●Yes you can,i suggest some medicine for you problem ● Sarvakalpa Kwath and Mulethi Kwath: Mix both herbs. Take a teaspoon of each and boil it in 400 ml of water. When 100 ml of water remains, strain it and drink it on an empty stomach in the morning and evening. ● Kanchanar Guggulu, Vridhivadhika Vati, Arogyavardhini Vati: Take one tablet of each of these three tablets three times a day, half an hour after breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with lukewarm water ●Ashwagandha Churna, Gokshura churna ,Safed musali churna , Kaunch churna,Vidarikand churna. Mix all and make 60 packs and take it with warm water 2 times a day after food ● Shilajit + suvarna bhasma with warm water at bed time Do massage with bala Ashwagandha , almond or neem oil

Your symptoms are actually interconnected, so treatment must be careful and coordinated — not random self-medication. –When thyroid is low: Metabolism slows down Nerve signals become weaker Hormone balance (including testosterone) gets disturbed -This directly affects: Sexual function Energy levels Muscle tone (including bladder muscles) 2) Low thyroid can cause: Reduced libido (interest in sex) Poor erection quality Delayed or weak response Why? It lowers testosterone indirectly Affects nitric oxide (needed for erection) Slows blood circulation - So your ED may not be just a sexual issue—it may start from thyroid imbalance 3) Hypothyroidism can also: Reduce bladder contraction strength Slow nerve response to urination This leads to: Delay in starting urine Weak stream - Even without prostate issues, thyroid can cause similar symptoms -------Rx- 1)Aimil Neeri Tablet 2 tablets, twice daily after meals 2)Aimil Semento Capsule 1 capsule, twice daily 3)Aimil Shilajit Tablets 1 tablet, twice daily 4)Aimil Ashwagandha Capsule 1 capsule at night --------- Important Continue Levothyroxine (empty stomach, morning) Keep 30–45 min gap from other meds

Managing multiple health concerns like a prostate issue, erectile dysfunction (ED), and thyroid health requires a careful, integrated approach. Since you are already taking Euthyrox (Levothyroxine) for your thyroid, maintaining hormonal balance is key, as thyroid levels can directly impact both urinary function and sexual health. ​Regarding your question about Varuna (Crataeva nurvala), here is a breakdown of how it relates to your symptoms and current medication: ​1. Varuna and Prostate Health (Grade I BPH) ​Varuna is a well-regarded herb in Ayurveda for urinary tract health. It is traditionally used as a “litholytic” (breaking stones) and a diuretic. ​Mechanism: It may help improve the tone of the bladder muscle and reduce residual urine volume. ​Suitability: For Grade I prostate enlargement (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia), it is often used to help with a weak stream. However, it is usually more effective when combined with other herbs like Punarnava or Gokshura. ​2. Varuna and Erectile Dysfunction ​The Reality: Varuna is not a primary treatment for erectile dysfunction. It focuses on the renal and urinary systems rather than reproductive or vascular health. ​Alternative: For ED, Ayurveda typically looks toward Vajikarana (aphrodisiac) herbs like Ashwagandha, Safed Musli, or Gokshura. Gokshura is particularly interesting here because it has benefits for both the prostate and libido. ​3. Compatibility with Euthyrox (Thyroid Medicine) ​No Direct Interaction: There are no well-documented, major “drug-herb” interactions between Varuna and Levothyroxine (Euthyrox). ​The “Absorption” Rule: Thyroid medication is very sensitive. If you start any Ayurvedic supplement, you must take it at least 2 to 4 hours after your Euthyrox. Taking them too close together can interfere with how your body absorbs the thyroid hormone.
