This paper proposes that endometriosis arises from ascending Qi of the Chong meridian and blood stasis obstructing collaterals, which transforms into mass over time.

This paper proposes a traditional Chinese medicine perspective on the pathogenesis of endometriosis, identifying ascending Qi of the Chong meridian and blood stasis obstructing the collaterals as the core mechanisms. The authors argue that during menstruation, factors such as weak constitution, exogenous pathogens, or emotional distress can cause visceral dysfunction, leading to Qi ascent and the formation of blood stasis. Over time, this accumulated stasis transforms into masses, resulting in the clinical presentation of the disease. This paper is centrally about endometriosis, specifically framing its etiology through the lens of traditional Chinese medicine concepts regarding meridian dysfunction and blood stasis.

Abstract

According to the characteristics and clinical manifestations of Endometriosis,we found the core pathogenesis of endometriosis is ascending Qi of Chong meridian and obstruction of collaterals or meridians due to blood stasis.The Qi of Chong Meridian is usually strong during menstrual period.When the patient get weak body constitution,or attacked by exogenous pathogenic factors or intemal damage by the excessive Seven Emotions,it will cause dysfunction of viscera,which causes Qi of Chong Meridian ascending in period and induces forming of blood stasis inside body to obstruct collamrals.Long term of stasis blood can be transformed to mass and eventually leads to endometriosis.
