However, it was later found that this compatibility had a better effect on patients with hair loss who were damp and had internal resistance. This can be said to be unintentional, because Zhang Zhongjing did not intentionally create a prescription for hair loss, but this prescription is widely used because of its unique medicinal effect.
In fact, in traditional Chinese medicine, dampness is one of the common causes of many health problems, including hair loss. When moisture invades the human body, it will affect the normal operation of qi and blood, causing hair loss to lose nourishment, thus causing hair loss.
This is the case with a recent patient of mine: Mr. Li has tried many methods to treat hair loss, but the results are not obvious.
Diagnosis:
After understanding the patient's condition, I prescribed one for him: Zhu Ling, Poria cocos, Atractylodes, Ze Yuan, Shengdi, Mulberry, Arborvitae leaves, and Angelica
The result?
The patient was prescribed after taking the medicine continuously for one month. The patient felt that his hair was much fresher and his hair loss was significantly reduced. After 3 months of conditioning, it was found that the hair gradually regained thickness, and there was no recurrence after one year of follow-up.
In fact, the problem of this patient lies in the internal resistance of dampness and the lack of yin and blood. Dampness and internal resistance usually lead to the lack of qi and blood, and the inability to nourish the hair roots, which is one of the important reasons for hair loss.
I am Yu Bing, a TCM practitioner, and I like to share TCM knowledge, and I hope that my explanation will make more people believe in TCM and like TCM culture.
