overly moist faces with vaginal dryness

[Guest guest]

Hi

 

I have encountered now three women, postmenopausal, in my practice

who present both greasy facial complexions and vaginal dryness. The

overall pictures are not too remarkable otherwise--mostly pale red

tongues, thin moist coatings, wiryish pulses. Any ideas on these co-

occurances and what they might indicate? Emotionally, they all tend

to be somewhat anxious and frustrated with low libido.

 

Thanks, Shanna

Might it have to do with chong/ren blockage, if the chong and ren are

failing to irrigate the vagina the surplus would rise to the face and

overflow there. I always thought about this as a mechanism for excessive

hair growth with menstrual irregularity, but it might work for this too. It

would be interesting to find out what role the chong and ren are see to have

had in post menopausal women.

Hi Par

 

Thanks for the insight. Sounds plausible, however I can't find any

info on treatment--points, rx? What other symptoms might be present

without menstruation as a guide? Any sources?

 

thanks, Shanna
