Sexual exhaustion reflects the emptiness of your parasympathetic nervous system and its associated organs, from your head down to your bottom. Your Chi associated with the bioelectric level of the parasympathetic nervous system is very weak. The Chi Level is a mirror of the bioelectric level because each Acupuncture Vessel interfaces with the parasympathetic nerve in the bioelectric cell of each organ. This interface allows us to use the Acupuncture Vessel and points to analyze the function of the corresponding organ.
Here are the symptoms reflected by your systems:
• Fatigue => liver/adrenal cortexes: insufficient testosterone/DHEA; over-conversion of dopamine to epinephrine due to a lack of serotonin
• Eye sore or blue vision => visual nerves: Insufficient Growth Hormone/ testosterone/ DHEA/ acetylcholine/ dopamine.
• Easy to sweat => kidneys: Insufficient DHEA to stabilize the kidneys' renal action; a lack of acetylcholine and over-production of epinephrine in the adrenal medulla that promotes sympathetic nervous function!
• Tiredness and stress => adrenal cortexes, liver, and testes: Insufficient testosterone and DHEA, insufficient acetylcholine, dopamine and serotonin in the brain.
Over-masturbation and over-ejaculation will melt down the brain's acetylcholine, dopamine and serotonin systems. The brain's acetylcholine and parasympathetic systems, which power the liver function for production the essential enzymes for hormonal and neurotransmitters syntheses, are empty.
If you have pain in your sex organs and maybe groins and tailbone area, you have a severe deficiency of DHEA and androstenedione in the hormone receptors of the pelvic cavity.
Case Study - I indulged in high frequency masturbation and I ejaculate sometimes twice a day (7- 14 times a week). How do I "clock" my endocrine function and how do I find out what my endocrine cycle is?
It seems that you are addicted to this indulgent art. You have trained your prostate's sympathetic nerve to fire up your ejaculation that way by masturbation. Our Autonomic Nervous Function can be trained to react to mind action and five senses in certain patterns. Your hands automatically react to offend other's hand action. Your stomach will feel hungry in each regular mealtime. You have trained your prostate to ejaculate in certain times and frequencies by masturbation.
To cure sexual dysfunction, I encourage loving couples to have 10-20 minute morning intercourse without ejaculation. But, this practice is limited by the availability of the hGH and DHEA in the bloodstream. When these two hormone levels are too low, you can only elevate a very limit amount of testosterone in your body. Ancient Taoists use the plant hormones in the tonic herbs to boost the hGH and DHEA levels in the bloodstream to achieve rejuvenation.
Don't work too hard on your penile shaft or you may damage it. I have seen many cases of penile damage due to wild masturbation or penile exercises. Massage it gently. Use the Ballooning method to prevent premature ejaculation or ejaculation urgency. In this way, you can preserve more 'Jing" as well. However, when you have more "Jing", your endocrine system will receive a negative feedback signal of testosterone overloading to slow itself down. On the other hand, when you over-ejaculate, the bioelectric level in your central nervous system becomes too low to support your endocrine function. The best way to optimize your ejaculation frequency is to clock your endocrine function and to find out your endocrine cycling. If you ejaculate according to your endocrine cycling, it will promote your endocrine function to produce more "Jing" for you.
Your endocrine cycle can be clocked in two ways: the frequency of your wet dream, or the frequency of your natural sleep pattern. I prefer the natural sleep pattern. When you have excessive testosterone in the bloodstream, you will sleep less and cannot have a good sleep. If you clock the duration of your natural sleep, you will find your endocrine cycle. A deep sleep promotes secretion of hGH, DHEA, testosterone and estrogen. You must have a deep sleep every day to calm your "Shen", preserve your "Jing", and recharge your 'Chi."
