Sexual Dysfunctions and Ayurveda


Erectile Dysfunction


Erectile dysfunction affects the lives of million’s men and their partners. Erectile dysfunction (ED) or impotence is the inability of a man to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for his sexual needs or the needs of his partner. This means even though a man has a strong desire to perform sexual act with a cooperative partner, he cannot perform sexual act because of looseness (absence of erection) of his phallus (penis). Even if he performs sexual act with his determined efforts he does not get erection and gets afflicted with tiredness, perspiration and frustration to perform sex.

Causes of Erectile Dysfunction
Physiological problems:
Erection requires a sequence of events. Erectile dysfunction can occur when any of the events is disturbed. Nerve impulses in the brain, spinal column, around the penis and response in muscles, fibrous tissues, veins, and arteries in and around the Corpora cavernosa constitute this sequence of events. Injury to any of these parts that are part of this sequence (nerves, arteries, smooth muscles, fibrous tissue) can cause ED.

Lowered level of testosterone hormone:
The primary male hormone is testosterone. After the age of 40 years, a man’s testosterone level gradually declines. About 5% of men that doctors see for erectile dysfunction have low testosterone levels. In many of these cases, low testosterone causes lower sexual interest, not erectile dysfunction. The whole male body responds to testosterone.

Overexertion - physically and mentally : 
Working for long hours in the office, mental stress at office and home, short temper tendency and insufficient sleep cause erectile dysfunction.

These causes are explained in Ayurveda as “shoka chintaa, bhaya, traasaat....” which means that erectile dysfunction occurs due to grief, fear, anxiety and terror.
Strained relationship with sexual partner: Erectile dysfunction also occurs when there is a disliking towards sexual partner. Ayurveda describes this as “naarinaamarasamjnatwaat...........” means disliking for women.

Diseases that cause erectile dysfunction:
Neurological disorders, hypothyroidism, Parkinson’s disease, anemia, depression, arthritis, endocrine disorders, diabetes and diseases related to cardiovascular the system also become reasons for erectile dysfunction.

According to Ayurveda the diseases which cause erectile dysfunction are “Hritpaandurogatamakakaamalashrama...” Heart diseases, anemia, asthma, liver disorders, and tiredness. Apart from these the imbalances in tridoshas also cause erectile dysfunction.

Consumption of medicines, drugs and tobacco:
Using anti-depressants, tranquilizers and antihypertensive medicines for a long time, addiction to tobacco especially smoking, excessive consumption of alcohol, addiction to cocaine, heroin and marijuana cause erectile dysfunction.

In Ayurveda texts these causes have been said in brief as “rukshamannapaanam tathoushadham” - “dry food, drinks and medicines” cause erectile dysfunction.

Trauma to pelvic region: 
Accidental injury to the pelvic region and surgeries for the conditions of prostate, bladder, colon or rectal area may lead to erectile dysfunction.

Other reasons:
Obesity, prolonged bicycle riding, past history of sexual abuse and old age also causes erectile dysfunction. Ayurveda describes the cause of impotence or erectile dysfunction due to old age as diminution of - tissue elements, strength, energy, the span of life, inability to take nourishing food, physical and mental fatigue leads to impotence.

 Erectile dysfunction (primary and secondary impotence): 

Primary impotence refers to a man who has never been able to maintain an erection for purposes of intercourse either with a female or a male, vaginally or rectally. Familial, societal, and intrapsychic factors contribute to primary impotence. Some of the more common influences are
(1) Performance anxiety
(2) Seductive relationship with a mother
(3) Religious beliefs in sex as a sin
(4) Traumatic initial failure
(5) Anger toward women and
(6) Fear of impregnating a woman.

In secondary impotence, a man cannot maintain or perhaps even get an erection, but has succeeded at having either vaginal or rectal intercourse at least one time in his life. The occasional failure to get an erection is not to be confused with secondary impotence. 

Rapid ejaculation: 
Rapid ejaculation is the most common dysfunction and it is the easiest to treat. Premature ejaculation can be defined as the inability to delay ejaculation long enough for the woman to orgasm fifty percent of the time or as the inability to delay ejaculation for thirty seconds to a minute after the penis enters the vagina.

Retarded ejaculation (ejaculatory incompetence): 
Ejaculatory incompetence is the opposite of premature ejaculation and refers to the inability to ejaculate inside the vagina. Men with this difficulty may be able to maintain an erection for 30 minutes to an hour, but because of psychological concerns about ejaculating inside a woman, are not able to achieve orgasm. One of the reasons this dysfunction goes undetected is because the male’s partner is satisfied and indeed often is able to achieve several orgasms. Most of these men can readily achieve orgasm through masturbation. Many factors contribute to this condition, some of which are religious restrictions, fear of impregnating, and lack of physical interest or active dislike for the female partner. In addition such psychological factors as ambivalence toward one’s partner, suppressed anger, fear of abandonment or obsessional preoccupation also play a significant role in developing retarded ejaculation.

