Discussion on Synchronization of Liver, Spleen and Kidney in Treating Endometriosis from Blood Stasis

This paper discusses, from a traditional Chinese medicine framework, how “blood stasis” is proposed as a core etiology and how dysfunction of the liver, spleen, and kidney contributes to endometriosis, with additional linkage to irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, infertility, and mass-like presentations. It synthesizes theory-based arguments such as liver “hiding blood and ensuring flow,” spleen “transporting water and maintaining blood circulation,” and alleged spleen roles in immune and endocrine regulation, while also citing modern observations in endometriosis patients of altered microcirculation and a hypercoagulable state that may improve after “blood stasis” treatments, and noting that endocrine disorders can lead to endometriosis-like symptom series. A stated limitation is that the work is largely theoretical/discussion-based and relies on interpretive TCM mechanisms rather than presenting new controlled experimental or clinical data. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically, it explains endometriosis through the TCM concept of blood stasis and argues for “synchronization” of liver–spleen–kidney in its pathogenesis and treatment rationale.