When you are young, you can afford to ejaculate as much as you want. The problem is that ejaculation consumes not only testosterone and bioelectric energy in the prostate nerves, but also hGH, DHEA and bioelectric energy stored in the parasympathetic nervous division of other organs such as the heart, lung, liver, kidneys, pituitary, adrenal glands, eyes, ears, nose, etc. The parasympathetic bioelectricity is the bias potential for sensing and actuating each organ. It also provides the action potential for the sympathetic nervous function to act and react to the external offense.
The parasympathetic bioelectricity (DC potential) is "Yin Chi" and the sympathetic bioelectricity (Pulsed Action Potential, DC + AC voltage) is "Yang Chi" in the Martial Art theory. Yin Chi flows in Yin-type Vessels in the front body to balance the bioelectricity stored in each associated organ and Yang Chi in Yang-type Vessels in the back body to balance the bioelectricity stored in the associated organ for performing "Fight or Flight" action.
The Chi in the water path (spine) will recharge the parasympathetic nervous division, while the Chi in the fire pathway will recharge the Central Nervous System to enhance the pituitary and
endocrine functions for the DHEA and Testosterone hormone burst and burning. That, in turn, supercharges both parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous division.
Traditional Taoists would like to equally channel their sexual energy into both the fire and water pathways for more "Jing" - sexual power, and longevity, with help of tonic herbal supplements. Historically, Taoists lived longer than Buddhism monks and nuns. One assumption was that it is very difficult for men and women to live longer without properly draining sexual power - the fire in the Kidney and Liver Vessels - this is what monk and nuns have missed.
Taoism believes that sexual orgasm by the harmonic coupling of both sexes will prolong life. Sexual orgasm extinguishes the "Excessive" fire in the Liver and Kidney Vessels leading to a good sleep for promoting hGH, DHEA and testosterone secretion, reactivates the endocrine function to supercharge the Central Nervous System and its parasympathetic channel. The condition for the benefit of sexual orgasm is that you must have "Excessive" fire (or hormones) to extinguish (or drain), which means the excessive testosterone (more than an optimal level for your organ to properly function) must be discharged through intercourse. In fact, intercourse itself performs the supercharge of the nervous system through the testosterone burning across two bodies and assist the sexual energy channeling from the CV (the sea of Yin) to GV (the master of Yang) across the acupuncture points CV-1 and GV-1.
However, when the bioelectric level in the Central Nervous System (CNS) is low, the CNS lose its ability to activate the endocrine system, the patients become depressed or sexually exhausted. When there is an excessive testosterone in the bloodstream, the pituitary gets a negative feedback signal to slow down endocrine function. To elevate the "Excessive" fire for more sexual power without generating the negative feed signal that slows the pituitary/brain function down, Taoists have used the tonic herbs to enhance the nervous, cardiovascular, liver and endocrine function. You have to break the masturbation cycle to re-establish a new, harmless cycle. After you masturbate to ejaculate, you must massage the groins and perineum to increase the local blood circulation and disperse the excessive DHT (the end product of testosterone burning) in the prostate. DHT is very stimulating. If the excessive DHT resides in the prostate, your prostate is still being swollen or temporarily enlarged for another masturbation and ejaculation. If you drain it, your prostate will return to the normal in few hours and the prostate ejaculation control nerve will cool down. Eating more vegetables/fruits, soy products, beans, nuts and seeds will help the prostate nerve stay calm for reduction of both ejaculation urgency and frequency.
If you want to "masturbate" to increase your "Jing", you should massage your penile base/footing, groins and pubis, instead of rubbing your penis shaft near the glans. If you do so for 10-20 minutes with the anal breathing your sexual urgency will go away. Of course, it is impossible for you to kick away your sexual urgency every time when the Liver and Kidney fires are burning. In this case, you can ejaculate. Excessive physical exercise, which will consume a lot of testosterone, is another way to break the masturbation pattern. The best way to break the masturbation pattern is to combine both methods. First, practice the massage method to reduce sexual urgency and then go for an excessive exercise. Remember, Shaolin meditation and martial art are used to knock down the sexual urgency of the monks!
