Patient's question:
I am entering menopause prematurely, and my period has stopped. I've heard that entering menopause at this time is not good, as it can make it easier for one to age. This also bothers me greatly. It's said that taking some traditional Chinese medicine can help regulate it, so I'd like to consult and ask: what traditional Chinese medicine should be taken for regulation after menopause?Doctor's answer:
Menopause in women is generally a physiological phenomenon, primarily caused by endocrine issues, which is mainly related to the function of the uterine appendages. On the other hand, traditional Chinese medicine considers it may be due to yin deficiency of the liver and kidneys or dual deficiency of the spleen and kidneys. In terms of care, it can be addressed by tonifying the liver and kidneys or the spleen and kidneys. It is very important to enhance physical exercise to improve the body's disease resistance. In terms of diet, a balanced combination of meat and vegetables, along with consuming more fresh fruits and vegetables, contributes to overall health.
