人参泽兰叶汤
产后出现口鼻发黑并伴有鼻出血，这是胃气竭绝、肺气败坏的表现，药物难以医治。方用人参、泽兰叶、牡丹皮、牛膝、生地黄、熟地黄煎汤，加入大量童便冲服，以此希望获得万分之一的生机。
【注】产后恶露不下，虚火挟带血液上行，溢出鼻窍，不循经脉运行，导致血色变黑见于口鼻，这是因为热极反而兼有水化之象，所以称为胃绝肺败，药物难以医治。或者使用人参泽兰叶汤，即由人参、泽兰叶、丹皮、牛膝、生地、熟地煎汤，多冲入童便饮用，偶尔有获救的，但这只是希冀于万一的情况罢了。
产后痢疾名为产子痢，多因饮食生冷或暑寒邪气干扰所致。里急后重属于有余（实证）的病证；日久滑脱不禁属于不足（虚证）。大便色赤黄稠粘的多为热证；清彻如鸭粪溏泄的定属寒证。治疗上需根据寒热虚实进行温清调补涩等调理，对虚实、新久病程要详细参详。

Ren Shen Ze Lan Ye Tang (Ginseng and Eupatorium Decoction)
Postpartum epistaxis accompanied by blackening of the mouth and nose indicates exhaustion of Stomach Qi and failure of Lung Qi, a condition difficult to treat with medicine. The formula consists of Ren Shen (Ginseng), Ze Lan Ye (Eupatorium Leaf), Dan Pi (Moutan Cortex), Niu Xi (Achyranthes Root), Sheng Di Huang (Rehmannia Root, raw), and Shu Di Huang (Rehmannia Root, prepared). It is decocted in water and taken with a large amount of Tong Bian (Child's Urine), hoping for a slim chance of survival.
[Annotation] When Lochia (postpartum discharge) fails to descend after childbirth, Deficient Fire carries blood upward, causing it to overflow from the nasal cavity without following the meridians. The blood turns black and appears at the mouth and nose. This occurs because extreme Heat transforms into Water-like symptoms; thus, it is termed "Stomach Exhaustion and Lung Failure," making it difficult to treat with medicine. Alternatively, Ren Shen Ze Lan Ye Tang may be used, composed of Ren Shen (Ginseng), Ze Lan Ye (Eupatorium Leaf), Dan Pi (Moutan Cortex), Niu Xi (Achyranthes Root), Sheng Di Huang (Rehmannia Root, raw), and Shu Di Huang (Rehmannia Root, prepared). It is decocted and taken with abundant Tong Bian (Child's Urine). Occasionally, patients may survive, but this is merely a hope for one in ten thousand chances.
Chan Zi Li (Postpartum Dysentery)
Postpartum dysentery is named Chan Zi Li (Postpartum Dysentery). It is often caused by dietary irregularities, consumption of cold/raw foods, or exposure to summer-heat and cold due to improper living habits. Tenesmus (Li Ji Hou Zhong) belongs to Excess syndromes; prolonged slippage and incontinence belong to Deficiency syndromes. Stool that is red-yellow, thick, and sticky is mostly due to Heat; clear, watery stool resembling duck feces definitely belongs to Cold. Treatment involves regulating, tonifying, and astringing according to Cold, Heat, Excess, and Deficiency. One must carefully analyze the Excess/Deficiency and the newness or chronicity of the disease.
[Annotation] Postpartum dysentery is called Chan Zi Li (Postpartum Dysentery). It is mostly caused by dietary imbalance, greed for cold/raw foods, or careless daily life leading to exposure to cold or summer-heat. If there is abdominal pain and tenesmus, it belongs to an Excess syndrome; if it persists for a long time with cold deficiency and slippage, it belongs to a Deficiency syndrome. Dysentery that is yellow-red, thick, and sticky mostly belongs to Heat; clear, thin, and transparent stool like duck feces belongs to Cold. The treatment method: Clear the Heat, warm the Cold, harmonize mixed Cold and Heat, tonify Deficiency, and drain Excess. Careful analysis is required regarding Excess/Deficiency and whether the condition is new or chronic.
