《产宝》云∶产后虚羸者，皆由产后亏损血气所致，须当慎起居，节饮食，六淫七情，
调养百日，庶保无疾。若中年及难产者，毋论日期，必须调养平复，方可涉喧，否则气
血复伤，虚羸之证作矣。
〔薛〕前证产伤气血者，用八珍汤。饮食伤胃者，用四君子汤。停食伤脾者，用六
君子汤。劳伤元气者，用补中益气汤。若嗳气觉有药味者，此药复伤胃也。但用四君子
汤徐徐少饮，以调脾胃。若胃气一健，血气自生，诸证自愈矣。

〔冷劳〕
〔大〕夫产则血气劳伤，脏腑虚弱，而风冷客之，冷搏于血气，血气不能温于肌肤，
使人虚乏疲顿，致羸损不平复，若久不平复，风冷入于子脏，则胞脏冷，使人无子。

《产宝》记载：产后出现身体虚弱消瘦的症状，都是由产后气血亏损所致。应当谨慎安排日常生活起居，节制饮食，避免六淫（风、寒、暑、湿、燥、火六种外感病邪）和七情（喜、怒、忧、思、悲、恐、惊七种情志变化）的干扰，调养一百天，这样才能保证不生病。如果是中年产妇或难产者，不论经过多少日子，必须等到身体完全调养恢复平静后，才可以接触喧闹的环境，否则气血会再次受伤，导致虚羸的症状发作。
〔薛己〕上述症状若因产伤导致气血亏损，使用八珍汤。若因饮食不当损伤胃气，使用四君子汤。若因食物停滞损伤脾脏，使用六君子汤。若因劳累损伤元气，使用补中益气汤。如果出现打嗝且觉得有药味的情况，这是药物再次损伤了胃气。此时只需用四君子汤慢慢少量饮用，以调理脾胃。只要胃气强健，气血自然生成，各种症状自然痊愈。

〔冷劳〕
〔陈〕大夫说：生产会导致血气劳伤，脏腑虚弱，风冷之邪乘虚而入，冷邪搏结于血气之中，血气不能温煦肌肤，使人虚乏疲顿，导致身体消瘦损耗无法恢复。如果长久不能恢复，风冷进入子宫，则胞宫寒冷，使人不孕。

*Chanbao* states: Postpartum emaciation and debility are all caused by the depletion of Qi and Blood after childbirth. One must be cautious in daily life and diet, avoid the Six Evils (Wind, Cold, Summer-heat, Dampness, Dryness, Fire) and Seven Emotions (Joy, Anger, Worry, Pensiveness, Sorrow, Fear, Fright), and maintain recuperation for one hundred days to ensure freedom from disease. For women of middle age or those who have experienced difficult labor, regardless of the time elapsed, they must wait until their constitution is fully restored and balanced before exposing themselves to noisy environments; otherwise, Qi and Blood will be injured again, leading to the onset of postpartum emaciation and debility.
[Xue Ji] For the aforementioned conditions caused by injury to Qi and Blood during childbirth, use Bazen Tang (Eight Treasure Decoction). If dietary indiscretion injures Stomach Qi, use Sijunzi Tang (Four Gentlemen Decoction). If food stagnation injures the Spleen, use Liujunzi Tang (Six Gentlemen Decoction). If overwork injures Yuan Qi (Original Qi), use Buzhong Yiqi Tang (Tonify the Middle and Augment the Qi Decoction). If belching occurs with a medicinal taste, this indicates that the medicine has re-injured the Stomach. In such cases, only Sipinzi Tang should be used, taken slowly and in small amounts to regulate the Spleen and Stomach. Once Stomach Qi becomes robust, Qi and Blood will naturally generate, and all symptoms will heal spontaneously.
[Zhu Danxi] Postpartum Tonification Formula:
Renshen (Ginseng Radix), Baizhu (Atractylodis Rhizoma) (each 1 qian), Huangqi (Astragali Radix), Danggui Shenyi (Angelicae Sinensis Radix body and tail) (each 5 fen), Chuanxiong (Ligustici Chuanxiong Rhizoma) (0.5 liang), Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) (3 fen).
Decoct with water and take orally. If there are signs of Cold, add Ganjiang (Zingiberis Rhizoma) 3 fen and Fuling (Poria) 1 qian.
Baoming Sanyuan Tang: Treats prolonged postpartum deficiency consumption with floating and large pulse. It is a combination of Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction) and Siwu Tang (Four Substance Decoction).
For prolonged postpartum deficiency consumption where acupuncture is ineffective, use Sanhe San (Three Harmonies Powder). This is a harmonization of Sijunzi Tang, Siwu Tang, and Xiaochaihu Tang.
Baizhu, Chuan Danggui, Shaoyao, Huangqi, Fuling, Shudihuang (Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata) (each 1 liang), Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix), Renshen (each 1.5 liang), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix), Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (each 6 qian), Chuanxiong (1 liang).

Boil these three ingredients in the mutton broth to obtain 2.5 sheng, divide into four doses. If lochia remains incomplete, add Guizhi (Cinnamomi Ramulus) 3 liang.

If there is Heat, add Shengdihuang汁 (Fresh Rehmanniae Juice) 2 he.
*Bao Ming Ji* treats postpartum deficiency consumption with inability to eat. Shiquan San (Ten Complete Powder), which is Shiquan Dabu Tang (Great Tonifying Decoction of Ten Ingredients).

Decoct with water containing Jiang (Ginger) and Zao (Jujube) and take orally.
Danggui Jianzhong Tang (see Abdominal Pain section above).

[Cold Lao]
[Chen] says: Childbirth causes labor and injury to Qi and Blood, leading to weakness of the Zang-Fu organs. Wind-Cold pathogens invade externally. Cold combats with Qi and Blood, preventing them from warming the skin and muscles, causing emptiness, fatigue, and exhaustion, resulting in emaciation and failure to recover. If recovery is delayed, Wind-Cold enters the Zi Zang (Uterus), causing coldness of the Bao Zang (Womb), leading to infertility.
[Xue Ji] For the aforementioned conditions, if Qi and Blood are deficient, use Bazen Tang. If Qi and Blood are deficient and cold, use Shiquan Dabu Tang. If Stomach Qi is deficient, use Buzhong Yiqi Tang. If Spleen Qi is deficient, use Liujunzi Tang. If Mingmen Fire is declining, use Bawei Wan (Eight-Ingredient Pill). If Liver and Spleen Blood are deficient, use Jia Wei Xiaoyao San (Modified Free and Easy Wanderer Powder). If Liver and Spleen are constrained by anger, use Jia Wei Guipi Tang (Modified Restore the Spleen Decoction).
