Investigating the Relationship Between Body Constitution as Defined Under Traditional Chinese Medicine and Vertigo in Women in Taiwan
Unbalanced constitution types were independently associated with a higher risk of vertigo in women, alongside age, migraine, and endometrial polyps. These findings suggest that the constitution serves as an important underlying susceptibility factor. Incorporating constitution assessment into routine health evaluation may facilitate earlier identification of at-risk women and provide a foundation for preventive or constitution-balancing strategies in clinical care.
