Women suffering from leukorrhea with red and white discharge. If blood loss amounts to several sheng per day, a rapid and urgent pulse indicates death, while a slow pulse indicates survival. It is also said that a small, deficient, and slippery pulse indicates survival, whereas a large, tight, solid, and rapid pulse indicates death. Furthermore, if the pulses at the Cun (inch) and Chi (cubit) positions are deficient, it signifies bleeding; if the pulse for bleeding is floating, it is intractable.
The condition of sudden heavy bleeding (Bengzhong) and continuous dripping bleeding (Louxia) in women arises from labor-induced damage to Qi and Blood, resulting in deficiency and impairment of the Chong (Penetrating Vessel) and Ren (Conception Vessel). The Chong and Ren vessels are the seas of the twelve meridians, originating within the Bao Palace (uterus), and are connected to the Hand-Taiyang Small Intestine meridian and the Hand-Shaoyin Heart meridian. These two meridians transform into breast milk upwards and menstrual blood downwards. When a woman's meridians are harmonious, menstruation occurs on schedule. However, if the Chong and Ren vessels are damaged by labor, Qi deficiency fails to control the meridians, causing blood to flow out of time, dripping continuously without cessation, which is termed "Louxia" (dripping bleeding). Consequently, if the five Zang organs are damaged, their respective colors manifest according to the organ. If all five Zang organs are deficient, the color follows the blood downward. Upon diagnosis, the pulse at the Cun Kou position is wiry and large. A wiry pulse indicates reduction (deficiency), and a large pulse indicates a hollow texture (Kou pulse). Reduction leads to cold, and hollowness indicates deficiency. The binding of deficiency and cold results in a革 (Ge/Leather-like) pulse. Women presenting this often experience miscarriage and leaking blood. It is also stated that an urgent, wiry, and large Chi pulse indicates wind pathogen invading the Shaoyin meridian, causing women to leak red blood. If red and white discharge continues without stopping, a small, deficient, and slippery pulse indicates survival, while a large, tight, solid, and rapid pulse indicates death. Additionally, if red and white discharge involves losing several dou of blood daily, an urgent and rapid pulse indicates death, while a slow pulse indicates survival. It is further said that deficient pulses at Cun and Chi indicate bleeding; if the pulse for bleeding is floating, it is untreatable. If menstruation is excessive, with dark purple-black stagnant blood indicating severe Beng (sudden heavy bleeding), accompanied by shallow breathing, extreme cold in the umbilical and abdominal region, and profuse sweating like rain, with a minute and micro Chi pulse, this is due to deficiency and decline of the Chong and Ren vessels, allowing wind-cold pathogens to invade, failing to secure Qi in the chest. Moxibustion can be applied to the Guanyuan acupoint for one hundred moxa cones. (Guanyuan is located three cun directly below the umbilicus.)
Regarding women leaking evil blood, irregular menstruation, or sudden uncontrollable heavy bleeding, often discharging watery fluid-like substances, this is caused by unregulated diet, injury from fatigue, or inherent insufficiency of Heart Qi, leading to Heart Fire attacking Spleen Earth. Symptoms inevitably include lethargy, desire to lie down, exhaustion, weakness, shortness of breath, and急促 (rapid) breathing. The Spleen nourishes the whole body. When Spleen and Stomach are weak and attacked by Pericardium Fire, leaking blood and irregular menstruation occur. Moreover, Spleen and Stomach are the root of Qi, Blood, Yin, and Yang. Treatment should eliminate dampness and heat, suppress the rising of Wind Qi, and overcome dampness. It is said, "When Fire is depressed, release it." Shengyang Chushi Tang (Ascending Yang and Eliminating Dampness Decoction) is appropriate.
