Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is defined as endocrinologic diseases among reproductive-age women caused by undeveloped follicles clumping on the ovaries that interferes with the function of the normal ovaries associated with a high risk for metabolic disorder(1) as resulting of enlarged ovaries(2), leading to hormone imbalance(excessive androgen and anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) )(1)(3)(4)(5), induced Hirsutism(6)(7), reproductive disorder(10(12)), risks of type 2 diabetes(9)(10)(11), metabolic syndrome(10)(12) and early cardiovasular disease(8)(13), acne(10)(14), endometrial cancer(18)(19),weight gain and obesity(15)(16)(17). The syndrome effects over 5% of women population or 1 in 20 women. Unfortunately, according to studies, women with PCOs after the reproductive age, are associated to continuously increase risk of type II diabetes, with no increasing altered glucose tolerance(20), CVD and hypertension(21).

In Traditional Chinese Perspective
While conventional medicine focus of using synthetic medication to induce ovulation and assisted artificial insemination for infertility couple, if the medicine fail, traditional Chinese medicine views polycystic ovarian syndrome in different approaches. Polycystic ovary syndrome, according to traditional Chinese medicine is a medical condition characterized by accumulative of fluid over a prolonged period of time causes of dampness and phlegms(1247a)(1247b) build up on the ovaries due to the effects of vary differentiations, affecting not only the women’s menstrual cycle, but also ovulation and fertility(1247a)(1247b).

PCOs Treatment according traditional Chinese medicine
Depending to differentiation, most common diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome can be classified into

Kidney yang deficiency

Along with common symptoms mentioned above, women with PCOs diagnosed with kidney yang deficiency may also experience yang vacuity induced cold expressive syndrome, including lumbago, cold limbs, fatigue, cold aversion, feverish sensation in chest, palms and soles(1573), difficulty in urination, enuresis, incontinence, declining libido and edema(1574) as a result of kidneys no longer perform their function in store fluid to moister and warm the body for healthy function in the body's organs and tissues, inducing adrenal insufficient chronic lower back pain(1575)(1580), depression(1575), hypothyroidism(1579)(1575), nephritis(1578)(1575), ...(1575), leading to failure in transform damp heat expression, promoted accentuation of inflammatory development of phlegm(1583). Kidney yang deficiency has shown to alter carbohydrate and lipid metabolisms (free fatty acids, 1-monolinoleoylglycerol, and cholesterol), gut microbiota metabolism (indole-3-propionic acid), indued anovulatory infertility( 1581) and hypertension(1582) of which related to symptoms of PCOs(1576)(1577).

Foods for kidney yang deficiency

Kidney yang deficiency can be managed and treated in part with a diet of fresh and cooked warming foods.

5. Royal jelly
Royal jelly is produced by the worker bees and fed to bee larves for 3 days to stimulate healthy and radpid growth and life for the queen to ensure the endless production of eggs, used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat malnutrition in children(1653), cognitive decline(1654) and sarcopenia due to ageing(1655), leukopenia(1656), liver diseases(1657)(1658)(1659), ulcer(1660)(1661), bronchial asthma(1662)(1663), diabetes(1664)(1665), high blood pressure(1666)(1667), cognitive impairment(1668), functional uterine abnormality(1669) through its estrogenic activitie(1670), irregular menses(1571) and functional infertility(1672) by enhancing function of spleen, liver and kidney channels(1653).

Chemical constituent(1653)
1. Inositol 
2. 6-Biopterin 
3. Flavin adenine dinucleotide
4. Flavin mononucleotide
5. Kynurenine
6. Albumin 
7. β and γ globulin
8. Insoluble protein
9. Acetylcholine
10. Stearin
11. Phospholipid
12. Adenine nucleotides 
13. Arginine
14. Aspartic acid
15. Glutamic acid
16. Lysine
17. Proline
18. β-alanine
18. Etc.

Epidemiological studies suggested that royal jelly also displays certain metabolic syndrome effects, such as glucose tolerance(1673), anti insulin resistance(1677)(1679), anti hypertension(1677), anti-hypercholesterolemic(1654)(1675) and anti-hyperglycemic(1654)(1678), induced weight loss(1676) and reduced risk of  symptoms of fatigue( 1682), depression(1683) and anxiety(1683) and complication, such as diabetes(1678), breast cancer(1684)(1685) through anti-inflammatory(1654), anti-oxidative(1654) and immune defense(1674) activities.
According to joint study by Urmia University and Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, royal jelly also improved reproductive parameters(1680)(1681) such as testicular weight, sperm count, viability, motility, deformity, DNA integrity, chromatin quality, serum testosterone and testicular tissue MDA levels in male diabetic rats(1680).

                Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is defined as endocrinologic diseases among reproductive-age women caused by undeveloped follicles clumping on the ovaries that interferes with the function of the normal ovaries associated with a high risk for metabolic disorder(1) as resulting of enlarged ovaries(2), leading to hormone imbalance(excessive androgen and anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) )(1)(3)(4)(5), induced Hirsutism(6)(7), reproductive disorder(10(12)), risks of type 2 diabetes(9)(10)(11), metabolic syndrome(10)(12) and early cardiovasular disease(8)(13), acne(10)(14), endometrial cancer(18)(19),weight gain and obesity(15)(16)(17). The syndrome effects over 5% of women population or 1 in 20 women. Unfortunately, according to studies, women with PCOs after the reproductive age, are associated to continuously increase risk of type II diabetes, with no increasing altered glucose tolerance(20), CVD and hypertension(21).

              In Traditional Chinese Perspective

While conventional medicine focus of using synthetic medication to induce ovulation and assisted artificial insemination for infertility couple, if the medicine fail, traditional Chinese medicine views polycystic ovarian syndrome in different approaches. Polycystic ovary syndrome, according to traditional Chinese medicine is a medical condition characterized by accumulative of fluid over a prolonged period of time causes of dampness and phlegms(1247a)(1247b) build up on the ovaries due to the effects of vary differentiations, affecting not only the women’s menstrual cycle, but also ovulation and fertility(1247a)(1247b).

PCOs Treatment according traditional Chinese medicine
Depending to differentiation, most common diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome can be classified into

           Kidney yang deficiency

Along with common symptoms mentioned above, women with PCOs diagnosed with kidney yang deficiency may also experience yang vacuity induced cold expressive syndrome, including lumbago, cold limbs, fatigue, cold aversion, feverish sensation in chest, palms and soles(1573), difficulty in urination, enuresis, incontinence, declining libido and edema(1574) as a result of kidneys no longer perform their function in store fluid to moister and warm the body for healthy function in the body's organs and tissues, inducing adrenal insufficient chronic lower back pain(1575)(1580), depression(1575), hypothyroidism(1579)(1575), nephritis(1578)(1575), ...(1575), leading to failure in transform damp heat expression, promoted accentuation of inflammatory development of phlegm(1583). Kidney yang deficiency has shown to alter carbohydrate and lipid metabolisms (free fatty acids, 1-monolinoleoylglycerol, and cholesterol), gut microbiota metabolism (indole-3-propionic acid), indued anovulatory infertility( 1581) and hypertension(1582) of which related to symptoms of PCOs(1576)(1577).

Foods for kidney yang deficiency

Kidney yang deficiency can be managed and treated in part with a diet of fresh and cooked warming foods.

Walnut, nut of tree, including Brazil nuts, cashews, hazelnuts (filberts), macadamia nuts, pecans, pine nuts, pistachios, etc,.. is the genus Juglans  belongings to the family Juglandaceae, used in traditional medicine to sooth skin(1647)(1650), and to treat toothache(1648), rheumatism(1648), fungal infections(1648)., anti neuro-aging(1649), allergic dermatitis(1651), etc,... Its bark is also claim to promote blood purifying(1652), anticancer(1652), depurative(1652), diuretic(1652) and laxative(1652) activities, according to Jamia Hamdard (Hamdard University).

Phytochemical constituents
1. Ferulic acid
2. Vanillic acid
3. Coumaric acid
4. Syringic acid
5. Myricetin
6. Regiolon
7. Ellagic
8. Gallic acid 
9. Alpha-linoleic acid (ALA)
10. Arginine
11. Histidine
12. Isoleucine
13. Leucine
14. Lysine
15. Methionine
16. Phenylanine
17. Threonine
18. Tryptophan
19. Valine
20. Etc. (1638).

Consumption of walnuts and other nuts have been found to be associated with reduced risk of metabolic syndrome, including lowered total cholesterol and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels(1639), probably through its effects related to inflammation, oxidative stress, and endothelial function(1639), enhanced weight loss(1640), increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels(1640), reduced systolic blood pressure(1641) and fasting blood sugar (FBS)(1642), etc,.. and its complications including diabetes(1643)(1644) and cardiovascular disease(1645)(1646).

       Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
 
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is defined as endocrinologic diseases among reproductive-age women caused by undeveloped follicles clumping on the ovaries that interferes with the function of the normal ovaries associated with a high risk for metabolic disorder(1) as resulting of enlarged ovaries(2), leading to hormone imbalance(excessive androgen and anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) )(1)(3)(4)(5), induced Hirsutism(6)(7), reproductive disorder(10(12)), risks of type 2 diabetes(9)(10)(11), metabolic syndrome(10)(12) and early cardiovasular disease(8)(13), acne(10)(14), endometrial cancer(18)(19),weight gain and obesity(15)(16)(17). The syndrome effects over 5% of women population or 1 in 20 women. Unfortunately, according to studies, women with PCOs after the reproductive age, are associated to  continuously increase risk of type II diabetes, with no increasing altered glucose tolerance(20), CVD and hypertension(21).
 
     In Traditional Chinese Perspective

 
While conventional medicine focus of using synthetic medication to induce ovulation and assisted artificial insemination for infertility couple, if the medicine fail, traditional Chinese medicine views polycystic ovarian syndrome in different approaches. Polycystic ovary syndrome, according to traditional Chinese medicine is a medical condition characterized by accumulative of fluid over a prolonged period of time causes of dampness and phlegms(1247a)(1247b) build up on the ovaries due to the effects of vary differentiations, affecting not only the women’s menstrual cycle, but also ovulation and fertility(1247a)(1247b).
 
PCOs Treatment according traditional Chinese medicine
Depending to differentiation, most common diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome can be classified into


                      Kidney yang deficiency


Along with common symptoms mentioned above, women with PCOs diagnosed with kidney yang deficiency may also experience yang vacuity induced cold expressive syndrome, including lumbago, cold limbs, fatigue, cold aversion, feverish sensation in chest, palms and soles(1573), difficulty in urination, enuresis, incontinence, declining libido and edema(1574) as a result of kidneys no longer perform their function in store fluid to moister and warm the body for healthy function in the body's organs and tissues, inducing adrenal insufficient chronic lower back pain(1575)(1580), depression(1575), hypothyroidism(1579)(1575), nephritis(1578)(1575), ...(1575), leading to failure in transform damp heat expression, promoted accentuation of inflammatory development of phlegm(1583). Kidney yang deficiency has shown to alter carbohydrate and lipid metabolisms (free fatty acids, 1-monolinoleoylglycerol, and cholesterol), gut microbiota metabolism (indole-3-propionic acid), indued anovulatory infertility( 1581) and hypertension(1582) of which related to symptoms of PCOs(1576)(1577).

       Foods for kidney yang deficiency

 
Kidney yang deficiency can be managed and treated in part with a diet of fresh and cooked warming foods.  

2. Ginger(1616)
Jiang is also known as Ginger root. The acrid and warm herb has been use in TCM as an anti inflammation(1618)(1619)(1620), anti coagulation of platelets(1621)and anti thrombotic(1622), anti allergy(1625)(1626), anti tumors(1627)(1628) and anti hair growth(1629)(1630) lower back painpain(1623)(1624), functional bowel disorders (FBD(1631), etc., as it warms the middle burner and  lungs, rescues yang, transforms phlegm by enhancing the functions of lung, spleen and stomach channels(1617).

Chemical constituents
1. 2-heptanol
2. 1,3,3-trimethyltricyclo[2,2,1,0] heptane
3. Tricycline
4. β-fenchene
5. β-pinene
6. 5-hepten-2-one-6-mehtyl
7. Myrcene
8. Octanal
9. α-thujene
10. Zingiberol
11. Zingiberene
12. α-curcumene
13. linalool
14. Cineole
15. Phellandrene
16. Camphene
17. Etc.(1617)

Strong evidences from epidemiological literature suggested that ginger also consist the properties of anti obesity(1632)(1636), anti insulin resistance(1632)01636), anti (1634)(1636), anti dyslipidaemia(1634)(1636), anti diabetes(1635)(1637) and reduced risk the metabolic syndrome causes of cardiovascular complications(1634), etc,....
Its major chemical component, [6]-gingerol analogue (6G), and extracts in rat study exhibited the protective effect against the development of metabolic syndrome(1633)(1636), through significantly reduced body weight gain(1633)(1636), fat accumulation(1633)(1636), and circulating levels of insulin(1636)(1633) and leptin(1633).

       Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

 
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is defined as endocrinologic diseases among reproductive-age women caused by undeveloped follicles clumping on the ovaries that interferes with the function of the normal ovaries associated with a high risk for metabolic disorder(1) as resulting of enlarged ovaries(2), leading to hormone imbalance(excessive androgen and anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) )(1)(3)(4)(5), induced Hirsutism(6)(7), reproductive disorder(10(12)), risks of type 2 diabetes(9)(10)(11), metabolic syndrome(10)(12) and early cardiovasular disease(8)(13), acne(10)(14), endometrial cancer(18)(19),weight gain and obesity(15)(16)(17). The syndrome effects over 5% of women population or 1 in 20 women. Unfortunately, according to studies, women with PCOs after the reproductive age, are associated to  continuously increase risk of type II diabetes, with no increasing altered glucose tolerance(20), CVD and hypertension(21).
 
     In Traditional Chinese Perspective

 
While conventional medicine focus of using synthetic medication to induce ovulation and assisted artificial insemination for infertility couple, if the medicine fail, traditional Chinese medicine views polycystic ovarian syndrome in different approaches.
Polycystic ovary syndrome, according to traditional Chinese medicine is a medical condition characterized by accumulative of fluid over a prolonged period of time causes of dampness and phlegms(1247a)(1247b) build up on the ovaries due to the effects of vary differentiations, affecting not only the women’s menstrual cycle, but also ovulation and fertility(1247a)(1247b).
 
PCOs Treatment according traditional Chinese medicine

Depending to differentiation, most common diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome can be classified into


                      Kidney yang deficiency

Along with common symptoms mentioned above, women with PCOs diagnosed with kidney yang deficiency may also experience yang vacuity induced cold expressive syndrome, including
lumbago, cold limbs, fatigue, cold aversion, feverish sensation in chest, palms and soles(1573),
difficulty in urination, enuresis, incontinence, declining libido and edema(1574) as a result of kidneys no longer perform their function in store fluid to moister and warm the body for healthy function in the body's organs and tissues, inducing adrenal insufficient chronic lower back pain(1575)(1580), depression(1575), hypothyroidism(1579)(1575), nephritis(1578)(1575), ...(1575), leading to failure in transform damp heat expression, promoted accentuation of inflammatory development of phlegm(1583).
Kidney yang deficiency has shown to alter carbohydrate and lipid metabolisms (free fatty acids, 1-monolinoleoylglycerol, and cholesterol), gut microbiota metabolism (indole-3-propionic acid), indued anovulatory infertility( 1581) and hypertension(1582) of which related to symptoms of PCOs(1576)(1577).

       Foods for kidney yang deficiency

Kidney yang deficiency can be managed and treated in part with a diet of fresh and cooked warming foods.
1, Garlic
Garlic (Allium sativum) is a species in the onion genus, belonging to family Amaryllidaceae, native to central Asia. It has been used popularly in traditional and Chinese medicine in treating common cold(1587)(1588) and flu(1589)(1590), blood pressure(1591)(1592), cholesterol levels(1593)(1594), natural antibiotic(1595)(1596), cancers(1597)(1598)(1599) etc....(1585).
According to traditional Chinese medicine, the acrid, warm herbal da suan expresses its tonification of yang through enhancing function of large intestine, lung, spleen, stomach channels(1586).

 Chemical constituents(1586)
1. Allyl methyl sulfide
2. Diallyl sulfide
3. 6-methyl-1-thio-2
4. 4-cyclohexadiene
5. Dimethyl sulfide
6. Divinyl sulfide
7. Dimethyl disulfide
8. Allyl methyl disulfide
9. Dithiocyclopentene
10. 5-methyl-1
11. 2-dithio-3-cyclopentene
12. Allyl propyl disulfide
13. 2-dithio-3-cyclopentene
14. 4-methyl-1
15. 3-vinyl-1
16. 2-dithio-4-cyclohexene
17. 3-vinyl-1
18. 2-dithio-5 cyclohexene
19. Cysteine,
20. Histidine
21. Lysine
22. Etc.

Epidemiological  literature suggested that garlic also displays anti metabolic syndrome(1602)(1603), including obesity(16000)(1601), elevated blood pressure(1591)(1592), elevated fasting plasma glucose(1604)(1605), high serum triglycerides(1604)(1602), and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)(1593)(1594)(1604) levels, insulin resistance(1606)(1607), proinflammation(1609)(1608) and renal damage(1610)(1611), reduced risk of cardiovascular disease(1612)(1613) and diabetes, probably through its effects on carbohydrate and lipid(1601) modulation via anti inflammatory(1606) and antioxidant(1603)(1606) mechanisms. All these factors may be the reasons of which garlic was recommended by modern traditional Chinese medicine doctors for management and treatment of PCOs' women who were diagnosed with kidney yang deficiency.
