Introduction: what is Unani medicine, and can it help with impotence?
Unani medicine is a form of traditional medicine that originated in Greece. It is based on the belief that all illnesses and diseases are caused by an imbalance of the four humors: blood, phlegm, black bile, and yellow bile. Treatment focuses on restoring balance through dietary changes, herbs, and other natural therapies.
Over a few centuries, Muslim Indian herbalists amalgamated this art with Tibbe medicine to build a unique herbal system.
Unani medicine has been used to treat a variety of conditions for centuries, including impotence.
To treat impotence, practitioners typically recommend dietary and lifestyle changes as well as herbal remedies.
These remedies include herbs, dry foods, oils and more.
Some scientific evidence supports the use of certain Unani medicines for treating erectile dysfunction and other sexual problems.

What is male impotence? – Briefly
Impotence, or erectile dysfunction, is the inability to get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse.
Although it’s not a natural part of ageing, the incidence of impotence increases with age. But it’s not an inevitable part of ageing.
All male sexual problems can be avoided or slowed down with a good natural healthy lifestyle.
Erectile dysfunction can occur at any age, but it is more common in men over 40. In fact, some research suggests that 50% of men over 40 experiences some type of erectile issues like impotence or premature ejaculation.
These conditions can be caused by health problems such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity.
And by psychological factors such as anxiety, depression, and stress.
Men under 40 can also have impotence and other ED problems in these cases.
Evidence supports that by following a course of Unani treatment, a man can be cured or relieved to some extent of such problems.

The Unani systems used two types of herbal prescriptions to treat illnesses.

These herbs are thought to help restore the balance of the four humors and improve sexual function.
Let’s start with single herbs and then move on to Unani concoctions for the treatment of male impotence.
