Description

Bitter, astringent, and cold, Ailanthi Cortex (Chun Pi) enters both the qi and blood levels of the Stomach and Large Intestine channels where it clears heat, dries dampness, cools the blood, and restrains bleeding. Thus it has many beneficial actions, limited only by its narrow channel affiliations. It is frequently used for vaginal discharge due to damp-heat, or vaginal discharge appearing mixed with blood, incessant uterine bleeding due to heat in the blood, and blood in the stool due to damp-heat in the Intestines. (From Chinese Herbal Medicine Materia Medica, 3rd ed.)
