Cluster Mallow Fruit Classic Formulas

Primary Actions

Promotes urination and unblocks painful urinary difficulty - Dong Kui Guo is used for damp-heat or heat-type urinary obstruction, dribbling, dark scanty urine, and edema related to water-pathway constraint.
Moistens the Intestines and facilitates stool - the slippery sweet-cold fruit is also used for constipation when dryness and heat combine with poor fluid movement.
Promotes lactation and opens constrained flow - traditional use extends to insufficient breast milk when body fluids are not moving freely.

Dong Kui Guo with Mu Tong and Hua Shi - lower-burner heat and difficult urination pairing logic.
Dong Kui Guo with Huo Ma Ren - constipation strategy when dryness and poor fluid movement coexist.
Dong Kui Guo with Tong Cao - classical lactation-opening logic when milk is scant and channels are constrained.

American Dragon's Dong Kui Zi entry notes that the Malvae fruit/seed lineage is sweet and cold and is used to clear heat, promote urination, reduce edema, lubricate the bowels, and support lactation.
Modern TCM references often use Dong Kui Zi and Dong Kui Guo in overlapping ways, so this record preserves the fruit-name import while keeping the core traditional profile conservative.
The herb belongs more to the draining-lubricating category than to harsh purgation; its movement is slippery and fluid rather than forceful.
