上为末，炼蜜丸，如梧桐子大。每服三十丸，食前米饮下。
取药末五分，每次服用三钱，加水一盏，煎煮至七分，然后服用。产后因伤风引起的头痛，加入等量的石膏，甘草用量减半。如果是产后虚劳日久，且脉象浮而疾速的，适宜使用柴胡四物汤，这是本方与小柴胡汤合用的方剂。如果产后出现各种症状，可根据六经辨证，将四物汤与张仲景的药物各半配合使用，服用效果很好。产后身体极度虚弱，发热烦闷，加入生地黄。产后腹胀，加入枳壳、肉桂。产后寒热往来（忽冷忽热），加入柴胡、麦门冬。产后败血攻心，加入地骨皮、芍药。产后潮热，加入白术、北柴胡、甘草、牡丹皮、地骨皮。产后眼部疾病，加入北细辛、羌活、荆芥、菊花、甘草、木贼、石决明、草决明。产后浮肿，气急腹大，喉中有如水鸡叫声，加入牡丹皮、荆芥、白术、桑白皮、赤小豆、大腹皮、杏仁、半夏、马兜铃、生姜、葱白、薄荷。产后失音不语，加入诃子、人参、沙蜜、百药煎。产后心神烦乱，加入茯神、远志。胎前、产后或痢疾后感受风邪，加入乳香、龙骨、茱萸、木香、肉桂、苍术、牡丹皮、白薇、人参、甘草、泽兰、大椒、[缺失药材]，炼蜜为丸，用木瓜酒送服。（为何治疗痢疾风证要用龙骨？诸热药也不完善。）
简易当归散：治疗月经周期不规律，或者三四个月不来，或者一个月来两次，或者腰腿疼痛，不按正常时间而行。（此方不用地黄，而是补肝脾、清金制水，是四物汤的一种变化格局。由此类推，应变无穷。）
药材：当归、川芎、白芍药（炒）、黄芩（炒，各一两）；白术、山茱萸肉（各一两半）。
以上药物研成细末。空腹时用温酒调服二钱，每日三次。或者切碎，每次服用七钱，加生姜用水煎服；如果体质偏冷，去掉黄芩，加入肉桂。另一版本含有熟地黄。
增损四物汤：治疗月经不调，心腹疼痛，补血温经驻颜。（又是另一种变化，白术虽然性温，但丹皮、地骨皮却能清除肌骨之热，所以“温”字恐怕有误。）
药材：当归、川芎、芍药（炒）、熟地黄、白术、牡丹皮（各一钱半）；地骨皮（一钱）。
以上药物切碎。作为一服的量，用水两钟，煎煮至一钟，饭前服用。
大温经汤：治疗冲任虚损，月经不调，或者经量过多不止，或者过期不来，或者崩漏出血过多，或者妊娠期间瘀血停留，小腹急痛，五心烦热，这些病症都适用。（此为温补药剂，体内有寒气者适宜使用。）（既然叫温经汤，为什么又治疗各种热证呢？请详细说明。不如不写这本书，大概是有其用意吧。）
药材：当归（去芦头）、川芎、人参、阿胶（碎炒）、肉桂（去粗皮）、白芍药（炒）、吴茱萸（汤泡）、牡丹皮、甘草（炙，各一钱）；麦门冬（去心，二钱）；半夏（生姜汤泡七次，二钱半）。
以上切碎。作为一服的量，加生姜五片，用水煎煮，饭前稍热时服用。
严氏抑气散：治疗妇女气盛于血，变生各种病症，头晕胸满。（这是铁翁先生的交感丹法，只有真气真正有余时才可使用。）
药材：香附子（四两）、陈皮（二两）、茯神（去木）、甘草。
以上研成粉末。每次服用二钱，饭前用沸水调服。
四制香附丸：治疗妇女月经不调。
药材：香附子（擦去皮一斤，分作四分，好酒浸一分，盐水浸一分，童便浸一分，醋浸一分，各浸泡三天后焙干）。
以上研成细末，用醋糊制作丸药，如梧桐子大小。每次服用七十丸，空腹饭前用盐酒送服。（香附子是血中的气药，能开郁行气，血自然调和，什么病不能治愈，妇女适宜常服。）
十味香附丸：治疗妇女月经不调。（绝妙的良方。）
药材：香附（四制，一斤）、当归、川芎、白芍药（炒）、熟地黄（各四两）；白术、泽兰叶、陈皮（各二两）；黄柏（盐水炒）、甘草（炙，各一两）。