Prescription: Dang Gui (Cortex Angelicae Sinensis, wine-washed 5 fen), Huang Qi (Radix Astragali Membranacei, 1 qian 5 fen), Cang Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Lanceae, soaked in rice water 1 qian 5 fen), Chai Hu (Radix Bupleuri, 1 qian 5 fen), Sheng Ma (Rhizoma Cimicifugae, 1 qian), Ben Cao (Rhizoma Ligustici Wallichii, 1 qian), Fang Feng (Radix Saposhnikoviae, 1 qian), Qiang Huo (Rhizoma Notopterygii, 1 qian 5 fen), Du Huo (Radix Angelicae Pubescentis, 5 fen), Man Jing Zi (Fructus Viticis Trifoliae, 7 fen), Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Uralensis, honey-fried 1 qian).
Crush these ingredients, decoct one dose in water, take warm on an empty stomach, and follow with breakfast shortly after to settle the medicine. One dose may cure it. Additionally, moxibustion can be applied to Xuehai (Sea of Blood) acupoint of the Foot-Taiyin Spleen meridian for fourteen cones.
This medication is a temporary measure because wind overcomes dampness, and Stomach Qi sinks, pressing Qi downward to arrest sudden heavy bleeding. Subsequently, multiple doses of Huang Qi, Ren Shen, Dang Gui, and honey-fried Gan Cao should be taken to tonify.
One prescription treats female Beng and Louxia, often caused by Qi sinking.
Prescription: Huang Qi (honey-fried 5 fen), Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng, 5 fen), Bai Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, de-rhizome 1 qian), Dang Gui Shen (Root Cortex Angelicae Sinensis, wine-washed 1 qian), Chuan Xiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong, 5 fen), Bai Shao (Radix Paeoniae Alba, wine-fried 1 qian), Shu Di Huang (Prepared Radix Rehmanniae, 1 qian), Xiang Fu (Rhizoma Cyperi, charred black 1 qian), Pu Huang (Pollen Typhae, fried 5 fen), Di Yu (Radix Sanguisorbae, 5 fen), Sheng Ma (Rhizoma Cimicifugae, 3 fen).

One prescription treats female blood beng (sudden heavy bleeding) with both Qi and Blood deficiency and internal heat.
Prescription: Dang Gui (Cortex Angelicae Sinensis, wine-washed 1 qian), Chuan Xiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong, 7 fen), Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng, 1 qian), Huang Qi (Radix Astragali Membranacei, salt-fried 1 qian), Fang Feng (Radix Saposhnikoviae, 1 qian), Jing Jie (Herba Schizonepetae, 1 qian), Bai Shao (Radix Paeoniae Alba, wine-fried 8 fen), Ai Ye (Folium Artemisiae Argyi, wine-fried), E Jiao (Colla Corii Asini, fried into pearls, 1 qian each), Pu Huang (Pollen Typhae, lightly fried 1 qian), Huang Lian (Rhizoma Coptidis, wine-fried 1 qian 5 fen), Huang Qin (Radix Scutellariae, wine-fried 1 qian), Bai Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, de-rhizome wine-fried), Di Yu (Radix Sanguisorbae, 1 qian each), Sheng Di Huang (Radix Rehmanniae, ginger juice-fried 1 qian 5 fen), Shan Zhi Zi (Gardeniae Fructus, charred black 1 qian), Sheng Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Uralensis, raw 3 fen).
Crush one dose, decoct in water, take warm on an empty stomach. Can also be decocted with Sheng Jiang (Fresh Rhizoma Zingiberis) and Da Zao (Fructus Jujubae).
One prescription treats female blood beng with stabbing pain in the abdomen.
Prescription: Pu Huang (Pollen Typhae, fried), Wu Ling Zhi (Excrement Trogopterori, 1 qian each), Guan Gui (Cortex Cinnamomi, 1 qian each), Xiong Huang (Realgar, 1 qian each), Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Uralensis, 1 qian each).
Grind into fine powder. Take 1 qian each time, mixed with ginger soup.
One prescription treats blood beng where much evil blood has been lost, causing vague mind, trembling, and faintness. Fuyuan Yangrong Tang (Restoring Origin and Nourishing Youth Decoction) is suitable.
