How to Use Ginkgo Seeds (White Fruits) to Treat Gynecological Diseases

Ginkgo seeds are not specifically indicated for the treatment of gynecological diseases, and their consumption should be cautious, as improper use may cause poisoning. If considering ginkgo seeds as an adjunctive treatment method, the following approaches are recommended:

1. Decoction for oral administration: Ginkgo seeds can be decocted with other Chinese herbs for oral administration, which may help clear heat and detoxify, and relieve itching while nourishing the skin, suitable for symptoms such as vulvar itching.

2. Powdering for oral administration: Ginkgo seeds can be ground into powder and taken orally directly, or combined with other herbs such as licorice and astragalus. This may help nourish the lungs and kidneys, reduce leukorrhea, and improve symptoms such as excessive, yellow-colored, thick vaginal discharge.

3. Boiling for drinking: Drinking water boiled with ginkgo seeds can help relieve coughing and wheezing due to lung deficiency, reduce leukorrhea, and control frequent urination.

4. Cooking as food: Ginkgo seeds can also be cooked with other ingredients, such as pork stomach, Sichuan pepper, and black pepper, which may assist in the treatment of gynecological conditions.

5. Moderate consumption: The daily intake should not exceed ten seeds, and they should be consumed cooked after removing the shell and core.

6. Combination with dietary therapy: They can be stewed with coix seed, lotus seeds, and other ingredients to help improve abnormal vaginal discharge.

However, ginkgo seeds should not replace standard medical treatment. If suffering from gynecological diseases, especially inflammation, tumors, or other conditions, timely medical consultation is advised, and standardized treatment should be conducted under a doctor's guidance. Dietary therapy should only be used as an adjunct and should not be overly relied upon.
