According to traditional Chinese medicine, endocrine disorders are symptoms of yin deficiency and are caused by stagnation of qi and blood. If you use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate endocrine, you can refer to the following methods:

      1. Moxibustion

      Traditional Chinese medicine moxibustion therapy regulates the endocrine system, focusing on the Guanyuan point. Guanyuan point is the main point on the Ren meridian, and it mainly treats diseases of urinary and reproductive organs, such as enuresis and frequent urination, as well as irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea and infertility in women.

      In addition, while moxibustion on the Guanyuan point, moxibustion on the Shenshu, Mingmen and other points will have a better effect on regulating the endocrine system.

      Moxibustion therapy can not only treat irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea and other diseases, but is also very effective in treating neurasthenia, insomnia, cold hands and feet, decreased energy, obesity (weight loss), weight loss (weight gain), etc., because these problems are related to endocrine regulation.

      2. Replenish blood and replenish qi

      Endocrine disorders are a manifestation of yin deficiency and are caused by stagnation of qi and blood. Stagnation of Qi and blood may be caused by blood congestion in the body, blockage of the meridians, intrusion of external toxins into the human body, and persistent lochia after childbirth. Many common diseases in women are actually caused by endocrine disorders. Therefore, to treat these diseases, we must start with regulating endocrine, smoothing Qi and blood, nourishing the whole body with essence and blood, promoting blood circulation, and comprehensively regulating the body from the inside out.

      3. Mediate emotions

      From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, emotions also have a certain impact on endocrine. The so-called "emotions" actually refer to people's mental and psychological states. "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" repeatedly discusses the damage caused by poor mental and psychological states to human organs. It believes that "anger hurts the liver", "happiness hurts the heart", "thinking hurts the spleen", "sorrow hurts the lungs", and "fear hurts the kidneys". The quality of your mood will directly affect the secretion of estrogen in the human body.

      Traditional Chinese medicine regulates endocrine disorders and focuses on regulating emotions because women have special physiological and psychological characteristics, which lead to unique emotional expressions. Because they are more susceptible to the influence of the external environment, they often experience negative emotions such as anxiety, anger, and depression. Therefore, they must actively regulate their emotions and maintain stable emotions and moods to reduce skin changes before and after special menstrual cycles and maintain a good mental state.
