I. Symptoms
1. Cold and pain in the lower abdomen during or after menstruation
Since kidney yang is important to warm and support the uterus for a healthy conception, deficiency of kidney yang causes cold to accumulate in the womb which interferes with the normal function of the kidney in regulating the temperature of the uterus, leading to muscle contraction, resulting in lower abdominal cramps and pain.
2. Small volume of dark menstrual discharge
Spleen is important to assist the heart in transporting blood to the reproductive organs and to support the kidney in nourishing and moistening the body's blood vessels. Deficiency of yang reduces blood and fluid in the reproductive organs, leading to a small volume of dark menstruation.
3. Weak and aching lower back and legs
Yang is necessary to support the daily activity in the body. Deficiency of yang causes constriction of the lower back and leg muscles.
II. Causes
1. Colding effect
Eating cold foods for a prolonged period of time will cause kidney yang deficiency. Cold foods are yin in nature, after entering the stomach, our body needs to provide more yang to digest it that depletes the yang qi.
2. Life style
Some people like to drink cold drink after taking straight from the refrigerator, eat raw foods, swim in a cold water, go out a lot in rainy weather or cold water,etc., they will cause extra yang produced by the body to counter the affect of the cold.
