Product Description
ChinaMed Menopause 2 Formula 78c
This is an empirical formula that is based on a combination of three formulas: Er Xian Tang (Formula of the Two ‘Xian’ Herbs a.k.a. Epimedium & Curculigo Combination), Bai He Di Huang Tang and Gan Mai Da zao Tang (Licorice, Wheat and Jujube Combination). The former is a relatively modern formulation that may support hypertension in menopause. Not only was it shown to be effective for this, but it may also have the side effect of reducing hot flushes. The latter formula was first recorded over 2,000 years ago in the Synopsis of Prescriptions of the Golden Chamber (jin gui yao lue fang lun), by Zhang Zhongjing (circa 150 – 219 A.D). It was originally used for ‘restless organ’ (zang zao) disorder, which was classified under the heading of gynecological disorders. The main symptoms are dysphoria and overwhelming or uncontrollable emotional responses. Bai He Di Huang ang, also from the same classic text, may clear Heat, cool the Blood and calm the Spirit, which may help alleviate hot flushes, anxiety and irritability.
This formula may benefit women in the perimenopausal period, who present with frequent hot flushes with sleep disturbance, irritability and emotional volatility. The pathogenesis of hot flushes in menopause is complex and may include: Kidney Yin deficiency, Kidney Yang deficiency, Kidney Qi deficiency and Spleen Qi deficiency. The first syndrome leads to Yang hyperactivity, whereas the latter three may lead to ‘stirring’ of the Minister Fire (the Fire of the Life Gate), which is normally stored in the lower Jiao. In many cases, several of these syndromes may occur concurrently. This formula may address hot flushes due to Kidney Yang deficiency or Kidney Qi deficiency together with the Fire that may arise as a consequence. Therefore in cases with marked Kidney Yin deficiency, it is best combined with specific Kidney Yin tonifying formulas as described above.
