Since the balance of kidney yin and kidney yang is important in
maintaining the kidney function in qi and fluid distribution, if it'
function is disrupted, pathological changes take place and illness
occurs. Kidney yang deficiency in traditional Chinese medicine, is
defined as condition of deficiency of vital yang energy due to intake of
cool and cold or/ and working in cold environment for a prolonged
period of time.
Since
the yin phrase is dominated by yin with subordinated yang, deficiency
of yang may increase the risk of fluid accumulation and lower body
temperature thus decreasing BBT temperature in this phase

Working
in a cold environment or/ and eating cool and cold foods for a
prolonged period of time will cause depletion of yang qi in the body as a
result of yang qi constantly needed to counter the effect of cold in
or/and outside the body, leading to kidney yang deficiency.
2. Life style
Some
people does not like to dress warm in the cold weather, exposed
themselves in the cold winter will cause the depletion of yang in the
body.
3. Excessive exercise
Exercise is yang in nature,
moderate exercise helps to increase blood flow and distribute yang to
the entire body, but rigid exercise causes over consumption of yang qi,
leading to kidney yang deficiency.
4. Frequently sexual activity
Kidney
Jing is vital for controlling the function of kidney in qi
distribution. Since women are considered as yin in nature and sexual
activity is the opposite. Frequently sexual activity drains the kidney
jing and the yang in the body, leading to kidney jing and yang
deficiency and the fall of BBT temperature.

is a biological process that we can not stop. Although women is
considered as dominate with yang subordinate, aging can cause depletion
of yang qi slowly.
