[Health Channel/Comprehensive Report] It is often rumored that infertility is related to "cold uterus", and it is necessary to eat four things, do not eat ice, and cannot wash hair during menstruation.
In this regard, Zheng Anbin, director of the integration of Chinese and Western medicine at Taoyuan Yiyun Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic, posted on the Facebook page "Traditional Chinese Medicine Confidant Physician Zheng Anbin", explaining that the coldness of the uterus is due to abnormal physiological functions of the ovaries and uterus, not the literal uterine temperature is too low.
He also mentioned that there are many causes of infertility, and we should not only look at the cold uterus, but also use a case to illustrate and clarify the importance of related factors in order to prescribe the right medicine.

There are many causes of infertility, not just "cold uterus"
Zheng Anbin mentioned that in ancient classics, the discussion of infertility is not only cold.
The medical textbook "Yi Zong Jin Jian Gynecological Heart Method" compiled by the Qing Dynasty mentioned that the causes of infertility are related to blood stasis, cold, heat, and phlegm. Kidney deficiency, spleen and stomach deficiency cold, liver depression and other reasons.
From the perspective of modern medicine, the causes of infertility include advanced age, ovulatory dysfunction, blocked fallopian tubes, polycystic ovary, endometriosis, etc. Chinese medicine treatment can improve, but others include inflammation, blood stasis, phlegm dampness, etc. These should be considered comprehensively and dealt with together.
Treatment should be prescribed according to the symptoms, it is not advisable to take traditional Chinese medicine
Zheng Anbin shared a case and pointed out that in the treatment of infertility, it is not only cold uterus.
A 34-year-old woman has been married without contraception for nearly 4 years, but has not been pregnant. She has received artificial insemination (IUI) once but failed, so she came to see a doctor.
The case said that he often heard friends say that the uterus should eat four things, but after taking the traditional Chinese medicine, he felt hotter and hotter, and his chin often had acne.
After evaluating her gynecological symptoms and gynecological examination data, Zheng Anbin judged that she did not have obvious "uterine cold".
On the contrary, from the chest pain before menstruation, feeling hot at night before menstruation, dry mouth and lips, easy anger before menstruation, red tongue with little moss, thready pulse, etc., it is inferred that it belongs to "liver depression" and "liver fire" in traditional Chinese medicine. ", "yin deficiency" and other evidence.
He also gave prescriptions for soothing the liver, nourishing yin, clearing heat, and tonifying the kidney. After more than a month, the patient said that during this menstrual period, the symptoms of PMS did not occur.
However, considering the age and life planning of the case, after discussing with her husband, she decided to undergo IVF treatment.
During the course of treatment, I took traditional Chinese medicine, but the hot flashes, nausea, and lower abdominal distension that may occur with hormone drugs did not occur. The number of eggs retrieved this time is also quite good, and I have successfully conceived and delivered after implantation.
Zheng Anbin pointed out that through this case, it can be seen that Chinese medicine is actually quite delicate in the treatment of infertility. Infertility is not just "uterine cold", and it is not recommended to take Chinese medicine by yourself.
