Angelica sinensis is a commonly used blood-enriching drug, which has the function of promoting blood circulation and nourishing blood without blood stasis when it returns to meridian.
Because Chinese medicine believes that women are prone to blood deficiency and blood stasis, and angelica can not only enrich blood, but also promote blood circulation, so it has a good conditioning effect on various diseases of women, so it is called gynecological holy medicine.
