Men usually suffer from three different types of sexual dysfunction: problems in Ejaculation, Erectile dysfunction and lack of sexual desire. However, it is not always a physical problem; there may be psychological dimensions too. So, evaluation of the problem by a competent and qualified doctor is the first priority.

Such problems are more often than not caused by various lifestyle stress factors, like stress in workplace, stress in relations, etc. One needs a wholesome solution to address all the problems which are contributing to Sexual Dysfunction. In that perspective, Ayurveda can be a good choice.

In fact, Ayurveda has a separate chapter for Male Sexual Dysfunction and its treatment.

Ayurveda is often referred to as Ashtanga Ayurveda. It means that the knowledge of Ayurveda is compiled in 8 different parts. Some of these parts are diseases related to infants, healing of psychological problems, toxicology etc. The eighth part, known as Vrishya Chikitsa, deals with Sexual Dysfunction and its treatment protocol in detail. It is also known as the science of Aphrodisiacs and Virility.

Male Sexual Dysfunction: An Ayurvedic Insight
The Tenet of Tridasha: Vata, Pitta and Kapha are innate to Ayurveda. In order to stay healthy, virile and sexually active, there needs to be a balance in these three doshas. If there is an abnormal increase or decrease in any of these doshas, a person is likely to suffer. This can happen when there is a disequilibrium in the seven tissues of the body, also known as Dhatu. They are known as Rasa, Rakta, Meda, Mamsa, Majja, Asthi and Shukra. Among these, Shukra is the reproductive fluid or the semen. So, if there is a problem with Shukra, one can suffer from sexual dysfunction.

Vajikaran: The Ayurvedic Remedy For sexual dysfunction
The word Vajikaran alludes to the vigour of a horse. So, proper Ayurvedic remedy can help to achieve horse like sexual vigour. What sets it apart from modern medicine is that it prescribes a wholesome development in dispensation. If the directives are followed strictly, one can achieve good physique, strength, virility and sexual potency like an 8-year-old horse. However, Vajikaran is not just a set of medicines. It is a set of instructions regarding lifestyle changes, diet and medicinal formulations.

Doctors recommend sweet and dense foods like Peanuts, Butter, Red meat, etc. to people suffering from Sexual Dysfunction. These are nutritious foods, which also increase the Kapha Dosha of the body and thus increase Virility.

Conclusion
Ayurveda can treat Male Sexual Dysfunction comprehensively, but one needs to follow all the instructions, implement all the lifestyle changes, maintain all the dietary tips and consume all the Ayurveda medicines given by a doctor who is expert in Ayurveda.
