Opposite to Kidney yin deficiency, yang is necessary for the liver to
transform the yin energy to yang energy to promote the implantation of
egg into the uterus and kidney is the main organ to regulate each step
of the reproductive function. If there is not enough yang, it may cause
prolong yin phrase as a result of our body needs time to perform each
step of phase I.
I. Symptoms
1. Cold and pain in the lower abdomen during or after menstruation
Since
kidney yang is important to warm and support the uterus for a healthy
conception, deficiency of kidney yang causes cold to accumulate in the
womb which interferes with the normal function of the kidney in
regulating the temperature of the uterus, leading to muscle contraction,
resulting in lower abdominal cramps and pain.
2. Small volume of dark menstrual discharge
Spleen
is important to assist the heart in transporting blood to the
reproductive organs and to support the kidney in nourishing and
moistening the body's blood vessels. Deficiency of yang reduces blood
and fluid in the reproductive organs, leading to a small volume of dark
menstruation.
3. Weak and aching lower back and legs
Yang is
necessary to support the daily activity in the body. Deficiency of yang
causes constriction of the lower back and leg muscles.
II. Causes
1. Colding effect
Eating
cold foods for a prolonged period of time will cause kidney yang
deficiency. Cold foods are yin in nature, after entering the stomach,
our body needs to provide more yang to digest it that depletes the yang
qi.
2. Life style
Some people like to drink cold drink after
taking straight from the refrigerator, eat raw foods, swim in a cold
water, go out a lot in rainy weather or cold water,etc., they will cause
extra yang produced by the body to counter the affect of the cold.

limitation of your physical body. Rigid exercise pushes you body over
limitation and consume, leading to kidney yang deficiency.
