bubble_chart Formula Principles
During pregnancy, when wind-heat pathogens invade the blood chamber, it can cause instability in the pregnancy, leading to menorrhagia and bloody stools. The treatment should focus on clearing heat and dispelling wind. In the prescription, Skullcap Root clears internal heat, while Saposhnikovia Root disperses external wind. These two herbs work together to resolve both wind and heat, harmonize the meridians, stop the bleeding, and stabilize the pregnancy.
