Prolapse of uterus

Prolapse of the uterus usually appears after childbirth in women with many children.
Mild cases are called vaginocele with prolapse off vaginal wall, and severe cases are
called prolapse of uterus with the uterine cervix protruding out of the vaginal orifice.
In traditional Chinese medicine this is considered caused by damage to the uterus
vessels due to descending spleen qi or a deficiency of the kidney in failing to keep the
internal organs in their normal positions.

Differential diagnosis: Patients with descending spleen qi may suffer from prolapse
of uterus out of the vaginal orifice, more pronounced when fatigued, spastic sensation
in lower abdomen, weakness of limbs, shallow breath, no desire to speak, sallow
complexion, pale tongue with thin and white coating, and feeble and thready pulse.
And patients with deficiency of kidney may suffer from prolapse of uterus, soreness
and weakness of waist and legs, spastic sensation in lower abdomen, frequent
urination, dizziness, tinnitus, pink tongue with thin and white coating, and deep and
weak pulse.

areas with the pad of thumb 3-4 times, or with the medial border of
flexed index ginger to scratch or press 3-4 times (Fig. 81).

Meridianal acupoint: A reinforcing technique of acupuncture with moxibustion is
applied at Slhuiquan (KI 5) acupoint, the needle is retained for 15-20 minutes, and the
