According to the theory of constitution and disease prevention of Chinese medicine, kidney deficiency,lack of nourishment of the Thoroughfare Vessel and the Conception Vessel as well as qi sufficiency and hlood deficiency are taken as the main features of body constitutions of women during menopausal period. Acupuncture-rnoxihustion treatment before or in the early stage of menopausal period are discussed initially. Methods of tonifying the kidney and regulate qi and blood are held as the main treating principles. Acupuncture points such as San-yinjiao （SP 6）, Shenshu （BL23）, Guanyuan （CV 4） and Baihui （GV 20） are adopted as the main points. And proper stimulation of needling and moxibustion are applied.
