These are the symptoms of Yin deficiency in women!

Once female friends develop symptoms of Yin deficiency, they will experience discomfort in various parts of the body, such as chloasma on the face, dark circles under the eyes, irregular menstruation, back pain, sluggish hair growth and easy hair loss, etc. Female friends with these symptoms must pay attention to their diet. Eating more Polygonatum walnut porridge, walnut and longan porridge, etc. are good choices.

1. Symptoms of Yin Deficiency in Women

1. Chloasma appears on the face: Kidney yin is insufficient and cannot moisturize the skin. Butterfly-shaped pale yellow, yellow-brown or light black patches often appear on the cheekbones with clear boundaries and are often accompanied by irregular menstruation.

2. Dark circles: In TCM theory, black represents the kidneys, and dark circles under the eyes indicate kidney deficiency. Not only kidney deficiency, but also many other organs are diseased, which will affect the normal functioning of the kidneys over time. Physical weakness will lead to spleen deficiency, which will slowly form dark circles.

3. Irregular menstruation: Traditional Chinese medicine believes that only when the kidney qi is abundant can the qi and blood be balanced. The menstrual cycle can only function normally when the Chong and Ren meridians are functioning properly, so insufficient kidney qi is an important cause of irregular menstruation. Kidney deficiency is often accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, physical weakness, weak waist and legs, and lower abdominal distension and pain.

4. Low back pain: Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "the waist is the home of the kidneys". Kidney deficiency can manifest as low back pain, which is characterized by dull pain after fatigue.

5. Hair growth is poor and it is easy to fall out, which is a symptom of kidney yin deficiency. Other symptoms of kidney yin deficiency include red complexion, dizziness, tinnitus, loose teeth and hair loss, decreased menstruation or amenorrhea, insomnia and forgetfulness, dry mouth and throat, irritability, sweating, and weight loss.

2. What should women with Yin deficiency eat?

1. Polygonatum odoratum walnut porridge

15g each of polygonatum, walnut, adenophora, and lily, and appropriate amounts of polished rice and salt. Polygonatum odoratum has the effects of nourishing yin and moistening the lungs, benefiting the stomach and producing body fluid Walnuts nourish the kidneys and moisten the intestines. Adenophora can nourish yin and moisten the lungs, benefit the stomach and produce body fluid. Lily is sweet, slightly cold, and enters the lung and heart meridians. It can nourish yin, moisten the lungs, relieve cough, clear the heart and calm the mind. Using them together has the effect of nourishing yin and moistening dryness.

2. Walnut and longan porridge

Chinese medicine in my country points out that walnuts have excellent brain-boosting effects and also have kidney-tonifying effects. Cooking walnuts and longans together into porridge and eating it can not only nourish the brain and kidneys, but also help women to better replenish blood, so as to completely regulate the yin deficiency constitution.
