小柴胡汤(见崩淋经漏不止)
When a woman contracts cold damage (Shanghan), or experiences fever due to overexertion or anger, and happens to be menstruating, heat may enter the Blood Chamber (the uterus and the blood aspect of the Liver meridian). This results in either continuous bleeding or cessation of menstrual flow. The condition is characterized by clear consciousness and calmness during the day, while at night the patient becomes delirious, speaking as if seeing ghosts.
If the heat enters from the exterior due to external pathogens, Yi Chaihu Yin (One Bupleurum Decoction), San Chaihu Yin (Three Bupleurum Decoction), Si Chaihu Yin (Four Bupleurum Decoction), or Liangfang Huanglong Tang (Excellent Formula Yellow Dragon Decoction) with added Sheng Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix) should be used, selected according to the specific situation.
Yi Chaihu Yin (See *Xin Fang Ba Zhen · San Zhen*): The number "one" corresponds to Water, possessing a cold nature to disperse cold. It is indicated for cases where one contracts abnormal qi of the four seasons, presenting with fever or alternating chills and fever; or due to labor or anger; or for women with heat entering the Blood Chamber; or postpartum or post-menstrual cases complicated by wind-cold invasion, leading to symptoms like malaria-like chills and fever. Whenever there are external pathogens combined with internal fire, a cooling and dispersing method is required, making this formula appropriate.
Ingredients: Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix) 2-3 qian, Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix) 1.5 qian, Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) 2 qian, Sheng Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix) 1.5 qian, Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) 1.5 qian, Gan Cao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) 8 fen.
Preparation: Add 1.5 zhong of water, decoct until 0.7-0.8 zhong remains, take warm. If internal heat is severe, add Lian Qiao (Forsythiae Fructus) 1-2 qian as needed. If external pathogenic factors are severe, add Fang Feng (Saposhnikoviae Radix) 1 qian as an assistant. If pathogenic factors are constrained in the chest causing fullness and obstruction, remove Sheng Di Huang and add Zhi Shi (Aurantii Fructus Immaturus) 1-2 qian. If heat is in the Yangming channel accompanied by thirst, add Tian Hua Fen (Trichosanthis Radix) or Ge Gen (Puerariae Lobatae Radix) 1-2 qian; for severe heat, Zhi Mu (Anemarrhenae Rhizoma) and Shi Gao (Gypsum Fibrosum) may also be added.
San Chaihu Yin (See *Xin Fang Ba Zhen · San Zhen*): The number "three" corresponds to Wood, relating to the Blood aspect of the Liver channel. It is indicated for individuals with inherent deficiency of Yin, or insufficient blood in the Liver channel who accidentally contract wind-cold; or those with shallow pathogenic invasion that can be treated with both tonification and dispersion; or post-illness/postpartum colds where dispersion is necessary but Qi and Blood are too weak to expel the pathogen. This formula is suitable.
Ingredients: Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix) 2-3 qian, Shao Yao (Paeoniae Radix Alba) 1.5 qian, Zhi Gan Cao (Prepared Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) 1 qian, Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) 1 qian, Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) 3-5 slices, Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) 2 qian (replace with Shu Di Huang if loose stools occur).
Preparation: Add 1.5 zhong of water, decoct until 0.7-0.8 zhong remains, take warm. For mild chills, cough, and vomiting, add Ban Xia (Pinelliae Rhizoma) 1-2 qian.
Si Chaihu Yin (See *Xin Fang Ba Zhen · San Zhen*): The number "four" corresponds to Metal, relating to the Qi aspect. It is indicated for individuals with insufficient Yuan Qi (Original Qi), or those contracting wind-cold after enduring hunger and fatigue, or presenting with tight, rapid, fine, or thin pulses indicating Righteous Qi failing to overcome Pathogenic Factors. It is essential to support Yuan Qi while dispersing pathogens to preserve life; this formula is appropriate. If one only knows how to disperse pathogens without protecting the root, Yuan Qi will inevitably fail first; careful observation is required.
Ingredients: Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix) 1-3 qian, Zhi Gan Cao (Prepared Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) 1 qian, Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens) 3-7 slices, Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) 2-3 qian (use less if diarrhea occurs), Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) 2-3 qian or 5-7 qian, used according to discretion.
Preparation: Add 2 zhong of water, decoct until 0.7-0.8 zhong remains, take warm. For stagnation and oppression in the chest and diaphragm, add Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) 1 qian.
Liangfang Huanglong Tang (See Supplementary Formulas for Menstrual Regulation Theory):
If anger or labor causes fire to arise internally, and the patient sweats profusely without exterior signs, Bao Yin Jian (Preserve Yin Decoction), Qing Hua Yin (Clear Transformation Decoction), or Dang Gui Liu Huang Tang (Dang Gui Six-Huang Decoction) modified should be used.
Bao Yin Jian (See Early Menstruation due to Blood Heat)
Qing Hua Yin (See Early Menstruation due to Blood Heat)
Dang Gui Liu Huang Tang (See *Gu Fang Ba Zhen · Han Zhen*): A sacred medicine for treating nocturnal sweating.
Ingredients: Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix - honey-fried, each 2 qian), Sheng Di Huang (Rehmanniae Radix), Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmanniae Radix), Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma), Huang Qin (Scutellariae Radix), Huang Bai (Phellodendri Cortex) (each 1 qian).
Preparation: Add 2 zhong of water and decoct.
If the illness is gradually resolving but the patient has inherently weak Yuan Qi, with residual heat and uncontrolled bleeding, Bu Yin Yi Qi Jian (Tonify Yin and Boost Qi Decoction) or Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction) should be used. If Spleen Qi is inherently weak, Gui Pi Tang (Restore the Spleen Decoction) is suitable; if both Qi and Blood are weak, Shi Quan Da Bu Tang (Ten Complete Great Tonifying Decoction) is appropriate to avoid error.
Bu Yin Yi Qi Jian (See *Xin Fang Ba Zhen · Bu Zhen*): This is a variation of Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang. It treats injuries to Yin from overexertion, where Essence fails to transform into Qi, or internal deficiency of Yin leading to unresolved exterior contraction, malaria-like chills and fever, or constipation due to Yin deficiency. For conditions involving insufficiency of Yin Qi with invasion of deficient pathogens, using this formula to lift and disperse yields miraculous effects.
Ingredients: Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) 1-3 qian, Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) 2-3 qian, Shan Yao (Dioscoreae Rhizoma - wine-fried) 2-3 qian, Shu Di Huang (Prepared Rehmanniae Radix) 3-5 qian or 1-2 liang, Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) 1 qian, Zhi Gan Cao (Prepared Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) 1 qian, Sheng Ma ( Cimicifugae Rhizoma) 3-5 fen (omit if Fire floats upward), Chai Hu (Bupleuri Radix) 1-2 qian (omit if no external pathogen exists).
Preparation: Add 2 zhong of water, add 3-7 slices of Sheng Jiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens), decoct until 0.8 zhong remains, take warm well after meals.

Gui Pi Tang (See Irregular Menstruation)
Shi Quan Da Bu Tang (See Supplementary Formulas for Menstrual Regulation Theory)
If there is abundant Blood Heat with significant stasis, Xiao Chai Hu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) with added Mu Dan Pi (Moutan Cortex), Hong Hua (Carthami Flos), and Dang Gui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix) should be used.
