bleeding

 

Hi All,

 

Google has a few hits on Yunnan Baiyao/Paiyao or Sanqi to treat uterus

bleeding

(metrorrhagia / menorrhagia). However, most hits are from companies that

sell the

product(s). Examples are:

A recent research report suggests some benefit in uterus bleeding in

rabbits fitted with an

IUD:

 

Zhong Xi Yi Jie He Xue Bao. 2005 Nov;3(6):473-5. [Effects of Sanqi

Qiancao Recipe on

hemorheological parameters of rabbits with copper intrauterine device]

[Article in Chinese]

Shen YH, Yin XH, You ZL, Fu LM, Tan ZY. Department of Obstetrics and

Gynecology, Third

Hospital, Hunan College of Traditional , Zhuzhou, Hunan

Province 412000,

China. syhdoctor OBJECTIVE: To explore the mechanism of Sanqi

Qiancao

Recipe (SQR) in treating metrorrhagia caused by copper intrauterine

device (IUD) in rabbits

and to provide experimental evidence for preventing and treating this

disease. METHODS:

Fifty-six rabbits were randomly divided into seven groups, which were

normal control group,

sham-operation group, untreated group, indomethacin-treated group,

low-dose SQR-treated

group, medium-dose SQR-treated group and high-dose SQR-treated group.

Copper IUD

insertion was operated in rabbits of the last five groups. Rabbits in

the last four groups were

treated orally with indomethacin and low-, medium- and high-dose SQR

respectively for a

week. Rabbits in the untreated group, normal control group and

sham-operation group were

given distilled water orally. Hematocrit, blood viscosity at low, medium

and high shear rate,

plasma viscosity and blood sedimentation were examined after treatment.

RESULTS: The

hematocrit, blood viscosity at low, medium and high shear rate and

plasma viscosity were

higher in the untreated group than those in the normal control group

with significant

differences (P<0.01) while those indexes in low-, medium- and high-dose

SQR-treated

groups were significantly lower than those in the untreated group

(P<0.05 or P<0.01).

CONCLUSION: SQR can lead to a decrease in blood viscosity and improve

the blood flow,

which may be one of the mechanisms of SQR in treating metrorrhagia after

copper IUD

insertion. PMID: 16282060 [PubMed - in process]

 

However, tere appear to be no hits (in English) from OFFICIAL government

or TCM Shoool

sources for use of Sanqi in those conditions.