Prescription: Yuan Zhi Rou (Medullary Cortex Polygalae, 5 fen), Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng, 1 qian 5 fen), Suan Zao Ren (Ziziphi Spinosae Semen, fried 1 qian), Huang Qi (Radix Astragali Membranacei, honey-fried 1 qian), Jing Jie (Herba Schizonepetae, 8 fen), Bai Shao (Radix Paeoniae Alba, wine-fried 1 qian), Dang Gui Tou (Head of Cortex Angelicae Sinensis, 1 qian), Di Yu (Radix Sanguisorbae, 1 qian), Bai Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, de-rhizome 1 qian), Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Uralensis, 3 fen).
Crush one dose, add one jujube, decoct in water, take warm. If extremely deficient with fever, unconsciousness, and locked jaw, urgently apply vinegar to the face. Also, heat an iron hammer until red-hot, immerse it in a bowl of vinegar, and use the boiling vinegar fumes to熏 (fumigate) the nose of the postpartum woman. This is a general method for postpartum emergencies.
One prescription treats condensed menstruation, black blood clots, blood masses (Jia) in the left hypochondrium, continuous watery diarrhea, undigested food, followed by sudden expulsion of blood clots and simultaneous watery diarrhea. This indicates有形 (tangible) blood loss from both anterior and posterior orifices.
Due to prolonged depletion of essence and blood in the lower jiao, menstruation remains irregular, watery diarrhea occurs 3-4 times daily, heart vexation after eating, reduced appetite, and emaciation. Following the ancient sage's principle of "tonifying Qi when Blood is depleted," first tonify Stomach Qi to assist generating Qi, hence "Yang generates Yin." Sweet herbs are primary because sweetness generates blood, following the principle of Yang generating Yin. Humans value grain Qi as treasure, so regulating Stomach Qi is essential.
Prescription: Yiwei Shengyang Tang (Benefit Stomach and Ascend Yang Decoction).
Huang Qi (Radix Astragali Membranacei, honey-fried 1 qian 5 fen), Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng, 1 qian 2 fen), Gan Cao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Uralensis, honey-fried 1 qian), Chen Pi (Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae, honey-fried 1 qian), Bai Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae, de-rhizome 2 qian), Dang Gui (Cortex Angelicae Sinensis, 1 qian), Chai Hu (Radix Bupleuri, 5 fen), Sheng Ma (Rhizoma Cimicifugae, 5 fen), Shen Qu (Massa Medicata Fermentata, fried 1 qian), Sheng Huang Qin (Radix Scutellariae, raw 2 fen).
Crush one dose, decoct in water. If abdominal pain, add Bai Shao (Radix Paeoniae Alba) 3 fen and a little Gui Rou (Cortex Cinnamomi). If thirsty and dry, add Ge Gen (Radix Puerariae Lobatae) 8 fen.

Combine as one dose, add three slices of Sheng Jiang (Fresh Rhizoma Zingiberis) and one jujube. Take at any time.
One prescription treats women over fifty whose menstruation suddenly becomes excessive. The Neijing states: "Fire governs speed." Do not treat it as a cold disease. Using harsh cold medicines will cause death. Only use Huang Lian Jie Du Tang (Coptis Decoction for Resolving Toxicity) to clear the upper jiao, add Zong Hui (Ash of Palm Fruit) and Lian Ke Hui (Ash of Lotus Pod) to astringe the lower jiao. Then use Si Wu Tang (Four Substances Decoction) to cool blood and harmonize menstruation.
Another prescription for blood beng uses Huai Hua (Flos Sophorae) 1 liang and Bai Cao Shuang (Soot from Hundred Herbs, 5 qian), ground into powder. Take 2 qian each time, quenched in wine with a red-hot scale weight.
Another prescription for wind-heat blood beng uses Jing Jie Sui (Apex Herba Schizonepetae) burnt to charcoal in a lamp flame, ground into powder. Take 3 qian each time, mixed with child's urine.
Another prescription for blood deficiency with internal heat, where blood fails to return to its origin causing beng, uses Gui Xin (Heartwood of Cinnamon) burnt to powder. Take 1-2 qian each time, with rice soup.
Another prescription for blood beng uses Ku Fan (Alumen, 1 qian), made into pills with flour paste, size of a fingertip. Take one pill with good wine.

