Maintaining Testicular Health Naturally: Herbal Anti-Inflammatory Remedies
A while ago, when I accompanied my friend to have a physical examination, he secretly asked the doctor about his testicular discomfort, and his voice was as small as a mosquito's. Later, I learned that because he didn't care too much, he endured half a month and didn't even dare to exercise.
In fact, many men have experienced this embarrassment, as the most fragile and critical reproductive organ of men, which is responsible for sperm production and hormone secretion, but they are prone to problems, such as orchitis.
Compared with blind medication, there are many mild natural herbs in traditional Chinese medicine, which can not only resist inflammation and maintain the testicular health, but also take into account the overall conditioning.
This article talks about these natural herbal anti-inflammatory solutions to protect testicular health, so you don't have to worry about such problems anymore.
What Factors Cause Orchitis?
If you would like to protect your testicles, find the root cause first. There are two main causes of orchitis. Only when you make it clear can you deal with it pertinently.
Blood transmission: Men with weak constitutions and poor immunity usually get inflammation, such as mumps and tonsillitis, and the bacteria may follow the blood to the epididymis, thus causing orchitis. Just like the "germ express" in the body, it runs around along the blood circulation and accidentally strikes the fragile testicles.
Bacterial infection: This is the more common cause. Common bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus can enter the urinary tract from the urethra, causing urethritis and prostatitis, and then "run" to the epididymis and testis through the lymphatic system or the vas deferens, leading to orchitis. Simply put, the minor problems of the urinary system were not dealt with in time, and the testicles were implicated.
Note: Orchitis can not be belittled; if not dealt with, it may induce prostatitis, nephritis, a serious impact on sexual function, and fertility. Early detection, early with a mild way of conditioning, is the most secure.
Daily Maintenance: 5 Kinds of Herbs
For the discomfort in the testicles and daily maintenance, there is no need to use complex formulas at the beginning. These five herbs can be used in water and stew at ordinary times. They are mild and less irritating, and can help improve testicular function.
Goji berry: Goji berry is a cost-effective maintenance herb, rich in zinc and antioxidants, which can help improve the synthesis of testosterone. Traditional Chinese medicine says that it can tonify the kidneys and improve the quality of sperm.
Usually, you can grab 10 g of Goji berries, drink them with boiling water, or put them in when cooking porridge. With a few red dates, the taste is better, and it enhances the benefits. However, it should be noted that people with chronic inflammation should not drink too much, as they are prone to getting inflamed.
Epimedium: The name sounds a little special. The icariin in it is very powerful. It can directly stimulate the "small factory" (Leydig cells) responsible for the secretion of testosterone in the testicles. It is very friendly to people with sexual dysfunction.
It can be decocted or made into capsules, and the daily dosage should not exceed 15 g. Hypertensive patients should be careful when using it, as it may cause blood pressure fluctuations; in addition, with squats, such a simple exercise, the effect will be more obvious.
Cistanche deserticola: It is known as "desert ginseng," in which phenylethanoid glycosides can improve damaged spermatogenic cells, which is very helpful for involuntary seminal emission and premature ejaculation caused by kidney-yang deficiency. The most recommended usage is to stew 20 g of Cistanche deserticola and mutton together and drink it twice a week to warm the body and nourish the kidneys.
However, it should be noted that people with Yin deficiency and fire hyperactivity should not use it, such as those who are prone to dry mouth and hot palms, which may aggravate symptoms.
Ginseng: Ginsenosides can improve gonadal function through the body's "regulatory center" (hypothalamus-pituitary axis), and also help improve testicular blood circulation. It is enough to take red ginseng slices or soak some medicinal liquor every day.
People with a bad heart should be aware that it may cause palpitations. It's best to monitor your heart rate when you use it. If you eat it with vitamin E, the antioxidant effect will be better.
Dodder seed: Its flavonoids can protect testicular tissue from oxidative damage and are friendly to people with oligospermia and asthenospermia. The traditional usage is to decoct 9 g of Dodder seed with prepared rehmannia root, and people with loose stool at ordinary times should reduce the dosage.
