Dr. He Haochen
Daxueteng (Sargentodoxa cuneata) has effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, and reducing swelling. It promotes blood circulation, removes blood stasis, and alleviates pain. It helps relieve gynecological symptoms and amenorrhea by improving blood flow and regulating menstruation; however, it is contraindicated during pregnancy. It is also effective for swelling and stiffness in the lower back and leg joints. Patients may appropriately include this herb in their treatment to enhance blood circulation.
