炒山楂 郁金 丹参 橘红 炒川贝母 天花粉
程氏，冲脉为病，男子表现为内结七疝，女子表现为带下及瘕聚积聚。所以奇经脉络结实者，古人必定用苦辛味药物，配合芳香之品，以疏通脉络。其虚损者，必用辛甘温补之法，佐以流通脉络的药物，务必使气血调和，疾病才能痊愈。如今产后身体虚弱，兼有瘀血而痛，治法应当补益体质同时攻逐病邪。病程已有多日，宜采用缓治的方法。（体质虚弱兼有瘀血）
生地黄 生姜 牡丹皮 琥珀末（调入药汁中）
这是苦辛偶用的方剂，加入牡丹皮以通外络，琥珀以通内络，所以能取得疗效。

某氏（二十五岁），恶露淋漓不尽，疼痛从腰部发起，攻窜至少腹。这是督脉、带脉空虚，奇经之气阻滞，毫无疑问。奇经为病，通因通用的方法，是古代圣贤的定例。
当归 山楂肉炭 炒牡丹皮 泽兰 川断 制何首乌
唐氏，产后突然失血过多，用人参、附子急救，这是挽回阳气、固护气机的方法。但是损伤在阴分，出现的头痛、汗出、烦躁口渴，乃是阳气上冒所致。凡是开泄腠理则伤阳，辛热药物则伤阴，都不是新产郁冒的正确治法。曾读仲景之书，明晓本草之意，为此拟定后方，也不是凭空杜撰。（郁冒证）
生左牡蛎（一钱） 生地黄（二钱） 上阿胶（二钱） 炒黑山楂肉（三钱） 茺蔚子（一钱半）
吴氏，新产后阴气下泄，阳气上冒。傍晚至夜间，阳明胃气衰弱，厥阴肝气横逆。肝血无法藏守，气冲扰膈，导致心下格拒，气干犯膻中，神志混乱昏谵。如果恶露冲心就会死亡，哪有天亮再醒来的道理？回生丹酸苦直达下焦血分，用过无效，想必不是瘀血痹阻。想当初由汗淋发热引起，凡是外感风邪，邪气随汗解，这种热昏乱，就是仲景所说的新产郁冒。如果失治，必然四肢抽搐，像惊风似癫痫那样危险。议论按照亡阳汗出谵语的例子，用救逆法。
生龙骨（三钱） 生牡蛎（三钱） 桂枝（五分） 淮小麦（百粒） 炙甘草（三分） 南枣（二钱）
又诊：气从涌泉穴和小腹中，直冲胸臆，而心下疼痛，头顶晕眩神志昏迷。这是肝肾内里怯弱，无法收纳自固。每次假寐时魂魄飞越，惊恐畏惧，不止一端。救逆法镇潜阳气颇为应验，但缺少补虚宁神的药物，需要增加固摄之力。
人参（二钱） 龙齿（三钱捣碎） 酸枣仁（三钱） 茯神（三钱） 炒黑枸杞子（二钱） 黑壳建莲肉（五钱）
紫石英一两，捣碎，用水三盏，煎至减半，用来煎药。
又诊：两种方法都有效，下元虚损无疑，八脉没有气机把握，带下淋漓不止，梦中魂跌仆坠落，正经旨意说下虚则梦坠。议论镇固奇脉的方子。
人参（二钱） 龙齿（三钱） 酸枣仁（三钱） 茯神（三钱） 桑螵蛸（炙二钱） 炒黑远志（五分）
用紫石英煎汤煎药。
又诊：昨天中午忧悲嗔怒，大便后，陡然头晕，继以呕逆，胸痞停止，心中空洞嘈杂，仍然不能进食。半夜寒战鼓栗，寅刻微微发热，神昏妄见，头顶痛乳房胀，肠鸣，短气呵欠，似乎叹息之声。这是下元根蒂不坚固，偶然触动心机，诸阳之神飞旋舞动。仲景论述先厥后热，知饥不能食，干呕，列于厥阴篇中。大概是危病初愈，未沾水谷精华，则胃土大虚，中无砥柱，使得厥阴风木之威，横冲震荡，一如佛教经典混沌劫难，地水火风卒然来袭无法抵御。当此之时用药，全以护阳固阴为主。但血舍耗涸，刚猛及滋腻药物，总在难施之列。无暇顾及治病，保存体质为要。
人参（五钱） 熟附子（一钱） 川桂枝木（一钱） 炮姜炭（一钱） 炙黑甘草（五分） 茯苓（三钱）
沈氏，这是产后阴虚疟疾，鼻头色黑，喉燥舌干，脘痞不饥，大便窒塞不通，乃阳明津液枯涸，不上供肺，下少滋肠，风阳游行，面肿耳聋。仲景说阴气先绝，阳气独发，后人以饮食调养，取义甘寒，则知道辛温逐瘀的错误。
人参 炒麦冬 酸枣仁 乌梅肉 蜜水炒黄知母
又诊：酸味泄肝，胃气乃降，大便通后，大汗出，心中刺痛，都是营液内耗，阳气冲突。仲景三病中的郁冒显现端倪了。虽然痰吐咯出，没有苦燥耗气的道理。
人参 阿胶 生地黄 麦冬 生白芍 炙甘草
