产后潮热有汗，大便不通，毋专论为阳明症；口燥咽干而渴，毋专论为少阴症；腹满嗌干，大便
实，毋专论为太阴症。又汗出，谵语，便秘，毋专谓为胃中有燥屎。且下数症多由劳倦伤脾，运化稽迟，
气血枯竭，肠腑燥涸，乃虚症类实，当补之症，治者毋执偏门轻产而妄议三承气汤，以治类三阴之症
也。若少旺产患，以类症妄下，侥幸万一，幸毋仿此。且虚弱产妇而复误下，则虚虚之祸大乎。屡见妄
下成臌，误导反结。又有血少数日不通，误而即下，致泻不止者，不可慎欤。
养正通幽汤 治产后大便秘，类三阴伤寒症。

Tidal fever with sweating and unsmooth bowel movements after childbirth should not be exclusively diagnosed as Yangming disease (disease of the Yangming channel); dry mouth and throat with thirst should not be exclusively diagnosed as Shaoyin disease (disease of the Shaoyin channel); abdominal fullness, dry throat, and solid stool should not be exclusively diagnosed as Taiyin disease (disease of the Taiyin channel). Furthermore, cases involving sweating, delirium (speaking incoherently), and constipation should not simply be attributed to dry feces in the stomach. Moreover, most of the aforementioned symptoms arise from fatigue damaging the Spleen Qi, leading to sluggish transportation and transformation, depletion of Qi and Blood, and desiccation of the intestinal Fu organs. This presents as a deficiency syndrome mimicking excess (Xu Zheng Lei Shi), which actually requires tonification. Physicians must not adhere to biased views or underestimate the postpartum constitution to recklessly prescribe San Chengqi Tang (Three Inevitable Purgative Decoctions) for treating these conditions resembling Three Yin diseases. Even if a robust postpartum patient is mistakenly purged due to similar symptoms and happens to survive once, one must never imitate this practice. For weak postpartum patients, misusing purgatives again will cause severe harm by further depleting the deficient state ("making the deficient even more deficient"). It has been frequently observed that reckless purging leads to abdominal distension (Gu Zhang), and misguided treatment results in pathological accumulation. There are also cases where blood deficiency causes constipation for several days; mistaking this for excess and using purgatives leads to incessant diarrhea. Should one not be cautious?
