Epimedium can be taken by women to treat kidney yang deficiency (lack of yang energy in the kidneys) in women, which is characterized by cold pain in the lower back and knees, cold pain in the abdomen, and infertility due to uterine cold. The clinical application of Epimedium is gender-neutral and can be used to treat cold pain in the waist and knees, rheumatism paralysis, numbness in the limbs, etc., caused by kidney yang deficiency. Epimedium is pungent, sweet and warm in nature. It has the effects of warming and tonifying kidney yang (warming and replenishing kidney yang), dispelling wind and removing dampness (dispelling wind and dampness from the body). Some people have adverse reactions such as dry mouth and nausea after taking Epimedium. This product is contraindicated for people with phase fire, yin deficiency and hyperactivity of yang (deficiency of yin fluid and hyperactivity of yang qi). If Epimedium is abused, it may further deplete kidney essence and aggravate the condition. If you need to use Epimedium, you should standardize its use under the guidance of doctor’s diagnosis to avoid adverse consequences.
