Xiao Zhang is 35 years old, 4 years ago suffering from nephrotic syndrome, the current condition is stable, has been afraid to have sex. Like Zhang such suffering from kidney disease and dare not live a married life of many people, often to the point of talking about kidney, more afraid to face sex. A large number of clinical studies have shown that there are many misconceptions about sexual life in patients with kidney disease: 1, kidney disease is kidney deficiency, kidney deficiency will affect sexual function resulting in impotence, premature ejaculation, low sexual function, etc.. 2, the use of hormone therapy, hormones will affect the sex hormones, resulting in abnormal sexual function. 3.Sex life will lead to kidney deficiency and aggravate the condition of kidney disease. 4, long-term disease torture, resulting in mental and psychological burden. 5.Decreased testosterone level and testicular dysfunction in patients with nephropathy. The most common clinical kidney diseases are acute glomerulonephritis, acute progressive glomerulonephritis, chronic glomerulonephritis, occult glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, acute pyelonephritis, chronic pyelonephritis, etc. Kidney diseases are clinically diverse and interconnected, and kidney diseases are characterized by recurrent attacks that are difficult to cure; chronic glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, lgA nephropathy, and kidney diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus, allergic purpura, diabetic nephropathy and hereditary nephropathy, congenital polycystic kidney, etc. can be cured if they are treated actively and symptomatically in the early stage; if they are not If not effectively treated, repeated attacks can cause damage to various systems of the body, such as renal hypertension, renal diabetes, renal anemia, renal bone disease, etc.; if the kidney disease in childhood, early and not effectively treated, or not the right disease will affect the normal development of the body, after growing up, sterility; kidney disease after many attacks, the condition is not controlled or not effectively treated, and repeated attacks may eventually. Repeated attacks may eventually develop to renal failure, that is, uremia; regardless of which type of kidney disease, treatment is valuable in the early, with the right medicine. Kidney disease patients are mostly manifested as: lumbar acidity, weakness, Chinese medicine believes that the waist is the kidney of the top, thousands of years in the people’s impression, lumbar pain is kidney deficiency, kidney deficiency is often equated with sexual function, in fact, this is also to a misconception, is the Chinese traditional culture; Chinese medicine kidney and Western medicine kidney is different, Chinese medicine kidney contains a system of functions, while the Western medicine kidney refers to the specific kidney. Sex is a physical activity, excessive sex will aggravate kidney disease, but a normal and regular sex life can regulate the patient’s mood, increase the couple’s feelings, and favor the recovery of the disease. kidney disease generally does not lead to lower testosterone levels and testicular dysfunction. Even after uremia do kidney transplant, hypothalamus, pituitary gonadotropin secretion most in the normal range, some patients after kidney transplant not only have normal sex life, but also reproductive function. The secondary sexual function abnormalities caused by abnormal kidney function make the gonadal function low, causing erectile dysfunction or feminization of male breast. Some patients with kidney disease need hormone therapy, and hormones do not affect sexual function. In conclusion, sexual life that is sexual behavior is a series of complex and coordinated physiological processes, with neuroendocrine regulation, hemodynamic changes and psychological effects and many other factors. Therefore, from the point of view of modern medicine, sex (sexual function) and kidney is not directly related, kidney disease patients with normal sex will not directly affect the kidney or aggravate the disease, of course, sex can not be excessive, excessive will indirectly affect the disease due to physical exertion. Moreover, sexual function is affected by physiological, psychological, disease, social, environmental and other factors, so if the kidney disease is not cured for a long time, kidney disease is also the same as other diseases, will indirectly affect the sexual function. Due to the long-term pain of the disease, it will cause lower libido and sexual dysfunction due to the patient’s physical, psychological, mental, therapeutic drugs and neuroendocrine physiological changes. But this is a different thing from people’s concern that the kidney itself directly affects sexual function. And life people say kidney disease, mostly refers to modern medicine said kidney disease, and then go to apply the theory of Chinese medicine kidney, resulting in fear and timidity of sex, which is obviously overthinking, so patients with kidney disease can have a moderate sex life. Although, the kidney is not directly related to sex, but its disease and its treatment are related to sexual function. For example, patients with nephrotic syndrome such as long-term loss of protein and red blood cells from the urine will cause a lack of nutrition in the body and fatigue; coupled with the impact of abnormal sex hormones, such as mental tension, anxiety will also cause a series of problems such as decreased libido and sexual dysfunction, attention should be paid to mental and psychological guidance and the use of some drugs to relax the liver and relieve psychological depression.
