She gives her experience in Chinese herbal prescriptions, and Acupuncture treatment methods.

In this lecture, Shulan will share her rich knowledge of TCM theory and great clinical guidance, to benefit TCM practitioners.


Fu Qing Zhu’s Prescriptions for Regulating Menstruation

《 Fu Qing Zhu Nu Ke 》 was written by Fu Shan in the late Ming and early Qing dynasty . It is a renowned TCM gynaecological book. The differentiations are precise and the prescriptions are simple, but effective. Mr. Fu treats menstrual disorders by Nourishing the Kidneys whilst concurrently treating the Liver and Spleen. As a result he created his own method of treatment.

In this lecture, Shulan will focus on the chapter on Regulating Menstruation. She has researched and analysed the fourteen disease patterns, and fifteen formulas written in this chapter, and will offer theory and guidance to practitioners.