Over-masturbation with ejaculation will deplete your neurochemicals and hormones that are supposed to help your tissues (including your prostate and penis), joints, ligaments and muscles to produce the relaxation and elasticity hormone Prostaglandin E-1 (PGE-1).
Over-masturbation also sets your body on sympathetic fire - the excessive production of the stress hormones adrenalin and Cortisol. A high level of adrenalin in your blood stream will also block the PGE-1 production, resulting in body pains or cramps. A lack of PGE-1 in your body will make the tissues become rigid and fragile. That is why you get penile pain or soreness when you have
an erection. If you may experience tissues-tearing pains or cramps if you stretch or bend your tissues, muscles, joints or ligaments. If you attempt to "exercise", stretch or bend your penis when your PGE-1 in the penile spongy tissues is too low, you will damage the penile tissues and nerves. As a result, the penile exercises, stretching or bending give you nothing but impotence, a deformed or crooked penis, or penile varicose and spider veins.
You may wonder why your physical exercise teachers want you to warm your body before you perform violent exercises. The reason is to produce sufficient PGE-1 to "lubricate" your muscles and joints. Can you do the penile exercises without PGE-1?
Particularly, the penile spongy tissues, which are not muscles, are so delicate that they cannot bear too much external stresses or loads. There are no muscles there for you to exercise. You have to stop ejaculation and forget the existence of your penis for a while. To stimulate the PGE-2 production in your penile spongy tissues for healing, use a warm towel to wrap it upon the morning wake-up call when your hormone level is high, your stress level is low, and your parasympathetic nervous functions are very active.
Stress hormone gives you pain in the shoulders and neck; Deficiency of DHEA and testosterone triggers your low-back pain. Over-production of stress hormone, when the sympathetic nervous function is persistently over-riding the parasympathetic nervous function, will result in DHEA deficiency and, then, sexual dysfunction and chronic health problems.
If you are very stressful, your brain's dopamine system and sympathetic nervous system (the Yang Chi) drain out the brain's juice dopamine to your adrenal medulla, where dopamine is converted to norepinephrine (also known as non-adrenalin) and then to epinephrine (also known as adrenaline), the stress hormone, for the sympathetic "Flight or Fight" function! In the state of mental stress, the "Flight" means "Run Away", or "Withdraw erection or engorgement" if the stress, tension or fear is induced by sexual encounter; the "Fight" means "Confront", or "Ejaculate or Shoot to Orgasm" if the stress is induced by sexual stimulation on the sex organs.
In fact, sexual orgasm or ejaculation is a result of "abruptly cycling sexual stresses" occurring in the sympathetic motor nerves of sex organs - in the auto-rhythmic fibers and then contractile fibers, when the sexual sensory nerves detect the extreme organ-swelling stress in the those fibers around the prostate (men) and Cervix/Epicenter (women). The sex-organ-expanding stresses then relay signal to the brain/pituitary for both oxytocin and prolactin bursts. It requires a relaxing brain and mind to promote the brain/parasympathetic nervous action in the first place. That is, the brain/mind must get relaxed in order to build the sex-organ-expanding stress. If the brain is too stressed with a high level of epinephrine, you will experience either temporary impotence/frigidity or premature ejaculation/orgasm without erecting or engorging your love tools. The extreme sexual stress can occur without directly stimulating of the penis, clitoris or urethral/vaginal spongy tissues. Visual stimulation (adult movies or porn pictures), erotic thinking, wet dream, exercises that stimulate the prostate or Cervix/Epicenter, childbirth labor or breast feeding can make it too.
The "sexual stress" generally occurs upon the mind and body being in full relaxation and doing nothing except erotic thinking. So that a full recharge of the parasympathetic nervous system can promote a testosterone or/and oxytocin burst in the body and the acetylcholine action for producing a burst of erectile neurotransmitter Nitric Oxide in the pelvic and sex organs' smooth muscles. Thus, the pre-orgasm sexual stress is completely different from the regular physical or/and metal stress. It is a local phenomenon occurring in the sex organ. Upon the sexual stress starts to heat up your brain's Dopamine => Norepinephrine => Epinephrine pathway, you are approaching to the orgasm state.
