Beauty and Health Sutra of Female Traditional Chinese Medicine

Chapter 5 Healthy femininity comes from the breast, uterus and ovary (3)
If the pigmentation on the face of a female friend suddenly increases, it is necessary to pay attention to whether it is caused by ovarian lesions, and adjust it as soon as possible to restore the beautiful appearance.In the physiological cycle of women's skin, there is a golden time when the effect of freckle removal is extremely high.From the beginning of ovulation to about 2 weeks before menstruation, women secrete progesterone in their bodies to prepare for ovulation. At this time, the skin often has active melanin.And from this time to the next ovulation period, the skin is in a better state, which is the best time to take care of the skin.If the ovary is maintained during this period, the internal environment can be stabilized.With the reduction of androgen and the increase of estrogen secretion, the spots will gradually disappear.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the decline of ovarian function is mainly due to the attenuation of kidney qi, the decline of Tiangui, the increasingly insufficient menstrual blood, the deficiency of qi and blood, and the imbalance of yin and yang in the kidney.Premature ovarian failure can easily lead to decreased levels of estrogen secretion, endocrine disorders, and pigmentation.When the body's immunity is low, the body's ability to transport and transform is insufficient, the normal pigment metabolism cannot be removed, and the skin does not receive enough nutrients, so it is easy to form pigmentation spots.Therefore, to eliminate stains, we should start from the root and carry out thorough conditioning.

Dysmenorrhea may be caused by ovarian cysts
Dysmenorrhea is a symptom of lower abdominal pain before and after menstruation or during menstruation, which may even affect life and work in severe cases.At present, many women think that dysmenorrhea is not a disease, and it will pass after a while.In fact, dysmenorrhea may also be caused by ovarian cysts.

The relationship between dysmenorrhea and ovarian cysts is very close. If the blood cannot flow out smoothly during menstruation, there will be reflux, and it will migrate to the ovaries. The endometrial tissue will take root in the ovaries, and cysts will form after a long time.When menstruation comes, it will cause pain in the lower abdomen, which is manifested as symptoms of dysmenorrhea.Ovarian cysts may also be the cause of dysmenorrhea in women who have not given birth or in adolescent women.Of course, ovarian cysts are not the only cause of dysmenorrhea. It is recommended that female friends with dysmenorrhea go to the hospital for an examination, and it is best to have a B-ultrasound.

Long-term abnormal menstruation, weak Qi and blood
Normal menstruation is a manifestation of the normal development and function of the female internal genitalia.There are a small number of women who have heavy menstruation or do not come for several months. These phenomena are called irregular menstruation.Amenorrhea and less menstrual blood, followed by premature ovarian failure and aging appearance. Women in their 20s have this problem, which will lead to infertility; women in their 30s and 40s will lead to accelerated aging; women in their 40s and 50s will lead to early menopause, and no matter how much money is spent on maintenance, they will not be able to restore their original beauty.If there is an abnormality, it means that the reproductive system is abnormal, which may indicate problems with the body's endocrine system and other aspects.

Therefore, female friends must not ignore abnormal menstruation.If your menstruation is delayed, in addition to pregnancy, it may indicate ovarian dysfunction, which is an alarm sent to the human body by premature ovarian failure.Declining ovarian function can lead to persistent amenorrhea and atrophy of sexual organs, causing premature aging of patients and bringing great pain to physical and mental health and married life.It can also lead to infertility in young women.To prevent ovarian aging, timely treatment is the most critical.

During this special time of menstrual period, we must also know how to take care of ourselves.Sanitary napkins used during menstruation should be clean and replaced frequently to prevent infection; do not take tub baths, lest unclean water enter the vagina and cause infection; keep the vulva clean and wash the vulva with warm boiled water once a day; sex life is prohibited during menstruation, In order to avoid infection and other adverse consequences; strenuous exercise, such as long-distance running, swimming, etc., should be avoided during menstruation, and excessive physical labor should also be avoided.If you do not do a good job of self-care, it will lead to abnormal menstruation, which will inevitably affect other functions, and the ovary, as a body part closely related to menstruation, will also be implicated.Therefore, taking good care of yourself during menstruation is responsible for yourself and the best care for your ovaries.

