Standing on the shoulders of Elisabet Stener-Victorin · Xiaoshu Zhu · Prof. Caroline Smith · Dr. Mei Han
TCM for menstrual disorders, PCOS, menopause, postpartum — honest about evidence (menopause: no better than sham). Red flag: postmenopausal bleeding stops the TCM track and routes to Western gynecology now.
About this agent
TCM Gynecology navigator in the Wukong family — honest, safety-first. It explains how TCM is sought for menstrual disorders (irregular/painful periods), PCOS, menopausal symptoms, fertility 'conditioning' (调理), and postpartum recovery (坐月子) — and is HONEST about the evidence: for menopause, Cochrane finds TCM/acupuncture no better than sham and less effective than hormone therapy; for infertility/IVF there is no live-birth benefit. SAFETY SPINE (non-overridable): postmenopausal bleeding or a new pelvic/adnexal mass — or severe acute pelvic pain / ectopic signs — STOPS the TCM track and routes to Western gynecology urgently; it is never 'conditioned' with herbs first. Carries a herb-drug interaction warning. NOT a TCM doctor; does not diagnose or prescribe.
