In the hospital prescription posted by this netizen, the doctor prescribed dodder seed, roasted licorice, atractylodes macrocephala, prepared rehmannia, and black medicine, as well as a type of Chinese herbal medicine, which is 15 grams of blood charcoal. This netizen stated that he prescribed these drugs after going to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital due to non menstrual bleeding, and the effect was very good after taking them.

A senior traditional Chinese medicine practitioner told reporters

Blood charcoal is a common type of traditional Chinese medicine

Has the effect of astringency and hemostasis

Used to treat symptoms such as bleeding, vomiting, and hemoptysis

The reporter searched and found that in the book "Traditional Chinese Medicine" published by China Traditional Chinese Medicine Press in 2007 (author Gao Xuemin), it was introduced as follows: Blood charcoal is a carbonized substance made from human hair. Take hair, remove impurities, wash with alkaline water to remove oil stains, rinse with clean water, dry in the sun, simmer and calcine into charcoal, and let cool.
