Five manifestations of kidney deficiency in women

Every time Annie goes shopping, even if she refuses to drink water, she always wants to go to the bathroom. After waiting in line for most of the day, it was finally my turn, but the amount of urine I urinated each time was very small. Not long after she came out and was enjoying herself, she started to think about going to the bathroom again.

Condition Analysis: Usually one of the most obvious characteristics of frequent urination in women is "small amount and frequent urination". Traditional Chinese medicine believes that when physical fitness declines, kidney qi becomes deficient, the bladder will show weakness in gasification, the muscle fiber tension of the bladder smooth muscle will decrease, the elasticity of the bladder will decrease, and the kidney gate will not be solid, just like a door that is not closed tightly, so frequent urination and urinary incontinence will occur.

Prevention and treatment measures: Keep warm and eat more kidney-nourishing foods, such as wolfberry, yam, leek, lamb, dog meat, walnut kernels, etc. If you have frequent urination and a large amount of urine, such as a total urine volume of more than 2500 ml in 24 hours, you should be alert to the possibility of diseases such as diabetes. In addition, mental factors may also cause polyuria, which is more common in middle-aged women and is accompanied by frequent insomnia, indigestion, or severe neurasthenia. The symptoms vary from time to time and generally do not cause any harm to physical health.

2. Hair is becoming thinner

Xiaoyue's work is not very busy, but she has been losing a lot of hair recently. She is very careful about her hair maintenance and is very puzzled. She is not depressed and has no insomnia, so why is this happening?

Condition Analysis: The period when a woman's kidney energy is at its peak is around the age of 22. After the age of 25, it begins to gradually decline. Traditional Chinese medicine says that "the kidneys control water, and its beauty is in the hair." The good or bad function of the kidneys is reflected in the hair. Flexible and shiny hair indicates healthy kidneys. People with kidney deficiency often have brittle and dull hair and are prone to hair loss.

Prevention and treatment measures: Eat more kidney-benefiting foods. For example, yam is a good tonic food that replenishes both qi and yin. You can also cook wolfberry and mutton soup to warm and nourish the kidney qi. In addition, 8 hours of sleep a day is also very important. At the same time, you should drink less alcohol, eat less spicy food, strong coffee, strong tea and other stimulating foods.

3. Panda eyes that are always embarrassing to show

When Su Nan put on makeup every morning, she often found that her previously bright and radiant eyes had been replaced by a pair of swollen panda eyes, and her complexion was also very ugly. She was very depressed. She was not even 30 years old yet, so how could she age so quickly?

4. Afraid of cold and prone to diarrhea

Qianru is always afraid of cold and often gets diarrhea when she catches a cold. Whenever she saw her sisters wearing beautiful short skirts in the office, she could only feel secretly jealous.

5. Unexplained weight gain

Siya has always paid attention to her body shape. In addition to abusing her mouth, she also goes to the gym to sweat regularly. To her dismay, she has inexplicably gained 2 kilograms recently.

Condition Analysis: Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that the basic causes of obesity are phlegm, dampness, and stagnation. To go further, it is kidney deficiency that causes women to gain weight.
