论述说：淋证，是由于肾虚和膀胱有热所致。肾气虚弱不能制约水液，就会导致小便频数。膀胱有热，则导致小便排泄涩滞且频数不畅。孕妇的胞宫系于肾脏，若肾间产生虚热而形成淋证，病情严重的会出现心烦意乱，所以称为“子淋”。

Discourse states: Lin syndrome (strangury) arises from Kidney deficiency and Bladder heat. When the Kidney is deficient and unable to control water metabolism, it results in frequent urination. Bladder heat causes urinary flow to be obstructed,涩滞 (astringent/stagnant), and frequent yet incomplete. In pregnant women, the Bao Luo (uterus) is connected to the Kidney; if empty-heat accumulates in the Kidney region leading to Lin syndrome, severe cases manifest as mental restlessness and agitation, hence termed "Zi Lin" (pregnancy strangury).
