What to do if gynecological diseases are caused by heavy moisture

Having a healthy body is very important for women. It is common for female friends to have dampness in their bodies. There are many reasons that lead to dampness in the human body, such as long-term drinking, lack of qi and blood, mental stress, bad living habits, etc., which can cause heavy dampness in the human body. Some women have gynecological diseases caused by heavy dampness. What should we do if gynecological diseases are caused by heavy dampness? Let’s take a look at it next.

1. Why does excessive moisture in women cause gynecological diseases?

Chinese medicine experts say that most gynecological diseases in women are caused by "dampness". "Women are yin-type," and are based on blood. They like the communication of positive energy the most, and hate the conflict of negative energy the most. Looking at gynecological diseases, menstrual, dysmenorrhea, pregnancy, and childbirth diseases are most likely to be caused by dampness. Dampness is a heavy and turbid Yin evil, which is tangible and heavy, and is sticky in nature. It can often block the Qi and stagnate the Yang, causing abnormal rise and fall of the body's Qi and block the meridians. Dampness can turn into damp-heat over time, or become phlegm when refined into phlegm, or even become dampness toxin, which can then become the cause of gynecological diseases.

2. Gynecological diseases caused by excessive moisture in women and how to treat them?

1. Menstrual disorders

Living in wetlands for a long time or wading in water in the rain can often cause external dampness, which can lead to limb fatigue, pain, heaviness of the head and loss of appetite or low-grade fever before and after menstruation, irregular menstruation or premenstrual diarrhea, scanty menstruation, dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea, and even infertility.

2. Leucorrhea

"The dampness and earth's qi attract each other of the same kind." When internal and external dampness combine, the dampness traps the spleen and earth, causing the spleen to fail to function properly. The dampness overflows and flows down to the uterus, causing the belt meridian to fail to function properly, resulting in excessive leucorrhea. The dampness turns into heat and damages the meridians, or becomes damp-heat and dampness toxicity, which results in green, yellow, red, white, or black discharge.

3. Pregnancy diseases

Internal retention of water and dampness and poor qi transformation can often lead to worsening nausea and vomiting in the early stages of pregnancy, with symptoms such as headache, nausea, chest tightness, poor appetite, vomiting and loss of appetite.

4. Postpartum disease

Postpartum women are often "weak and have a lot of blood stasis", with both Qi and blood deficient, and insufficient spleen and stomach. They are most susceptible to the invasion of dampness, which can cause postpartum vomiting and diarrhea, edema, lochia, and limb pain.

3. Reminder

Develop good living habits in daily life, avoid moisture in the room, expose bedding to the sun frequently, and eat some dehumidifying foods regularly.
