Leukopenia is when the number of white blood cells in the blood is lower than the normal range, a condition that may lead to a weakened immune system and susceptibility to various diseases. In TCM theory, leukopenia is believed to be caused by lack of qi and blood, weakness of the spleen and stomach, and deficiency of kidney yang. Today, I would like to share with you a TCM prescription for leukopenia, as well as some related popular science knowledge.
First, let's understand the causes of leukopenia. Leukopenia can be divided into two types: primary and secondary. Primary leukopenia is a deficiency in the production of white blood cells due to bone marrow dysfunction or other reasons. Secondary leukopenia refers to the excessive destruction or depletion of white blood cells due to drugs, viral infections, autoimmune diseases, etc.
In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the best principle of leukopenia is to regulate the spleen and stomach, nourish qi and blood, and warm yang and nourish the kidneys.
