How to treat dryness and sweating

Everyone's physical condition is different. Some people sweat particularly easily, and their hands and feet also sweat in winter. How to regulate the dryness and sweating? These people should pay attention to their living and eating habits. Usually, you should eat light vegetarian food, eat less raw and cold food, and pay more attention to exercise. You can develop the habit of running every day. In addition, you can eat more fruits and vegetables that nourish yin and promote the production of body fluids.

Lifestyle

Maintaining a harmonious sex life is especially important for women around 50 years old. Some women around 50 years old have not yet completely reached menopause, but their vagina has already atrophied, and symptoms such as excessive sweating and irritability are particularly obvious. When asked about the quality of their sex life, their answers were simple: "How can I have the time? I'm so busy with work, who has time for 'that'?" In contrast to these people, there are elderly women in their sixties and seventies who have a very good quality of sex life, without any vaginal atrophy or hot flashes. It can be seen that maintaining sexual life helps maintain the balance of the "cerebral cortex-pituitary-ovary" gonadal axis, slow down reproductive tract atrophy, and maintain estrogen levels. Therefore, a harmonious sex life is the best remedy for treating hot flashes and excessive sweating.

Diet

Women who are prone to hot flashes and sweating a lot should eat more fruits and vegetables that nourish yin and promote the production of body fluids, such as kiwi, pear, banana, water chestnut, celery, tomato, white radish, etc. They can also make porridge with white fungus, yam, lily, wheat, etc., and avoid spicy and stimulating foods. It has been reported that less than 20% of Japanese menopausal women experience hot flashes and excessive sweating, while the incidence of hot flashes and excessive sweating in American menopausal women is as high as 85%. This is related to the high proportion of soy products in the diet of Japanese women. Therefore, you should insist on eating soy products every day.

In addition, you should take time to participate in more physical exercise, such as Tai Chi, Qigong, yoga, brisk walking, etc.; you can also grow flowers, play the piano, paint, cultivate your body and mind, and cheer up your mood, all of which will help alleviate symptoms.

Drug conditioning

If the above two conditioning methods do not work, you can consider taking medication. Oral estrogen is safe and effective in the early menopause (within 4 years after menopause), which is a critical period. If you are past the early menopause, you should choose topical medications, including vaginal medications.

For patients with hot flashes and sweating caused by kidney yin deficiency accompanied by hot hands and feet and thirst, the medicine needs to be taken under the guidance of a doctor.
