Effect of Needle-pricking in Treating Functional Anejaculation and Its Influence on Sex Hormone Levels

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of needle-pricking （NP） for treatment of anejaculation （AE）, and its influences on sex hormone levels. Methods One hundred and twenty-two AE patients were randomized into the treated group （62 patients） treated with NP applied mainly on bilateral points of sacral plexus and para-vertebra L1, every 5 days; and the control group （60 patients） treated orally with L-dopa and ephedrine 1 h before sexual inter- course. The therapeutic course for both was 45 days. Changes of clinical conditions and blood sex hormones levels were observed. Results The total effective rate was 82. 3% （51/62） in the treated group, which was significantly higher than that in the control group, 58. 3% （35/60, P 〈 0. 05） ; levels of luteinzing hormone （ LH）, follicular stimulating hormone （FSH） and estradiol （E2） were improved significantly in the treated group after treatment （P 〈0. 01 ）, but in the control group no significant change of FSH was shown, and the improvement of LH and FSH was inferior to that in the treated group （P 〈0. 01 ）. Conclusion NP could improve the clinical symptoms and adjust the blood levels of sex hormone in patients with AE, showing an effect better than L-dopa plus ephedrine in increasing LH and FSH levels.
