The brownish patches of skin are also called melisma or mask of pregnancy, and they developed due to hormonal changes during pregnancy. Chinese Medicine principles opine that postpartum chloasma is associated with the health of the patient’s liver, spleen, and kidneys. The stagnation of the qi and blood basis can disrupt the circulation of the body, causing the skin to look dull and develop spots. A spleen with a weak qi would not restore the radiant complexion to the skin effectively, causing the skin to turn sallow. A yin-deficient kidney can also cause the skin to look dry and dull. Hence, it is vital for mothers who have just given birth to take care of their bodies. Drink soups that can nourish the liver, spleen, and kidneys. These soups should include ingredients like black-boned chicken, Polygonum multiflorum (‘He Shou Wu’), black fungus, black bean, wolfberry, chestnut, walnut, and mulberry. Tips on ingredient: Notoginseng (‘Tian Qi’), known as San Qi in Mandarin, is warm in nature. It can clear stasis, swelling, and relieve pain. It is suitable to control both internal and external bleeding and bruises, clear blood stasis, and relieve swelling and pain. It is not suitable for women who experience severe blood loss during period, bleeding womb, and postpartum bleeding (lochia). (To be cont in comment column)

I wonder if it has to do with asthenic kidneys?” CheckCheckCin: Asthenic kidneys refer to weakness in the kidneys. People would generally associate sexual dysfunction with kidneys, and Chinese Medicine theories believe that the kidneys store the essence, promote growth and reproduction. Thus, sexual dysfunction is partially associated with the organ’s weakness. There are two types of weakness in the kidneys – yin-deficient and yang-deficient: 1) Yang-deficient type asthenic kidney: Symptoms include aversion to cold, fatigue, soreness and weakness in the knees and waist, after-dribble, loose stools, or experience diarrhea at around 3-5am. Men would experience erectile dysfunction, nocturnal emission, or premature ejaculation, whereas women would experience pain during menstruation (warm compression can relieve this condition), amenorrhea (absence of menstruation), and difficulties with conception. Hence, it is important to replenish yang in the kidneys. 2) Yin-deficient type asthenic kidneys: Symptoms include the accumulation of heat in the body, soreness and weakness in the knees and waist, dizziness, tinnitus or hearing impairment, night sweats, gum pain, and sore throat.

Do you think the strength of the urinary stream in men has to do with their sexual prowess? The answer is no, because the strength of the urinary stream is closely associated with the functions of the bladder and urethra. If after-dribble occurs, then we need to pay attention to the prostate. As we age, the prostate, which is located beneath the bladder, will elongate and press against the bladder and urethra. This will cause irregular urination problems such as frequent urination, urinary retention, weak urine stream, inconsistent urination, nocturia (frequent urination at night), and even anuria (non-passage of urine). Chinese Medicine theories opine that prostate enlargement is caused by phlegm-dampness and damp heat. When the circulation of fluid in the body is affected, its circulation in the bladder and urethra would also stagnate. If this happens alongside other accompanying symptoms such as chest tightness, appetite loss, frequent urination but with a small volume of urine, it is best for us to clear the heat and eliminate the dampness from the body. If the accompanying symptoms are fatigue, aversion to cold, weakness and soreness in the knees, frequent urination with a large volume of urine, we need to strengthen the kidneys and promote urination. Upon entering middle age, men should take good care of their health whether they have a prostate problem or not. (To be cont in comment column)
