The *Neijing* (Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon) states that diseases of the Yangming channel (Stomach and Large Intestine) transmit to the Heart and Spleen. This manifests as difficult-to-disclose ailments (such as sexual dysfunction or emotional depression), and in women, amenorrhea (absence of menstruation). When this condition transmits further, it is called "Wind Wasting" (Feng Xiao). Diseases originating in the intestines and stomach transmit to the Heart and Spleen.
