At age 62, the loss of sensation is due to Vata degeneration and restricted blood flow. We must stimulate the nerves to restore sensitivity.
Medicines 1 Vanari Kalpa (Kapikachhu): 1 teaspoon mixed with warm milk, twice daily after food. 2 Ashwagandha Churna: Add ½ teaspoon to the milk above. 3 Chandraprabha Vati: 2 tablets twice daily after food.
External Therapy Shri Gopal Tailam: Apply 5-6 drops on the penis and massage gently every night. This oil is specifically designed to cure numbness and restore nerve sensitivity.
Lifestyle Advice Ashwini Mudra (Kegels): Contract and relax your anal/pelvic muscles rhythmically (like holding back urine). Do this 50 times daily to pump blood into the pelvic nerves. Eat Dates and Almonds daily. Add 1 tsp Ghee to your lunch to lubricate dry nerves.

Hello I can understand that loss of sensation in penis is very stressful to you. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊
YOUR CONCERN
You are experiencing: - Reduced / absent sensation in the penis - Duration: 2 months - Age: 62 years - Existing medicines: Ecosprin Blood pressure medicine (25 mg) Thyronorm 50 mcg - No diabetes - No mention of pain, discharge, or ulcers
AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING
According to Ayurveda, penile sensation is mainly governed by: - Vata dosha (especially Apana & Vyana Vata) - Majja dhatu & Shukra dhatu - Proper nerve nourishment and blood circulation
The condition at your age is mostly due to: - Vata vriddhi (age-related nerve dryness) - Reduced pelvic circulation - Long-term medication effect - Thyroid imbalance contributing to nerve sluggishness
This situation is more or less the same as Vata-pradhana Klaibya / Shukra-Vaha Srotas Dushti, where initially sensation reduces more than erection.
The good news: Since the duration is only 2 months, the reversal is possible with Rasayana and Vata-shamana therapy in time.

With regards to Dr prasad
Loss of sensation in the penis could be related to various factors such as medication side effects or circulatory issues. Considering your age and existing medications for blood pressure and thyroid, any Ayurvedic remedy should be chosen cautiously with your doctor’s supervision.
Primarily, focus on promoting healthy circulation. Incorporating light exercises like walking can improve blood flow, aiding in sensation recovery. It’s essential in Ayurveda to ensure that your vata dosha is balanced, as imbalances might contribute to nerve-related issues.
Include warming foods like cooked vegetables, soups, and whole grains that stabilize vata. Avoid too much caffeine or raw foods which can aggravate vata. Herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari may support nervous system health, but consult with your health care provider before introducing them, given your current medications.
Gently massaging the lower back and pelvic area with warm sesame oil may help improve circulation and nerve function. Practicing relaxation techniques such as meditation or gentle Pranayama can assist in reducing stress and improving overall circulatory health.
Hydration is also important; water properly aids in maintaining good circulation. Drink adequate quantities of warm water throughout the day.
These steps are supportive but given the nature of your concern, it’s essential to have a medical evaluation even if you find some relief through these Ayurvedic suggestions. Loss of sensation could signal something needing specific attention, so ongoing communication with your healthcare provider is vital. Always prioritize medical advice, particularly due to your comprehensive health background.
