Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

White Peony (Paeonia lactiflora) has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as a tonic herb, often included in formulas intended to support overall vitality and balance within the body. In TCM, White Peony is commonly used to "nourish the blood" and "regulate the liver," which are believed to have indirect benefits for the male reproductive system, particularly in addressing symptoms like fatigue, irritability, or weakness that could affect sexual health. However, while traditional texts sometimes cite its role in formulas for men's health and reproductive well-being, it is usually not the primary herb for specifically male reproductive issues. The historical use is more general, focusing on systemic support rather than targeted effects on male fertility or sexual function.

From a scientific standpoint, there is limited direct evidence supporting White Peony for the male reproductive system. Most modern research has focused on its anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, and immunomodulatory properties, as well as its use in gynecological disorders. Some animal studies suggest potential hormonal modulation, but these findings are preliminary and not directly linked to male reproductive health. Therefore, its use for this purpose relies primarily on tradition rather than scientific validation.
