Professor Cao Yi's experience in the treatment of yinting based on the theory of"prolapse caused by deficiency"
Yinting,or"prolapse of uterus"in western medicine,is a kind of pelvic floor dysfunction disease,which is more common in postmenopausal women.The prevalence rate of the disease is increasing year by year,which has a serious negative impact on the physical and mental health and quality of life of patients.Professor Cao Yi believes that the disease stems from the dysfunction of the spleen,kidney and liver and the hypofunction of the thoroughfare meridian,conception meridian,governor meridian and belt meridian.Deficiency of spleen leads to the weakness of lifting,deficiency of kidney leads to the in-ability of consolidating,deficiency of liver leads to the relaxation of fascia,and deficiency of four meridians leads to loss of nourishment of the uterus.Based on the theory of"prolapse caused by deficiency"and combined with the pathological character-istics of yinting,Prof.Cao Yi skillfully integrates the theories of zangfu differentiation,the twelve meridians and the extraordi-nary meridians.Prof.Cao Yi adopts the combination of acupuncture and medication,supplemented by moxibustion therapy,and focuses on dredging the governor meridian and regulating the conception meridian to nourish Qi and generate blood and reinforc-ing the fundamental and cultivating the vital energy to lifting the viscera,which can achieve harmonization between the body and spirit.Prof.Cao Yi gives full play to the ingenuity of the combination of acupuncture and herbal medicine,with flexible prescrip-tion and exquisite acupuncture technique,resulting in excellent therapeutic effect.His experience can guide the thinking of dif-ferentiation and treatment,and future generations should take it as a reference.
