bubble_chart Formula Principles

Postpartum blood stasis affects the liver and stomach, impairing their ability to transform and transport, leading to stomach qi ascending counterflow. This results in chest and abdominal distension and fullness, as well as difficulty swallowing. In the prescription, Peach Kernel breaks blood stasis to moisten stomach dryness; when stir-fried until black, it does not harm healthy blood. Hematite subdues counterflow qi to calm the rising yang, and vinegar calcination guides it into the liver. Vinegar-boiled Rhubarb Rhizome is used to thoroughly cleanse the blood. Once the static blood is resolved, stomach qi will harmonize, abdominal distension and fullness will naturally subside, and normal eating will be restored.
