San Leng Dan Shen Formula (Stasis Transforming Formula) is a modern formula designed to treat patterns of blood stasis in the lower burner. Since chronic blood stasis often presents with qi stagnation, mucosal nodulation, heat-toxin, and/or spleen/kidney deficiency, this formula addresses each of these factors. Originally developed as a gynecological formula for endometriosis and dysmenorrhea, it can also be used for male health and for any long-standing blood stasis condition.
