So I always try to do a bit of online research about the Chinese herbs I am given. When looking up the new ones that I started today (Bai Feng Wan) I found that the translation is Black Chicken White Phoenix. Weird huh? There are a lot of sites with a lot of information but they say things like....
"Tonifies blood and qi, warms the uterus, nurtures yin, resolves stagnation of liver qi and blood. Use for menstrual disorders due to deficiency or cold, including amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, or infertility. " and
"invigorates Qi and nourishes the blood, regulates menstruation and checks leukorrhea†. The herbal formula is used for deficiency of both Qi and blood, emaciation, weakness and soreness of the loins and knees, irregular menstruation, metrorrhagia, metrostaxis and leukorrhea†."
So here's to strengthening my QI (pronounced chee) and taking care of my menstrual irregularities.