药材：香附子（童便浸泡一夜，再用醋煮，晒干炒，四两）、当归（酒洗）、芍药（酒炒）、川芎（酒洗）、生地黄（酒洗）、陈皮（去白，各一两）；白术（二两）；黄芩（酒炒，一两五钱）；小茴香（炒，五钱）。
以上研成粉末，用醋糊制作丸药，如桐子大小。空腹用酒送服八九十丸。如果有热证，加入地骨皮、软柴胡（酒浸各一两）。

药材：香附（四制，十二两）、阿胶（碎炒）、艾叶、当归（酒洗）、川芎、芍药（炒）、熟地黄（酒洗，各二两）。
以上研成粉末，用一个陈年的石榴，连皮捣碎，煎水打糊制作丸药，如桐子大小。每次服用一百丸，空腹用淡醋汤送服。（前方有玄胡索，此方有阿胶，前方艾叶多此方艾叶少，有运行的妙处。陈石榴酸涩，大概是固经的意思。）
人参养血丸：治疗女人先天禀赋素弱，血气虚损。常服可补冲任，调月经，暖下元，生血气。
药材：熟地黄（五两）、乌梅肉（三两）、当归（二两）、人参、川芎、赤芍药、蒲黄（炒，各一两）。
以上研成细末，炼蜜制作丸药，如梧桐子大小。每次服用八十丸，温酒或米饮任意送服。（禀赋弱者，是先天之气弱。血生于气，气生于下焦，所以用熟地黄为君药，人参为辅佐，以生下焦之气，使阴气旺盛而生血；臣药用乌梅以生津液而收敛血液入肝；既然已经生成并收敛了，如果不加以流通，则血液凝滞不通，所以用川芎、当归为使药引导运行；如果有瘀血，用赤芍药破除它；如果有溃漏，用炒蒲黄涩止它，这样既能生血而不壅滞，止血而不闭塞，降中有升，温而不热。仔细玩味各药分量多少，可知立方的妙用。）
当归地黄丸：治疗妇人血气不和，月经不匀，腰腿疼痛。
药材：当归、川芎、白芍药、熟地黄（各半两）；牡丹皮、玄胡索（各二钱半）；人参、黄芪（各一钱二分半）。

Take five fen of the powdered medicine, take three qian per dose, add one zhan of water, decoct until seven tenths remain, and then take. For postpartum headache caused by wind invasion, add equal parts of Shigao (Gypsum Fibrosum) and reduce Gancao (Licorice Root) by half. If it is chronic deficiency fatigue after childbirth with a floating and rapid pulse, Chaihu Siwu Tang (Bupleurum Four Substances Decoction) is suitable; this is a combination of the present formula and Xiaochaihu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction). If various symptoms occur after childbirth, treat according to the Six Channels (Liu Jing), combining Siwu Tang (Four Substances Decoction) with formulas from Zhang Zhongjing in equal proportions; taking them is very effective. For extreme weakness after childbirth with fever and restlessness, add Shengdihuang (Rehmannia Root). For postpartum abdominal distension, add Zhike (Aurantii Fructus) and Rougui (Cinnamon Bark). For postpartum alternating chills and fever, add Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix) and Maimendong (Ophiopogonis Radix). For postpartum敗血 (stagnant blood) attacking the heart, add Digupi (Lycii Cortex) and Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix). For postpartum tidal fever, add Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Beichaihu (Bupleuri Radix), Gancao (Licorice Root), Mudanpi (Moutan Cortex), and Digupi (Lycii Cortex).

