Evidence at a Glance
One 98-person randomized report studied Aifu Nuangong Pills together with phloroglucinol for primary dysmenorrhea and reported better pain-related outcomes in the combination group. The co-treatment design cannot isolate the effect of Aifu Nuangong Pills alone.
Pregnancy is contraindicated. Seek medical assessment for new irregular bleeding, red discharge, severe menstrual pain, or symptoms that do not improve.
Uses
Common Uses
People may consider Aifu Nuangong Wan for delayed or unusually light periods, menstrual abdominal pain, lower-back soreness, or vaginal discharge.
Traditional & Labeled Uses
理气补血，暖宫调经
Regulates qi and nourishes blood; warms the uterus and regulates menstruation.
- Traditional use for uterine cold with scant or delayed menstruation, menstrual abdominal pain, low-back soreness, and vaginal discharge.
The labeled traditional use is distinct from proof of clinical effectiveness for a diagnosed condition.
Understanding the TCM Perspective
Terms such as uterine cold are Traditional Chinese Medicine descriptions, not biomedical diagnoses. They should not be used to self-diagnose a hormonal disorder, pregnancy-related condition, infection, or another cause of abnormal bleeding.
The information on this page is intended for product education and should not replace diagnosis or treatment advice from a qualified healthcare professional.
Safety
Pregnancy
Do not use during pregnancy. The official product information lists pregnancy as a contraindication.
Allergy
Do not use if you are allergic to this product. Use caution if you have an allergy-prone constitution.
Drug Interactions
The official information says interactions may occur when used with other medicines and advises consulting a physician or pharmacist. Do not assume combinations are safe.
When to Seek Medical Advice
Do not use during a cold. Seek care for new scant or delayed menstruation after previously regular cycles, irregular vaginal bleeding, discharge with itching or red discharge, severe menstrual pain, or no improvement after two weeks. People seeking fertility should use it under clinician guidance.
Contraindications
- Pregnancy.
- Do not select for menstrual clots with abdominal pain that is worse with pressure, or for chest/flank distension, according to the official instructions.
Reported Adverse Reactions
- The official information lists adverse reactions as not yet clear; this is not proof that the product is risk-free.
Evidence
Human Clinical Evidence
Aifu Nuangong Pills plus phloroglucinol for primary dysmenorrhea
The report described lower pain scores and higher reported response in the combination group. Combination treatment prevents attribution of benefit to the formula alone.
