Method for treating male sexual dysfunction by using underpants comprising far-infrared fibers

Abstract

Differing from conventional approaches for improving sexual dysfunction of an adult man being commonly carried out by letting the adult man administer a dosage of synthetic drug or a composition of Chinese herbal medicines, the present invention particularly discloses a method for treating male sexual dysfunction by using underpants comprising far-infrared fibers. A variety of clinical data have proved that, after wearing this underpants for 3 months, both the men diagnosed with sexual dysfunction and the men not sure to suffer from sexual dysfunction have an apparent progress on improvements of their erectile ability, erectile quality, ejaculation control ability, and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Moreover, clinical data have also proved that, despite the fact that a male person wears the underpants provided by the present invention for three months, there is no adverse effect induced by the underpants for causing the physiological condition of the men be abnormal.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for treating male sexual dysfunction by using underpants comprising far-infrared fibers, comprising following steps:
 (1) providing an underpants weaved from a plurality of far-infrared fibers and a plurality of fibers, wherein each of the far-infrared fibers comprises a polymer sheath and far-infrared powders doped in or enclosed by the polymer sheath; moreover, the far-infrared fibers having a fiber amount occupying 20-50 percent of a total fiber amount of the underpants; and   (2) letting adult men diagnosed with sexual dysfunction or not sure to suffer from sexual dysfunction wear the underpants for at least one month.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the type of the underpants is selected from the group consisting of briefs, boxer briefs and boxer shorts. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the manufacturing material of the polymer sheath is selected from the group consisting of polyester (PET), polyurethane (PU), Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), poly propylene (PP), and polyamide (PA). 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the polymer sheath is made of a polymer compound comprising silica of at least 50 wt %, and the chemical structure of the polymer compound is presented by following chemical formula 1: 
       
         
           
           
               
               
           
         
       
       wherein n in the chemical formula 1 is in a range from 50 to 100. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the far-infrared powders comprises powdered titanium (Ti) with a first metal weight percent of 11-18 wt %, powdered germanium (Ge) with a second metal weight percent of 0.1-0.2 wt % and powdered zinc (Zn) with a third metal weight percent of 0.05-0.15 wt %. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the far-infrared fibers are able to emit a far-infrared ray with a wavelength in a range from 2 μm to 22 μm, and the emissivity of the far-infrared ray is above 90%. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the far-infrared powders further comprises powdered oxide and powdered carbide for increasing the emissivity of the far-infrared ray. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the powdered oxide is selected from the group consisting of: Al 2 O 3 , MgO, NiO 2 , SiO 2 , ZrO 2 , and a mixture made by any two or more aforesaid materials. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the powdered carbide is selected from the group consisting of: TaC, ZrC, SiC, and a mixture made by any two or more aforesaid materials. 
     
     
         10 . A method for treating male sexual dysfunction by using underpants comprising far-infrared fibers, comprising following steps:
 (1) providing an underpants weaved from a plurality of far-infrared fibers, wherein each of the far-infrared fibers comprises a polymer sheath and far-infrared powders doped in or enclosed by the polymer sheath; and   (2) letting adult men diagnosed with sexual dysfunction or not sure to suffer from sexual dysfunction wear the underpants for at least one month.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the type of the underpants is selected from the group consisting of briefs, boxer briefs and boxer shorts. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the manufacturing material of the polymer sheath is selected from the group consisting of polyester (PET), polyurethane (PU), Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), poly propylene (PP), and polyamide (PA).
