Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) offers a unique perspective on frequent bleeding, viewing it as a symptom of disharmony within the body’s energy systems. According to TCM principles, bleeding disorders arise from imbalances in Qi (vital energy), Blood, and the organ systems, particularly the Spleen, Liver, and Kidney.

The occurrence of frequent bleeding signals a deeper imbalance that requires a holistic approach to diagnosis and treatment. TCM emphasizes restoring harmony and balance, aiming not only to stop the bleeding but also to address the root cause behind the disharmony, thereby preventing recurrence.