张氏，产后郁冒，汗出潮热，腹痛。
炒生地黄 炒山楂 丹参 茯神 浮小麦 黑豆皮
吴氏，产后十二天，先寒战，后发热，少腹痛，腹部膨满，下部腰肢不能转侧伸缩，小便涩少而痛。这是败血流入经络，蔓延变为疡症。议论用交加散。（败血入经络变为疡症）
小生地黄 生姜 车前子 牛膝 五灵脂 炒山楂肉 调入琥珀末一钱
又诊：十六天，各种症状稍减，每到黄昏戌亥时，冲气自下而上，到胸中即胀闷，肢冷汗出，右腹板实。这是厥阴肝脏，因惊气逆乱，如今恶露未清，重镇酸敛均为暂时禁忌。拟和血调血为稳妥。
当归须 炒桃仁 延胡索 炒山楂肉 官桂 香附 川楝子 小茴香
程氏，脉濡，恶露紫黑，痛处紧按稍缓，这属于络脉虚损，治疗在冲任二脉，用辛甘理阳之法。（营络虚寒恶露未清）

程氏，坐蓐过劳导致肝风阳气动，面浮气短，腹部膨满，恶露未清，不可用腻滞药物，须防痉厥。
小生地黄 丹参 泽兰 茯神 黑豆皮 琥珀末
又诊：血分既亏，风阳动泄，汗出心悸，这种辛气走泄的药物须忌。所担心的痉厥，如果已有端倪，议论用静药和阳之意。
阿胶 鸡子黄 细生地黄 生牡蛎 丹参 茯神
某氏，产后下焦阴亏，奇脉不固，阳浮乃升，风动则飧泄嘈杂，液损必消渴骨热，治疗在肝肾，用静药固摄。

于术 浓朴 茯苓 泽泻 南山楂 延胡索
凌氏，一岁四气之交，夏季发泄为甚。凡夏至一阴初复，未及充盈，恰当产期，为阴气未充先泄。暑热乘隙内侵，正如内经所说最虚之处，便是容邪之处。产科不明此旨，徒晓产后逐瘀成药，苦辛破血，津液愈劫，所伏暑热，无由可驱。六气客邪，内迫脏腑，渐渐昏蒙内闭，攻热害正，养正邪留，药难立方调治。幼读仲景，揣摩圣诲，惟育阴可以除热，况乎暑必伤气，人参非益气之圣药乎。大队阴药，佐以人参，诚为阴分益气之法。服之热疖垒垒而起，恶露缓缓而下，扶正却邪，并行不悖。今谷食已安，谅无反复，难成易亏之阴，须安养可望图功。倘加情志感触，轻则奇损带淋，重则髓枯蓐损，莫道赠言之不详也。（阴虚夹暑）

竹叶 细生地黄 银花 麦冬 玄参 连翘
张氏，产后十三天，舌黄边赤，口渴脘中紧闷，不食不饥，不大便，这是阴分已虚，热入营中，状如疟症，大忌表散清克。议论滋清营热，救其津液为要。
细生地黄 天冬 生鳖甲 丹皮 丹参 茯神
又诊：产后血络空虚，暑邪客气深入，疟乃间日而发，呕恶胸满，口渴，都是暑热烁胃津液也。此虚人夹杂时气，只宜和解，不可发汗腻补。
青蒿梗 淡黄芩 丹皮 郁金 花粉 川贝 杏仁 橘红
又诊：脉缓热止，病减之象。但舌色未净，大便未通，产后大虚，不敢推荡，勿进荤腻，恐滞蒸化热。蔬粥养胃，以滋清润燥，便通再议补虚。
生首乌 麻仁 麦冬 蜜水炒知母 苏子 花粉
某氏，浊阴上逆，恶心不食，冷汗烦躁，最防暴脱，不可但执恶露滞满，而专泻气攻血也。（阳虚欲脱）
人参 干姜 附子 泽泻 冲入童便
某氏，脉无神，神倦欲昏，汗出，乃阳气走泄，泻利系阴气不守，产后见症，是属重虚，深恐节间暴脱，而寒热胸痞腹痛，岂遑论及标末。
人参 制附子 人尿 猪胆汁
某氏（二十五岁），产后骤加惊恐，阳上瞀冒为厥，左肢麻木，耳窍失聪，皆阳挟内风，混入清窍，以上实下虚，镇阳填阴，味浓质静之药。（产后阴虚阳浮发厥）

Qin, after first childbirth, experienced sweating, dizziness. Accompanied by chest fullness and abdominal pain. Should promote the discharge of lochia. (Stagnation of lochia after recent childbirth)
