How to regain energy after 10 years of masturbation addiction? - #52681

Hi! I’m an assistant to the Ask Ayurveda doctors. I’ve carefully reviewed your question.

I will explain your symptoms through the Ayurvedic perspective so you understand what is happening in your body as a whole.

In Ayurveda, excessive indulgence in activities like masturbation can lead to an imbalance in the vital energies, particularly affecting the Ojas, which is considered the essence of vitality and immunity. Over time, this can deplete your physical and mental energy, leading to fatigue and a decrease in overall vitality.

Your symptoms suggest a potential Vata imbalance due to the depletion of Ojas, resulting in fatigue and possibly low libido. This imbalance may also cause irregular energy patterns and mental unrest, impacting your daily life and health.

Ayurveda views this as a systemic issue, where the depletion of energy affects both the mind and body. The focus would be on restoring balance through diet, lifestyle changes, and possibly herbal support to rejuvenate and rebuild your vitality.

To give doctors a precise and effective treatment plan, your answers to the questions below are essential. Without this information, the recommendations will be more general and less accurate.
