1, Ejiao nourishes blood and beauty
Women should nourish blood all their lives. When a woman is a little girl, she often loses too much blood due to menstrual disorder and functional uterine bleeding, and her hemoglobin and red blood cell count drop, resulting in dizziness, anxiety, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, insomnia, dreaminess, pale face and lips and other symptoms. When pregnant in October, women not only need enough blood to nourish themselves, but also the fetus needs to rely on the mother's blood to support them, so most pregnant women will have symptoms such as anemia, anorexia, dizziness and pallor. However, when women lose too much blood during childbirth or during induced labor or abortion, they are more likely to cause various diseases due to anemia. Severe anemia, there will be premature wrinkles, white hair, tooth loss and other symptoms. And postpartum breastfeeding, the mother needs more blood to become milk. When women reach menopause, due to the deficiency of liver and kidney, there will be a series of problems such as hot flashes, sweating, chest tightness, dizziness, backache and bone pain. Therefore, different physiological stages of women will have a certain impact on the body. Some women can get through it smoothly, while others have obvious symptoms, which is mainly related to whether they are nursed back to health and nourished in time.
We know that Ejiao has the functions of nourishing yin and moistening dryness, enriching blood and stopping bleeding. Modern science has proved that Ejiao can promote the production of red blood cells and hemoglobin, has significant anti-anemia and hemostasis effects, and can improve the balance of calcium in the body, promote the absorption of calcium and increase serum calcium. Because of this, Ejiao is the best choice for women to nourish yin and blood all their lives. Women can take Ejiao at different ages according to the situation, so that they can not only go through different physiological stages smoothly because of the nourishment of blood, but also have certain benefits for maintaining their appearance and physical and mental health.
Ejiao is the holy medicine of obstetrics and gynecology.
There are many gynecological diseases with deficiency of yin and blood in clinic, and Ejiao is a good product for nourishing yin, enriching blood and stopping bleeding. Therefore, Ejiao is used to treat many gynecological diseases.
Menstruation is a "pain" that women need to face all their lives. On those special days, both the little girl and her mother have to endure all kinds of discomfort caused by blood loss. Professor Xiao suggested that taking Ejiao in moderation can not only enrich blood and nourish blood, improve complexion, but also relieve the "pain" during menstruation.
Professor Xiao specifically mentioned menstrual disorder. She said that menstrual disorder is the most common disease in gynecology, which is characterized by menstrual cycle, menstrual period, menstrual volume, menstrual color, abnormal menstrual quality or symptoms accompanying menstrual cycle. Common phenomena include premenstrual period, late menstruation, irregular menstruation, menorrhagia, scanty menstruation, amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, metrorrhagia and so on. Its clinical treatment focuses on regulating menstruation and nourishing blood.
Ejiao is sweet and warm, and is often used to treat menorrhagia and prolonged menstruation in clinic. For people with yin deficiency and blood deficiency, Professor Xiao suggested taking Ejiao in moderation.
Ejiao also has therapeutic effect on threatened abortion.
In recent years, due to the increasing number of elderly pregnant women, the number of patients who have miscarried and are facing abortion has increased dramatically. Professor Xiao, who has been engaged in gynecology for more than 40 years, is very worried about this, but she also said that Chinese medicine has obvious advantages in this respect, and the effect of Chinese medicine in treating threatened abortion is very good.
Used for threatened abortion and habitual abortion, donkey-hide gelatin and Eucommia ulmoides Oliv. Radix Paeoniae Alba, Folium Artemisiae Argyi, Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, Herba Taxilli, Semen Cuscutae, etc. Treatment can be carried out according to symptoms and signs. However, patients must stay in bed absolutely while taking the medicine.
Infertility has become a major problem for women of childbearing age. Professor Xiao said that it is very important to treat infertility with combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine. First of all, it is necessary to determine whether the man's semen is normal, the woman's ovulation function and other reproductive organs are normal through the examination of western medicine. Find out the root cause of infertility, and then treat it according to different conditions of Chinese medicine.
During the Republic of China, Shoutai Pill recorded in Zhang Xichun's Experience in Western Medicine was a good prescription for tonifying kidney and preventing miscarriage commonly used by gynecologists. Colla Corii Asini is used, together with Herba Taxilli, Radix Dipsaci and Semen Cuscutae.
Menopause is also a special period that all women must go through. Menstrual disorders accompanied by paroxysmal hot flashes, sweating, dizziness, insomnia, upset and anxiety are some symptoms that women often appear at this stage. When there are some signals, it is necessary to properly recuperate, which also reflects the spirit of disease prevention.
The ancients said that people with yin deficiency should make up their taste, Ejiao is sweet, nourishing yin and enriching blood. Professor Xiao believes that Ejiao can nourish yin and blood, and tonify liver and kidney, which can be a good choice for women to tonify in this period. Colla Corii Asini's function of promoting calcium absorption can effectively improve the problem of osteoporosis faced by menopausal women.
White-collar workers need donkey-hide gelatin to replenish blood.
Modern women are facing increasingly fierce social competition, accelerated pace of life and work, increasingly complex interpersonal relationships, and the heavy responsibility of raising future generations, which makes women bear the dual pressures of career and family at the same time, which will inevitably have an adverse impact on their physical and mental aspects. Especially those girls who work have higher requirements for mental and psychological conditions. They are in a tense working state all day, and their mental and psychological fatigue is getting more and more serious, which will inevitably lead to blood deficiency, which in turn will lead to liver blood deficiency, liver depression and qi stagnation, heart and kidney failure, resulting in fatigue, loss of appetite, insomnia, forgetfulness, decreased desire, depression, constipation and other discomforts.
It is suggested that they first change their unhealthy lifestyle, and at the same time, in order to avoid premenstrual syndrome such as irritability, they can take Ejiao to nourish blood and soften the liver before and after menstruation, and they can also take Ejiao granules in moderation at ordinary times. Because Ejiao is flat, it can be taken in moderation all year round, especially in winter.