Fried Hawthorn Fruit (Shanzha), Corydalis Rhizome (Yanhusuo), Curcuma Aromatica Rhizome (Yujin), Red Peony Root (Chishao), Fried Achyranthes Root (Niuxi), Cyperus Rhizome (Xiangfu), Child's Urine (Tongbian, taken with medicine), Motherwort Decoction (Yimucao Tang) as water for decoction.
Re-examination: Abdominal pain slightly relieved, but chest fullness and profuse phlegm persist. Treatment should focus on the Upper Jiao.
Fried Hawthorn Fruit (Shanzha), Curcuma Aromatica Rhizome (Yujin), Salvia Miltiorrhiza Root (Danshen), Tangerine Peel (Juhong), Fried Fritillaria Bulb (Chuanbeimu), Trichosanthes Root (Tianhuafen).
Cheng, diseases of the Chong vessel: in men, internal knotting of seven types of hernia; in women, leukorrhea and masses (zhao ju). Therefore, for solid conditions of the extraordinary vessels, ancients used bitter and acrid flavors combined with aromatic substances to unblock the collaterals. For deficiency conditions, acrid-sweet warming tonification is necessary, assisted by agents that circulate through the collaterals, ensuring harmonious Qi and Blood for complete recovery. Now, postpartum constitution is weak, accompanied by blood stasis causing pain. The method should be to tonify the body while attacking the pathogen. As many days have passed, slow treatment is appropriate. (Weak constitution with blood stasis)
Raw Rehmannia Root (Shengdi), Fresh Ginger (Shengjiang), Moutan Bark (Danpi), Powdered Amber (Hupo, mixed into the decoction).
This is a formula combining bitter and acrid flavors. Adding Moutan Bark to unblock the exterior collaterals, and Amber to unblock the interior, thus achieving efficacy.
