Has anyone had success improving libido and energy levels through acupunture?

Anyone?

Acupuncture is bullshit - if you get a placebo effect from it, enjoy. But it's BS.

Acupuncture is a theatrical placebo: the end of a myth

Tried the ear acupunture a few times.
No miracle..

As efficient as placebo
(Which isnt necessarely a bad thing)

Any inconclusive first-hand experience with it?

My uncle was once having an aweful migraine.
The kind you bang your hand on the wall and would rather die.

He had tried every possible medication.

They called an acupuncturist in, he placed needles. 30 min later the pain was gone like nothing happened.

I do believe it works after this episode, I’m not even debating whether it does or not.

Just wondering if it could be used for such purposes as libido

So to sum that up:

‘I prefer to refute science and base my decision on the opinion of my uncle and random people on an Internet forum’

In that case, sure, it can solve even the most sever cases of ED! Good luck.

No it s been tried with along with other alternatives therapy and it doesnt bring much more than placebo effect, which again sometimes may just be exactly what you need

Doctors arent here to impose science, but to help

If it doesnt hurt (and in that case there are some things you want to make sure are in check as to on who and how its performed), its worth a try

So yes I ve seen patient satisfied with the outcome

Try it and see how it goes

The only people who get help from acupuncture for ED....would be the same people who don’t even have ED to begin with. They just can’t come to terms or understand that their issue is purely a mental one.

Too many people underestimate the power of the brain.

I m sorry I dont understand, so if you have ED from mental issues its not ED?

I mean in the sense of

A lot of guys will try to say they can’t really get a full erection, and want to claim they have ED. When the issue is simply then being attracted to the other individual in the first place. Or guys that simply have no confidence in the bedroom, and can’t get hard with a new woman due to the pressure. These are just a couple of examples.


In these instances, yes, you have problems getting an erection, but you’re ignoring the root cause of the problem. These guys invest time and effort into trying to bandaid something, whereas if they’d come to truly understand the underlying issue it would be fixed quicker, and better.

There's PHYSICAL ED - where Viagra, the right hormones etc help. Actual proven meds that address whatever physically ails you.

Then there's MENTAL ED - where obviously placebo activities like acupuncture can help, or some other useless activity like drinking tiger blood or eating bull testicles etc can "fix" things.

More often then not the 2 are intrigued

And what you’re simply ignoring is


Taking ED drugs, when your probably is mental, simply masks the problem and doesn’t even 100% make everything fully functional.

Whereas if you fixed the mental problem, you’d in turn fix the actual issue and the physical symptoms would disappear WITHOUT drugs.

This isn’t really hard to comprehend, not sure what’s proving so difficult for you here....

You re saying things I agree with for the most part, you are over symplifying a bit but yea overall I think you re on point

not sure what makes you think I disagree on anything you said

My fault, I thought your follow up questions were essentially disagreeing with my logic.

Intertwined?

Post a study that says so.

Why do you bring ED in the picture?

The topic here is libido, not ED at all.

I get a full hard on when interaction occurs.

What I lack is that lust to fuck every chick around and random hard ons that I had 2 years ago and that is now gone.
