Can Premature Ovarian Failure be Treated by Chinese Medicine?

Premature Ovarian Failure Chinese medicine can only provide symptomatic relief, but cannot treat the root cause of the disease. Premature ovarian failure is caused by immune and genetic abnormalities, resulting in the decline and loss of ovarian function before the age of 40. The lack of estrogen and progesterone secretion due to the decline of ovarian function will lead to menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, irritability, insomnia, etc., which will have a certain impact on the patient’s health. For the above mentioned uncomfortable symptoms caused by premature ovarian failure, Chinese medicine treatment is effective, for example, taking traditional Chinese medicines that have the functions of removing vexation and clearing heat, nourishing yin and lowering dryness, and tonifying qi and tranquilizing the mind, such as menopausal an and menopausal ning, etc., which can alleviate the uncomfortable symptoms appeared by the patients. However, since ovarian decline is an irreversible process, Chinese medicine treatment cannot restore the function of the ovaries to normal, so Chinese medicine cannot achieve the therapeutic effect of curing premature ovarian failure. Patients with premature ovarian failure must seek timely medical treatment under the guidance of a doctor, do not take medication on their own to avoid adverse drug reactions.
