Patient's question:
Many yellow spots and age spots on the face, mood became irritable in 2008Doctor's answer:
The human body has an endocrine system that secretes various hormones and works with the nervous system to regulate metabolism and physiological functions. Under normal circumstances, hormones maintain a balance. However, if this balance is disrupted due to certain factors or causes (such as excessive or insufficient levels of a particular hormone), it leads to endocrine disorders, which can cause corresponding clinical manifestations.Recommendations: From a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, endocrine disorders are a manifestation of yin deficiency and are caused by blood and Qi stagnation. If stagnant blood remains in the body, meridians become obstructed, external toxins invade the body, or postpartum lochia does not discharge properly, it may lead to blood and Qi stagnation. Many common female conditions are actually caused by endocrine disorders. Therefore, treating these conditions should start with regulating the endocrine system to ensure smooth blood and Qi flow, allowing essence and blood to nourish the entire body and promote blood circulation. This approach involves comprehensive regulation from the inside out.
According to the principle of syndrome differentiation and treatment in TCM, individuals with hyperactive functions should focus on nourishing yin, while those with hypofunction often exhibit blood and Qi deficiency or kidney deficiency. Treatment typically involves blood-boosting, Qi-tonifying, and kidney-tonifying therapies to improve the condition.
