Grind the above into fine powder. Use ginger juice (one part) and bamboo sap (nine parts) to pelletize. Take 3 qian every morning, gradually increasing to 4 qian. Also take 2-3 qian in the afternoon.
Patient Ding (Right pulse): Menstruation is delayed, mostly due to deficiency-cold. However, deficiency manifests as weak limbs or slight fever; cold manifests as abdominal pain with a deep, fine pulse. Currently, menstruation arrives late, other aspects are like a normal person, only the four limbs feel sour/aching, and the pulse is soggy and slippery. This indicates phlegm-dampness occupying the Sea of Blood (Xue Hai), preventing the free circulation of Ying (Nutrient) and Wei (Defensive) Qi. The appropriate method is to regulate Qi, resolve phlegm, and dispel dampness. Do not treat the blood directly, but treat the cause of the blood disorder.

Grind the above into fine powder. Water-pelletize. Take 3 qian when half-hungry in the morning, 2 qian when half-hungry in the afternoon. Send down with tangerine peel decoction.
Patient Li (Right pulse): When blood gets hot, it acts recklessly; thus, early menstruation mostly belongs to heat. Specifically, heat forcing blood movement, how could it cause abdominal pain? Only when blood is deficient, it fails to secure, leading to Qi excess. Qi excess leads to stagnation; stagnation causes pain. Qi is the commander of blood; it is suitable to rectify the Qi.

Grind the above into extremely fine powder. Ginger and jujube decoction to pelletize. Take 3 qian every morning, 1.5 qian in the afternoon.
Patient Zhou (Right pulse): "Jing" (Menstruation) means regularity; arriving on time and reliably, hence called Jing. However, the Chong Mai (Penetrating Vessel) must flow freely, and the Heart and Spleen must generate and transform continuously, assisting each other, so there is no fear of obstruction. Currently, menstruation comes every few months. Upon arrival, there is no pain, distension, or scantiness. Only during the early morning when Yang Qi is vigorous, there is slight heat in the abdomen. The pulse is soggy and fine, with the Left Guan position slightly wiry. This indicates insufficient Ying Blood. Although a month has passed, the Chong Mai is not yet full, hence the delay. The plan is to regulate Qi to generate Blood. Decoctions may be hard to persist with or lead to superficial treatment; therefore, use pills for slow regulation. After finishing the pills, observe changes before adjusting medication.

Grind the above into fine powder. Water-pelletize.
Patient Xuan (Right pulse): Menstruation is delayed, abdomen does not hurt, but flow is excessive. Pulse is small, soft, and Left side is choppy. This is likely due to insufficient Qi and Blood, sluggish circulation of Ying and Wei Qi, and powerless control by the Eight Extraordinary Vessels. Plan: Tonify Qi and nourish Blood, combined with ascending Clear Qi.
*Da Shu Di* (Rehmannia Glutinosa Root, 5 liang, steamed), *Fu Chuan Xiong* (Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizome, 8 qian), *Ren Shen Xu* (Ginseng Radicula, 1.3 liang, separately ground and mixed in), *Zhi Mian Huang Qi* (Honey-fried Astragalus Root, 3 liang), *Quan Dang Gui* (Whole Angelica Sinensis Root, 3 liang, stir-fried), *Hang Bai Shao* (White Peony Root, 1.7 liang, wine-fried), *Xi Lu Dang Shen* (Codonopsis Root, 3 liang), *Zhi Sheng Ma* (Bupleurum Root, 7 qian, steamed), *Guang Chen Pi* (Broad-skin Tangerine Peel, 1.2 liang), *Ye Yu Zhu* (Atractylodes Rhizome, 2 liang)
Grind into fine powder. Water-pelletize into mung-bean-sized pills. Take 3 qian in the morning, 1.5 qian in the afternoon.
Patient Sun (Right pulse): When Qi moves, Blood moves; when Qi stagnates, Blood stagnates; when Qi is hot, Blood is hot; when Qi is cold, Blood is cold. Thus, Qi is the commander of Blood. Regulating menstruation prioritizes regulating Qi. Usually, menstruation comes early, flows heavily, with abdominal fullness, Qi stagnation, pain, and distension. This is because Qi stagnation causes congestion; extreme congestion leads to Jue (reversal/collapse). Predecessors often used Zheng Qi San first to rectify Qi. Here, we imitate this intent.

Grind the above herbs into powder. Ginger and jujube decoction to pelletize.
Patient Xu (Left pulse): Those with white complexion often have Qi deficiency; those with lean, pale bodies often have Blood deficiency. As for this patient, who is robust and has lustrous skin, describing symptoms as dizziness with stabbing pain, nasal congestion, rhinorrhea (Bi Yuan), submandibular lymph node enlargement, and a floating sense of emptiness—why? The Yin and Yang of the human body are like a scale, neither can prevail. Dampness generates Phlegm; Phlegm generates Fire. Yang is too vigorous. Vigorous Yang rises excessively causing headache; Phlegm obstructs clear orifices causing nasal congestion; Turbid Fire steaming causes rhinorrhea; Fire attacking collaterals causes lymph node enlargement. Yang appears excessive, thus Yin appears deficient, though it is not truly deficient. One must reduce the excess to accommodate the deficiency. Otherwise, this contradicts the theory that white/pale indicates deficiency. Only those who understand can recognize this.

