Herbal Consultation by E-Mail


Traditional Chinese Medicine views the prostate gland as part of the Kidney System

Initial Examination by a specialist is absolutely required to detect or rule out prostate cancer.

Chinese herbal treatment for prostate conditions can be quite helpful when the correct herbal drugs are prescribed. Diagnosis is best made by a trained herbologist according to the Four Examinations. If professional help is absolutely unavailable, the following is a general guideline to discriminate between excess type (acute prostate inflamation or infection) and deficient type (benign prostate hypertrophy, BPH)

 

Causes of Prostate Problems

Excess Type - Acute Prostatitis - Damp Heat in the Lower Jiao

Can include pain, burning urination, dark urine, pus, blood, or strong odor.  The pulse is often rapid.

Caused by pathogenic invasion such as bacteria or virus.

Treated with herbs that clear heat, and clean toxins, and are normally used for infections and inflammations.

 

Deficiency Type - Chronic Prostate Swelling (BPH) - Deficiency of Kidney and/or Spleen

Can include pressure, distention, or a "bearing down sensation",  frequent urination, or dribbling urination  the pulse is often slow, weak or deep.

Caused by a deficiency; most commonly Kidney or Spleen Yang Deficiency.  Those with Spleen Yang deficiency may also have weak digestion or loose stool.  Those with Kidney Yang Deficiency may also experience low back weakness, low sexual desire, feeling cold or tired. 

Herbal medicine are used to Tonify Kidney, Tonify Spleen, Astringe the Kidney
