Benign prostatic hypertrophy and prostate cancer are common in middle-aged and elderly men. The prostate is not an organ or bowel in TCM. However, the most common symptoms of prostate disease, difficult urination and distension of the lower hypogastrum, are categorized as long bi in Chinese medicine. The ingredients selected for Essence Chamber are a combination of traditional Chinese and traditional Western herbal medicines. They have been chosen by Chinese traditional differentiation methods in combination with empirical and symptomatic indications. Saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) traditionally has been shown in research experiments to reduce BPH. It is traditionally combined with hydrangea (Hydrangeae arborscentis). Patrinia (bai jiang cao) rids the body of swelling and damp heat. Salvia (dan shen) and liquidambar (lu lu tong) increase blood circulation. Vaccaria (wang bu liu xing), poria (fu ling), tokoro (bi xie), and abutilon (dong kui zi) drain dampness and aid in voiding the urine. Damiana (Turnerae aphrodisiacae) is a kidney tonic that is used to increase the sex drive.
