ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the changes of Chinese medicine (CM) symptoms, the distri- bution characteristics of CM syndromes, and related neuroendocrine levels in premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) patients. Methods Totally 3 541 female outpatients (18 -45 years old) were inter- viewed by clinical epidemiological questionnaire. According to PMDD diagnostic criteria in DSM-IV , PMDD patients' CM syndromes were identified. Their scores of main symptoms and CM symptoms of common CM syndromes were compared. Contents of 8 neuroendocrine indicators in serum were detected [5- hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) , adrenocorticotropic hormore (ACTH) , angiotensin-II (Ang-II ) , glucocorti- coid (GC), homocysteine (Hcy), melatonin (MLT), nitrogen monoxide (NO), neuropeptide Y (NPY)]. Results Totally 258 PMDD were detected in 3 541 female outpatients (18 -45 years old). The main syn- drome and common syndromes of PMDD patients were reversed invasion of Gan qi syndrome [40.3% (104/258)] and stagnation of Gan qi syndrome [34. 9% (90/258) ], followed by Gan stagnation Pi deficiency syndrome [7.8%(20/258)], Gan stagnation blood stasis syndrome [7.4% (19/258)], Gan stagnation induced fire hyperactivity syndrome [ 6.2% ( 16258 )], Gan stagnation Shen deficiency syndrome [3.1%(8/258)], and Pi-Shen yang deficiency syndrome [0.4%(1258)]. Compared with reversed invasion of Gan qi syndrome, emotional depression and low spirits were main symptoms of stagnation of Gan qi syndrome. Scores for the two symptoms increased (P <0.05). Compared with stagnation of Gan qi syn- drome, irritability, upset, abdominal distension, anxiety, headache, dizziness, insomnia, head distension, bitter mouth, unclear vision were main symptoms of reversed invasion of Gan qi syndrome. Scores for the 10 symptoms increased (P <0.05). Compared with stagnation of Gan qi syndrome, the Hcy level in serum obviously decreased in reversed invasion of Gan qi syndrome (P <0.05). There was no statistical difference in the rest indices (P >0. 05). Conclusions PMDD is closely related to Gan failing to maintain normal flow of qi. Reversed invasion of Gan qi syndrome and stagnation of Gan qi syndrome have different scientif- ic connotations and biological bases. So regulating Gan should be considered as the first choice.
