Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Zhang Xiuhong
Common symptoms of excessive liver fire in women include emotional instability, dizziness, menstrual irregularities, insomnia with vivid dreams, bitter taste in the mouth, and dry mouth.
1. Emotional instability: Women with excessive liver fire often struggle to control their emotions, becoming easily angered, irritable, or upset over minor issues.
2. Dizziness: Excessive liver fire consumes liver yin, leading to hyperactivity of liver yang and insufficient nourishment of the head by qi and blood, resulting in feelings of dizziness and vertigo.
3. Menstrual irregularities: Internal disturbance of the Chong and Ren meridians by liver fire can cause blood and qi disorders, potentially leading to early menstruation, increased menstrual flow, or prolonged menstrual periods.
4. Insomnia with vivid dreams: Excessive liver fire can disturb the mind, causing mental restlessness and insomnia.
5. Bitter taste and dry mouth: Excessive liver fire can interfere with the normal excretion and metabolism of bile, causing bile to rise to the mouth and resulting in a bitter taste.
If these symptoms occur, it is recommended to promptly adjust lifestyle and dietary habits, and seek medical advice for proper management and treatment when necessary.
