What are the clinical manifestations of kidney deficiency in women?

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidneys are the root of the body's reproductive development. The kidneys have two aspects, kidney yin and kidney yang, which are interdependent and interact with each other. If the body's kidney yang and kidney yin lose balance, the phenomenon of yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity will occur, which is commonly known as kidney deficiency. Women are most susceptible to kidney deficiency, especially middle-aged women, whose incidence rate is higher than that of men. So, what are the clinical manifestations of kidney deficiency in women?

It is understood that the symptoms of kidney deficiency in women are mainly manifested in the following points:

1. Insomnia, hot sensation all over the body, difficulty concentrating, and decreased memory. Women with kidney yin deficiency are easily irritable, have difficulty concentrating, always lack energy at work, and their work efficiency is significantly reduced. And often suffer from insomnia and nightmares. In addition, I often feel soreness in the waist and knees.

2. Loss of appetite, nausea, stomach pain, abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, etc. Female patients with kidney deficiency eat very little for three meals a day. Excluding weather factors, even if the food tastes very good to them, it often tastes like chewing wax. Eating raw, cold, dry and hard food will cause stomach discomfort. Female patients with kidney deficiency often have symptoms of frequent urination, more than three times at night under normal drinking conditions. Urinary frequency is weak and unsmooth, and stool is sticky and difficult.

3. Decreased sexual interest, depression, anxiety, panic, etc.

Once a woman suffers from kidney deficiency, she will experience symptoms such as irregular menstruation and decreased libido. Her husband has clearly expressed his sexual desire for her, but she often feels exhausted. I often feel like there is a nameless fire piled up in my heart, and I want to vent it but I don’t have the strength. I often feel inexplicably anxious when I am alone.

4. Decreased immunity, tinnitus, and nasal congestion

Women with kidney deficiency are more likely to catch colds than before, and once they catch a cold they will suffer from nasal congestion, runny nose, and sore throat, which are obvious symptoms of kidney deficiency. If you sit or squat for a long time, you will feel black spots, dizziness and tinnitus when you stand up.

5. Fear of cold, backache

Female patients with kidney deficiency are more afraid of cold than ordinary people and always need to wear thicker clothes than others. They do not have rheumatism or trauma, but often feel discomfort in the back, tightness in the chest, pain in the waist and back, and unlocalized muscle pain. Even if female patients with kidney deficiency do not lift heavy objects, their legs will feel weak after walking to the third floor; if they sit in a chair to watch TV for more than 2 hours, they will feel back pain.

The above is an introduction to the clinical manifestations of kidney deficiency in women. I believe you now have a better understanding of kidney deficiency. When women experience the above symptoms, they should go to the hospital to confirm whether they are suffering from kidney deficiency. If the degree of kidney deficiency is not serious, they can combine medication and diet therapy to actively regulate the kidneys.