Grind the above into fine powder. Simmer 3 liang Songluo Tea and 4 liang fresh Loquat Leaf (wrapped in silk, de-haired) together. Strain. Reduce the decoction slightly. Mix with juice from 8 liang fresh Polygonum Multiflorum Root. Combine with powder to form pill sizes of paulownia seeds. Take 2 qian with boiled water about an hour after meals. Do not take at night. Avoid foods that generate fire and dampness.
Patient Qiu (Right pulse): Headache started after recent childbirth. Predecessors distinguished external contraction by whether the brow bone hurt. Now the forehead feels pungent and distended, but the brow bone does not hurt. The pulse is fine and soft. This reveals Blood deficiency with Wind congestion affecting the Yang collaterals, showing just a glimpse. Imitate the method of Zhu Lin Zi's Yu Lu San.

Grind the above into powder and pelletize according to method. Take 2 qian when half-hungry after meals.
Patient Shen (Right pulse): There are many names for sudden Jue (collapse/fainting), all essentially due to reversal of Yin and Yang, abnormal ascending/descending, and blockage of Qi channels. In youth, without emotional trauma, Yang Qi gradually fills, but Yin Qi fails to secure. Wind agitates and Phlegm rises, causing repeated fainting and loss of consciousness.
*Chuan Huang Bo* (Phellodendron Bark, 1.5 liang, salt-water fried), *Bai Jie Zi* (Mustard Seed, 3 qian, stir-fried), *Wei Tian Ma* (Baked Gastrodia Tuber, 1 liang), *Chao Dang Shen* (Stir-fried Codonopsis Root, 2 liang), *Dan Gan Jiang* (Light Dried Ginger, 5 qian), *Zhi Nan Xing* (Prepared Arisaema Rhizome, 5 qian), *Bai Ji Li* (Tribulus Fruit, 1.5 liang, stir-fried, thorns removed), *Zhi Ban Xia* (Prepared Pinellia Rhizome, 1.5 liang), *Chao Yu Zhu* (Stir-fried Atractylodes Rhizome, 1 liang), *Fu Ling* (Poria, 1.5 liang), *Bai Jiang Can* (White Silkworm, 1.5 liang), *Zhi Shi* (Immature Bitter Orange, 1 liang), *Mu Zhu Ling* (Polyporus, 3 liang), *Ci Shi* (Magnetite, 7 qian, water-ground), *Yu Jin* (Curcuma Root, 1 liang), *Mu Li Fen* (Oyster Shell Powder, 1.5 liang), *Guang Ju Hong* (Broad-skin Tangerine Peel, 1 liang)
Grind the above into powder. Chen Guan Zhe decoction to pelletize. Take 2 qian every morning.
Patient Cheng (Left pulse): Blurred vision, not red or swollen. Previous medications, especially Yin-nourishing/stagnant ones, caused discomfort. Others like damp-resolving, wind-dispelling, and phlegm-resolving agents were mild. Pulse is deep, fine, and blurred. The Classic states: Essence and Qi of the five Zang and six Fu organs ascend to the eyes to form vision. It also states: The pupil and dark eye follow Yin. Thus, eye diseases are mostly due to insufficient Yin Essence. However, the Classic also states: Yin and Yang combine to produce clarity. This shows that Yin deficiency with scattered Yang Fire, and Qi stagnation with damp depression obscuring True Fire, both serve as causes of obstruction. Proposed formula follows, for experts to review.

Grind into fine powder. Use 4 liang dried Chinese Yam boiled in wine to make paste for pelletizing. Take 16-17 pills initially, gradually increase to 22-23 pills. Send down with salt water.
Patient Zuo: For Ge Xiao (Diaphragmatic Wasting-Thirst), multiple treatments with Lung-clearing and Yin-nourishing herbs to suppress Ministerial Fire have reduced the major symptoms. However, thirst persists, tongue coating is yellow and rough. Likely because Lung Heat originates from Shaoyin, and turbid Phlegm in the Stomach generates heat upon stagnation. Since Stomach Meridian connects to the Heart, Ministerial Fire moves daily, transferring to the Lung. Plan: Promote Qi transformation, prevent Stomach stagnation. This is treating heat by addressing its mechanism rather than cooling directly.

