Modern pharmacological research has shown that Cistanche deserticola has endocrine regulation, anti-fatigue, and strengthening effects. It has androgen-like effects, can promote the secretion of testosterone, reduce the impact of high-intensity exercise on testosterone, and maintain normal physiological levels. Androgens not only promote penile erection by enhancing sexual desire but also affect the expression and activity of nitric oxide enzymes, directly affecting penile erection.

At present, clinical trials show that patients with erectile dysfunction in diabetes are less responsive to "Viagra" drugs than those with erectile dysfunction caused by nondiabetes. Research has found that the combination of Cistanche Yishen Granules and Sildenafil can leverage the advantages of both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, achieving both symptoms and symptoms. It can significantly improve the erection status of patients with erectile dysfunction, increase the frequency of weekly sexual intercourse, and increase marital sexual satisfaction.

On the one hand, after taking sildenafil, patients are stimulated by sexual stimulation to release NO from the corpus cavernosum of the penis. Through the NO-cGMP signaling pathway, the level of cGMP in the sponge body is increased, smooth muscle is relaxed, and blood flow enters the corpus cavernosum, causing an erection, increasing the length and circumference of the penis, stimulating the vagina, and the effect is more direct. On the other hand, Cistanche Yishen Granules improve the body's response to stress, increase the patient's physical strength, enhance the patient's sexual desire and response to sexual stimuli, increase sexual pleasure, and indirectly improve the sexual satisfaction of both parties through the improvement of the patient's own state.

Prostaglandin E1, a natural component in semen, is a potent vasodilator that can directly act on receptors in the corpus cavernosum of the penis, activating adenylate cyclase. Through the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and protein kinase A second messenger system, it causes a decrease in intracellular calcium ions, expands penile blood vessels, relaxes the smooth muscle of the corpus cavernosum, and achieves a penile erection.

In addition, prostaglandin E1 can also act on the corresponding receptors on the presynaptic or postsynaptic membrane of the sympathetic nervous system, inhibiting the release of norepinephrine that constricts blood vessels in the corpus cavernosum. Based on the synergistic effect of the above two functions of prostaglandin E1, its effect in the treatment of erectile dysfunction is much more natural and effective than other vasodilators. In addition, it can also inhibit the synthesis of collagen, and its incidence of hard nodules and fibrosis is significantly lower than other vasodilators, such as phentolamine or papaverine.
