可轻用，其它亦宜审订而用之。仍味薛氏之说，而参之以杂病诸方法，庶无误也。
〔大〕妊娠期间大小便不通，是由脏腑有热所致。如果大肠有热，则大便不通；小肠有热，则小便不利；大小肠都有热，则大小便都不通，应当进一步推究病因并据此用药。
〔薛〕上述证候如果是大肠血燥，使用四物汤（Siwu Tang, Four Substance Decoction）加黄芩、桃仁。如果是大肠气滞，使用紫苏饮（Zisu Yin, Perilla Decoction）加杏仁、黄芩。如果是肠胃气虚，使用六君子汤（Liujunzi Tang, Six Gentlemen Decoction）加紫苏、杏仁。如果是肝脾蕴热，使用龙胆泻肝汤（Longdan Xiegan Tang, Gentian Liver-Draining Decoction）。如果是心肝虚热，使用加味逍遥散（Jiawei Xiaoyao San, Modified Free and Easy Wanderer Powder）加车前子。亚卿李蒲汀的侧室，妊娠期间大小便不利，有人用降火理气的药剂，导致元气反而虚弱，肝脉弦急，脾脉迟滞，观察其面色，青黄无光泽。我说：这是由郁怒引起的，以加味归脾汤（Jiawei Guipi Tang, Modified Gui Pi Decoction）为主，佐以加味逍遥散而痊愈。主政王天成的妻子，妊娠痢疾，病愈后二便不通，其家世代行医，自行使用清热药剂无效。我诊察她的脉象浮大而涩，这是气血虚弱的表现。早晨服用八珍汤（Bazhen Tang, Eight Treasures Decoction）加桃仁、杏仁，晚上服用加味逍遥散加车前子而病愈。
《短剧》治疗妊娠子淋（妊娠期小便淋沥涩痛），大小便都不利，气急，已经服用猪苓散（Zhuling San, Polyporus Powder）未见效，适宜服用甘遂散（Gansui San, Kansui Powder）攻下。
甘遂散方
用泰山赤皮甘遂（二两）
将以上一味药研为末，用白蜜二合调和，每次服如豆大一粒，感到心下烦闷，轻微腹泻即可，每日服一次。泻下之后，再服用猪苓散。如果未泻下，每日服两次，逐渐增加至半钱，以轻微通利为度。（《经心录》相同。此药过于峻猛，不可轻易使用。）
猪苓散 治疗妊娠小便涩痛，兼治胎水（妊娠水肿）。
猪苓（五两，去皮） 研为末，用开水调服方寸匕，逐渐增至二匕，每日三次，夜间两次。如果未见效，适宜改用攻下药，服用前面的药物。
葵子汤 （《古今录验》中的两个方剂。）治疗妊娠患病六七天以上，邪热入脏，大小便不利，安胎除热。
冬葵子（二升） 滑石（四两，捣碎）
以上用水五升，煮取一升，去渣尽服，不久就会泻下，病即痊愈。

《补遗》局方八正散 治疗妊妇心经蕴热，脏腑秘结，大肠不通，小便赤涩癃闭。（见杂病淋。）以上陈良甫氏所录诸方，今并存之。加入甘遂、朴硝，非到实证危重，不得已而为之，不可轻用，其他也宜审慎订正后使用。仍品味薛氏的说法，并参考杂病各种方法，或许没有错误了。
[Da] Incontinence or retention of urine and stool during pregnancy is caused by heat in the Zang-Fu organs. If there is heat in the Large Intestine, stool will be retained; if there is heat in the Small Intestine, urination will be difficult; if there is heat in both the Large and Small Intestines, both urine and stool will be retained. One should further investigate the etiology and medicate accordingly.
[Xue] For the aforementioned conditions: if it is dryness of blood in the Large Intestine, use Siwu Tang (Four Substance Decoction) with added Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix) and Taoren (Persicamidis Semen). If it is Qi stagnation in the Large Intestine, use Zisu Yin (Perilla Decoction) with added Xingren (Armeniacae Semen Amarum) and Huangqin. If it is Qi deficiency in the Stomach and Intestines, use Liujunzi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction) with added Zisu (Perillae Folium) and Xingren. If it is heat accumulation in the Liver and Spleen, use Longdan Xiegan Tang (Gentian Liver-Draining Decoction). If it is deficient heat in the Heart and Liver, use Jiawei Xiaoyao San (Modified Free and Easy Wanderer Powder) with added Cheqianzi (Plantaginis Semen). The concubine of Vice Minister Li Puting suffered from difficulty in urination and defecation during pregnancy. After using herbs to clear fire and regulate Qi, her Yuan Qi became deficient. Her Liver pulse was wiry and tense, and her Spleen pulse was slow and sluggish. Observing her complexion, it was greenish-yellow and lusterless. I said: "This is caused by depression and anger." I used Jiawei Guipi Tang (Modified Gui Pi Decoction) as the main prescription, assisted by Jiawei Xiaoyao San, and she recovered. The wife of Director Wang Tiancheng suffered from dysentery during pregnancy. After recovery, she experienced retention of urine and stool. Her family had been physicians for generations, but their self-administered heat-clearing prescriptions were ineffective. I palpated her pulse as floating, large, and choppy, indicating deficiency of Qi and Blood. In the morning, she took Bazhen Tang (Eight Treasures Decoction) with added Taoren and Xingren; in the evening, she took Jiawei Xiaoyao San with added Cheqianzi, and she recovered.
*Duanju* treats Zi Lin (dysuria during pregnancy) where both urine and stool are difficult, accompanied by shortness of breath. If Zhuling San (Polyporus Powder) has failed, Gansui San (Kansui Powder) should be administered to purge.
Formula for Gansui San
Use Tianshan Chipi Gansui (2 liang).
Grind the above single herb into powder. Mix with 2 he of white honey and take one pill-sized grain (size of a bean). If one feels irritability in the epigastrium and experiences slight purging, take once daily. After purging, resume taking Zhuling San. If no purging occurs, take twice daily, gradually increasing to half qian, stopping when mild laxation is achieved. (Same as *Jingxin Lu*. This medicine is too harsh and should not be used lightly.)
Zhuling San treats painful and difficult urination during pregnancy and also addresses Tai Shui (pregnancy edema/fluid retention).
Zhuling (5 liang, peeled). Grind into powder. Take with warm water, starting with one fangcun bi (a measure approx. 1 cubic inch), gradually increasing to two bi. Take three times daily and twice at night. If ineffective, switch to purgatives and take the previous medicines.

Danggui San treats various pre-partum disorders. It addresses cases where anger causes Qi to rush to the Zi Zang (uterus) or Chong and Ren meridians, leading to abdominal urgency and distension, intermittent pain in the waist and abdomen, loss of appetite, edema of the four limbs, shortness of breath with wheezing, sudden difficulty in defecation, sudden obstruction of urination, and sudden swelling of the birth canal.

Adding Gansui and Puxiao is reserved only for severe excess conditions where no other option exists; do not use lightly. Other formulas should also be carefully reviewed before use. Following Master Xue's comments and referencing methods for miscellaneous diseases ensures accuracy.
