The major cause of skipping menstration is fatigue. Especially a woman with weak liver often experiences skipped menstration for one or two months. In case of over 3 months of skipping, it is called as amenorrhea.
Meanwhile, finger nail abnormality such as Beau's line or others is also caused by the weakness of liver. So amenorrhea and Beau's line have common pathology relating to weak liver.
Nail is a derivative of skin. Skin is controlled by the Lung Ki. So the nail abnormality means the liver and the lung are weak. The fooowing case proves this pathlogy.
