A woman’s quality blood energy is her main currency throughout her life.

How she sashays through the decades; her perceived attractiveness in the breeding market (seen as being ‘beautiful or not - long, lustrous locks, hourglass figure, blooming cheeks, sparkling eyes, perfect teeth), her sense of mystery, her serenity and her poise are all manifestations of how well her blood energy supports her.

Modern girls/women seem to favour thinness, and in the attempt to fit into this mold, many are doomed to live very fractious, fragile (mad) existences, as some were just designed to be voluptuous.

Dieting, bulimic and anorexia behaviours extract their toll though not immediately obvious. Often women’s extensive bleeding is considered ‘normal’, but women were designed to have extra qi and blood for these
reproductive years, and the price exacted occurs in later decades.

There is thus widespread acceptance of taking pills to ‘regulate’ menstruation, or even stop it until baby making is desired. This causes a combination of Stuck and deficient Qi and Blood, and is not helpful to a woman’s sense of self or safe to undertake quality baby making.
