Abstract:
Based on the traditional heart-kidney theory,Professor Xia Guicheng,a master of traditional Chinese medicine,con-structed an academic thought with the"heart(brain)-kidney-uterus axis"as the core and proposed the treatment method of heart-kid-ney co-treatment.The"heart(brain)-kidney-uterus axis"has an important regulatory effect on the secretion of female reproductive hormones and has an important impact on the occurrence and recovery of female whole-life cycle diseases.Therefore,it can be used to treat female whole-life cycle diseases based on the heart-kidney co-treatment.Specifically,the treatment of dysmenorrhea should fo-cus on warming yang and removing stasis,calming the heart and relieving pain;infertility requires the correction of heart and kidney,and pays attention to the treatment of premenstrual and postmenstrual periods;threatened abortion should focus on heart and kidney and stabilize the fetal origin;the treatment of perimenopausal syndrome should focus on nourishing the kidney and blood,softening the liver and soothing the heart.
