Beware of the side effects of aphrodisiacs
Heart and liver damage due to "miraculous" aphrodisiacs
Mr. Zhao, 35, suffered from severe erectile dysfunction and took a variety of drugs. The treatment was ineffective and I was going to the hospital for penile prosthesis implantation. The day before the operation, he was recommended to buy and use "XX No. 1" which was said to have a mysterious formula of traditional Chinese medicine. After Mr. Zhao took it orally, the effect was surprisingly good, and he had a long-lost satisfying sex life that night. Early the next morning, Mr. Zhao couldn't wait to go through the discharge procedures and went home to continue receiving treatment with this "miraculous" aphrodisiac. But three months later, Mr. Zhao came to the hospital again. At this time, he looked haggard and complained of frequent headaches, palpitation, fatigue and nausea. After examination, it was found that he had myocardial ischemia and liver function damage. The doctor asked Mr. Zhao to take the "miracle" aphrodisiac he was taking to an authoritative clinical pharmacology institution for ingredient identification. The results were shocking. It turned out that the main ingredient of the aphrodisiac drug Mr. Zhao took was counterfeit sildenafil. The dose of the drug was four times the normal safe dose. Moreover, due to the rough production process, the drug contained many impurities. Because this drug exceeds the safe dose many times, the drug effect will be stronger than regular drugs, but the toxic and side effects will also increase exponentially. Its production is rough, the purity of the medicine is not enough, and it is also very harmful to the body. Mr. Zhao's myocardial ischemia and liver function damage were caused by this "miraculous" drug.
Most aphrodisiacs are not medicines
Aphrodisiacs refer to proprietary Chinese medicines that are designed to treat impotence and premature ejaculation. The traditional medicine of the motherland has left many valuable legacies for the diagnosis and treatment of sexual dysfunction. Traditional Chinese medicine's syndrome differentiation and treatment of sexual dysfunction includes consultation (to clarify the diagnosis of impotence diseases and to differentiate between organic and functional diseases), inspection, smelling and incision, and the four diagnoses must be combined and analyzed comprehensively. Impotence in traditional Chinese medicine is called erectile dysfunction (ED for short) in Western medicine. Western medicine's diagnosis and treatment of ED relies on comprehensive analysis and multiple treatment methods. The main treatment methods include psychological treatment, drug treatment and surgical treatment. The treatment of sexual dysfunction in traditional Chinese and Western medicine requires clear causes, active correction of risk factors, and comprehensive treatment. Therefore, patients with sexual dysfunction should use medications correctly under the guidance of a doctor.
Most of the many aphrodisiac products currently on the market are not medicines, but are approved as health products or foods, and some are even produced illegally. Patients use these products blindly, and their safety is worrying. These products are divided into the following categories:
Penis enlargement products
Advertisements claim that they can enlarge and thicken the penis and improve sexual function, but most of these products are gonadal hormones and Androgen. Normal men's receptors that promote penis growth have been closed when they reach adulthood. Just like the epiphyseal line is closed and the height will not increase, these products will not produce the effect of penis enlargement and thickening. On the contrary, excessive use can damage the male reproductive endocrine system and even cause serious complications such as sudden cardiac death and osteoporosis.
Aphrodisiac products
Aphrodisiac drugs are aimed at patients with sexual dysfunction. Use by normal people will not enhance sexual ability, and may even increase toxic and side effects. Such products are usually added with illegally produced *analogues, and their product purity and dosage often exceed normal standards several times. The effect may be good at first, but the toxic side effects will increase exponentially with long-term use.