Re-examination: Huisheng Dan (Return-to-Life Pill): Boiling a single herb, Rhubarb (Dahuang), in rice vinegar, allows it to reach the disease site precisely without affecting healthy areas, hence its efficacy. Both methods involve herbs entering the collaterals.
Small Raw Rehmannia Root (Xiao Shengdi), Dang Gui Tendrils (Guixu), Safflower (Honghua), Apricot Kernel (Yuliren), Seed of Ziziphus (Baiziren), Poria (Fushen).
Re-examination: Following the previous formula, remove Safflower (Honghua) and Apricot Kernel (Yuliren), add Lyonia Berry (Zelan).
Ms. (25 years old), lochia dripping continuously, pain originating from the waist and radiating to the lower abdomen. This indicates emptiness of the Du and Dai vessels, and obstruction of Qi in the extraordinary vessels, beyond doubt. For diseases of the extraordinary vessels, the method of "treating obstruction with unblocking" is a fixed principle of ancient sages.
Angelica Sinensis Root (Danggui), Charred Hawthorn Flesh (Zharon Tan), Fried Moutan Bark (Danpi), Lyonia Berry (Zelan), Dipsacus Root (Chuanduan), Prepared Polygonum Multiflorum (Zhi Shouwu).
Tang, sudden severe blood loss after childbirth requires urgent rescue with Ginseng (Renshen) and Aconite (Fuzi); this is a method to salvage Yang and consolidate Qi. However, the damage is in the Yin aspect. Headache, sweating, irritability, and thirst are due to Yang Qi rushing upward. Any opening or dispersing action damages Yang, while acrid-hot drugs damage Yin; neither is the correct treatment for postpartum Yu Mao (depression and vertigo). Having studied Zhang Zhongjing's works and understood the materia medica, I propose the following formula, which is not fabricated. (Yu Mao syndrome)
Raw Left Oyster Shell (Sheng Zuomuli, 1 qian), Raw Rehmannia Root (Shengdi, 2 qian), High-quality Donkey-hide Gelatin (Ejiao, 2 qian), Charred Fried Hawthorn Flesh (Hei Cha Sharon, 3 qian), Leonurus Seed (Chongweizi, 1.5 qian).
Wu, after recent childbirth, Yin Qi descends and leaks, while Yang Qi rushes upward. From dusk to night (Xu-Hai hours), the Stomach Qi of the Yangming channel declines, and the Liver Qi of the Jueyin channel becomes horizontal. Liver Blood cannot be stored, Qi rushes and disturbs the diaphragm, causing rejection in the epigastrium, Qi invading the Danzhong (Conception Vessel origin), leading to chaotic spirit, confusion, and delirium. If lochia rushes to the Heart, death ensues; there is no logic for waking up again at dawn. Huisheng Dan, sour and bitter, reaches directly to the Lower Jiao Blood aspect. Having been used without effect, it is likely not blood stasis obstruction. Initially caused by sweating and fever, where external Wind pathogen resolves with sweat, this heat-induced confusion corresponds to Zhang Zhongjing's description of postpartum Yu Mao. If untreated, limbs will twitch, resembling convulsions or wind-epilepsy, which is critical. Discussing according to the example of Yang collapse with sweating and delirium, use the Rescue Counteraction Method (Jiuniu Fa).
Raw Dragon Bone (Sheng Longgu, 3 qian), Raw Oyster Shell (Sheng Muli, 3 qian), Cinnamon Twig (Guizhi, 0.5 fen), Triticum Aestivum (Huaimaixian, 100 grains), Honey-fried Licorice Root (Zhigancao, 3 fen), Southern Date (Nanzao, 2 qian).
Re-examination: Qi rushes from the Yongquan point and lower abdomen straight to the chest and epigastrium, causing pain below the heart, top-of-head dizziness, and spiritual confusion. This is due to weakness in the Liver and Kidney internally, unable to receive and consolidate. During light sleep, the soul flies away, causing fear and terror, among other symptoms. The Rescue Counteraction Method effectively calms Yang, but lacks tonifying deficiency and calming the spirit. It needs supplementation and consolidation.
