Formula Rationale
Clearing is specific for a common pattern that presents with recurring or chronic vaginitis. Many women in their thirties and forties with this condition suffer from a combination of spleen qi deficiency leading to dampness, liver heat, deficient heat, and stagnant blood. This may occur with or without menstrual dysfunction. This formula is a modified version of the traditional formula: Heart Clearing Lotus Seed Drink (Qing Xin Lian Zi Yin). It is modified to suit the typical complex syndrome pattern that the practitioner sees in clinical practice.
Lotus seed (lian zi) tonifies the spleen and arrests seminal emissions and leukorrhea. Smilax (tu fu ling) is a detoxicant, especially useful for urinary tract infections. Ophiopogon (mai men dong), white ginseng (bai ren shen) and glehnia (sha shen) generate fluids. Astragalus (huang qi) tonifies Qi and eliminates edema. Poria (fu ling) helps tonify spleen and drains dampness. Lycium bark (di gu pi) and moutan (mu dan pi) clear internal heat. Plantago (che qian zi) is a diuretic, specifically for urinary tract infections. Red peony (chi shao) invigorates blood. Scute (huang qin) eliminates dampness and heat. Licorice (gan cao) is a detoxicant.
Clinical Notes
1. Western medical consultation is of importance when the condition is serious, i.e., severe pain or acute inflammation or threat of stone entering the ureters
2. The formula also addresses chronic diarrhea complaints with dry stomach, spleen dampness, and damp-heat present as a syndrome
Additional Formulas
