Spermatorrhea is a condition of excessive, involuntary 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 the 18th and 19th centuries, if a patient had ejaculations outside of marital intercourse, or released more semen than is typical, then he was diagnosed with a disease called ''spermatorrhea'' or "seminal weakness". A variety of drugs and other treatments, including circumcision and castration, were advised as treatment.〔William Acton. "(Victorian London – Disease – Spermatorrhoea )." From ''Prostitution, considered in its Moral, Social, and Sanitary Aspects''. 2nd edition, 1870. Compiled in Lee Jackson's ''The Victorian Dictionary''.〕 Some alternative practitioners, especially herb healers, continue to diagnose and advise treatments for cases of spermatorrhea. 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.〔〔William Acton. "(Victorian London - Disease - Spermatorrhoea )." From ''Prostitution, considered in its Moral, Social, and Sanitary Aspects''. 2nd edition, 1870. Compiled in Lee Jackson's ''The Victorian Dictionary''.〕 According to Western medicine, ejaculation is a widely accepted practice and some even see it as a normal part of daily life, 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 (kidney essence). == See also == * Jing (Chinese medicine) * Kidney (Chinese medicine) * Nocturnal emission * Spermaturia 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spermatorrhea」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
