产后七日内外，患赤白痢，里急后重频并，最为难治。欲调气行血，而推荡痢邪，犹患产后元气虚弱；欲滋荣益气，

Within seven days before or after childbirth, if dysentery with red and white discharge occurs, accompanied by frequent tenesmus (a feeling of incomplete defecation), it is the most difficult condition to treat. If one attempts to regulate qi and move blood to expel the dysenteric pathogen, there is a concern regarding the deficiency of primordial qi postpartum; if one attempts to nourish blood and tonify qi to greatly supplement the deficiency, there is a concern that this will aid the dysenteric pathogen. Only by using Shenghua Tang (Decoction for Generating New Blood) minus dried ginger, and substituting it with Amomum fruit (Muxiang) and Poria (Fuling), can one effectively eliminate lochia while simultaneously treating dysentery, allowing both treatments to proceed without conflict. Subsequently, Xianglian Wan (Pilula of Aromatic and Coptis) should be taken. After one or two days, if the disease severity subsides, safety can be assured. If, after seven days postpartum, brown or multi-colored stool with tenesmus occurs, presenting as frequent deficiency-type dysentery, tonifying herbs must undoubtedly be added. If the parturient has a robust constitution and more than twenty days have passed since delivery, it is appropriate to administer Shenghua Tang combined with Coptis chinensis Rhizome (Huanglian), Scutellariae Radix (Huangqin), Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex (Houpo), and Paeoniae Radix Alba (Shaoyao) to promote the movement of stagnation.
Modified Shenghua Tang: Treats dysentery occurring within seven days postpartum.
Chuanxiong Rhizome (Chuanxiong, 2 qian), Angelica Sinensis Root (Danggui, 5 qian), Prepared Licorice Root (Zhi Gancao, 0.5 qian), Peach Kernel (Taoren, 12 grains), Poria (Fuling, 1 qian), Tangerine Peel (Chenpi, 0.4 qian), Amomum fruit (Muxiang, ground, 0.3 qian).
For red dysentery with abdominal pain, add Amomum fruit (Sharen, 0.8 fen).
Qingxue Wan: Treats Jin Kou Li (Dysentery with inability to eat/drink).
Grind Coptis chinensis Rhizome (Huanglian) and Phellodendri Cortex (Huangbo) into powder, add Lotus Seed Flesh powder (Lianrou Fen), each 1.5 liang, mix evenly to form pills. Take 4 qian with wine.
For cases three to four days postpartum where clots have dispersed and dysentery has slightly subsided, there are ten symptoms listed below for specific treatment:
1. Postpartum chronic diarrhea: Primordial qi sinks, fecal incontinence, sensation of anal prolapse. Appropriate to take Liujunzi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction), plus Amomum fruit (Muxiang, 0.4 qian), one prepared Myristica Seed (Rouguo), and 0.5 fen ginger juice.
2. Postpartum diarrhea and dysentery: Stool is yellow, indicating deficiency of Spleen Earth's true qi. Appropriate to take Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Decoction for Supplementing the Middle and Augmenting Qi), plus Amomum fruit (Muxiang) and Myristica Seed (Rouguo).
3. Postpartum injury from wheat/starch foods: Diarrhea and dysentery. Appropriate to take Shenghua Tang, plus Medicated Leaven (Shenqu) and Malt (Maiya).
(Note: Original text specifies Shenqu and Maiya at 1 qian each.)
4. Postpartum injury from meat foods: Diarrhea and dysentery. Appropriate to take Shenghua Tang, plus Hawthorn Fruit (Shanzha) and Amomum fruit (Sharen).
5. Postpartum weak Stomach qi: Diarrhea and dysentery with undigested food in stool. Should warm and assist Stomach qi. Appropriate to take Liujunzi Tang, plus Amomum fruit (Muxiang, 0.4 qian), one prepared Myristica Seed (Rouguo).
6. Postpartum weak Spleen and Stomach: Edema of the four limbs. Appropriate to take Liujunzi Tang, plus Wupi San (Five-Bark Powder, see edema section later).
7. Postpartum diarrhea and dysentery: No tenesmus, but persistent for a long time. Appropriate to take Liujunzi Tang, plus Amomum fruit (Muxiang) and Myristica Seed (Rouguo).
8. Postpartum red and white dysentery: Pain below the umbilicus. Use Angelica Sinensis Root (Danggui), Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex (Houpo), Coptis chinensis Rhizome (Huanglian), Myristica Seed (Rouguo), Licorice Root (Gancao), Peach Kernel (Taoren), Chuanxiong Rhizome (Chuanxiong).
9. Postpartum chronic dysentery: Red color, belonging to Blood deficiency. Appropriate to take Siwu Tang (Four Substance Decoction), plus Schizonepeta Spike (Jingjie) and Ginseng Root (Renshen).
10. Postpartum chronic dysentery: White color, belonging to Qi deficiency. Appropriate to take Liujunzi Tang, plus Amomum fruit (Muxiang) and Myristica Seed (Rouguo).
Rhyme Prescription:
Treating dysentery postpartum is most difficult; clear and thin duck-dung type indicates Cold.
Red and yellow sticky type indicates Heat; Cold and Heat patterns require careful differentiation.
In Shenghua Tang, remove Black Ginger, add Poria and Guang Amomum.
Treating lochia and dysentery together, parallel methods are best.
For postpartum Jin Kou Li, use Qingxue Wan; half liang lotus seed with Muxiang and Huanglian.
Mix evenly into pills, send down with wine; four qian per dose, three doses for recovery.
Postpartum chronic diarrhea damages primordial qi; anus feels like prolapse, bowel control lost.
Liujunzi Tang plus Muxiang, swallow one Rouguo with ginger juice.
Postpartum chronic dysentery white and pale, etiology is Blood deficiency, nourish with Siwu.
Add Renshen and Jingjie, take several doses to recover health.
Postpartum chronic dysentery red and crimson, Qi deficiency also uses Liujunzi.
Add Muxiang and Rouguo together, take several doses and dysentery stops naturally.
