memory, poor academic performance, or even sexual dysfunction such as erectile dysfunction due to either too frequent or too infrequent nocturnal emissions. There is no need to fear physiological nocturnal emissions, and it is even worse to try to stop them by applying pressure with your hands. It is best to let them occur naturally ； Pathological nocturnal emissions should be treated actively.

　　④ Sexually transmitted disease depression

       In my experience at the male outpatient clinic, I frequently encounter individuals who suffer from sexual dysfunction due to long-term psychological distress resulting from "sexually transmitted diseases." For example: A 35-year-old man, despite having been cured of gonorrhea, was experiencing extreme anxiety. He visited numerous hospitals for repeated examinations and was constantly worried and distressed. Eventually, he encountered difficulty in erecting his penis, which led to the breakdown of his marriage. He then came to our outpatient clinic. With vacant eyes and incoherent speech, he declared himself to be..: “I can’t sleep all night; I have a headache and no appetite. Moreover, the toxins from the sexually transmitted disease are attacking my brain, moving down to my soles of the feet, and affecting my heart as well. ”I’m begging you with tears in my eyes to give me one more week of treatment with “Lini Zhi”. Persuasion and advice were of no avail. Due to panic and depression, he suffered from sexual dysfunction. The breakdown of the “sexual bond” that maintains family intimacy, coupled with financial pressures and the mockery from colleagues and friends, made it impossible for him to cope with such stress. To reach such a state of “collapse” is indeed tragic. It’s not the sexual disorder itself that is truly frightening, but rather the lack of knowledge about sex and the misguided treatments provided by some doctors that have led to such a serious problem. How regrettable!

　　⑤ Lack of knowledge about sex

       Due to a lack of knowledge about sex, it is not uncommon for people to seek medical advice at urology clinics. Among them, there are many who are dissatisfied with the fact that their penises are short and not as thick as those of others, and this often leads to various health problems. A 32-year-old man whose wife is one year older than him has experienced normal sexual desire and erectile function for the past 10 years since marriage. They have engaged in sexual activity 1 to 2 times per week, occasionally 2 to 3 times. However, over the past year, his wife has sought medical attention due to dissatisfaction with the length of his penis (which erects to about 12 centimeters). She has an increased sexual desire and requires orgasm at least twice each night; without sexual intercourse, she experiences significant distress. Additionally, she feels that the penetration and movement of his penis during intercourse are not sufficient, which greatly affects his self-esteem as a man. His wife’s constant complaints weighed heavily on him, causing him to experience dizziness, tinnitus, insomnia, frequent dreams, night sweats, fatigue, weakness in his waist and knees, difficulty concentrating, and a general lack of energy throughout the day. He always felt guilty towards his wife. Eventually, he advised her to seek treatment at the relevant medical departments, and all his symptoms disappeared. Since then, their sexual life has been as satisfying as ever.

　　While pursuing my postgraduate studies under the renowned national scientist Professor Xu Fusong, I read a large number of letters regarding various diseases from all over the country: Among the common diseases in urology, whether functional or organic, there is one symptom that is particularly common and noticeable: “sexual repression” or “sexual anxiety.” The clinical manifestations include emotional depression, quiet unhappiness, pessimism and disappointment, or feelings of confusion and lack of purpose, along with a complete absence of any desire for progress or knowledge acquisition ； Feeling dazed, burdened by a heavy psychological load, and reluctant to speak about it, one tends to keep such feelings bottled up inside.

　　The classic of traditional Chinese medicine: "Huangdi Neijing • Treatise on Pain": “All diseases arise from the imbalance of qi. ”Excessive depression resulting from changes in mental state and emotional distress can damage the yin-yang balance, qi, and blood of the five organs, leading to various health problems. Prolonged emotional distress and suppression not only affect the functioning of these organs but can also worsen existing conditions. The ancient medical masterpiece "Danxi Xinfa • Liu Yu" proposes..: “When qi and blood are in harmonious balance, no diseases arise; but whenever there is stagnation or frustration, various illnesses ensue. Therefore, all diseases in the human body originate from such stagnation. ”The great Ming Dynasty physician Zhang Jiebin also mentioned this in "Jingyue Quanshu • Depression Disorders": “The five vital energies become stagnant when disease occurs: Emotional distress leads to illness as a result of that distress. ”It is evident that depression can lead to illness, and illness can exacerbate mental distress, especially in patients with male reproductive health issues. Both factors are detrimental to recovery. Qing Dynasty • Xu Wenbi’s “Shoushi Zhuanxin • Cultivation Should Cherish Essence, Vitality, and Spirit”: “The human body is like a nation, and the spirit is like its ruler; when the ruler is good, the nation is well-governed ； When the people are united, the nation becomes strong ； Just as wealth is valuable and its accumulation makes a nation prosperous, it is therefore believed that those suffering from mental illnesses should avoid expending their energy on worry and anxiety.

　　Clinically, it is observed that the majority of male reproductive system disorders are accompanied by depressive symptoms. As Professor Xu Fusong, my mentor, once said…: The treatment of depression in men is far more difficult than in women, due to physiological characteristics such as male stubbornness. Therefore, it is essential to use both psychological treatment and medication in combination, as psychological therapy can greatly enhance the effectiveness of medical treatment.

　　We advise many patients suffering from male health issues to face their conditions in a positive manner, to understand the close relationship between mental state and the physiological and pathological processes of the human body, to pay attention to regulating their emotions, and to maintain a healthy psychological outlook. Avoiding unnecessary worry and anxiety will greatly benefit the recovery process.
