《产宝》论曰∶产后虚羸者，因产伤损脏腑，劳侵气血。轻者，将养满日即瘥；重者，
日月虽满，气血犹不调和，故患虚羸也。夫产后气血虚竭，脏腑劳伤，若人年齿少盛，能节
慎将养，盈月便得平复。如产后多因血气虚弱，虽逾日月，犹常疲乏。或因饮食不节，调适
失宜，为风冷邪气所侵，搏于气血，流注于五脏六腑，则令肌肤不荣，颜容萎悴，故曰虚羸。

将上述药物研成细末。每次服用五钱药末，配合猪肾一对，去除脂膜。先用水一盏，加入生姜半分、大枣三枚，煎至七分水量，滤去药渣，保留药汁和猪肾，再放入药末五钱，继续煎至四分水量；滤去药渣，在空腹及晚饭前温服。两次药渣合并再次煎煮服用。
《产宝》论述说：产后身体虚弱消瘦的人，是因为分娩损伤了脏腑，耗伤了气血。轻症者，经过充分调养满一个月即可痊愈；重症者，虽然时间已满，但气血仍然不调和，所以患虚弱消瘦之症。产后气血虚竭，脏腑劳伤，如果产妇年轻体盛，能节制并谨慎调养，满月就能恢复健康。如产后多因血气虚弱，即使过了一个月，仍然经常感到疲乏。或因饮食不节制，调理失当，被风冷邪气侵袭，邪气与气血搏结，流注于五脏六腑，导致肌肤失去荣润，容颜萎悴，所以称为虚羸。
治疗产后虚羸，脾胃功能衰弱，四肢无力，完全不想吃东西，心腹胀满。用人参散。

Treats postpartum *rulao* (chronic deficiency syndrome after childbirth due to improper care), manifesting as sallow and emaciated skin, lack of luster in the face; or aversion to cold with high fever, soreness and pain in the four limbs, irritability, and headache. Use Huang Bie Jia Zhu San (Yellow Turtle Shell Decoction).
Huang Bie Jia (Carapax et Plastrum Testudinis, prepared with vinegar, each 1 liang) Guixin (Cortex Cinnamomi) Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis, stir-fried) Sangjisheng (Ramulus Taxilli) Baifuling (Poria) Baishaoyao (Radix Paeoniae Alba) Renshen (Radix Ginseng) Shudihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata) Maimendong (Rhizoma Ophiopogonis, heart removed) Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata, each 0.5 liang) Niuxi (Radix Achyranthis Bidentatae, 3 qian)
Grind the above herbs into a fine powder. For each dose, take 5 qian of the powder, paired with one pair of pig kidneys (*zhushizi*), removing the fatty membrane. First, add one *zhan* of water, half a *fen* of ginger, and three jujubes, decoct until the liquid reduces to seven-tenths. Strain out the dregs, retain the liquid and the kidneys, then add 5 qian of the herbal powder, and continue decocting until the liquid reduces to four-tenths. Strain out the dregs. Take warm on an empty stomach and before evening meal. The two sets of dregs are combined for decoction.
The *Chanbao* (Precious Prescriptions for Childbirth) states: Postpartum weakness and emaciation result from damage to the zang-fu organs during childbirth and depletion of qi and blood. In mild cases, adequate recuperation for a full month leads to recovery; in severe cases, even after a full month, qi and blood remain unharmonized, resulting in weakness and emaciation. When qi and blood are exhausted postpartum and the zang-fu are overtaxed, if the woman is young and vigorous and can observe dietary and lifestyle restrictions during recuperation, she will recover by the end of the first month. However, postpartum qi and blood are often weak; even after passing the customary period, fatigue persists. This may be due to irregular diet and improper care, allowing wind-cold pathogenic factors to invade, contend with qi and blood, and flow into the five zang and six fu organs. This causes the skin and muscles to lose nourishment and the complexion to become withered, hence termed "xu lei" (deficiency emaciation).
Treats postpartum deficiency emaciation, weakness of the spleen and stomach, powerless four limbs, complete loss of appetite, and abdominal distension and fullness. Use Renshen San (Ginseng Powder).
Huangqi (Radix Astragali) Renshen (Radix Ginseng) Caoguoren (Semen Tsaoko) Houpo (Cortex Magnoliae Officinalis) Fuzi (Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata, each 1 liang) Baizhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae) Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis) Baifuling (Poria) Muxiang (Radix Aucklandiae) Chuanxiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong) Guixin (Cortex Cinnamomi) Gancao (Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata, each 0.5 liang) Chenpi (Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae) Liangjiang (Rhizoma Alpiniae Officinarum) Helilepi (Endocarpus Terminaliae Chebulae, each 3 qian)
Cut the herbs into small pieces. For each dose, take 4 qian. Add one *zhan* of water, three slices of ginger, and one jujube, decoct until the liquid reduces to six-tenths. Strain out the dregs. Take warm at any time.
Treats postpartum deficiency emaciation, shortness of breath, and inability to eat. Use Shu Gan Dihuang Tang (Prepared Rehmannia Root Decoction).
Shu Gan Dihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, 2 liang) Renshen (Radix Ginseng) Bei Wuweizi (Fructus Schisandrae Chinensis) Shihu (Caulis Dendrobii) Baifuling (Poria) Baizhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae) Luanjiao (Colla Cornus Cervi) Fuzi (Radix Aconiti Lateralis Preparata, each 1 liang) Guixin (Cortex Cinnamomi) Danggui (Radix Angelicae Sinensis) Chuanxiong (Rhizoma Chuanxiong) Zelan Ye (Herba Lycopi) Huangqi (Radix Astragali) Xuduan (Radix Dipsaci, each 3 qian)
Cut the herbs into small pieces. For each dose, take 4 qian. Decoct with ginger and jujube according to the previous method.