(Why use Longgu for treating dysentery wind? The hot herbs are also not ideal.)
Jianyi Danggui San (Simple Angelica Powder): Treats irregular menstrual cycles, such as amenorrhea for three or four months, menstruation occurring twice a month, or lower back and leg pain, occurring at irregular times. (This formula does not use Dihuang but tonifies the Liver and Spleen, clears Metal to control Water, representing a variation of Siwu Tang. From this, one can infer infinite adaptability.)
Herbs: Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Alba, stir-fried), Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix, stir-fried, each 1 liang); Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Shanzhuyu (Corni Fructus, each 1.5 liang).
Grind the above into fine powder. Take 2 qian mixed with warm wine on an empty stomach, three times daily. Alternatively, cut into pieces, take 7 qian per dose, add fresh ginger, and decoct with water; if the constitution is cold, remove Huangqin and add Rougui (Cinnamon Bark). Another version includes Shudihuang (Prepared Rehmannia Root).
Zengsun Siwu Tang (Modified Four Substances Decoction): Treats irregular menstruation, epigastric and abdominal pain, nourishes blood, warms meridians, and preserves youth. (Another variation; although Baizhu is warm, Mudanpi and Digupi clear heat from muscles and bones, so the character "warm" may be erroneous.)
Herbs: Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix, stir-fried), Shudihuang (Prepared Rehmannia Root), Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Mudanpi (Moutan Cortex, each 1.5 qian); Digupi (Lycii Cortex, 1 qian).
Cut the above into pieces. As one dose, add two zhong of water, decoct until one zhong remains, and take before meals.

(This is a warming agent, suitable for those with internal cold.) (If it is called Meridian-Warming Decoction, why does it treat various heat syndromes? Please explain in detail. It might be better not to write the book, assuming there is a specific purpose.)
Herbs: Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix, remove radicle), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Ejiao (Colla Corii Asini, crushed and stir-fried), Rougui (Cinnamon Bark, remove rough bark), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix, stir-fried), Wuzhuyu (Evodiae Fructus, soak in boiling water), Mudanpi (Moutan Cortex), Gancao (Licorice Root, honey-fried, each 1 qian); Maimendong (Ophiopogonis Radix, remove heart, 2 qian); Banxia (Pinelliae Rhizoma, soak in ginger juice seven times, 2.5 qian).

Yan Shi Yi Qi San (Dr. Yan's Qi-Suppressing Powder): Treats women where qi exceeds blood, generating various symptoms such as dizziness and chest fullness. (This is Master Tie Weng's Jiaogan Dan method; it should only be used when true qi is truly excessive.)
Herbs: Xiangfu (Cyperi Rhizoma, 4 liang), Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, 2 liang), Fushen (Poria Cum Ramo Pini, remove wood), Gancao (Licorice Root).
Grind the above into powder. Take 2 qian per dose, mix with boiling water before meals.

