Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I am already 57 years old this year, and I may be entering menopause recently. My emotions fluctuate greatly, and I often sweat while taking a nap in the evening. It should be cold sweat, and it feels cool when touched. So, I wanted to ask you, doctor, what should I do about sweating during menopause?Doctor's answer:
Hot flashes during menopause are generally considered symptoms related to kidney yin deficiency, which are directly linked to autonomic nervous system dysfunction. Treatment can be implemented through oral intake of oryzanol and Liuwei Dihuang Wan. It is also important to drink more plain water daily to aid digestion. Avoid consuming greasy, spicy, or irritating foods. Most oral menopausal health tablets can also be helpful. Smoking and drinking beer should be avoided. Regulating physical and mental health, maintaining personal hygiene, and avoiding bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity are essential.
