[Pulse Diagnosis] Metrorrhagia pulse: Investigate the root cause. If all six pulses are solid and large, it indicates a severe condition. If sudden heavy bleeding occurs, the prognosis is immediately seen as poor. If the Cun positions of both wrists appear slippery, pregnancy might be present. A slow pulse is auspicious; a deep and hidden pulse is difficult to treat. A floating pulse accompanied by a Dai pulse (intermittent pulse) indicates the disease will likely not recover. A slow and small pulse often leads to recovery; a洪 (surging) pulse indicates a deficiency pattern.
[Pulse Diagnosis] Retrograde menstruation pulse: The Right Cun pulse is floating and surging; the Chi positions of both wrists feel like a涩 (choppy) pulse. This is Yin fire attacking upward, causing coughing and spitting of bloody phlegm. Without blood stasis, it is easy to clear; if lower deficiency allows upper pathogenic factors to ascend, Qi must rebel and rush upward. A harmonious and slow pulse is auspicious; a rigid pulse is ominous.
Regarding Heat Entering the Blood Chamber:
I have pondered what this condition of "Heat Entering the Blood Chamber" entails? Reading the *Jin Gui Yao Lue*, I learned that there are five types of Heat Entering the Blood Chamber. The first type is primarily treated with Xiao Chai Hu Tang. Because a woman suffers from alternating chills and fever, causing her menses to suddenly stop, one must urgently lift the Shaoyang pathogen to prevent it from sinking inward, which is the best approach. The second type involves Taiyang cold damage with fever, while menses has just begun. There are symptoms of clarity during the day and worsening at night, delirium, and hallucinations of seeing ghosts. One must fear misdiagnosing this as a Yangming excess syndrome, hence the warning against damaging Stomach Qi and the Upper and Middle Jiao. The third type involves wind-stroke with alternating chills and fever, while menses has just begun. After seven or eight days, the pulse is slow, the body is cool, there is fullness in the chest and hypochondrium resembling Jie Xiong (chest binding), and if there is delirium, it shows no exterior syndrome but fully reveals signs of Heat Entering the Blood Chamber. One should urgently puncture the Qimen acupoint, demonstrating that acupuncture power surpasses herbal power. The fourth type involves Yangming disease with bleeding and delirium, with sweating only on the head; this is also Heat Entering the Blood Chamber, and one should also puncture Qimen, resulting in cure through sweating. The fifth type elucidates one symptom while mentioning other causes, thus lacking detailed differentiation. For example, if phlegm-saliva surges upward causing coma and unconsciousness, one must first eliminate the phlegm, then clear the heat, etc. This is the principle of treating urgent matters first. Nowadays, people only know of Heat Entering the Blood Chamber without distinguishing the severity of the heat pathogen or the fullness/emptiness of the Blood Chamber, and exclusively use Xiao Chai Hu Tang for treatment, causing much harm. Observing Mr. Ye Tianshi, for cases of severe heat and blood stasis, he used Tao Ren Cheng Qi Tang combined with Shan Jia (Manis Squama) and Dang Gui Wei (Angelicae Sinensis Radix tail) to direct the stasis-heat downward. For cases where the Blood residence is empty and heat pathogen has sunk in, he used Xi Jiao Di Huang Tang added with Danshen (Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix) and Mutong (Akebiae Caulis) to allow heat to drain downward. For cases with residual exterior pathogens, he used harmonizing methods. For cases of Blood Binding in the Chest, he used Guizhi Honghua Tang with Haige (Concha Meretricis) and Taoren. For cases of stasis-heat causing mania, he used Niuhuang Gao (Calculus Bovis Paste) to clear it. Did he ever stick solely to the Xiao Chai Hu method? Furthermore, observing the case of treating Mr. Wu's febrile disease for seventeen days: because he fell ill three days after his menses began, the heat pathogen sank inward due to emptiness. It was treated according to the model of Xu Xue (Stored Blood) causing mania. The formula used Zelan to move Qi and detoxify, Danpi to clear heat from the blood, Zhi Jun (Radix et Rhizoma Rhei Preparata) and Taoren to purge stasis and clear sunken heat, Shengdi (Rehmanniae Radix) and Renzhongbai (Urinae Humanis Depuratum) to preserve Yin and save the interior. This can be called meticulous methodology and careful treatment. From this one corner, one can infer the other three. I have treated this condition most frequently, always basing my legislation on the *Jin Gui* and referring to guidelines, ensuring each case suits its specific needs. Because modern women often neglect warmth and cold, and do not regulate their diet, many contract external pathogens during menstruation, leading to Heat Entering the Blood Chamber. Those who consume rich foods and know self-care rarely get this disease; those who eat coarse food and lack care get it frequently. Whenever treating women's diseases, one must inquire about the menstrual flow. Whether menses has arrived and been exposed to Wind-Cold, Summer-Heat, or Dampness; or whether exposure to these pathogens caused menses to arrive exactly then; or whether menses arrives around half a month into the illness—all can lead to Heat Entering the Blood Chamber. If the patient says her period is far off, one must still urgently treat the pathogen, fearing that lingering pathogens will weaken Zheng Qi, causing menses to arrive exactly when the disease qi is not yet exhausted, allowing pathogens to enter due to emptiness. One must urgently clear remaining pathogens and absolutely avoid mixing in Blood-level medications, lest they guide pathogens into the Blood level. I have formulated three prescriptions with various modifications to treat Heat Entering the Blood Chamber, hoping for some minor benefit.
Furthermore, regarding Heat Entering the Blood Chamber: married women suffer slightly less severely, while virgins suffer more severely. Why? Married women's viscera are already open/dispersed; although pathogens enter the Blood level, they are easily dispersed. Virgins' viscera are dense/tight; pathogens entering the Blood Chamber are not easily released outward, making treatment difficult to disperse. Every time I treat this condition, I must ask how many days the cycle is. Whether the pathogen was contracted before or after the illness, assessing the depth, severity, and lightness of the pathogen, and the exterior-interior, slow-fast nature of the medication. Women's menstruation varies in abundance and scarcity, and timing varies in slowness and speed. Or how many days menses normally lasts. If menses lasts only one day and external pathogens are contracted, the blood stasis will likely be abundant. If menses is about to end and external pathogens strike, even if heat sinks into the Blood Chamber, the blood stasis will likely be scant. Abundant stasis means Zheng Qi is not yet deficient; scant stasis means Zheng Qi is already deficient. Also ask if there is lower abdominal pain, and observe if the spirit/mind is clear. Abdominal pain with coma indicates abundant stasis; no abdominal pain with clear mind indicates scant stasis. One must also distinguish the physical manifestations. Speech impediment indicates Wind pathogen; spontaneous sweating also indicates Wind; heaviness of body indicates Damp pathogen; chills and fever without sweating indicate Cold pathogen; thirst and red face indicate Summer-Heat combined with Damp. One must also examine the pulse. A stringy and forceful pulse indicates a dangerous condition; a leisurely and slow pulse indicates a mild condition. Slow and cold pulses require warming; rapid and hot pulses require clearing. This condition requires urgent treatment, not delayed treatment. I briefly narrate these words for reference.
