妇人女子，尺脉常盛，而右手脉大，皆其常也。若肾脉微涩，左手关后尺内脉浮，或肝脉沈急，或尺脉
滑而断绝不匀，皆经闭不调之候也。妇人三部浮沈正等，脉来流利均匀和平，无他病而不月者，娠
也。尺脉滑大，数而旺者，亦孕也。又左手尺脉洪大为男，右手沈实为女。又曰洪大为女。经曰、阴搏阳
别，谓之有子。尺内阴脉搏手，则其中有阳脉也。阴阳相谷，故能有子也。凡女子天癸未行之时、属少
阴，既行、属厥阴，已绝、属太阴，胎产之病、属厥阴。凡妇人室女，病伤寒热病及诸寒热气滞，须问经事
若何，产后须问恶露有无多少。
脉动入产门者，有胎也。尺中脉滑而旺者，胎脉。左手尺脉浮洪者为男，右手尺脉沈实为女。关脉滑
者为男。左手寸口脉大为男，右手寸口脉沈细为女。足太阳膀胱洪大是男，足太阴脉洪是女。阳脉
皆为男，阴脉皆为女。阴中见阳为男，阳中见阴为女。手少阴脉动者，□子也。两手尺部俱洪者为两
男，两尺俱沈实者为两女。左手脉逆为三男，右手脉顺者为三女。寸关尺大小连疾相应，是为一男
一女。脉滑而疾者，三月胎候也。但疾而不散者，五月也。关上一动一止者一月。一动二止者二月。根据
此推之，万不失一中。冲是阳明胃脉联系，脉来滑疾者，孕及九旬，尺脉沈细而滑或离经，夜中觉
痛，日中则生矣。
In women, the Chi (Cun Cun) pulse is typically vigorous, and the pulse on the right hand is often larger; these are normal physiological phenomena. If the Kidney pulse is faint and choppy, the pulse within the Chi position behind the Guan (Gate) position on the left hand is floating, or the Liver pulse is deep and tense, or the Chi pulse is slippery but irregular and intermittent, these are all signs of amenorrhea or menstrual irregularity. If the three positions (Cun, Guan, Chi) on both hands show equal depth and force in their floating and sinking qualities, and the pulse comes smoothly, evenly, and peacefully, without other pathological symptoms, yet menstruation has ceased, this indicates pregnancy. A Chi pulse that is slippery, large, rapid, and vigorous also indicates pregnancy. It is further said that a Hong Da (Vigorous and Large) pulse at the left Chi position indicates a male fetus, while a Shen Shi (Deep and Solid) pulse at the right Chi position indicates a female fetus. Another view states that a Hong Da pulse indicates a female fetus. The Classic states: "When Yin pulses beat distinctly separate from Yang, it is called having a child." This means that the Yin pulse at the inner Chi position beats forcefully against the finger, containing characteristics of Yang pulses. When Yin and Yang interact vigorously, conception can occur. For females before the onset of Tian Gui (the essence and blood related to reproductive function), diseases belong to the Shaoyin (Lesser Yin) channel; after its onset, they belong to the Jueyin (Terminal Yin) channel; after its cessation, they belong to the Taiyin (Greater Yin) channel; and diseases related to pregnancy and childbirth belong to the Jueyin channel. For married women and unmarried girls suffering from Shanghan (Cold Damage) febrile diseases or various conditions involving cold-heat qi stagnation, one must inquire about the status of their menstruation. After childbirth, one must inquire about the presence and quantity of Choulu (lochia).
If the pulse movement is felt entering the birth canal, there is a fetus. A Chi pulse that is slippery and vigorous is a fetal pulse. A floating and Hong Da (Vigorous and Large) pulse at the left Chi position indicates a male fetus; a Shen Shi (Deep and Solid) pulse at the right Chi position indicates a female fetus. A slippery pulse at the Guan (Gate) position indicates a male fetus. A Da (Large) pulse at the left Cun Kou (Radial Artery) position indicates a male fetus; a Shen Xi (Deep and Fine) pulse at the right Cun Kou position indicates a female fetus. A Hong Da (Vigorous and Large) pulse in the Foot-Taiyang Bladder channel indicates a male fetus; a Hong (Vigorous) pulse in the Foot-Taiyin Spleen channel indicates a female fetus. Yang-type pulses generally indicate males, and Yin-type pulses generally indicate females. The appearance of Yang characteristics within Yin pulses indicates a male; the appearance of Yin characteristics within Yang pulses indicates a female. A distinct movement in the Hand-Shaoyin Heart pulse indicates pregnancy. If both Chi positions are Hong Da (Vigorous and Large), it indicates twin boys; if both Chi positions are Shen Shi (Deep and Solid), it indicates twin girls. An inverted/rebellious pulse pattern on the left hand indicates triplets of boys; a smooth/compliant pulse pattern on the right hand indicates triplets of girls. If the Cun, Guan, and Chi positions are consistent in size and speed, responding to each other uniformly, this indicates one boy and one girl. A pulse that is slippery and rapid indicates a three-month gestation. If the pulse is rapid but not scattered, it indicates five months' gestation. One beat followed by one pause at the Guan position represents one month; one beat followed by two pauses represents two months. By deducing from this method, one will rarely err. The Chong Mai (Penetrating Vessel) connects with the Yangming Stomach pulse. A slippery and rapid pulse indicates nine months of pregnancy. If the Chi pulse becomes Shen Xi (Deep and Fine) yet slippery, or exhibits Li Jing (Departing from the Normal Channel) characteristics, accompanied by pain felt at night, delivery will occur during the day.
