Regarding "Re Lao" (Heat Consumption) in women, it is caused by heat accumulation and stagnation in the Heart and Lung, damaging Qi and Blood. This leads to disharmony of Qi and Blood, stagnation in the Zang-Fu organs, and internal accumulation of heat toxins that cannot be vented or circulated. Symptoms include mental restlessness and irritability, flushed cheeks, headache, dry and gritty eyes, dry lips, intense heat in the four limbs, incessant thirst and irritability, sores in the mouth and tongue, lethargy and drowsiness with little desire to rise, loss of appetite, and generalized body aches. Sometimes there is palpitations (Xin Zheng), sometimes night sweats, and gradual emaciation of the skin and muscles; hence it is called Re Lao.
