In 2005, Dr. Chuang—renowned across Taiwan, Greater China, and Japan—published the three-volume series Women’s Three Springs (Onna no Sanshun), covering key stages: first menstruation, pregnancy & postpartum, and menopause. With clear, insightful analysis of these critical periods for body rebalancing, the series deeply resonated with women readers and remained influential until it went out of print six years ago.
While many know her for cancer prevention and women’s wellness, few realize her extensive research and unique insights into men’s health. One of the founding missions of the Chuang Shu Chi Foundation was to support the health of all people.
After her passing, I compiled her handwritten notes, consultation records from her time in Japan, and published works—along with case studies and discussions we shared. From these, the idea for Men’s & Women’s Three Springs was born.
