Is it true that there are 50 diseases of menopause?

There is no such thing as “50 diseases in menopause” in clinical practice. The symptoms of menopause are clinically known as perimenopausal syndrome, which belongs to the category of “pre and post menopausal symptoms” in Chinese medicine, and is categorized into kidney yin deficiency, kidney yang deficiency and other types of symptoms. 1. Kidney yin deficiency: patients with this condition may manifest symptoms such as irritability and insomnia, hot flashes (a burst of fever), night sweats (abnormal sweating after going to sleep, but sweating stops after waking up), baking heat and sweating, and dry mouth, etc. Patients with this condition should take medicines that nourish yin and tonify the kidney. The condition is treated with drugs that nourish yin and tonify the kidneys, such as Liu Wei Di Huang Wan. Liu Wei Di Huang Wan has the effect of nourishing yin and tonifying the kidneys, and is used for the treatment of lumbar and knee soreness (a feeling of soreness and weakness in the lumbar and knee regions), tinnitus and deafness, and hot flashes and night sweats caused by insufficient yin in the kidneys. The drug may cause abdominal distension, diarrhea, vomiting and other adverse reactions, and spicy and stimulating foods should be avoided during consumption. 2. Kidney yang deficiency: this condition can be manifested as fear of cold, long and clear urine, soreness and weakness of the waist and knees, fatigue (mental exhaustion, physical weakness) and other symptoms, you can take warm tonic kidney yang (warm warm and replenish the kidney yang) medications to regulate, such as the Jin Gui Kidney qi Pills and so on. Jin Gui Kidney Qi Pill has the effect of warming and replenishing kidney yang, transforming qi to move water (promoting the operation of gas, thus promoting the operation of water and liquid), and is used for kidney deficiency and edema, lumbar and knee soreness and weakness and other conditions. The adverse reactions and contraindications of the drug are not clear, but pregnant women should not use it. If necessary, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for consultation and treatment under the guidance of a professional physician for evidence-based treatment.
