Treatment of uterine fibroids with the method of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis

Over the past six months, Ms. Liu has experienced heavy menstruation, abdominal pain, and blood clots every time she has her period. Her periods are also very long, often lasting half a month, and sometimes even up to 20 days. She also has a lot of leucorrhea, which is yellow in color and has an odor, making Ms. Liu miserable.

She went to two hospitals for examination and was diagnosed with uterine fibroids and right ovarian cysts in both cases. Both hospitals recommended that Ms. Liu undergo surgery, but out of fear of surgery, Ms. Liu refused.

Ms. Liu found a famous local gynecologist. After examination, she found that her tongue coating was thin and yellow, and her pulse was stringy, which was a syndrome of mass in traditional Chinese medicine, caused by mass stagnation, qi stagnation and blood stasis. The doctor started with promoting blood circulation and dispersing blood stasis, resolving phlegm and eliminating mass, and used Danggui Shaoyao San combined with Guizhi Fuling Wan for modification.

Ingredients of the prescription: Angelica sinensis, red peony root, Chuanxiong, Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, Alisma orientalis, Bupleurum chinense, Citrus aurantium, peach kernel, Cortex moutan, oyster, Panax notoginseng, kelp, seaweed, Coix seed, cinnamon twig, and Enoki plum.

After taking more than ten doses of the above medicine, when Ms. Liu's menstruation came again, the menstrual flow had significantly decreased and the abdominal pain had basically disappeared. The doctor added astragalus to the original prescription and asked Ms. Liu to continue taking 20 doses.

After 20 doses of Chinese medicine, Ms. Liu's menstrual cycle has become regular, with moderate menstrual flow and regular menstruation, and the abdominal pain symptoms have disappeared. The doctor advised her to take Guizhi Fuling Pills and Xiaoyao Pills orally, taking Guizhi Fuling Pills in the morning and evening, and Xiaoyao Pills once at noon.

A month later, Ms. Liu came for a follow-up visit again. Her mental state had improved significantly, and the results of the B-ultrasound examination showed that no abnormalities were found in the uterus and both ovaries, and the uterine fibroids and right ovarian cyst no longer existed.
