Your TCM Pattern
Kidney Deficiency
肾虚型 PCOS
Your responses suggest a Kidney Deficiency pattern, one of the most common constitutions seen in PCOS. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the kidneys govern reproductive function and hormonal balance. When kidney energy is depleted, the body struggles to maintain regular ovulation and menstrual cycles. You may notice persistent fatigue, feeling cold easily, lower back weakness, and difficulty conceiving.
Recommended Treatment Focus
Acupuncture targeting kidney and ren meridians to restore reproductive vitality, combined with kidney-nourishing herbal formulas. Treatment typically focuses on warming and tonifying the kidneys to support ovulation and cycle regularity.

Your TCM Pattern
Phlegm-Dampness Accumulation
痰湿型 PCOS
Your responses indicate a Phlegm-Dampness pattern, frequently associated with the metabolic aspects of PCOS. In TCM, when the spleen fails to transform and transport fluids properly, dampness and phlegm accumulate, disrupting ovarian function and metabolism. This pattern commonly presents with stubborn weight gain, bloating, heavy periods with clots, and a general feeling of heaviness or foggy thinking.
Recommended Treatment Focus
Acupuncture combined with phlegm-resolving herbal formulas and structured dietary therapy. Treatment aims to strengthen spleen function, resolve dampness, and restore metabolic balance, which often leads to natural weight regulation and improved ovulation.

Your TCM Pattern
Liver Qi Stagnation
肝气郁结型 PCOS
Your answers point toward a Liver Qi Stagnation pattern, which is closely linked to the hormonal and emotional dimensions of PCOS. In TCM, the liver is responsible for the smooth flow of qi and blood throughout the body, including the reproductive system. When liver qi becomes stuck, it can trigger irregular cycles, hormonal acne, excess androgens, mood swings, and tension-related symptoms like headaches and jaw clenching.
Recommended Treatment Focus
Acupuncture focused on liver and gallbladder meridians to unblock stagnant qi, paired with liver-soothing herbal formulas. Treatment addresses both the physical symptoms (cycle regulation, skin clearing) and the emotional component (stress, irritability) simultaneously.
