How does TCM view {condition_name}?
TCM views PCOS as a complex interaction of Kidney Yang deficiency, Phlegm-Damp accumulation, and Liver Qi stagnation, where these patterns disrupt ovarian function and hormonal regulation.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder that may cause irregular periods, acne, unwanted hair growth, weight gain, and fertility challenges, significantly impacting quality of life and reproductive health. At Qin's Clinic, we address both the root hormonal imbalances and associated symptoms through personalised TCM treatments that support natural ovarian function.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), PCOS is often linked to Kidney Yang deficiency, Phlegm-Damp accumulation, and Liver Qi stagnation. These patterns interact and compound one another, where Kidney Yang deficiency affects ovulation, Phlegm-Damp accumulates in the ovaries forming cysts, and Liver Qi stagnation disrupts hormonal flow and menstrual cycles.
