[Da Lun] Postpartum hematuria (blood in urine) occurs due to deficiency of Qi and Blood, allowing Heat pathogens to invade. When Blood is affected by Heat, it flows and scatters, seeping into the interior of the Baogong (uterus/bladder area), thus causing blood to be discharged with urine.
[Xue Ji's Case] A postpartum woman presented with hematuria, sallow complexion, distension in the hypochondrium, and poor appetite. This indicates Liver Wood overacting on Spleen Earth. She was cured by alternating administration of Jia Wei Xiao Yao San (Modified Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) and Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction). Later, due to emotional depression, she developed poor appetite, fatigue, palpitations, insomnia, and recurrent bleeding. After taking Jia Wei Gui Pi Tang (Modified Restore the Spleen Decoction) for more than twenty doses, her condition was nearly resolved. However, misled by public opinion, she took Xi Jiao Di Huang Tang (Rhinoceros Horn and Rehmannia Decoction), which caused all symptoms to recur. She was subsequently cured by resuming the previous prescription (Jia Wei Gui Pi Tang).
Prescription for treating hematuria:
Fa Luan (Human Hair) (Washed clean with hot water to remove grease and dirt)
Burn the above material, grind into powder, and take one Fang Cun Bi (a square-inch measure) mixed with rice water.
Another prescription: Use Hua Shi (Talcum) (ground) and Fa Hui (Hair Ash) in equal parts. Take one Qian per dose, administered with Sheng Di Huang Zhi (Juice of Fresh Rehmannia Root).
Cui Shi's Prescription: Treats postpartum blood seeping into the large and small intestines.
Mi (Honey) (One Da He)
Che Qian Cao (Plantago Leaf/Herb) (Crushed to extract juice, One Sheng)
Mix and boil until bubbling, divide into two doses.
Bu Yi Prescription: Treats postpartum hematuria.
Chuan Niu Xi (Cyathulae Radix) (Remove the radicle)
Decoct in water and take.
Another prescription:
Sheng Di Huang Zhi (Juice of Fresh Rehmannia Root) (Half a Sheng)
Sheng Jiang Zi Ran Zhi (Fresh Ginger Juice) (Half a He)
Mix and take.
[Xue Ji's Commentary] Postpartum hematochezia (blood in stool) may result from improper diet or lifestyle, or from the Six Excesses (Wind, Cold, Summerheat, Dampness, Dryness, Fire) and Seven Emotions, leading to depletion of Yuan Qi (Original Qi) and external injury to Yang Collaterals. Treatment methods: If caused by accumulation of heat from rich food, use Jia Wei Qing Wei San (Modified Stomach-Clearing Powder). If caused by damp-toxin from alcohol, use Ge Hua Jie Cheng Tang (Ardisia Flower Decoction to Resolve Intoxication). If caused by anger stirring up Liver Fire, use Liu Jun Zi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) added with Shao Yao (Peony), Chai Hu (Bupleurum), Xiong (Ligusticum), and Dang Gui (Angelica). If caused by constraint injuring the Spleen, use Jia Wei Gui Pi Tang (Modified Restore the Spleen Decoction). If caused by excessive thinking injuring the Heart, use Miao Xiang San (Wonderful Incense Powder). If caused by Wind-Heat in the Large Intestine, use Si Wu Tang (Four Substances Decoction) added with Ce Bai Ye (Biota Tip), Jing Jie (Schizonepeta), Fang Feng (Saposhnikovia), Zhi Ke (Aurantii Fructus), and Huai Hua (Sophora Flower). If caused by Blood-Heat in the Large Intestine, use Si Wu Tang added with Huang Qin (Scutellaria) and Lian Lian (Coptis). If caused by Spleen-Stomach weakness, use Liu Jun Zi Tang added with Sheng Ma (Cimicifuga) and Chai Hu (Bupleurum). If caused by Spleen-Stomach deficiency-cold, use Liu Jun Zi Tang added with Rou Dou Kou (Nutmeg) and Mu Xiang (Aucklandia). If caused by sinking of Yuan Qi, use Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang added with Fu Ling (Poria) and Ban Xia (Pinellia). If caused by Qi deficiency, use Liu Jun Zi Tang and Sheng Ma. If caused by Blood deficiency, use Si Wu Tang. If both Qi and Blood are deficient, use Ba Zhen Tang (Eight Treasures Decoction), adding Chai Hu and Sheng Ma. Generally, in prolonged illness or weak Yuan Qi, presenting with various symptoms, the root cause is often Spleen-Stomach damage, manifesting as true cold internally and false heat externally. In such cases, only use Liu Jun Zi Tang or Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang added with Pao Jiang (Prepared Ginger) to warm and tonify Spleen Qi, after which all symptoms will recede. If there is aversion to cold in the four limbs, indicating Yang deficiency-cold, urgently add Fu Zi (Aconite). Etiologies are diverse; clinical judgment must be applied flexibly to avoid errors.
Case 1: A postpartum woman passed blood after defecation; various medicines failed. She had poor appetite and limb fatigue, indicating Spleen Qi deficiency. She was treated with Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang added with Wu Zhu Yu (Evodia) and Chao Huang Lian (Stir-fried Coptis, 5 fen). After four doses, bleeding stopped abruptly. However, palpitations, insomnia, and night sweats persisted. She was cured using Gui Pi Tang (Restore the Spleen Decoction).
Case 2: A woman experienced hematochezia whenever angry, accompanied by alternating chills and fever, bitter taste, sometimes chest/hypochondriac distension/pain, or abdominal fullness. This indicates Liver Wood overacting on Spleen Earth. She was cured using Liu Jun Zi Tang added with Shan Zhi (Gardenia) and Chai Hu (Bupleurum). Subsequent maintenance with Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang and Jia Wei Xiao Yao San prevented recurrence.
Case 3: A woman suffered from chronic hematochezia, with blood appearing before stool. This belongs to Spleen-Stomach deficiency-cold and sinking of Yuan Qi. She was treated with Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang added with Lian Lian (Coptis) and Chao Wu Zhu Yu (Stir-fried Evodia, 1 qian). Symptoms eased slightly after several doses. Then, raw Wu Zhu Yu (5 fen) was added, and she was cured after several more doses.
Case 4: A postpartum woman presented with hematochezia, dry mouth desiring soup, chest/hypochondriac distension, abdominal heaviness/dragging sensation, internal heat worsening at dusk, poor appetite, fatigue, sallow complexion, afternoon facial redness, and aversion to cold/shivering. This indicates Spleen and Lung Qi deficiency. Initially, Liu Jun Zi Tang added with Pao Jiang (Prepared Ginger) and Mu Xiang (Aucklandia) gradually improved symptoms. Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang brought her near recovery. Finally, Gui Pi Tang (Restore the Spleen Decoction) led to complete cure. Later, due to irregular diet, overwork, and anger, she developed fever and metrorrhagia (flooding), severe night fever, and continuous delirium. This indicates Heat entering the Blood Chamber (Xue Shi). She was treated with Jia Wei Xiao Chai Hu Tang (Modified Minor Bupleurum Decoction) for two doses to resolve the fever, then Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang to stop bleeding, and finally Xiao Yao San (Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) and Gui Pi Tang for regulation, resulting in recovery.