Soft and shrinking breasts
When a woman recovers almost the same figure after giving birth, her breasts become abnormally soft and sag very seriously.Moreover, no matter how much exercise and food supplements, there is no change.The occurrence of this situation is actually caused by premature ovarian failure.Female friends may have a tendency to premature ovarian failure for some reason after giving birth, causing breast sagging.

Premature ovarian failure is a manifestation of ovarian dysfunction.At the onset of the disease, the estrogen and progesterone secreted by the ovaries are significantly reduced, the breasts lack the stimulation of estrogen and progesterone, and slowly shrink, and the glands will gradually degenerate, so most women will show a significant change in breast volume. Small, soft tissue, sagging, increased skin folds, seriously affecting the appearance.But there is also a special situation. Some women's breasts will increase. Don't think that this is because the breasts are developing. This situation is actually the reason why the stromal cells of the mammary glands are replaced by fat.

decreased sexual interest
Decreased libido refers to persistent or repeated lack of or complete lack of desire for sex, which can be divided into complete sexual hyposexuality and situational hyposexuality.Most people with complete hyposexuality only have sex once or less than once a month, but they can passively obey when their spouses ask for sex; situational hyposexuality only occurs in a specific environment or with a specific sexual partner.

Sexual life is a form of expressing the love between husband and wife. Only when both men and women have normal sexual desire can they live a happy life.However, with age, many female friends have a significant decline in sexual desire, which will have a certain impact on the relationship between husband and wife.

You should know that the gonadotropins secreted by the female pituitary gland can regulate the level of sex hormones such as estrogen and progesterone secreted by the ovary, and play a decisive role in female sexual activity.For example, before and after the menstrual period, due to the decline of sex hormone levels, the libido of women is relatively weak.Another example is that in elderly women, due to the gradual atrophy of the ovaries, the level of sex hormones will drop significantly, which can cause apathy in libido.

These are enough to prove: sex hormones and sexual desire are closely related.

Therefore, the decline in female libido is also a warning of premature ovarian failure.

The loss of libido is actually a complex process of mutual influence, for example, decreased hormone secretion, incorrect self-awareness, poor relationship between husband and wife, decreased sexual sensitivity, etc., and some women have sex due to surgery or vaginal dryness in discomfort.Perhaps the most important is the loss of libido caused by the reduction of estrogen, and the reasons are also complicated.

Female friends need to understand a problem, the sexual organs do not only refer to the reproductive organs, it includes a very important factor, that is consciousness.In fact, it can be regarded as a regulator of sexual desire, and visual and psychological stimulation can also cause sexual desire.However, many female friends suffering from premature ovarian failure suffer from mental illnesses such as excessive inferiority complex and psychological pressure, mental depression, etc., which greatly reduce their "sexual interest".Emotion is also very important for libido, and it can be improved by regulating hormones and changing self-awareness, and it also has a certain regulatory effect on premature ovarian failure.

If premature ovarian failure is not treated in time and allowed to develop, it will cause symptoms such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease and lipid metabolism disorder in patients, and the quality of life of couples will also be greatly affected.

To avoid premature ovarian failure, for ordinary women, it is still necessary to prevent it early in terms of lifestyle.

First of all, postpartum breastfeeding should be promoted, and the breastfeeding time should be extended as much as possible.Secondly, women should insist on drinking milk, eat more fish, shrimp and other foods, and maintain a good habit of exercising.Sleep is equally important to prevent premature aging. Good sleep is the guarantee of good health.

For older women, it is mainly some psychological factors that determine their sexual requirements.For example, confidence in one's own sexual ability, whether the sexual life of husband and wife has been coordinated for many years, and whether there are other psychological obstacles.Of course, the sex life of older women cannot be like that of young women, but is mainly based on emotional communication, caressing, hugging, etc., to experience the joy brought by the intimate relationship between husband and wife to achieve sexual satisfaction.Older women maintain a proper sex life, which can delay the atrophy of reproductive organs such as ovaries and help slow down ovarian aging.

