Impotence is a condition in which a man cannot get an erection, or the degree of erection is insufficient, so that he cannot have a normal sex life despite his sexual desire.

Symptoms

  • Inability to achieve an erection

  • Insufficient degree of erection

  • Lack of sexual desire

The disorder can be divided into two categories: functional and organic impotence, with the former category accounting for about 85-90% and the cause being related to a variety of psychological factors. This category is also the main target of acupuncture treatment. The latter category is due to anatomical reasons, medications as well as other diseases. Acupuncture is very effective in treating functional impotence, and for some organic impotences, acupuncture also has some effectiveness. The overall efficacy rate is about 90%.

It is worth noting that acupuncture treatment accompanied by psychological treatment often makes it possible to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
