Abstract:
This paper summarized professor YOU Zhaoling's experience in treating intrauterine adhesions (IUA) with medicinal flowers. According to the collateral disease theory, deficiency and stasis of uterus vessels and collaterals is the key pathogenesis of IUA. Medicinal flowers are mostly fragrant, light and soft, with the function of diffusing, unblocking, penetrating and dissipating, which can be used to diffuse and dissipate stasis and stagnation in the blood, and finally unblock the collaterals. In clinical practice, Renshenhua (Flos Ginseng), Sanqihua (Flos Notoginseng), Jinyinhua (Flos Lonicerae Japonicae), Daidaihua (Flos Citri Aurantii Amarae), Lyu'emei (Flos Mume), Baihehua (Flos Bulbus Lilii), Xuelianhua (Herba Saussureae Lanicepsis), Yuejihua (Flos Rosae Chinensis), Juhua (Flos Chrysanthemi) and other medicinal flowers are commonly used for IUA, as well as self-made compound formulas contained of these herbs such as No.1 IUA Formula which is used in the perioperative period of transcervical resection of adhesion, No.2 IUA Formula which is used to treat postoperative thin endometrium, and Zhuluan Formula (助卵方) for IUA patients who want to have children.
