Spermatorrhea
Spermatorrhea is a condition of excessive, accidental ejaculation. It is a recognized disorder in Traditional Chinese Medicine, in which certain patterns of involuntary ejaculation reflect problems with kidney qi. In Ayurvedic Medicine, Ashwagandha and Bala are used to treat this vata ailment. In Western medicine during the nineteenth century, spermatorrhea was regarded as a medical disorder with corrupting and devastating effects on the mind and body. The cure for spermatorrhea was regarded as enforced chastity and avoidance of masturbation, with circumcision sometimes being used as a treatment. Ejaculation is currently believed in Western medicine to be self-limiting, and incapable of causing ill effects, other than temporary tiredness and reduction of sexual desire in the individual concerned. In contrast, Traditional Chinese Medicine counts the production of semen as one of the biggest strains on jing.
