Prostate issues are usually seen as an imbalance or stagnation in the Kidney, Liver, and Spleen systems. Here’s how that can show up:
-
Kidney Deficiency: The Kidneys govern the reproductive system. Weak Kidneys = weakened Jing (essence), which can lead to hormonal imbalances and cellular dysfunction.
-
Liver Qi Stagnation: Emotional stress, especially anger or repression, causes Qi to stagnate. This can lead to inflammation and blockages in the lower burner (pelvic region).
-
Damp-Heat Accumulation: Diets high in greasy, spicy, or processed foods create dampness and heat in the body. Over time, this toxic buildup can affect the prostate and even lead to masses or tumors.
🚨 Early Signs of Prostate Imbalance
Signs show up before the disease does. If you notice these, your prostate might need attention:
-
Frequent or difficult urination (especially at night)
-
Weak urine stream
-
Low back pain or knee soreness (Kidney signs)
-
Pelvic fullness or heaviness
-
Fatigue, especially in the afternoon
-
Low libido or sexual dysfunction
-
Emotional stress, frustration, or mood swings (Liver Qi signs)
