崩淋之病,相似而实不同,崩者如土之崩,其势大下而不禁,乃血热而兼气虚,不能收摄也
。淋者如水淋漓,艰涩而不通快,乃内郁热而气亦滞也。然崩则纯血,淋则有赤白沙石之异
,赤者属血,白者属气,沙石者,气血之尤浊者也。治此病者,惟调其气血,清其内热而已
。
郑文康曰∶妇人暴崩下血,此因肾水阴虚,不镇制胞络相火,故血走而崩也,凉血地黄汤主
之。然此症多起于内伤,若小腹不痛,只宜此药,或八物汤加芩连。若痛者,先宜大剂四物
汤,归身、白芍、川芎倍之,加醋制香附。若用补药,宜补宫汤加芩连。又血崩证有二说∶
瘀血也,空痛也。瘀血者,体必作寒热;空痛者,不作寒热也,瘀血则当去,空痛则当补。
亦有血海虚寒,外乘风冷,搏结不散,血气成块而得之,宜神仙聚宝丹。又有血气损而得之
者,凝聚成块,七 八瘕,上则气逆呕吐,下则泻痢五血,宜内炙散。血崩之人,如服煎药
不效者,火也,三黄汤主之,去大黄,加黄柏。如妇人血崩不止,乃冲任虚弱,脏腑虚冷所
致也。亦有小腹急痛,兼下赤白带,宜加减吴萸汤,或艾煎丸。若去血过多,气血不足,四
肢倦怠,宜增损四物汤。盖妇人血漏血脱,则宜固气,此古圣之心法也。先补胃气,以助生
发之源,诸甘药为之先务,益胃升阳汤是也。此药人皆认以为补气,殊不知甘能生血,此亦
阳生阴长之理也。又人身以谷为宝,药料须视其食之多寡而轻重之,毋令药气胜于谷气乃妙
耳。如腹痛,加乌药三分,官桂少许。口渴者,加葛根三分。如妇人年老血崩,八物汤加芩
连。此一时急救之药也,必先顾其胃气为妙,如血崩,服煎剂不止,易用散子之药,如棕灰
锅底墨,炒黑山栀、槐花、侧柏、人参、黄 、甘草之类为末,童便送下。若以为丸更妙,
或用小蓟汁、藕汁调服。经曰∶带下血崩,脉多浮动虚迟者生,实数者重。诀曰∶生地合蒲
黄,黄芩黄柏凉,人参兼五味,解毒细煎汤,水煮空心服,崩中带下良。暴者属血热,宜养
血清火,治宜温清散。血崩月久属虚寒,又宜温补,宜益母汤。其寸口脉弦而大,弦则为减
,大则为芤,减则为寒,芤则为虚,寒虚相搏,此名曰革。

The diseases of Ben (sudden heavy uterine bleeding) and Lin (dysuria with dribbling) are similar in appearance but different in essence. Ben is like a landslide, with massive bleeding that cannot be controlled; this is due to blood heat combined with Qi deficiency, resulting in the failure of Qi and Blood to consolidate and retain. Lin resembles dripping water, difficult and unsmooth, caused by internal stagnation of heat and stagnant Qi. However, Ben involves pure blood, whereas Lin presents differences in red, white, sand, and stone characteristics. Red indicates involvement of Blood, white indicates involvement of Qi, and sand/stone represents the most turbid aspects of Qi and Blood. To treat these conditions, one only needs to regulate Qi and Blood and clear internal heat.
