Patient's question:
My menstrual cycle has always been around 25-26 days, occasionally advancing by one or two days.Doctor's answer:
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) comprehensively analyzes that gynecological conditions such as dysmenorrhea and menstrual irregularities are often caused by internal factors. The key player is the "uterus" (), the sea of yin meridians in women, which plays a coordinating role in harmonizing qi and blood throughout the body. Ancient TCM texts state: "Running water never stagnates, and a well-used door hinge never decays." Menstrual irregularities are closely related to hormonal secretion within the body. The two major endocrine systems in women, the ovaries and the kidneys, determine the functioning of the entire internal reproductive system, and their health significantly impacts women's menstrual cycles.
