Male Disorders (15 CEU) $150.00
This course discusses the physiology and pathology of disorders of the male genital system. While the Chinese medicine literature on gynaecology is very rich and vast, it is less so for male genital problems. This course provides the foundation for an understanding of male disorders in Chinese medicine. A special feature of the course is the interpretation of anatomical entities that are not described in the old classics such as the prostate. The course discusses the anatomy, channels and organs influencing the prostate, together with its common pathology of benign prostatic hyperplasia and chronic prostatitis. The main pathologies of the male genital system are discussed including that of stasis of Jing that is not commonly discussed in Chinese medicine books.
