Sexual Functions
Western Medicine
Since the sexual meridian focuses on growth, both physical and psychological, our sexual meridian in western medicine centers on the endocrine system. The endocrine system manages the body’s hormone production, mood, and male/female organs.
Eastern Medicine
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the conception vessel is the ruler of all feminine yin energy in the body. The meridian runs down the front of the body. In Traditional Chinese medicine, the sexual meridian works closely with all of the yin meridians, but none more so than the kidney and lungs. In women, the “Sea of Qi” regulates the uterus, menstruation, menopause, and pregnancy.
