Patterns of Imbalance for Menstrual Symptoms: TCM categorizes menstrual issues into patterns such as blood stasis blockage in circulation, disharmony between liver and spleen emotional stress affecting digestive health, or deficiency in kidney energy impacting reproductive function. By recognizing these patterns, treatments m to correct underlying imbalances rather than simply addressing surface symptoms.
