What formulas would be recommended for postpartum recovery from a normal uncomplicated childbirth, focusing on regaining energy?

Thank You

I would recommend Sheng Hua Tang, which has Dang Gui, Chuan Xiong, Tao Ren, Gan Jiang and Zhi Gan Cao. It is one of the common formulas taken after childbirth. If the new mother has low energy the formula may be modified, or other tonifying formula may follow after Sheng Hua Tang.

Good luck!

Would Ba zhen Tang be a better choice?

Ba Zhen Tang would be another option. However, I would focus on blood stasis first before moving onto regaining energy.

For how loing it can be taken?
