Characteristics of Gynecological Treatment in TCM
Development of women's diseases are usually associated with a congenital deficiency, marriage at a very young age, multiple births, excessive sex, overstrain, an improper diet or injuries and infections. They lead to under-functioning in organs and/or irregular movements of qi (vital energy) and blood with damage to the extra meridians which result in different disease patterns. Blood is the elementary basis of these physiological functions hence there is the saying that "women take blood as primary". Due to the periodic loss of blood through menstruation, TCM believes that a woman is always in a state of blood insufficiency and is relatively excess qi (vital energy) inside the body. However, the blood and qi (vital energy) mutually generate and depend on each other that disharmony of the blood will affect the qi circulation, and, disharmony of qi will affect blood circulation.

TCM recognizes the physiological functions unique to women including menstruation, pregnancy, childbirth and lactation. In reviewing the traditional Chinese monographs, women's diseases are commonly classified under categories of menstrual disorders, pregnancy, abnormal uterine bleeding, vaginal discharge, ante partum (before delivery), post partum (after delivery) and miscellaneous types.

TCM Gynecological treatments used include acupuncture, moxibustion, massage, cupping, scraping, hot compression, fumigation and washing, and lifestyle modification.