Ginseng (Renshen, 2 qian), Dragon Teeth (Longchi, 3 qian, crushed), Sour Jujube Seed (Zaoren, 3 qian), Poria (Fushen, 3 qian), Charred Black Goji Berry (Heiqi, 2 qian), Black-shell Jian Lotus Seed Meat (Heike Jianlianrou, 5 qian).
Purple Quartz (Zishi, 1 liang), crushed, decocted in three cups of water until reduced by half, used to decoct the other herbs.
Re-examination: Both methods were effective; Lower Yuan deficiency is undeniable. The Eight Extraordinary Vessels lack Qi control, resulting in continuous leukorrhea, dreams of falling, consistent with the classic saying that lower deficiency leads to dreams of falling. Proposing a formula to calm and secure the extraordinary vessels.
Ginseng (Renshen, 2 qian), Dragon Teeth (Longchi, 3 qian), Sour Jujube Seed (Zaoren, 3 qian), Poria (Fushen, 3 qian), Mantis Egg Case (Sangpiaoxiao, honey-fried 2 qian), Charred Black Polygala Root (Heiyuanzhi, 0.5 fen).
Decoct Purple Quartz (Zishi) in water to decoct the medicine.
Re-examination: Yesterday noon, grief and anger occurred. After defecation, sudden dizziness followed by vomiting and reversal. Chest fullness stopped, but the heart felt empty and嘈杂 (clashing/uncomfortable), still unable to eat. At midnight, chills and shivering; at Yin hour, slight fever, confusion, hallucinations, head pain, breast distension, borborygmus, shortness of breath, yawning, sounding like sighing. This is because the root of the Lower Yuan is not firm. Accidental emotional disturbance causes the spirits of all Yang to fly and dance. Zhang Zhongjing discusses "first cold extremities then fever," knowing hunger but unable to eat, dry retching, listed in the Jueyin chapter. Likely, after a critical illness shows initial improvement, without nourishment from food and drink essence, the Earth of the Stomach is greatly deficient, lacking a pillar in the center, allowing the tyranny of Jueyin Wind-Wood to rush horizontally and shake violently, like the Buddhist concept of the Kalpa chaos, where Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind suddenly attack and cannot be resisted. Medication at this time must entirely protect Yang and consolidate Yin. However, since the Blood residence is depleted and dried, harsh/pungent and cloying/nourishing drugs are difficult to apply. There is no time to treat the disease; preserving the constitution is paramount.
Ginseng (Renshen, 5 qian), Prepared Aconite Root (Shu Fuzi, 1 qian), Cinnamon Twig Wood (Chuan Guizhimu, 1 qian), Charred Roasted Ginger (Pao Jiangtan, 1 qian), Honey-fried Black Licorice Root (Zhei Gancao, 0.5 fen), Poria (Fuling, 3 qian).
Shen, this is postpartum Yin-deficiency malaria. Blackening of the nose, dry throat and tongue, epigastric fullness and lack of appetite, fecal impaction. This is depletion of Yangming fluids, failing to nourish the Lungs above and Intestines below. Wind-Yang wanders, causing facial swelling and deafness. Zhang Zhongjing states: "When Yin Qi is exhausted first, Yang Qi acts alone." Later practitioners use dietary management with sweet-cold principles, realizing the error of acrid-warm blood-dispelling methods.
Ginseng (Renshen), Fried Ophiopogon Tuber (Mai Dong), Sour Jujube Seed (Zaoren), Dark Plum Flesh (Wumei Rou), Honey-fried Anemarrhena Rhizome (Zhi Zhimu).
