堕胎是因为血虚气弱,不能滋养胎儿而导致自然流产。这就好比草木一样,树枝干枯果实就会掉落,藤蔓枯萎花朵就会坠落,胎儿也是如此。因为气虚则提摄固护无力,血虚则灌溉营养不周,所以导致胎堕。因此善于保胎的人,必须专门补益气血,以胎元饮为主方,并根据症状加减使用。其次是芎归补中汤、泰山磐石散、千金保胎丸、保胎无忧丸,这些方剂都能发挥造化般的功效,是妊娠期间保胎的至宝。

Spontaneous abortion is caused by deficiency of blood and qi, which fails to nourish the fetus, leading to natural miscarriage. It is like plants: when branches wither, fruits fall; when vines decline, flowers drop; the same applies to the fetus. Since qi deficiency leads to weak retention and consolidation, and blood deficiency results in inadequate irrigation and nourishment, the fetus is lost. Therefore, those skilled in preserving pregnancy must specifically tonify qi and blood, using Taiyuan Yin (Fetal Origin Decoction) as the main formula, modified according to symptoms. Next are Xiongui Buzhong Tang (Ligusticum and Angelica Decoction for Tonifying the Middle), Taishan Panshi San (Mount Tai Porphyry Powder), Qianjin Baotai Wan (Thousand-Gold Fetus-Preserving Pill), and Baotai Wuyou Wan (Fetus-Preserving Worries-Free Pill). These formulas can achieve miraculous effects and are the supreme treasures for pregnancy preservation.

Add two zhong of water, decoct to seven-tenths, take far after meals.
If lower yuan is insecure with frequent turbid discharge, add Huangqi (Astragali Radix) (honey-fried) 1 qian (but Baizhu has floating qi that may obstruct the stomach appetite; if there is fullness and discomfort in the chest and diaphragm, use with caution).
For deficiency combined with cold causing frequent vomiting, add Paojiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Praeparatum) 0.7-0.8 fen or 1 fen. For deficiency combined with heat, add Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) 1.5 qian, or add Shengdihuang (Rehmanniae Radix) 2 qian, remove Duzhong.

For frequent anger causing qi reversal, add Xiangfu (Cyperi Rhizoma) (processed) 0.7 fen, or add Sharen (Amomi Fructus) 0.7 fen. If movement due to external contact causes bleeding, add Chuanxuduan (Dipsaci Radix) (fried) and Ejiao (Asini Corii Colla) (fried into beads) each 1-2 qian; for incessant vomiting, add Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) (processed with ginger juice, fried) 1-2 qian, and Shengjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) 3-5 slices.
