Patient's question:
Hello: How is uterine cold caused in infertility? Sometimes, in winter, my hands and feet get cold. How is that caused?Doctor's answer:
So-called "palace cold" refers to a condition in women where there is insufficient kidney yang, leading to a lack of warmth in the uterus, resulting in symptoms such as lower abdominal heaviness, distension, and pain, which are relieved by warmth. Other symptoms include excessive leukorrhea, dysmenorrhea, menstrual disorders, a deep and tight pulse, and a thin white tongue with abundant moisture. "Palace cold" is a disease name in traditional Chinese medicine theory and cannot be directly matched with specific Western medical diagnoses. However, some common gynecological acute and chronic inflammatory conditions seen in Western medicine clinics (such as: vaginitis, cervicitis, endometritis, adnexitis, etc.) can be treated using the "palace cold" diagnostic approach, and have achieved good clinical results. Therefore, it is essential to identify the root cause before providing targeted treatment.
