Twelve remedies for nocturnal emission through diet and medicine, a scientific guide to sperm retention, and an analysis of prostate fluid indicators.

Twelve Medicinal and Dietary Remedies for Nocturnal Emission: (1) Medicinal and Dietary Therapy for Kidney Deficiency and Instability: Patients often experience dizziness, tinnitus, lower back pain, fatigue, and cold limbs. ① 30g of Cistanche deserticola, 200g of mutton, and 200g of rice, add water and cook into porridge as usual. ② 30g of walnut kernels, 5g of Schisandra chinensis, and appropriate amount of honey, add water and stew. ③ 60g of dried Myrtle, 1 egg, 30g of brown sugar, and appropriate amount of rice wine, decoct in water and take orally. ④ 15g of Rosa laevigata, 80g of rock sugar, and 1 bowl of water, steam in a steamer for 1 hour. ⑤ 100g of fresh leek sprouts and 1 pork kidney, stir-fry with cooking oil and salt. ⑥ 30g of Rosa laevigata and 250g of crucian carp (remove internal organs), add appropriate amount of water and stew into soup. ⑦ 50g each of lotus seeds and Euryale ferox, 200g of lean meat, add appropriate amount of water and stew into soup. ⑧ 60g of walnut kernels and 150g of chives, stir-fry in sesame oil until cooked. ⑨ 1 pair of pork kidneys, 30g each of Eucommia ulmoides and walnut kernels, cook together in water until cooked. ⑩ 15g each of Chinese yam and wolfberry, 12g of Cornus officinalis, 1 pork kidney, simmer in soup. (2) Dietary therapy for excessive fire: Patients often have symptoms of aversion to heat, irritability, and hot palms and soles. ① Rehmannia glutinosa porridge. 150g of fresh Rehmannia glutinosa, wash and extract the juice. Cook 50g of japonica rice into a thick porridge and then pour in the juice. ② Jellyfish and water chestnut soup. 60g of jellyfish head and 60g of water chestnut. First, rinse the jellyfish to remove the saltiness, then cook it together with the water chestnut.

Advocating scientific sperm saving: (1) "Haste makes waste": If you want to get pregnant, avoid having sex once a day. You should abstain from sex for 3 to 5 days before the planned conception date. Sperm density and survival rate are related to magnesium and zinc in trace elements. (2) Avoid saving sperm for too long: Sperm maturation takes about 90 days. If the accumulation time is too long, the number of old and dead sperm will increase, which will affect conception and childbirth. (3) Avoid high temperature environments when saving sperm: Those who work in high temperature environments for a long time or take saunas will have a sperm concentration in their semen decrease by about 30%.

Diagnostic indicators of prostatic fluid include: (1) pH: The normal pH range is 6.7-7.3. In cases of inflammation, the pH can increase to 7.7-8.5. (2) Zinc ion concentration: The prostate is the tissue with the highest zinc content. In chronic prostatitis, the zinc concentration drops from the normal 480 μg/mL to about 148 μg/mL. (3) Citrate concentration: Secretion is controlled by androgens. The normal concentration is about 19 mg/mL, while in patients it is about 6.4 mg/mL. (4) Acid phosphatase content: Significantly increased in prostate cancer. (5) Immunoglobulin content: Type A immunoglobulin has diagnostic value; its normal concentration is 1500 times higher than that in the blood.
