how to increase sexual stamina - #37290
I am really worried about this thing lately... not sure how to say it, but I’ve been struggling with, well, how to increase sexual stamina. It’s kinda embarrassing honestly. A few weeks ago, I was at this party, spent some time talking to this amazing woman, and when it came time to, you know, be intimate, I felt so unprepared! I was just fine before but it felt like all my energy just... disappeared. It's like I had this rush of nerves, or maybe it was just fear, and I couldn’t keep up. I’ve tried to think maybe it’s something I'm eating or maybe my workouts. I've been pretty regular at the gym, but doesn't seem to help. Sometimes, I feel exhausted just from a few minutes and, man, that’s super frustrating. I read a bit about herbs and things in Ayurveda that say they could help with how to increase sexual stamina and all that, but how do I know what works? Like, should I try ashwagandha or something else? I honestly can’t remember all the names, and I get confused. I’m just looking for advice or tips—real experiences that can really help someone like me. Any ideas on how to increase sexual stamina without turning my life upside down?

Doctors’ responses
Increasing sexual stamina through Ayurveda can be approached holistically by addressing both physical health and mental well-being. Let’s start with understanding what might affect stamina. According to Ayurveda, sexual vigor is primarily influenced by the balance of the body’s energies or doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—and the quality of one’s ojas, which is vital energy and essence.
An imbalance in Vata dosha can result in anxiety and stress, which could be impacting your stamina. A balanced routine is crucial. Ensure you have regular, adequate sleep and incorporate stress-reduction techniques like meditation. Ashwagandha is indeed a powerful adaptogen that can help. Take 1-2 teaspoons of ashwagandha powder in warm milk daily an hour before bed. This may improve energy levels and calmness over time.
Your diet also plays a significant role. Include foods that nourish reproductive tissues. Fresh fruits, nuts (especially almonds and walnuts), and dairy like milk and ghee can boost your energy reserves. Avoid excessively spicy, fried, or processed foods which may deplete stamina and affect digestion – crucial for physical performance.
Routine exercises like yoga or brisk walking for at least 30-45 minutes daily are helpful, but don’t overexert. Yoga poses like Bhujangasana (cobra pose) and Vajrasana (diamond pose) can also positively affect strength and endurance.
Stay hydrated and consider herbs like Shatavari, which supports reproductive health, taken as a supplement or mixed into your daily diet.
Monitor your progress and adjust as needed; changes take time and consistency is key. If the problem persists, consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for a detailed evaluation of your dosha balance and tailored advice. Remember, what works for others may require tweaks, so listen to your body’s signals and make adjustments that feel right for you.
