Buckwheat-Carmine Pills

Buckwheat-Carmine Pills,Menstrual Pain Due to Irregularity. Any unmarried young woman who previously experienced painless menstruation but suddenly develops menstrual pain after marriage, with no relief from medication, suffers from this condition. This is caused by ignorance of taboos during the honeymoon period; if sexual intercourse occurs either just before menstruation begins or while menstruation has not yet ceased, it agitates the Blood Sea and damages the Chong and Ren meridians, leading to stagnation and congealing of blood. Consequently, when menstruation occurs, the flow cannot proceed smoothly, resulting in pain.
