1. The Master said: When a woman presents with a calm pulse, but the Yin pulse (referring to the radial artery at the cun position, often associated with the kidney/yin aspect) is slightly weak, and she experiences thirst, inability to eat, without aversion to cold or fever, this is named pregnancy. Guizhi Tang (Cinnamon Twig Decoction) should be administered. (The formula is seen in the section on Diarrhea). According to the method, these symptoms should appear around sixty days of gestation. If improper treatment causes the condition to worsen, and vomiting or diarrhea occurs after one month, such erroneous treatments must be discontinued.
2. A woman who previously suffered from a mass disease (zheng jia, abdominal masses), whose menstruation has stopped for less than three months, yet continues to experience dripping vaginal bleeding, and feels fetal movement above the umbilicus, this indicates that the pre-existing mass is causing harm. If fetal movement is felt at six months of gestation, and menstruation was normal during the first three months, it is a normal fetus. If there was prior dripping bleeding followed by cessation of menstruation for three months, it is a mass disease. The reason the bleeding does not stop is that the mass remains; therefore, the mass should be expelled using Guizhi Fuling Wan (Cinnamon Twig and Poria Pill).

3. In women pregnant for six or seven months, if the pulse is wiry and accompanied by fever, the sensation of fetal distension increases, abdominal pain occurs with aversion to cold, and the lower abdomen feels as if fanned by a wind. This occurs because the Zi Zang (uterus) is open. Therefore, Fuzi Tang (Aconite Decoction) should be used to warm the uterus. (Formula not shown.)
4. The Master said: Women may present with continuous dripping bleeding, continuous bleeding following a miscarriage, or bleeding during pregnancy.
