Cordyceps Militaris Composition to Inhibit Testosterone Catabolism

Resolve Bottlenecks,
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing compositions fail to effectively inhibit the decrease in testosterone and dihydrotestosterone, which are crucial for addressing menopausal disorders and related conditions such as prostatic hypertrophy and infertility.

Innovation Solution

A composition containing Cordyceps militaris derived from Samia cynthia ricini and/or its extract is used to inhibit the decrease in testosterone and dihydrotestosterone, which is effective in improving hormone balance-related conditions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If existing compositions are used to promote sex hormone production, then hormone production is enhanced, but the catabolism in circulating blood cannot be inhibited leading to ineffective treatment of menopausal disorders

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetestosterone and dihydrotestosterone levelsVSAvoideffectiveness in menopausal disorders

Core Design Contradiction:

Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary anti-action by pre-inhibiting the catabolism of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone before they can be degraded in the circulating blood. The composition contains specific ingredients that block the catabolic pathways in advance, ensuring that the hormones remain active longer in the bloodstream, thereby effectively treating menopausal disorders and related conditions.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #9Preliminary anti-action

2Reliability

If hormone balance is changed to treat menopausal disorders, then symptoms are improved, but side effects may occur in other hormone-related conditions

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvemenopausal disorder treatmentVSAvoidside effects in other conditions

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by selectively modulating hormone metabolism in specific target tissues and pathways. The composition contains ingredients that specifically inhibit catabolism in relevant hormone pathways while minimizing effects on other hormonal systems, thereby treating menopausal disorders effectively while reducing side effects in other hormone-related conditions through targeted action.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #3Local quality