Dopamine and norepinephrine are happy (feeling good) neurotransmitters. When you are very stressful, a large amount of both brain's "happy" chemicals is converted to epinephrine and then flushed into the toilet, that is, Dopamine => Norepinephrine => adrenalin => urine. Your brain's dopamine D1 receptors won't have sufficient dopamine to turn on your erection circuit and the D2 receptors cannot power your orgasm. The beta-adrenergic receptors in the smooth muscles or tissues (including sexual muscles and tissues!) contain insufficient norepinephrine to help muscular or tissue relaxation.
When you are very stressful, you will experience pain in the neck/shoulder and low back - the deficiency of Yang Chi in the Governing Vessel of the acupuncture network or the dopamine and norepinephrine deficiency! If you are old, you may get Parkinson's disease, Stroke or Heart Attack due to this problem! Naturally, you cannot erect or swell your sex organs properly or long enough due to the tightened muscles and tissues down there, even if your brain's Acetylcholine and Parasympathetic nervous system (the Yin Chi system in the Chinese Medical Concept) can pump out the erectile neurotransmitter Nitric Oxide (NO) and the erectile dilator cGMP (need help from the liver function!) to initiate erection/engorgement. In particularly, excessive epinephrine (adrenaline) in the bloodstream will block the acetylcholine and NO effectors/receptors down there, so that you will experience weak erection, dryness, impotence and frigidity. But, abruptly excessive epinephrine in the brain can cause premature ejaculation (a brief penile stimulation) or premature orgasm (a brief clitoral stimulation), resulting in an abrupt sensation in the penis or clitoris.
What do the dopamine and sympathetic nervous system act during orgasm? Well, they produce alternating surge pulses of norepinephrine and adrenalin, in conjunction with the sympathetic nervous action, the oxytocin (orgasm hormone) pulses and prolactin release. When norepinephrine is at the peak in your brain, you suddenly feel good; when norepinephrine is fully converted to adrenalin, your sexual muscles contract. After several cycles of the alternating norepinephrine-adrenaline orgasmic waves, your dopamine runs low and your happy time is over. If you can not recycle the contraction energy and send it back to your brain in recharging your acetylcholine and dopamine, you can't have one more run. When the dopamine/sympathetic systems are fully drained, the acetylcholine and parasympathetic nervous batteries have to use its bioelectric energy to recharge the dopamine system, that is "Yin Chi assists Yang Chi" in Chinese Medical Concept.
Without sufficient dopamine to suppress the synthesis of prolactin, your prolactin level becomes too high, so that your libido is fully run away. That is, why a lot of young men have found that the first ejaculation makes them last longer if they re-erect the penis for the 2nd strike. It is the prolactin (the orgasm inhibitor) doing the trick! So, elevating the Prolactin level and/or blocking the adrenaline synthesis are the ultimate solution of young men's premature ejaculation problem. Bingo! We get the solution to make you last longer! In fact, Our solution for the Young men's PE problem is a combination of adjusting the prolactin level, blocking the adrenaline synthesis, elevating the acetylcholine level and letting the acetylcholine system to naturally adjust the brain's dopamine level (Yin assisting Yang!). For middle ages and seniors, adding hormones, in addition to the solution mentioned above, are essential.
Without sufficient acetylcholine and bioelectricity in the parasympathetic nervous circuits to support organ functions, you feel exhausted after the first sequence of orgasm (men and women) or ejaculation (men); in particularly, there is no sufficient acetylcholine and parasympathetic bioenergy to actuate the erection and engorgement of the sexual organs such as the penis, clitoris and urethral/vaginal spongy tissues!
