Kidney deficiency manifests widely in women, affecting menstruation, vaginal discharge, pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, and more, demonstrating the fundamental position of the kidneys in traditional Chinese medicine theory and their profound impact on bodily functions.
What are the ways to regulate kidney deficiency in women?
One method is through dietary therapy for nourishment, with a recommendation to try longan meat porridge. To make this porridge, prepare longan flesh, red dates, and glutinous rice. During cooking, first boil the longan flesh and red dates over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer for about half an hour until the rice grains are soft and mushy. Finally, add appropriate amounts of white sugar for flavoring, and it can be consumed once it cools slightly. It is advised to eat it twice a day, morning and evening, for a week to see results.
Another approach is to combine it with traditional Chinese patent medicines for auxiliary treatment, especially when dietary therapy is not effective. Liuwei Dihuang Wan is a commonly used medicine for nourishing yin and tonifying the kidneys, particularly suitable for a series of symptoms associated with kidney deficiency. If experiencing significant coldness at night, considering Gui Fu Di Huang Wan may be beneficial, as it is also applicable for kidney deficiency with a cold constitution; both options are good choices.
Through the continued practice of the above methods, one can gradually alleviate the discomfort brought on by kidney deficiency and promote overall health.
