Whenever a woman in labor is startled and panicked, or exerts force too early, causing excessive loss of amniotic fluid (Jiangshui) and dryness making delivery difficult, she should quickly take this prescription to nourish Qi and Blood to assist the expulsive power. For those with severe deficiency, taking two or three doses rapidly will surely be effective; however, it should be drunk in large bowls without hesitation. Remember this, remember this.
Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma) (8 fen; for deficiency, use 1.2 qian. Laypeople often avoid using Ren Shen fearing upward reversal of fetal Qi, but since Dang Gui is used in multiples of Ren Shen's dosage, upward reversal is impossible; rather, it assists the medicinal power to descend. Moreover, using it after the amniotic fluid has started flowing is particularly safe.) Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma) (stir-fried with aged soil, 1 qian) Fu Ling (Poria) (8 fen) Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) (5 qian) Zhi Gan Cao (Prepared Licorice Root) (3 fen) Chuan Xiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) (1.5 qian) Bai Shao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) (wine-fried, 1 qian) Da Shu Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata) (1.5 qian) Ming Ru Xiang (Olibanum) (5 fen) Dan Shen (Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (wine-fried, 3 qian) Yi Mu Cao (Leonuri Herba) (2 qian). Decoct in water and drink. In winter when cold, add Hei Jiang (Black Ginger/Zingiberis Rhizoma Carbonisatum) 5 fen. If vomiting occurs after taking the medicine, add Sheng Jiang (Fresh Ginger) 2 slices and Sha Ren (Amomi Fructus Rotundus) 5 fen.
If amniotic fluid loss is excessive, resulting in transverse or breech presentation, employ an experienced and steady midwife to gently correct the fetal position, then immediately administer this decoction, ensuring smooth delivery and safety. In summary, before the amniotic fluid flows, use Bao Sheng Wu You San (Preserve Life Without Worries Powder) to facilitate the fetus; if amniotic fluid loss is excessive, one must use Jia Wei Ba Zhen Tang (Modified Eight-Treasure Decoction) to greatly tonify Qi and Blood to assist the birth process, ensuring safe delivery.
Zhu Sha (Cinnabar) (finely ground and washed with water, 5 qian) Ming Ru Xiang (Olibanum) (roasted dry on bamboo leaves, 1 liang). Grind into powder. On the Dragon Boat Festival (Duanwu), form pills using pig heart blood, sized like Euryale Seed (Qianshi). Take one pill per dose, delivered with a decoction of Dang Gui (3 qian) and Chuan Xiong (2 qian).
Zhu Sha (Cinnabar) (5 qian) Ding Xiang (Caryophylli Flos) (5 qian) She Xiang (Moschus) (1 qian) Ming Ru Xiang (Olibanum) (1 liang) Shi Yan (Fossilized Bat Bones/Eosphorus) (one pair, one female [round] and one male [long], soaked in vinegar seven times). Grind into powder. Select auspicious days (Tian De or Yue De days), use Yi Mu Cao paste to form pills, sized like Euryale Seed. Take one or two pills per dose, delivered with Gui Xiong Tang (Decoction of Dang Gui and Chuan Xiong).