*Fu Shen* (Poria with Hostwood, 2 liang)
Grind into fine powder. Loquat leaf paste to make paste for pelletizing. Take 3-4 qian per dose.
Patient Wang (Left pulse): Hemorrhage often fills basins. Yet after massive vomiting, everything returns to normal quickly. If discussing Yin deficiency, Fire arises from deficiency; how much more so with massive blood loss? Current Right Guan pulse is slippery, large, and forceful; both Chi pulses feel restrained and quiet. The upward rush of blood is due to Steaming and Scorching of Damp-Heat in the Stomach, forcing eruption. This is self-evident. The reason blood loss is followed by normalcy is because the Yangming channel has abundant Qi and Blood. Currently, left hypochondrium sometimes sounds "huo huo." This is likely Stomach Heat steaming upward, causing rebellious Qi in Lung and Liver.
Regulation strategy: Clear and descend Stomach Earth, calm Lung and Liver. Do not violate the taboo of reinforcing Excess and tonifying Deficiency.

Grind into powder. Stir-fry 3 liang Bamboo Shavings in water to make thick decoction for sprinkling/pelletizing. Take 2 qian per dose, twice daily.
Patient Yu (Left pulse): Bending, straightening, shaking, and moving are images of Wind. Hence, laypeople attribute heart palpitations to Heart Blood deficiency and Liver Fluid consumption. Little do they know, although shaking is a Wind image, Zhang Zhongjing in the Phlegm-Fluid chapter states: Palpitations below the heart indicate Water Qi. This shows palpitations can be Deficient or Excess, depending on clinical differentiation. Pulse is deep and wiry; complexion is dull yellow; no signs of Yang excess. Palpitations occur with exertion or at night. This matches the Golden匮 (Jin Gui) principle of Water retention causing palpitations in damp-prone individuals. Medication should not be static tonification. Warming and regulating Spleen/Stomach is a method of tonifying within draining and draining within tonifying.

Patient Bao (Right pulse): The Classic states: Yang Qi warms the flesh, fills the skin, plumps the interstices, and controls opening/closing. Post-illness, limbs are often cool, suggesting injury to Yang Qi. Yang deficiency fails to warm flesh, causing limb Jue (coldness). The Classic also states: Yang Qi is like Heaven and the Sun; losing its proper place shortens life. Losing its place is so fearful, let alone true Yang deficiency causing limb coldness. Examining the pulse: soggy and stagnant. It is acceptable to say post-illness damp depression prevents Yang Qi from spreading to extremities, but unacceptable to say Yang Qi is declining and failing to reach limbs. One is due to Yang exhaustion, the other to Yang non-circulation. They must be distinguished. Relying solely on "Yang warms flesh" contradicts "losing place shortens life." Understanding the intent reveals the truth. Plan: Tonify Qi and transport Dampness to open pathways for Yang Qi circulation.

Patient Chen (Right pulse): Amenorrhea generally results from insufficient generation/transformation leading to daily withering of Ying Blood, or stagnation preventing free flow causing Ying Blood obstruction. Withering presents as emaciation, weakness, internal heat, and bone-steaming fever. Obstruction presents as alternating chills and fever, cough/rebellion, and abdominal pain. Each disease has its specific onset. It is impossible to have obstruction for years while living normally. After prolonged spotting, Chong and Ren vessels are internally injured. Blood deficiency generates heat; heat consumes blood. Generation balances consumption, hence menstruation stops. There is consumption and generation, so for years, daily life remains normal. Imitate modern sages' method of tonifying Qi and nourishing Blood, planning for gradual improvement.

Zhang Jianhou: After severe illness, followed by hemorrhage, deficiency signs accumulate. Chills or fever, profuse phlegm, panting, phlegm filling bowls, Fire rising from above, frequent insomnia. Previously, severe phlegm-panting was treated with Xiao Qing Long Tang removing Ma Huang and Xin Yi, reducing symptoms by 70%. Acrid-warm herbs did not trigger bleeding. If not for fluid obstruction hindering Lung descent, how could it be so effective? But as soon as phlegm-panting lightened, continuous insomnia occurred. This is due to weak Spleen/Stomach Yang Qi and deficient Ying Fluid, causing Liver Yang to appear relatively excessive. Treatment: Clearing and nourishing will hinder Spleen/Stomach; warming and transforming will hinder Ying Fluid. Liver ascends from Left, Gallbladder descends from Right; Wood and Fire extinguish themselves. But Gallbladder cannot descend alone; it requires Stomach descent for Gallbladder Qi to go down. The only way is to tonify Spleen Earth, descend Stomach Earth, transform turbid phlegm, allowing Lung-Kidney communication, preventing Gallbladder Wood from drifting. This seems like a comprehensive approach. Humble opinion, asking for review.

Patient Yin (Right pulse): Zhong Wan (Middle Jiao) occasionally hurts. Menstruation irregular, leukorrhea dripping like cotton. Severe cases: headache, vertigo, whole-body meridian twitching, joint pain. Liver is Wind-Wood, must obtain...
