Introduction
Methods for managing deficiency of yang energy in men include exercise regulation. Practicing activities such as Tai Chi, walking, and Baduanjin can promote the circulation of qi and blood. Moxibustion can help control disease progression and alleviate symptoms such as pallor and lethargy. For more severe cases of yang deficiency, medications such as Fuzi Lizhong Pill, Lizhong Pill, or Jin Kui Shen Qi Pill may be taken according to medical advice.

Methods for regulating insufficient yang energy in men include exercise regulation, moxibustion therapy, and medication. The details are as follows:

1. Exercise Regulation

For men who clearly suffer from cold intolerance and cold hands and feet, practicing exercises such as tai chi, walking, or the Eight Brocade (Baduanjin) can help promote blood and qi circulation, thereby improving symptoms such as chills and deficient yang energy.

2. Moxibustion Therapy

Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medical treatment known for its effect in warming yang energy and unblocking meridians. Commonly selected acupoints include Zhongwan, Shenshu, and Shaofu. Moxibustion at these points can help control disease progression and alleviate symptoms such as pallor and lethargy.

3. Medication

If yang deficiency is severe and causes symptoms like abdominal pain, soreness, and cold-induced lower back pain in men, medications such as Fuzi Lizhong Pills, Lizhong Pills, or Jin Kui Shen Qi Pills may be taken under medical guidance to effectively warm and tonify kidney yang.

In addition, dietary adjustments are also important. Men should maintain a calm and balanced mindset, improve their quality of life during illness, undergo regular follow-up examinations, and monitor their recovery progress.
