Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan - 桂 枝 茯 苓丸

Cinnamon & Poria Formula

Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan is the one of the strongest Chinese herbal formulas for invigorating blood, removing stasis and dispelling lower abdominal masses. Earliest records of its use can be found as early as 150-219 A.D where it was first discussed in the Jin Gui Yao lue - Essential Prescriptions for The Golden Cabinet.

It was originally used for all conditions involving pain in the lower abdomen that was more intense when pressure was applied or with the presence of nodules and/or small masses.

One of the biggest differential diagnosis to be made when desciding on utilizing this formula is the color of the menstrual blood. The darker the blood, the more severe the blood stasis is considered. Conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease, irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, postpartum failure of the placenta to descend, tilted uterus, uterine fibroids, infertility and habitual miscarriage are frequently treated with this formula. S

econdary symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, poor sleep, irritability and palpitations, ulcerations of the lower body, thrombosis and prostate hypertrophy where blood stasis was involved are all treated with Gui Zhi Fu Ling Wan.
