Abstract

The concept of temperament, expressed as Temperament in the Unani medical system and Mizaj (Temperament) in Persian medicine, is expressed as something that liquids and similar things mix with. Temperament is an important concept that is innate and plays a role in the formation of personal and physical characteristics with the effect of the qualities of the four elements, namely heat, cold, dryness and wetness, on each other, as well as affecting disease tendencies and health. Temperament allows each individual to be recognized and classified according to their morphological, physiological and psychological characteristics. According to Persian medicine, it is stated that the basis of diseases is the deterioration and imbalance of the person's temperament. In this study, the relationship between women's health in the light of mizaj was examined. Indeed, mizaj (temperament) is an important issue to be considered in individualized treatment for the protection of women's health, and it is thought that it can shed light on practical applications such as health protection and disease prevention.

探索女性健康：气质视角

气质的概念，在乌纳尼医学系统中被表达为temperament，在波斯医学中被表达为Mizaj（气质），被表达为液体和类似的东西混合在一起。气质是先天的一个重要概念，通过热、冷、干、湿四要素的相互作用，影响疾病倾向和健康，在个人和身体特征的形成中起作用。气质可以根据每个个体的形态、生理和心理特征对其进行识别和分类。根据波斯医学，疾病的基础是人的性情的恶化和不平衡。在这项研究中，研究了mizaj与妇女健康之间的关系。事实上，mizaj（气质）是在保护妇女健康的个体化治疗中需要考虑的一个重要问题，人们认为它可以阐明诸如健康保护和疾病预防等实际应用。
