Why do women suffer from asthenia?

It is said that women are made of water. In fact, this reflects that women's physique is weaker than men. Due to factors such as body structure and personal living habits, women are more likely to suffer from asthenia than men. The best age for women is in their teens and twenties, but when they reach the age of 30, especially after giving birth, they will obviously feel that their physique has become worse than before. Usually it manifests as fatigue, lack of qi and blood, spontaneous sweating, dizziness, irritability, etc. In fact, these are symptoms of asthenia. So why do women suffer from asthenia?

1. The formation of various asthenia syndromes due to weak constitution is closely related to weak constitution and poor physique. A weak endowment may be caused by parents who are frail and sickly, old and frail, or lack of nourishment during the fetus, insufficient pregnancy, or improper feeding after birth, resulting in insufficient water, grain, and essence. People with congenital deficiencies and weak constitutions are prone to illness, and are prone to long-term illness after illness, which will cause the internal organs' qi, blood, yin and yang to become increasingly deficient, leading to consumptive disease.

2. Excessive work will damage the five internal organs. Proper work, including mental and physical work, is necessary for a normal life and maintaining health. However, excessive work is harmful to your health, as it will lead to exhaustion and eventually lead to consumptive disease. Among the excessive fatigue, overwork of mind and overindulgence in lust are more common. Excessive mental strain such as depression, worry, unresolved thoughts, and unfulfilled desires can easily cause the heart to lose nourishment, the spleen to lose its healthy function, damage the heart and spleen, and cause deficiency of Qi and blood, which will eventually lead to asthenia over time. However, early marriage, multiple births, excessive sexual intercourse, and frequent sexual immorality can easily lead to kidney essence deficiency and kidney qi deficiency, which will eventually lead to asthenia.

3. Improper diet can damage the spleen and stomach. Overeating, imbalance between hunger and fullness, picky eating, malnutrition, excessive drinking and other reasons can all lead to damage to the spleen and stomach, inability to produce the essence of food and water, insufficient sources of qi and blood, and lack of nourishment to the internal organs and meridians, which can lead to fatigue over time.

4. After a serious illness lasts for a long time, if the illness is not properly treated, the evil qi will be excessive, the internal organs will be damaged, and the vital energy will be difficult to recover in a short time, which will lead to exhaustion over time. For those who suffer from chronic illness and become exhausted, the nature of the disease varies in the degree to which the body's qi, blood, yin and yang are depleted. If a fever lasts for a long time, it will consume yin blood; if a cold disease lasts for a long time, it will damage qi and yang; if blood stasis lasts for a long time, new blood will not be produced; or if the patient is not properly adjusted after the illness, it will be difficult for the vital energy to recover, all of which can develop into asthenia.
