从肾论治男性更年期综合征

Discussion on the Treatment of Male Climacteric Syndrome from Kidney

男性更年期综合征发生于男性由中年步入老年的过渡阶段,现代研究认为中老年男子下丘脑-垂体-性腺功能的减退造成了雄激素水平下降,从而产生了一系列综合症状。中医认为先天之本在肾,肾精的充盈与否决定了整体生命活动的盛衰。通过探讨肾中精气对男性更年期综合征发病的影响,为补益肾气在临床中的应用提供一定思路。

Male climacteric syndrome occurs in the transition stage from middle age to old age.Modern studies believe that the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal function of middle and old age men leads to the decline of androgen level,resulting in a series of comprehensive symptoms.Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the origin of birth lies in the kidney,and whether the kidney essence is full or not determines the ebb and flow of the whole life activity.In this paper,the influence of kidney Qi on male climacteric syndrome was discussed to provide some ideas for the clinical application of tonifying kidney qi.