Re-examination: Sour flavor drains the Liver, allowing Stomach Qi to descend. After bowel movement, profuse sweating and stabbing heart pain occur, indicating consumption of Ying fluids and conflict of Yang Qi. The signs of Yu Mao in Zhang Zhongjing's three diseases are emerging. Although phlegm is expectorated, there is no rationale for using bitter-dry drugs that consume Qi.
Ginseng (Renshen), Donkey-hide Gelatin (Ejiao), Raw Rehmannia Root (Shengdi), Ophiopogon Tuber (Maidong), Raw White Peony Root (Baishao), Honey-fried Licorice Root (Zhicao).

This is败血 (decayed blood) flowing into the collaterals, spreading to become an abscess/ulcer condition. Propose using Jiaojia San. (Decayed blood entering collaterals becomes ulcer)
Small Raw Rehmannia Root (Xiao Shengdi), Fresh Ginger (Shengjiang), Plantago Seed (Cheqian), Achyranthes Root (Niuxi), Trogopterus Dung (Wulingzhi), Fried Hawthorn Flesh (Chao Sharon), mixed with 1 qian Powdered Amber (Hupo).
Re-examination: Sixteen days later, symptoms slightly reduced. Every evening during Xu-Hai hours, Chong Qi rises from below to the chest, causing distension and stuffiness, cold limbs, and sweating. Right abdomen is hard and solid. This is Jueyin Liver channel, due to逆 Qi from fright. Since lochia is not yet clear, heavy sedatives and astringents are temporarily contraindicated. Harmonizing and regulating Blood is proposed as stable.
Dang Gui Tendrils (Guixu), Fried Peach Kernel (Chao Taoren), Corydalis Rhizome (Yanhusuo), Fried Hawthorn Flesh (Chao Sharon), Official Cinnamon (Guangui), Cyperus Rhizome (Xiangfu), Toosendan Fruit (Chuanli), Small Fennel (Xiaohui).

Small Raw Rehmannia Root (Xiao Shengdi), Salvia Miltiorrhiza Root (Danshen), Lyonia Berry (Zelan), Poria (Fushen), Black Bean Skin (Heidoupi), Powdered Amber (Hupo).
Re-examination: Blood aspect is already deficient, Wind-Yang stirring and leaking, sweating, palpitations. Acrid drugs that disperse Qi must be avoided. Concerning convulsions, if signs appear, propose using quiet herbs to harmonize Yang.
Donkey-hide Gelatin (Ejiao), Chicken Egg Yolk (Jizihuang), Fine Raw Rehmannia Root (Xi Shengdi), Raw Oyster Shell (Sheng Muli), Salvia Miltiorrhiza Root (Danshen), Poria (Fushen).
Ms., postpartum Lower Jiao Yin deficiency, extraordinary vessels insecure, Yang floats upward, Wind stirring causes undigested food diarrhea and stomach discomfort, fluid damage causes thirst and bone heat. Treatment focuses on Liver and Kidney, using quiet herbs to secure.

Ling, transition of four Qi in a year, summer excretion is severe. At Summer Solstice, Yin begins to recover but is not yet full, coinciding with the postpartum period, meaning Yin Qi is leaked before being filled. Summer-Heat invades through gaps, just as the Neijing says: "The most deficient place is where pathogens reside." Obstetrics does not understand this principle, only knowing postpartum blood-stasis dispelling pills, bitter-acrid breaking blood, further劫 (robbing) fluids, leaving trapped Summer-Heat unable to be expelled. Six Qi pathogenic factors invade organs, gradually causing confusion and internal closure. Attacking Heat harms Zheng Qi, tonifying Zheng leaves Pathogen, making prescription difficult. Reading Zhang Zhongjing in youth, pondering sage teachings, only nourishing Yin can eliminate Heat. Moreover, Summer-Heat must damage Qi; is not Ginseng the holy drug for tonifying Qi? A large group of Yin-nourishing drugs, assisted by Ginseng, is indeed the method of tonifying Qi in the Yin aspect. Taking it, heat boils rise continuously, lochia slowly flows down, supporting Zheng and expelling Pathogen proceed together without contradiction. Now food intake is stable, likely no recurrence. Difficult-to-form and easily-lost Yin must be nurtured to achieve results. If emotional disturbances occur, mild cases lead to extraordinary vessel damage and leukorrhea/dysuria, severe cases to marrow depletion and postpartum consumptive disease. Do not say my advice is not detailed. (Yin deficiency with Summer-Heat)
Male Black-bone Hen (Xiong Wuji, one), Ginseng (Renshen, 2 liang mixed with Autumn Stone/Qiushi), Fresh Raw Rehmannia Root (Xian Shengdi, 3 liang), Seed of Ziziphus (Baiziren, 1.5 liang), Asparagus Tuber (Tiantong, 1.5 liang), Ophiopogon Tuber (Maidong, 2 liang), Donkey-hide Gelatin (Ejiao, 2 liang), Jian Lotus Seed Meat (Jianlianrou, 3 liang), Poria (Fushen, 2 liang).

