产前当清热产血。产妇因火动胎,逆上作喘急者,急用条芩、香附之类为末调
下。条芩,水中取沉者为佳。堕胎,乃气虚、血虚、血热。黄芩,安胎,乃上中二焦药,能
降火下行。益母草,即茺蔚子,治产前产后诸病,能行血养血。难产可煎作膏,地黄膏、
膝膏,皆可用。怀妊爱物,乃一脏之虚。假如肝脏之虚,肝气止能生胎,无余用也。又云∶
不能荣其肝,肝虚故爱酸物。产前安胎,白术、黄芩为妙药也。条芩,安胎圣药也。俗人
知,以为害而不敢用,反谓温热之药可养胎。殊不知产前宜清热,令血循经而不妄行,故
养胎。胎热将临月,以三补丸加炒香附、炒白芍,蒸饼丸服。抑热,以三补丸,用地黄膏
。有孕八九个月,必顺气,须用枳壳、紫苏梗。凡妊妇脉细匀,易产;大浮缓,火气散,难
产。生产如抱舡过坝一般。

产前应当清热以养胎血。产妇因火邪扰动胎元,导致气逆上冲而气喘急促的,应立即用条芩、香附等药研成粉末,调服。条芩(黄芩的一种),以在水中下沉者为佳。堕胎的原因,在于气虚、血虚或血热。黄芩能安胎,它是作用于上焦和中焦的药物,能降火下行。益母草,即茺蔚子,治疗产前产后各种疾病,能活血又能养血。难产可以煎煮制成膏剂,地黄膏、膝膏,都可以使用。孕妇喜爱吃某些特定食物,是因为某一脏气虚弱。假如是肝脏虚弱,肝气只能用来滋养胎元,没有多余的气力去濡养自身,所以说“不能荣其肝”,肝虚所以喜爱酸味食物。产前安胎,白术和黄芩是妙药。条芩是安胎的圣药。世俗之人知道这一点,却认为它寒凉有害而不敢使用,反而认为温热药物可以养胎。殊不知产前宜清热,使血液循行于经脉而不妄行,从而滋养胎元。胎热将至临产月时,用三补丸加入炒香的香附、炒白芍,用蒸饼做丸服用。抑制胎热,用三补丸,配合地黄膏。怀孕八九个月时,必须顺气,需用枳壳、紫苏梗。凡是孕妇脉象细匀,容易生产;脉象大浮缓,说明火气散漫,难产。生产就像抱着船过坝一样艰难。

During the prenatal period, one should clear heat to nourish fetal blood. If a parturient experiences asthma and urgency due to fire pathogen disturbing the fetus and causing rebellious Qi ascending, immediately use powder of Tiao Qin (a type of Scutellariae Radix) and Xiang Fu (Cyperi Rhizoma), mixed with water for administration. Tiao Qin is best when it sinks in water. Abortion results from Qi deficiency, Blood deficiency, or Blood heat. Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) stabilizes the fetus; it acts on the Upper and Middle Jiao and can descend fire downward. Yi Mu Cao (Leonuri Herba), also known as Chong Wei Zi (Leonuri Fructus), treats various diseases before and after childbirth; it invigorates Blood and nourishes Blood. For dystocia, decoctions can be made into pastes; Di Huang Gao (Rehmanniae Paste) and Xi Gao are all usable. A pregnant woman's craving for specific foods indicates deficiency in a certain Zang organ. For instance, if the Liver is deficient, its Qi is only sufficient to nourish the fetus and has no surplus to nourish itself; thus, "it cannot moisten the Liver," and Liver deficiency leads to a craving for sour foods. For prenatal fetal stabilization, Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) and Huang Qin are excellent herbs. Tiao Qin is the sacred herb for stabilizing the fetus. Laypeople know this but fear its cold nature and dare not use it, instead believing that warm-hot herbs can nourish the fetus. They do not realize that clearing heat during pregnancy allows Blood to follow the meridians without reckless flow, thereby nourishing the fetus. When fetal heat approaches the month of delivery, use San Bu Wan (Three Tonics Pill) added with fried Xiang Fu and fried Bai Shao, made into pills with steamed dough. To suppress heat, use San Bu Wan with Di Huang Gao. In the eighth or ninth month of pregnancy, Qi must be smoothed using Zhi Ke (Aurantii Fructus) and Zi Su Geng (Perillae Caulis). Generally, if a pregnant woman's pulse is fine and even, childbirth will be easy; if the pulse is large, floating, and slow, it indicates scattered Fire Qi, leading to difficult childbirth. Childbirth is like carrying a boat over a dam.
Prescription: Gu Tai Fang (Fetus Stabilizing Decoction).
Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix Preparata) (0.5 qian), Dang Gui Shen (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Bai Shao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) (each 2 qian), Bai Zhu (1.5 qian), Chuan Xiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) (0.5 qian), Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) (1 qian), Huang Qin (0.5 qian), Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (0.3 qian), Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma) (a little), Huang Bo (Phellodendri Cortex) (a little), Sang Shang Yang Er Teng (Mulberry Parasitic Stem) (seven-leaf round variety). Another version omits Huang Qin.
Chop the above ingredients. Take 2 qian per dose, add 24 grains of glutinous rice, decoct, and take orally. For Blood deficiency with insecurity, use E Jiao (Colla Corii Asini); for pain, use Sha Ren (Amomi Fructus) to stop pain, as it stabilizes the fetus and moves Qi.

Take as one dose, add five leaves of green onion and seven Huang Yang Nao (tips of Euonymi Japonici Ramulus), decoct in water, and take after meals. Taking ten-plus doses in the eighth or ninth month is very effective. Add Huang Qin in summer, do not add in winter, add Chuan Xiong in spring. For other syndromes, adjust according to the following principles:
For Qi deficiency, add Ren Shen and Bai Zhu; for Qi excess, double Xiang Fu and Chen Pi; for Blood deficiency, double Dang Gui and add Di Huang; for robust physique, double Zi Su; for irritable temperament, add Huang Lian; for heat, add Huang Qin; for damp-phlegm, add Hua Shi (Talcum) and Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma Preparatum); for food stagnation, add Shan Zha (Crataegi Fructus); for hunger after eating, double Huang Yang Nao; for phlegm, add Ban Xia; for abdominal pain, add Mu Xiang (Aucklandiae Radix) and Gui Zhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus).
