From my notes:
Female. Reproductive Deficiency: Dry Skin cold hands and feet. Cycle more than 28 days (takes longer to build up estrogen). Water retention before menses in feet and hands. Craves sweets before menses. Missed periods. Slow starting with cramps. Menstruation lengthy with cramps. Frequent class two pap smears. Weakened cervical membrane. History of pelvic inflammatory disease. Estrogen needed at all times in moderate quantities in order to stimulate the regeneration of cervical tissue - always in contact with flora. Miscarriage, problem pregnancy. Period late with altitude change. Tried but could not handle birth control pills. Frequent candida type infections. Frequent herpes outbreaks. Liver deficiency often present. Anabolic peak of days 21-24 poorly handled, pelvic congestion. Sick a lot. Under stress.
Herbs for deficiency in both sexes are for better utilization of steroids, better pelvic circulation or effect hypothalamic and pituitary connection. Dong quia - anabolic stimulant for deficiency. Panax secondarily. Dong quia is more focused in increasing uptake of estrogen or testosterone. Circulatory stimulants...