Zhang, thirteen days postpartum, yellow tongue with red edges, thirst, tight stuffiness in epigastrium, no eating or hunger, no bowel movement. Yin aspect is already deficient, Heat has entered Ying, resembling malaria. Strongly contraindicate exterior-dispersing and cold-purging. Propose nourishing and clearing Ying Heat, saving Jin Ye (fluids) is essential.
Fine Raw Rehmannia Root (Xi Shengdi), Asparagus Tuber (Tiantong), Raw Softshell Turtle Shell (Sheng Biejia), Moutan Bark (Danpi), Salvia Miltiorrhiza Root (Danshen), Poria (Fushen).
Re-examination: Postpartum blood collaterals are empty, Summer-Heat guest pathogen penetrates deeply, malaria occurs every other day, nausea/vomiting, chest fullness, thirst, all due to Summer-Heat scorching Stomach fluids. This is a deficient person complicated by seasonal Qi, only suitable for harmonization, not sweating or cloying tonification.
Artemisia Annua Stem (Qinghao Geng), Light Scutellaria Root (Dan Huangqin), Moutan Bark (Danpi), Curcuma Aromatica Rhizome (Yujin), Trichosanthes Root (Huafen), Fritillaria Bulb (Chuanbei), Apricot Kernel (Xingren), Tangerine Peel (Juhong).
Re-examination: Pulse slow, heat stopped, sign of disease reduction. But tongue color not clean, bowel movement not通畅 (unobstructed). Postpartum great deficiency, dare not use purgatives. Avoid meat/greasy foods, fearing stagnation steaming into Heat. Vegetable porridge nourishes Stomach, moistening and drying-resolving. Once bowels move, discuss tonifying deficiency.
Raw Polygonum Multiflorum (Sheng Shouwu), Hemp Seed (Maren), Ophiopogon Tuber (Maidong), Honey-fried Anemarrhena Rhizome (Zhi Zhimu), Perilla Fruit (Suzi), Trichosanthes Root (Huafen).
Ms., Turbid Yin reverses upward, nausea, no eating, cold sweat, irritability. Most fear sudden collapse. Cannot solely rely on lochia stagnation/fullness and exclusively purge Qi and attack Blood. (Yang deficiency impending collapse)
Ginseng (Renshen), Dried Ginger (Ganjiang), Aconite Root (Fuzi), Alisma Rhizome (Zexie), mixed with Child's Urine (Tongbian).
Ms., pulse lacks spirit, spiritual fatigue, desire to faint, sweating, indicating Yang Qi leakage. Diarrhea is due to Yin Qi not holding. Postpartum manifestation, belonging to double deficiency. Deeply fear sudden collapse between periods. How can we discuss branch and root regarding alternating fever, chest fullness, and abdominal pain?
Ginseng (Renshen), Processed Aconite Root (Zhi Fuzi), Human Urine (Ren Niao), Pig Bile (Zhu Danzhi).
