Doctors’ responses
In Ayurveda, premature ejaculation can be caused by an imbalance in the Vata and Pitta doshas, often related to stress, anxiety, and excessive stimulation. Since you’ve quit smoking and masturbation, your body is likely in the process of recalibrating, which takes time. To support this, you can take herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari, which are known to help with stamina, sexual health, and stress reduction. Additionally, incorporating regular meditation, pranayama (breathing exercises), and physical activity like yoga can help calm the mind and improve overall vitality. Diet also plays an important role; focus on warm, grounding foods like nuts, seeds, and whole grains, and avoid spicy or excessive alcohol. For immediate relief, using Brahmi or Safed Musli as an aphrodisiac can help improve sexual function. If the issue persists, consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner for a tailored treatment plan is advised.
Okay, let’s dive into this. It’s tough dealing with erectile dysfunction (ED) and premature ejaculation (PE), but you’re on the right track by quitting smoking and masturbating. Both can contribute to the issues you’re facing.
From an Ayurvedic perspective, we often look at these concerns through the lens of vata dosha imbalance, especially prana vata, which can lead to too much rush and excitement in the system. This can contrbute to PE. We also need to consider your agni, or digestive fire. If it’s weak, that might be affecting your sexual health, too.
First up, Ashwagandha. It’s a major player for lowering stress and enhancing stamina. Try taking about 300-500 mg of Ashwagandha twice a day, preferably with warm milk—it helps absorb the goodness into your system.
Then there’s diet! Make sure you’re eating nourishing stuff, not going to bed on an empty stomach or eating a lot of spicy/junk food. Think whole grains, good fats, and vegetables. Ghee is actually amazing, trust me on this one—it supports ojas (vital energy) and you wanna be strong there.
Exercise? Absolutely. Regular physical activity can do wonders, even just brisk walking. Helps to balance vata by grounding the body. Pranayama breathing exercises can also be super helpful for calming nervous system.
You could also try Sheelajit, which is known for boosting libido and increasing vigour. But make sure to consult with someone before using it, since it might not be ideal for every constitution.
Avoid cold and dry foods – these aggravate vata! Warm meals filled with spices like ginger, cumin, and turmeric are your best bet. Hydration’s important too.
Timing is big: Consider having intercourse when you’re naturally more relaxed, like the early morning. Less pressure might help.
If anxiety or mental stress creeps in more than sometimes, that’s another discussion. Sometimes a mind that overthinks affects the body. Working on mind relaxation techniques can support your overall process.
Don’t stress too much, healing takes time, be patient with yourself. If the situation persists, it might be a good idea to actually consult a healthcare professional in person, maybe someone specializing in both Ayurveda and modern medicine, to get a more thorough assessment.
