ABSTRACT

Menopausal syndrome is a common gynecological disease, also known as perimenopausal syndrome. With the increase of the aging population in China, the prevention and treatment of menopausal syndrome have received more and more attention. Although menopausal hormone therapy in Western medicine has achieved some success, there are more adverse reactions, and the fear of hormone therapy has limited its clinical application. In contrast, the treatment of menopausal syndromes by Chinese medicine using prescription medicines, acupuncture, and qigong has lower adverse effects, obvious efficacy, and is easier to tolerate. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the etiology, pathogenesis, patterns and treatment options of menopausal syndrome, to summarize the effectiveness of TCM treatment, and to provide new ideas for clinical treatment.