Often emotionally unstable, flustered and suspicious

Premature ovarian failure allows many young women to enter menopause early, and it is easy to cause emotional changes.Therefore, women should be vigilant and actively prevent premature ovarian failure.

Why does premature ovarian failure cause emotional changes?Because the secretion of estrogen will change with the decline of the ovaries. When the ovarian function declines, a series of changes will occur in both sex hormones and pituitary gonadotropins. They will affect women's psychological activities through certain neural mechanisms. and behaviors that cause some emotional changes.The emotional changes and tension in turn affect the level of sex hormones, and lead to ovulation suppression and cycle disorders.

Under normal circumstances, women with obvious mental trauma, mental fragility, frequent quarrels and anger, divorce and lack of normal sex life will have obvious decline in ovarian function at the age of 35 compared with their peers.When this premature ovarian failure caused by "emotional illness" reaches a certain level, it will also cause amenorrhea.

Female friends should be vigilant if they have the following emotional symptoms:

Overly sensitive: always forcibly associate some unpleasant events that happen around with oneself, often frustrated, sad, and unfounded.

Emotional tension: often make blind connections to certain behaviors and actions of others.Imbalances in the mind can quickly swell and become emotionally charged.

Blind suspicion: Unreasonable and blind doubts about some matters involving their own interests. Once confirmed, resentment will rise sharply.

Once the above symptoms appear, it is necessary to see if there is a problem with your ovary, and then cooperate with effective measures to improve it.First of all, you need to cooperate with the doctor's advice to do corresponding ovarian treatment, or take some hormones to regulate.Secondly, women's own emotional management is also very important.Female friends must correct their understanding and relieve their concerns.Pay attention to work and rest, eat a reasonable diet, and get enough sleep.Appropriately participate in recreational, sports and social activities to cultivate the mood and exercise the body.Sex life can also go on as usual without any taboos.Learn to think calmly, and don't jump to conclusions when you encounter doubts.

Learn to be patient, it is impossible to handle everything satisfactorily, and the imbalance of mentality exists objectively.At the same time, learn some positive psychological defense.Now the spirit of Ah Q is no longer a joke, and the method of spiritual victory is still very beneficial to physical and mental health.

severe insomnia

Some women always can't fall asleep at night, or wake up easily, what is the reason?There are many reasons for insomnia, and premature ovarian failure is one of them.In the outpatient clinic, most patients with premature ovarian failure have symptoms of insomnia.Among them, the light ones have difficulty falling asleep, and the severe ones can't sleep all night, accompanied by hot flashes, flushed face, hot sweating, emotional agitation, or abnormal consciousness, dizziness, palpitations, and forgetfulness.So, why does premature ovarian failure affect people's sleep?
Women with premature ovarian failure are mostly due to the gradual decline of kidney qi, kidney essence failure, and menstrual blood decline.If the disease is dead for a long time, the mood is depressed, overworked or exposed to external evils, it will easily lead to the imbalance of kidney yin and kidney yang.Because of the close relationship between the liver and kidney, the imbalance of kidney yin and yang will cause the liver to lose its nourishment. Insufficient liver blood will inevitably lead to empty heart vessels, blood not nourishing the heart, and insomnia due to depression of the liver qi, poor mood, and liver failure. Up to, Qi disorder, then lead to heart-qi stagnation, poor blood flow, resulting in loss of control of the mind, sleepless nights.

It can be seen from this that premature ovarian failure, in a sense, is caused by the dysfunction of various system organs of the body.Therefore, in the usual health care, women should do the following: It is advisable to take a light diet rich in protein and vitamins.Participate in exercises that emphasize mental and physical exercise, such as health exercises and Tai Chi, to improve the ability to regulate nerves.Have a regular life, rest regularly, don't overeat dinner, and don't drink tea, coffee and other stimulating drinks before going to bed.
