1. Why do you cramp when you sleep? How to adjust?

Essence, blood, body fluid and fluid in TCM belong to yin, which moistens and nourishes the body, and its nature is like the juice in trees, which can moisten trunks, branches and leaves. If there is a lack of juice for some reason, the trees will lose their vitality and dry up. For people, too, if these "yin" substances are lacking, there will be many problems in the body. For example, some women grind their teeth when they sleep, some people have muscle spasms in their faces, some people have abdominal pain, some people have cramps during sleep, and some people have restless legs. This is called restless leg syndrome. Most of these problems are related to the dystrophy of muscle meridians, that is, without the moistening and nourishing of "Yin" substances, these "wind movements" will occur.

How to regulate insufficient vaginal fluid?

Here is a very simple recipe called "Paeonia lactiflora and Glycyrrhiza Decoction", which comes from Treatise on Febrile Diseases by Zhang Zhongjing, a medical sage. There are only two kinds of drugs, namely Paeonia lactiflora and Glycyrrhiza uralensis:

Formula: 30g of Radix Paeoniae Alba and 6g of Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata.

Usage: Boil water for drinking.

Dr. Luo specifically told: pregnant women must use it under the guidance of a doctor.

In this prescription, peony is sour and cold, nourishing blood and astringing yin, softening liver and relieving pain; Licorice is warm, invigorating spleen and qi, and relieving pain. The combination of the two drugs has the effect of softening tendons and relieving pain. This concept of sour and sweet transforming yin is very important, which means that ordinary fluid can be transformed into body fluid in this way, and it can be used to treat diseases such as loss of tendon and vein, leg and foot spasm, disharmony between liver and spleen, abdominal pain and so on. My experience is that cramps during sleep can generally be recovered after three doses. There was once an aunt whose legs always trembled involuntarily. Western medicine diagnosed her as restless leg syndrome. I used "Shaoyao Glycyrrhiza Decoction" to recuperate her. One dose was effective and three doses were cured.

Second, under normal circumstances, the body is deficient in qi and blood, and we can see many symptoms, but there are also many problems that are covered up, such as blood stasis. Many women can't feel the existence of blood stasis when their blood is insufficient, but it is a good thing to remind us of the existence of blood stasis when their blood is sufficient. At this time, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis will be more effective than before.

Third, the body is weak, and taking medicine often is ineffective. What should I do?

Women often ask me: Dr. Luo, my body is very weak, but my body will cool down when I replenish yin a little, and it will get angry when I replenish yang a little. What should I do?

There is a way to help these "hot water" friends.

In Chinese medicine, there is a theory called "Meridian Flow", which talks about the qi of meridians, which runs at different times every day and flows into different meridians. The law of "Meridian Flow" is as follows:

At Yinshi (3: 00-5: 00 in the morning), the lung meridian is the most prosperous, and the blood stored in the liver is transported to Baimai to start a new day.

Maoshi (5: 00-7: 00) is the most prosperous, so getting up at this time is good for excretion.

At dawn (7: 00-9: 00), the stomach meridian is the most prosperous, and people begin to eat and supplement Shui Gu's subtle.

At the fourth hour (9 o'clock-11point), the spleen meridian is the most prosperous, which is conducive to absorbing the subtle Shui Gu and generating blood.

At noon (1 1 point-13 point), the heart meridian is most prosperous, which is beneficial to blood circulation throughout the body.

At the end (13 o'clock-15 o'clock), the small intestine meridian is the most prosperous, which distinguishes blood from turbidity.

At Shenshi (15 o'clock-17 o'clock), the bladder meridian is the most prosperous, which is conducive to purging the water and fluid bet by the small intestine.

The kidney meridian is the most prosperous at Youshi (17 o'clock-19 o'clock), which is conducive to storing the essence of viscera for one day.

The pericardial meridian is the most prosperous at the moment (19-21point), and the diseases around the heart should be cleared to help people fall asleep.

At HaiShi (2 1 o'clock-23 o'clock), the triple energizer meridian is the most prosperous, and the triple energizer connects with hundreds of pulses, so people should go to sleep and cultivate hundreds of pulses.

At midnight (23 o'clock-1point), the gallbladder meridian is the most prosperous, which relieves the accumulation of one day.

In clown times (1 point-3 o'clock), the liver meridian is the most prosperous, and the liver blood is brought forth new ones.

This timetable is most used in acupuncture, and different acupoints are opened at different times. However, many doctors will follow this rule in taking prescriptions. For example, Ye Tianshi in the Qing Dynasty used this idea a lot when he was recuperating patients. If it was a drug for purging heart fire, he would ask patients to take it at noon, so that they could be relieved.

Many female friends seek medical treatment everywhere, have seen many Chinese medicine practitioners and taken many medicines, but the effect is not obvious and they are disheartened. I suggest you, if you really belong to the situation of deficiency, it is better to go back to the simplest way first, and do it honestly according to the "noon ebb and flow", and take different medicines at different times. If the color of the tongue is slightly red, you can adopt this idea:

In the morning, take Buzhong Yiqi Pill around 9: 00 after meals.

At noon, take Jiawei Xiaoyao Pill between eleven and one.

In the evening, take Liuwei Dihuang Pill from five to seven.

The dosage is as stated in the instructions.

If the color of the tongue is white, not red, then the medicine at night will be changed to "Jingui Shenqi Pill".

If there is blood stasis, take one gram of panax pseudo-ginseng and one gram of American ginseng powder twice a day after meals, which can dredge qi and blood, open meridians and facilitate the absorption of Chinese patent medicines.

Under normal circumstances, taking drugs that tonify the spleen in the morning can generate yang; These people are in a bad mood, so they can shed the fire of their hearts and minds at noon; Nourishing yin at night can conform to the natural rhythm and adjust yin and yang.

The method is simple, but the truth is not simple, among which there is its own heaven and earth.
