No erection - #323
Anil
My husband was diagnosed with chronic prostatitis. I drank everything, I was treated as the doctor prescribed. But there are no improvements at all. In short, there has been no sexual activity for more than 4 years. He doesn't want to go anywhere now because the doctor told him you're fine. The husband drinks. There is no strength to fight. I started having problems on my own due to the lack of a personal Life. What to do? Can I buy Viagra?

You're facing a difficult situation with your husband’s chronic prostatitis, which hasn't improved despite treatment, leading to over 4 years of no sexual intimacy and a strain on your relationship. His refusal to seek further help, combined with drinking, has worsened the situation, and you're now struggling personally.
Second Opinion: It’s worth consulting another urologist, as chronic prostatitis is hard to treat and sometimes requires different approaches.
Counseling: Couples therapy could help address the emotional impact and lack of intimacy, and individual therapy may assist with managing the stress and his drinking.
Alcohol Reduction: Reducing alcohol could improve both his prostatitis symptoms and his mood, which might help with his sexual desire and function.
Viagra: While Viagra might assist with erectile function, it won’t fix the root issues. Consult a doctor first, especially considering his alcohol use.
Self-care: It's important to address your own needs—seeking support for yourself could help you cope with the emotional strain.
Communication, medical guidance, and emotional support are key to moving forward

Chronic prostatitis, along with the emotional strain and alcohol consumption, can contribute to issues with erection and overall sexual health. In Ayurveda, such conditions are often linked to imbalances in Vata and weakened Shukra Dhatu (reproductive tissue). Instead of relying on short-term solutions like Viagra, Ayurveda focuses on addressing the root cause by improving overall vitality, reproductive strength, and balancing the doshas.
First, reducing alcohol consumption is crucial as it aggravates Vata and Pitta, which can further weaken sexual energy. I recommend incorporating Ayurvedic herbs such as Ashwagandha, Shilajit, and Kapikacchu, which are known to enhance vitality and sexual health by nourishing the Shukra Dhatu. A nourishing diet with warm, unctuous foods like ghee, milk, and almonds, along with stress-relief practices such as Abhyanga (oil massage), can support overall rejuvenation.
Additionally, therapies like Vajikarana (Ayurvedic aphrodisiac treatments) can help restore sexual strength and vitality. It’s important for your husband to seek guidance from an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized treatment plan to address both his physical and mental health. Communication and patience between both of you will also help in rebuilding intimacy.

Viagra, huh? It might be tempting since it promises quick results, but in the realm of Ayurveda, we always aim to get to the root cause instead of quick fixes. It sounds like the situation's been tough. Chronic prostatitis can affect one’s life in many ways, and it often calls for a holistic approach. Let's dive into some Ayurvedic insights.
First, about your husband's condition, prostatitis in Ayurveda could be related to an imbalance in the Vata dosha, which can cause inflammation and pain. Addressing it might require a few lifestyle tweaks. I'd recommend warming, nourishing foods; stuff like soups, stews, and good, old ghee is amazing for balancing Vata. Maybe try avoiding cold and dry foods for now.
Herbs can help too. Ashwagandha and Shatavari are often advised to support reproductive health and reduce stress. They're kinda like adaptogens that support overall vitality. You should look into getting them as a quality powder or capsules.
Another thing, alcohol can be a sneaky culprit here. Wondering, is he consuming a bit too much? It can aggravate Vata and Pitta dosha, causing more inflammation. Maybe cutting back a bit could make a difference.
Daily routines, or dinacharya as we call it, can offer stability. Simple routines like waking up and sleeping at the same time each day can profoundly calm Vata. Even short walks in nature could be grounding.
Since both you and he are affected by this, maybe consider couples' meditation or yoga? It’s about healing together. Pranayama or breathing exercises can support both mental and physical health.
Just a gentle reminder... If there's a significant impact on his health or mental wellbeing, seeking out a compassionate Ayurveda practitioner or counselor could provide an extra layer of support.
Quick fixes can be like band-aids — they cover the surface, but don't heal within. Maybe all these little changes will nudge things in a healing direction.
