Analysis on the Theory of Treating Primary Dysmenorrhea by "Helping Yang and Suppressing Yin"

Abstract

Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a common clinical gynecological disease with a high incidence. Professor Zhang Xiaofeng, based on the theory of "Yang qi, Yin forming" in "Huangdi Neijing", and combined with years of clinical experience, believes that the deficiency of Yang qi is based, and the "Yin forming" of cold coagulation, blood stasis, phlegm, dampness and humidity is relatively too prosperous. The method of supporting Yang and suppressing Yin was used to treat the disease, at the same time, combined with the menstrual cycle, provide power for "Yang qi" and inhibit the production of "Yin forming", so as to improve the clinical effect.