In addition, it can significantly increase testicular weight, improve sperm motility, and is a good helper for testicular maintenance.
Three Classic TCM Formulas
If testicular discomfort is more obvious, or accompanied by kidney deficiency symptoms, such as poor sperm quality, low sexual satisfaction. You can try these three classic formulas, which are commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine, mild and effective.
Bu Shen San (Kidney-Strengthening Powder):
Prepare 10 g of cooked Prepared rehmannia root, 10 g of Achyranthes bidentata, 20 g of ginseng, 15 g of deer antler velvet, 15 g of Morinda root, 20 g of Curculigo root, 15 g of Psoralea seed, 20 g of Angelica, 10 g of Cornus fruit, and other TCM ingredients.
How to do it: Wash these ingredients slightly, dry them, and grind them into powder for consumption. This can improve the problem of testicular atrophy and low sperm quality, and also help prolong sexual activity time.
Zhuangyang Jianwei Tang (Yang-strengthening and Health-strengthening Soup):
It comprises 10g of ginseng, 20g of agarwood, 25g of Chinese yam, 30g of Canine Kidney, 30g of Eucommia bark, 20g of deer antler gelatin, 30g of Fo-Ti, 30g of Cistanche deserticola, and so on.
How to do it: First, clean the ingredients, soak them for half an hour (so that the efficacy can be better exerted), then put them into a pot to decoct, boil them over a high fire, and then turn to a low fire for about 30 minutes, which is suitable for poor sperm quality caused by kidney deficiency.
Shenrong Qiangshen Tang (Ginseng and Deer Antler Velvet Kidney-Supporting Decoction):
It contains 30 g of cooked Prepared rehmannia root, 30 g of Achyranthes root, 30 g of Bovine penis, 30 g of Cistanche deserticola, 25 g of Schisandra berry, 30 g of deer antler gelatin, 20 g of Chinese yam, 30 g of Epimedium, and 30 g of Psoralea fruit.
Moreover, Ginseng and deer antler velvet are also important components of this herbal soup. After cleaning the ingredients, they are directly boiled and taken. This soup can improve the problem of poor sexual quality and also promote the secretion of the testicles, helping to restore their functions.
Natural Herbal Remedy
The Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill, from Dr. Lee's clinic, is a good natural herbal remedy for orchitis. It is mild and has a stable curative effect, and can solve the problem of orchitis.
Its core effects cover clearing heat and toxic materials, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and it can remove pathogenic bacteria, relieve discomfort like testicular pain and fever, and accompany symptoms such as urination and perineal swelling.
At the same time, the Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill can improve local blood circulation, repair damaged testicular tissue, and protect testicular function.
As a natural herbal preparation, it is less irritating than Western medicine, suitable for long-term conditioning to consolidate the efficacy and avoid repeated inflammation. When taking it, it is necessary to follow the professional guidance of Dr. Li's clinic to adjust the dosage and cycle.
Reminder:
Testicular maintenance is a whole project; taking medicine alone is not enough. Lifestyle habits are the foundation. You should eat oysters, walnuts, and other zinc-rich foods at ordinary times to help supplement nutrition; avoid sitting for a long time, soaking in hot baths for a long time, and a high-temperature environment will damage sperm.
Also, doing aerobic exercise such as jogging three times a week, 30 minutes each time, can improve pelvic blood circulation and "supply oxygen" to the testicles.
Furthermore, if there is persistent pain and a testicular mass, we must seek medical treatment in time. Before using herbal medicine, it is best to consult a doctor, take it for a long time, and check liver and kidney function regularly. Safety is always the first priority.
Conclusion
In fact, male reproductive health is nothing to be ashamed of. Just like other parts of the body, testicles need careful care. Slowly conditioning with mild natural herbs, coupled with healthy lifestyle habits, can help the testicles maintain a good state, but also gives males greater peace of mind.
