How does TCM view {condition_name}?
TCM views PMS as primarily caused by Liver Qi stagnation, where blocked energy flow affects emotional regulation and creates physical symptoms before menstruation.
Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) includes symptoms like bloating, irritability, breast tenderness, and fatigue in the days leading up to menstruation, sometimes progressing to severe PMDD that significantly impacts daily functioning. At Qin's Clinic, we offer gentle, natural treatments to address both the emotional and physical symptoms that disrupt your monthly cycle and quality of life.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), PMS is often linked to Liver Qi stagnation, which affects emotional and hormonal regulation throughout the menstrual cycle. Stress, overwork, and emotional strain can aggravate this pattern, leading to mood swings, pain, and digestive issues before menstruation as energy becomes blocked.
