As for the treatment of kidney yin deficiency, we should also pay attention to the opposition and mutual root problem of yin and yang. Commonly referred to as kidney deficiency, including kidney yin deficiency, kidney yang deficiency, yin and yang deficiency, etc. Kidney yin deficiency is a depletion of substances, while kidney yang and kidney qi are functional. If more substances (kidney yin and kidney essence) are consumed, such as sexual intercourse is too frequent, or due to excessive labor (including mental and physical strength), or the body is weak since birth, its material foundation is damaged or the body is relatively deficient, and Symptoms of kidney yin deficiency are prone to occur, such as weakness in the waist and knees, weakness in the limbs, dizziness and tinnitus, hair loss, loose teeth, memory loss, premature aging, decreased sexual desire, spermatorrhea, premature ejaculation, etc. Deficiency of kidney yin is also prone to deficient heat.

Generally, kidney yin deficiency mostly occurs in young and middle-aged people, because young and middle-aged people have a relatively large amount of activity, whether it is studying or exercising, and consume a lot of energy and material. In terms of sexual function, kidney yin deficiency is characterized by high sexual desire, but rapid ejaculation (premature ejaculation), accompanied by nocturnal emissions.