Another prescription for blood beng uses Yi Zhi Ren (Fructus Alpiniae Oxyphyllae), ground into powder. Take 2 qian each time, mixed with yellow wine quenched by a red-hot scale weight.
Another prescription for blood beng uses 4 liang of lean meat and 2 liang of Bai Cao Shuang (Soot from Hundred Herbs), sifted. Dip and eat, stops immediately.
Another prescription uses dried donkey dung ground coarsely, placed in a jar and burned to produce smoke. Have the woman with beng sit above it to fumigate. It will naturally stop after a long time.
Another prescription uses Yu Xing Cao (Herba Houttuyniae), chopped as one dose, decocted in water, stops immediately.
Another prescription uses one egg white (remove yolk), mix with 3 qian of Yin Zhu (Cinnabar), blend evenly, burn until carbonized but retaining nature. Take with warm wine.
Another prescription uses Can Sha (Excrement Bombyx Batryticatus), cleaned and ground into powder. Take 3 qian each time on an empty stomach with warm wine.
Another prescription uses Wu Ling Zhi (Excrement Trogopterori) burnt black and ground into powder. Take 1 qian each time, mixed with warm wine. Another method: half raw, half fried.
Another prescription uses Xiang Fu Mi (Seed of Rhizoma Cyperi) charred black and ground into powder. Take 3 qian each time on an empty stomach, mixed with hot wine. Rice drink is also acceptable.
A woman with beng and louxia has a yellow or red complexion, feels pain in the waist and below the navel, limbs are fatigued, and she feels vexed and restless. Before her period starts, she experiences alternating chills and fever, and constriction/pain in the two hypochondria. This is caused by Spleen-Stomach deficiency, sinking of Original Qi, and downward pressure of Minister Fire and damp-heat. Use Yiqi Tang (Benefit Qi Decoction) plus Fang Feng (Radix Saposhnikoviae), Bai Shao (Radix Paeoniae Alba), and Chao Huang Bo (Fried Cortex Phellodendri).
A young woman leaking evil blood, irregular menstruation, or continuous sudden heavy bleeding, discharging much watery fluid, or continuous leukorrhea leakage, is all due to unregulated diet, injury from fatigue, or inherent Heart Qi insufficiency leading to Heart Fire attacking Spleen. Symptoms inevitably include lethargy, desire to lie down, exhaustion, weakness, shortness of breath. The Spleen nourishes the whole body. When Spleen and Stomach are weak and attacked by Pericardium Fire, leaking blood and irregular menstruation occur. Moreover, are not Spleen and Stomach the root of Qi, Blood, Yin, and Yang? Treatment should eliminate dampness and heat, suppress rising Wind Qi to overcome dampness. It is said, "When Fire is depressed, release it." Use Yiqi Tang (Benefit Qi Decoction) removing Ren Shen (Radix Ginseng), Bai Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae), and Chen Pi (Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae), adding Cang Zhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Lanceae), Ben Cao (Rhizoma Ligustici Wallichii), Fang Feng (Radix Saposhnikoviae), Qiang Huo (Rhizoma Notopterygii), and Man Jing Zi (Fructus Viticis Trifoliae).
A woman with excessive menstruation has consumed Qi and Blood, and Stomach Qi is insufficient, causing erratic menstruation. Use Shiquan Dabu Tang (Ten Significant Tonification Decoction) plus Xiang Fu (Rhizoma Cyperi), removing Rou Gui (Cortex Cinnamomi) and Fu Zi (Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata).
A woman suffering from beng took too many cold-cooling agents, worsening symptoms, adding abdominal fullness, inability to eat, fever, irritability, and a large, void pulse. This is dryness arising from Qi and Blood deficiency in the Spleen Meridian. Urgently use Bazhen Tang (Eight Treasures Decoction) plus Pao Jiang (Roasted Rhizoma Zingiberis) to warm and tonify. Delay means no rescue. She did not believe, took hemostatic and fire-descending agents, leading to a swarm of deficiency symptoms. Only then did she believe my words, but it was too late to treat.
