1、 When taking aphrodisiacs, it is important to avoid single acting alone and instead use multiple medications in combination. For example, whether it is Epimedium, Kidney Tonifying and Yang Strengthening Cistanche deserticola, Morinda officinalis, deer antler, nine fragrant insects, hippocampus, etc., they should not be taken alone. Long term fixed use of a certain type of aphrodisiac can be harmful to the human body, because a single drug sex hormone can inhibit the body's own secretion of male hormones, causing testicular atrophy, decreasing sperm production capacity, weakening sexual function, and endless consequences.
2、 When taking aphrodisiacs, one should supplement yin in a timely manner. The traditional Chinese medicine believes that yin and yang complement each other, and strengthening yang will inevitably damage yin. Prolonged strengthening of yang can lead to yin decline. After the imbalance of yin and yang, it will naturally damage the kidney meridian. Kidney governs water, and depletion of kidney water affects a person's lifespan. For this reason, experienced traditional Chinese medicine practitioners guide patients who do not engage in sexual activity to take aphrodisiacs, and at the same time, they will prescribe additional yin nourishing drugs to alleviate various adverse reactions caused by aphrodisiacs.
3、 When taking aphrodisiacs, attention should also be paid to seasonal changes. Different seasons should adopt different medication methods for aphrodisiacs: winter belongs to the "collection season" and can be mainly used for tonifying, with both aphrodisiacs and nourishing yin; Appropriate reduction should be made in spring and autumn seasons; Summer weather is hot and dry, it's best to stop using aphrodisiacs.
If the sexual life is satisfactory and normal, and there are no physical problems, tonifying the kidneys and strengthening the yang, then there is no need to take aphrodisiacs or adopt various aphrodisiac methods, especially when you violate the principles of sexual health, which will ultimately bring even more serious harm.
