What is endocrine disorder called in Chinese medicine?

Endocrine disorders are called "qi and blood fluid imbalance" or "zang-fu dysfunction" in TCM. TCM believes that endocrine disorders are mainly related to the following qi and blood imbalance, zang-fu dysfunction, emotional factors, living habits, external evil invasion, etc. 1. Qi and blood imbalance Qi and blood is an important material basis for maintaining human life activities. When qi and blood circulation is not smooth, such as qi stagnation and blood stasis, it can affect the function of zang-fu organs and lead to endocrine disorders. For example, poor mood can lead to liver-qi stagnation, which in turn affects the circulation of qi and blood and causes various discomforts. 2. Zang-fu dysfunction TCM zang-fu organs include heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, etc., which coordinate and restrict each other. If a zang-fu organ function disorder, may break this balance. For example, spleen control transport, if spleen deficiency transport failure, can lead to water stagnation in the body, metabolic disorders. 3, emotional factors Long-term mental stress, mood fluctuations can disrupt the body's qi and blood circulation and zang-fu functions. For example, anxiety, depression and other bad emotions may affect the liver's function, causing endocrine disorders. 4, bad living habits, such as irregular diet, overwork, work and rest disorders, etc. will also affect the body. Irregular diet may damage the spleen and stomach, overwork is easy to hurt healthy qi, these may lead to endocrine disorders. 5. Exogenous pathogens invade the human body, such as wind, cold, summer heat, dampness, dryness and fire, which may also affect the normal physiological functions of the human body and cause symptoms related to endocrine disorders. In addition, TCM treatment of endocrine disorders emphasizes the overall concept and syndrome differentiation, through the regulation of qi and blood, viscera function, improve emotions and living habits and other aspects of comprehensive treatment, in order to restore the balance of the body. At the same time, patients themselves also need to pay attention to maintain a good state of mind, regular life and reasonable diet, actively cooperate with the treatment, in order to promote physical recovery.
