Symptoms and treatment of spleen deficiency in women

As we all know, once various problems occur inside the human body, the body will also reflect various discomfort symptoms. Especially for women, when the spleen and stomach are weak, the aging process will be accelerated. Therefore, this issue has attracted the attention of many women, and they have tried various methods to improve their spleen and stomach and regulate their bodies. So what are the symptoms of spleen deficiency in women? Are there any methods to regulate it? This article will briefly introduce this issue.

The spleen and stomach are the "guardians" of women's health. A weak spleen and stomach not only affects health, but is also the "big enemy" of women's beauty, so the problem of spleen deficiency should be taken seriously.

What are the symptoms of spleen deficiency in women?

1. Loose stools, heaviness and swelling of the skin. The spleen absorbs, transfers and distributes fluid, and prevents fluid from stagnating in the body. Spleen deficiency will cause stagnation of water in the body, producing pathogenic factors such as dampness, phlegm, and fluid, leading to a variety of diseases such as edema, diarrhea, etc.

2. Fatigue, dizziness. The spleen is responsible for ascending the clear, and it transports nutrients to the heart and lungs. Through the action of the heart and lungs, it transforms qi and blood, provides nutrition to the whole body and maintains the normal position of the body's internal organs. If the spleen is deficient, symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, etc. may occur.

3. Blood in stool and excessive menstruation. The spleen can govern and control blood so that it circulates normally in the blood vessels and does not overflow outside the blood vessels. If the spleen is weak and loses its function of regulating blood, the blood will not flow through the meridians but will overflow outside the vessels. Certain bleeding syndromes may occur, such as bloody stools, subcutaneous hemorrhage, menorrhagia, etc., accompanied by some symptoms of spleen deficiency.

4. Loss of appetite and abnormal taste. Whether food taste and appetite are normal or not is closely related to the spleen's function of transportation and transformation. People with spleen deficiency may experience a loss of appetite or abnormal taste, such as a bland, sweet, or greasy taste in the mouth.

5. Muscles become weak and loose, and the limbs become paralyzed. Whether the spleen's transportation and transformation functions are sound or not is often directly related to the strength or thinness of the muscles and the normal functional activities of the limbs. When the spleen is weak and unhealthy, the muscles lose nutrition and gradually become thin or limp, and the limbs become paralyzed and useless.

How to treat spleen deficiency?

1. Adjust your diet, try to eat light food and eat less raw and cold food. The gastrointestinal system is related to the metabolism of nutrients and water. The best way is to eat a moderate and balanced diet. Oily foods such as alcohol, milk, fatty and sweet foods are difficult to digest and can easily cause gastrointestinal bloating and inflammation. Sweets and fried foods will cause the body to produce peroxides, aggravating the inflammatory response. It is best to eat less cold food or eat a lot of raw fruits and vegetables. This is especially true for those with weak spleen and stomach.

2. Maintain a positive and optimistic attitude. Traditional Chinese medicine says that "worrying too much will hurt the spleen". Thinking too much will affect the spleen's function of transportation and transformation and cause symptoms such as loss of appetite, abdominal distension, and dizziness. The key to spleen maintenance is to avoid excessive thinking and maintain a positive, relaxed and optimistic mood. When a person is in a good mood, the central nervous system is excited, the command function is strengthened, which promotes normal digestion, absorption, secretion and excretion in the human body and accelerates metabolism.

3. Adhere to proper physical exercise. Proper physical exercise can enhance the gastrointestinal function of the human body, strengthen gastrointestinal motility, increase the secretion of digestive juice, promote food digestion and absorption of nutrients, and improve the blood circulation of the gastrointestinal tract itself, promote its metabolism, and delay the aging of the digestive system.

4. Pay attention to keeping warm. People who often use air conditioning will suffer from cold abdomen. Patients with gastrointestinal ulcers are prone to recurrence. People with chronic gastritis or duodenal ulcers should pay special attention to keeping the stomach warm. Cover yourself with quilts when sleeping to prevent the abdomen from catching cold and causing stomach pain or aggravating old illness.