Zheng Wenkang stated: Sudden heavy bleeding in women is caused by Kidney Water Yin deficiency, which fails to control the Minister Fire in the Bao Liao (uterine collaterals), causing blood to rush and bleed heavily. Liangxue Dihuang Tang (Cooling Blood Rehmannia Decoction) should be used as the primary treatment. However, this condition often arises from internal injury. If there is no lower abdominal pain, this formula alone is suitable, or Bawu Tang (Eight Substance Decoction) can be modified with Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) and Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma). If there is pain, a large dose of Siwu Tang (Four Substance Decoction) should be used first, doubling the dosage of Danggui Shen (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Baishao (Paeoniae Radix Alba), and Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma), and adding Xiangfu (Cyperi Rhizoma) processed with vinegar. If using tonifying herbs, Bugong Tang (Uterus-Tonifying Decoction) with Huangqin and Huanglian is appropriate. Furthermore, there are two theories regarding Ben: one is stasis of Blood, the other is "empty pain." Those with stasis of Blood must experience alternating chills and fever; those with empty pain do not. Stasis of Blood requires removal, while empty pain requires tonification. There are also cases where the Sea of Blood is deficient and cold, external wind-cold invades and binds without dispersing, causing Qi and Blood to coagulate into masses; Shenshen Jubao Dan (Divine Immortal Treasure-Gathering Pill) is indicated. In cases caused by damage to Qi and Blood, coagulation forms masses known as Seven Zha and Eight Jia (abdominal masses); upward, it causes rebellious Qi and vomiting; downward, it causes dysentery with five types of bloody stools; Neizhi San (Internal Moxibustion Powder) is indicated. For patients with Ben who do not respond to decoctions, the condition is attributed to Fire; Sanhuang Tang (Three Yellows Decoction) is used, removing Dahuang (Rhei Radix et Rhizoma) and adding Huangbai (Phellodendri Cortex). If a woman's bleeding does not stop, it is due to weakness of the Chong and Ren vessels and cold deficiency of the Zang-Fu organs. This may also present with urgent lower abdominal pain and discharge of red and white leukorrhea; Jiajian Wuzhu Yu Tang (Modified Evodia Decoction) or Aijian Wan (Mugwort Decoction Pill) is indicated. If excessive blood loss leads to Qi and Blood deficiency, manifesting as limb fatigue, Zengsun Siwu Tang (Modified Four Substance Decoction) is suitable. Generally, for women suffering from blood leakage and depletion, consolidating Qi is essential; this is the core method of ancient sages. First, tonify Stomach Qi to aid the source of generation; sweet-flavored herbs are prioritized, such as in Yiwei Shengyang Tang (Stomach-Tonifying and Yang-Raising Decoction). People often mistake this for merely tonifying Qi, not realizing that sweet flavors generate Blood, following the principle of Yang generating Yin. Moreover, the human body treasures grain Qi; herbal dosages must be adjusted according to food intake, ensuring the medicinal Qi does not overpower the grain Qi. If abdominal pain occurs, add Wuyao (Linderae Radix) 3 fen and Guangui (Cinnamomi Ramulus) a little. If thirsty, add Gegen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix) 3 fen. For elderly women with Ben, Bawu Tang with Huangqin and Huanglian is used. This is an emergency rescue formula; protecting Stomach Qi is paramount. If decoctions fail to stop Ben, powders can be used, such as Zonghui (Palmae Fructus Cinchona Ash), Goudimo (Pot Bottom Ink), Chao Hei Shanzhi (Fried Gardeniae Fructus), Huaihua (Sophorae Flos), Cebaiye (Platycladi Cacumen), Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Huangqi (Astragali Radix), and Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma), ground into powder and taken with Tongbian (Child's Urine). Pills are even better, or they can be taken with Xiaojizhi (Leonuri Herba juice) or Ouji (Nelumbinis Rhizoma juice). The Classic states: For leukorrhea and Ben, floating, deficient, and slow pulses indicate survival, while excess and rapid pulses indicate severe disease. The Aphorism states: Shengdi (Rehmanniae Radix) combined with Puhuang (Typhae Pollen), Huangqin and Huangbai cool, Renshen and Wuweizi (Schisandrae Fructus) detoxify; finely decocted and taken on an empty stomach, it treats Ben and leukorrhea well. Acute cases belong to blood heat; nourish Blood and clear fire; use Wenqing San (Warming and Cooling Powder). Chronic Ben belongs to deficiency-cold; use warming and tonification; use Yimu Tang (Motherwort Decoction). If the Cun Kou pulse is wiry and large, wiry indicates reduction, large indicates Kuo (hollow); reduction implies cold, hollow implies deficiency; cold and deficiency interacting is named Ge (leather-like) pulse.
