Postpartum static blood rushes to the spleen, causing abdominal distension and fullness, with a deep and sluggish pulse.

bubble_chart Formula Principles

Postpartum spleen deficiency leads to qi stagnation and unresolved blood stasis, causing persistent distension and fullness due to upward rebellion in the middle. The formula includes White Atractylodes Rhizome to strengthen the spleen and resolve distension, Submature Bitter Orange to regulate qi and harmonize the middle to alleviate fullness, Red Peony Root to break blood stasis and remove stasis, Cassia Bark to warm the blood and meridians, Blast-Fried Ginger to warm the middle and dispel cold stagnation, and Villous Amomum Fruit to harmonize the stomach and eliminate static blood. Decoction taken warm helps strengthen the spleen and qi, rapidly transforming static blood, thereby resolving distension and fullness.
