Formula Origin

No origin information available for this formula.

Formula Description

Geng Nian An 2 is designed for the acute, onset stage of menopausal symptoms when Liver Yang and Heart Fire are prominent.

The formula prioritizes symptom control through heavy Yang-anchoring substances (Long Chi), direct Heat-clearing (Huang Qin), and downward-purging (Da Huang), while still providing underlying Yin support through the Er Zhi Wan combination (Han Lian Cao + Nu Zhen Zi).

Once acute symptoms are controlled, patients should transition to Geng Nian An 1 for maintenance. This formula is not suitable for long-term use due to its cold, draining nature.