Treatment of Erectile Dysfunction

Psychotherapy: 
Decreasing anxiety associated with intercourse, with psychologically based treatment, helps to cure ED. The patient’s partner can help with the techniques, which include gradual development of intimacy and stimulation. Such techniques also can help relieve anxiety when ED from physical causes is being treated. The same treatment is illustrated in Ayurveda. It has been said, “A woman who understands a man and is liked by him, along with erotic environment act as best aphrodisiac.”

Diet and nutrition control:
Nutrition can also have a lot to do with sexual vitality, which clearly decreases with malnourishment. The focus of the diet is on antiaging and a healthy cardiovascular system. A wholesome diet low in fat and high in fiber and complex carbohydrates is a good thing to begin. Any diet (and lifestyle) that maintains good circulation and normal weight and contains high-vitality fresh foods will lead to better sexual function.


Vajikarana therapy in Ayurveda:
Charaka has mentioned numerous herbal remedies for erectile dysfunction which contain natural aphrodisiacs. These preparations enhance one’s potency by leaps and bounds by increasing the span of erection, hardness and prevent premature ejaculation and rejuvenating the male reproductive system. The total treatment for impotence is called as Vajikarana therapy in Ayurveda. 
A third kind of tonic herb, closely allied with Rasayanas, is what is called in Ayurveda - Vajikarana. A vaji is a horse or stallion. These are substances that give the power or vitality of a horse, particularly the horse’s great capacity for sexual activity. More commonly, one could call them “aphrodisiacs”. Vajikaranas reinvigorate the body by reinvigorating the sexual organs.
The semen or reproductive tissue (the Ayurvedic concept includes both male and female reproductive tissues) is the essence of all the dhatus, the cream of all the tissue elements in the body. It contains the power to create life. This means not only the capacity to bring a new life into existence, to create a child, but also to renew one’s life, to return our cells to the vigor of youth.

Numerous herbal preparations are mentioned in Ayurveda to treat ED or impotence. Some of these are Garlic, Bhanga, Orchis mascula, root extracts of Bombax malabaricum and Amaranthus adscendens, Phalagrita, powdered root of Albizzia lebbek, Saffron, nutmeg extract, pepper, clove and gandhak. Most of these agents are used in combinations. 

Garlic The garlic or lasan consists of ripe bulbs of the Allium sativum Linnbelonging to the family Liliaceae and contains not less than 0.1% allicin.(5) Alongwith several uses of garlic, its cloves are used as a vegetable to treat preliminary stages of impotency. Traditionally Lasun chatni or Lasun dal alongwith ghee is taken to increase sexual power. It is reported that garlic can exert some of its therapeutic properties by increasing NO production in the body.garlic can be used as a better substitute of synthetic drugs for erectile dysfunction and there is a possibility to treat this disease with a natural product based preparation.

Bhanga 
Cannabis can improve sexual function in some patients affected by conditions or symptoms such as depression, anxiety disorder and pain.One of the possible mechanisms is attributed to the endocannabinoid system through the binding of receptors in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus which regulates erectile function and sexual behavior of males  

Orchis mascula
 In Ayurveda, Salep Orchid has traditionally been used as an aphrodisiac and nervine tonic. The  tubers of Orchid contain bitter principals and volatile oil, which give the flower its key therapeutic properties. 






Amaranthus adscendens, 
Phalagrita, powdered root of Albizzia lebbek,
Saffron
nutmeg extract, pepper
clove
gandhak. Most of these agents are used in combinations. 

Local Application
Local application of Jaiphal, Lavanga, Pista and Nirgundi on the penis has been claimed to increase vascularity and contractility

HIV PEP treatment, also known as post-exposure prophylaxis, is a highly effective method to prevent HIV infection after potential exposure. It involves taking a combination of antiretroviral medications for a duration of 28 days. The best HIV PEP treatment is determined by considering various factors, such as the individual's risk level, the type of exposure, and the specific circumstances. The most commonly prescribed medications for HIV PEP include tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and emtricitabine (FTC), which are taken in combination with other drugs. These medications work by inhibiting the replication of the virus, reducing the chances of it establishing a permanent infection. It is crucial to seek medical attention promptly after a potential exposure to ensure the best possible outcome. Remember, HIV PEP treatment is not a substitute for practicing safe sex and taking other preventive measures to avoid HIV transmission. For mor information.