Ms. (25 years old), postpartum sudden fright, Yang rises causing dizziness/collapse (Jue), left limb numbness, ear deafness. All due to Yang carrying internal Wind, mixing into clear orifices. Upper excess, lower deficiency. Calm Yang and fill Yin, using thick-flavored and static-substance drugs. (Postpartum Yin deficiency with Yang floating causing Jue)

Xu, lower abdomen Qi rushes to epigastrium, epigastric pain and distension. If claiming Liver Qi invades Stomach, there must be vomiting/reversal. Previous methods of tonifying Yin and harmonizing Yang failed. Clearly postpartum lower deficiency, Jue Qi attacks upward. Propose using soft-Yang drugs. (Chong-Ren deficiency Qi reversing upward causing epigastric pain/distension)
Fried Dang Gui Body (Chao Guishen), Cistanche Stem (Rongrong), Fried Goji Berry (Chao Qizi), Seed of Ziziphus (Baiziren), Small Fennel (Xiaohui), Poria (Fushen).
Re-examination: Reversal vibration causing pain, indicates Chong-Ren emptiness postpartum. Pressing reduces pain, especially a sign of deficiency. Due to weak Stomach reducing food intake, cannot use large amounts of decoctions, fearing Stomach collapse.
Dang Gui, Cistanche Stem (Rongrong), Purple Quartz (Zishi), Poria (Fuling), Human Placenta (Heche), Deer Antler Frost (Lu Jiaoshuang).
Re-examination: When Chong vessel reverses, all vessels move. Clear sky and gentle weather bring slight relief, indicating Yin deficiency extending to Yang aspect. Previous method encompassed Great Qi, warming/nourishing assisting unblocking, this is a collateral formula. Recently spring rising, slight nasal bleeding, but no cold-clearing drugs available. Add salty flavor to assist entering Yin, addressing postpartum Lower Jiao initial injury. Original formula reduce Deer Antler Frost and Dang Gui, also fearing Yang rising. Add Goji and Longan, since pain is on the left, thus nourishing Liver is the proposal.
Yu (32 years old), back cold, heart hot, cool after sweating at dawn. Lasting two to three months postpartum. This is Lower Jiao True Yin already deficient, gradually disturbing Yang position, two Qi interacting, not an external pathogen. Dizziness, tinnitus, palpitations, diarrhea after alternating fever, internal Wind stirring. Should give quiet drugs. (Yin deficiency with stirring Wind-Yang, June 20)
Ginseng (Renshen), Honey-fried Licorice Root (Zhicao), White Peony Root (Baishao), Ophiopogon Tuber (Maidong), Fried Raw Rehmannia Root (Chao Shengdi), Fried Dark Plum (Chao Wumei).
Re-examination: Previous method sour-sweet, tonifying Yin and harmonizing Yang, all diseases reduced. However, this ailment is postpartum Lower Jiao hundred vessels empty, called Rusun (postpartum consumptive disease). Filling gaps and consolidating marrow is the correct treatment. Due to no increase in food intake, heavy/cloying may hinder appetite, pills can be used for meals. (July 3)
Ginseng (Renshen), Honey-fried Licorice Root (Zhicao), Donkey-hide Gelatin (Ejiao), Raw Rehmannia Root (Shengdi), Ophiopogon Tuber (Maidong).
Re-examination: Follow previous formula adding Cinnamon Twig Wood (Guizhimu), Poria (Fuling), Southern Date (Nanzao). (August 7)
Re-examination: Postpartum all belong to Lower Jiao initial damage, hundred vessels empty. Season is Summer-Autumn, warm weather increases excretion worsening disease. This supporting Yang and tonifying Yin achieved effect. Now symptoms improving, sleep and appetite stable, only menstruation not arrived. Its Chong-Ren extraordinary vessels do not rise, must have visceral Yin full and vigorous, allowing flow in vessels. (September 1)
