How is menopausal syndrome caused

Patient's question:

How to Treat Menopausal Syndrome
Recently, I've been feeling hot flashes and chest tightness, which is very uncomfortable. I also tend to get angry easily. How can I take care of myself?

Doctor's answer:

The symptoms of menopause, if treated solely with medication, are difficult to achieve lasting effects. Therefore, it is necessary to appropriately adjust lifestyle, enhance physical exercise, participate in sports activities, improve physical fitness, regulate diet, quit smoking and drinking, adhere to a regular schedule, control sexual activity, maintain a cheerful mood, prevent overexertion, and reduce worries. Through activities like appreciating nature, painting, and other practices, one can cultivate character, nourish the body, and bring joy.
Doctors believe that menopausal symptoms are primarily caused by an imbalance in the endocrine system of the kidneys' yin and yang, as well as dysfunction of internal organs. The treatment should focus on balancing yin and yang and nurturing the internal organs. Some traditional Chinese medicine herbs and dietary therapy methods for tonifying the kidneys include goji berries, Chinese yam, polygonum multiflorum, epimedium, cordyceps, reishi mushroom, Chinese yam, walnuts, dog kidney, polygonum multiflorum, millet, and pig kidney porridge.
