Ten Cases Successfully Treated with kuoketsuzai （Drugs for Overcoming oketsu）and Yokukansankachimpihange for Climacteric Women

Abstract

In the treatment of climacteric disorders, evaluation of menopausal women based on personal and overall aspects of their sho condition has been found to be useful. This form of treatment is considered particularly useful for patients who cannot, or do not wish to use hormone replacement therapy (HRT). In this paper, we present the cases of patients who were assessed using sho and the Kampo medical index, and given successful treatment using kuoketsuzai (drugs for overcoming oketsu) and yokukansankachinpihange.