Herbs: Xiangfu (Cyperi Rhizoma, rub off skin, 1 jin, divide into four parts: soak one part in good wine, one part in salt water, one part in child's urine, one part in vinegar, each for three days, then dry by baking).
Grind the above into fine powder, make pills with vinegar paste, size of wu zi (walnut seeds). Take 70 pills per dose, swallow with salt wine on an empty stomach before meals. (Xiangfu is the qi herb within blood herbs; it opens stagnation and moves qi, so blood naturally regulates. What disease cannot be cured? Women should take it regularly.)
Shi Wei Xiangfu Wan (Ten-Ingredient Cyperi Pill): Treats irregular menstruation in women. (An excellent prescription.)
Herbs: Xiangfu (Four-processed, 1 jin), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix, stir-fried), Shudihuang (Prepared Rehmannia Root, each 4 liang); Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Zelan Ye (Lygodii Folium), Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, each 2 liang); Huangbai (Phellodendri Cortex, salt-water stir-fried), Gancao (Licorice Root, honey-fried, each 1 liang).
Grind the above into powder, make pills with vinegar paste, size of wu zi. Take 70 pills per dose, swallow with salt water on an empty stomach.
Jiu Wei Xiangfu Wan (Nine-Ingredient Cyperi Pill): Suitable for various ailments in women.
Herbs: Xiangfu (Cyperi Rhizoma, soak in child's urine overnight, then boil in vinegar, dry, roast, 4 liang), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix, wash with wine), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix, stir-fry with wine), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma, wash with wine), Shengdihuang (Rehmannia Root, wash with wine), Chenpi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, remove white pith, each 1 liang); Baizhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, 2 liang); Huangqin (Scutellariae Radix, stir-fry with wine, 1.5 liang); Xiaohuixiang (Foeniculi Fructus, stir-fry, 5 qian).
Grind the above into powder, make pills with vinegar paste, size of tong zi. Swallow 80-90 pills with wine on an empty stomach. If there is heat, add Digupi (Lycii Cortex) and Ruan Chaihu (Bupleuri Radix, soaked in wine, each 1 liang).
Ai Fu Nuan Gong Wan (Mugwort and Cyperi Uterus-Warming Pill): Treats irregular menstruation in women, frequent lower abdominal pain, red and white leukorrhea, and uterine cold.
Herbs: Xiangfu (Four-processed, 1 jin), Aye (Artemisiae Argyi Folium, soak in vinegar and stir-fry, 4 liang), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix, stir-fry with wine), Shengdihuang (Rehmannia Root, stir-fry with ginger juice, each 1 liang); Yanhusuo (Corydalis Rhizoma, stir-fry, 2 liang); Gancao (Licorice Root, raw, 8 qian).
Grind the above into fine powder, make pills with vinegar paste, size of tong zi. Take 70-80 pills per dose, swallow with rice soup or wine as desired.
Baizi Guifu Wan (Hundred-Seed Return-to-Cyperi Pill): Regulates menstruation and nourishes blood, calms the fetus and smooths qi. Treats conditions before and after childbirth, as well as irregular menstruation with excess or deficiency, curing all syndromes; long-term use promotes pregnancy.
Herbs: Xiangfu (Four-processed, 12 liang), Ejiao (Colla Corii Asini, crushed and stir-fried), Aye (Artemisiae Argyi Folium), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix, wash with wine), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix, stir-fry), Shudihuang (Prepared Rehmannia Root, wash with wine, each 2 liang).
Grind the above into powder. Use one aged pomegranate, crush with peel, decoct in water to make paste for pills, size of tong zi. Take 100 pills per dose, swallow with light vinegar water on an empty stomach. (The previous formula contains Yanhusuo, this one contains Ejiao; the previous has more mugwort, this one less, having the妙处 (wonderful effect) of movement. Aged pomegranate is sour and astringent, likely intended to consolidate the menses.)
Renshen Yangxue Wan (Ginseng Blood-Nourishing Pill): Treats women with weak congenital constitution and deficiency of blood and qi. Regular use tonifies the Chong and Ren vessels, regulates menstruation, warms the lower yuan, and generates blood and qi.
Herbs: Shudihuang (Prepared Rehmannia Root, 5 liang), Wumei Rou (Pruni Mume Carnositas, 3 liang), Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix, 2 liang), Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Chishaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Rubra), Puhuang (Typhae Pollen, stir-fry, each 1 liang).
Grind the above into fine powder, process with refined honey into pills, size of wu zi. Take 80 pills per dose, swallow with warm wine or rice drink as desired. (Weak constitution implies weak congenital qi. Blood is generated by qi, and qi is generated in the lower jiao; thus, Shudihuang is used as the sovereign herb, assisted by Renshen to generate qi in the lower jiao, making yin qi prosperous to generate blood; Wumei is used as the minister herb to generate fluids and astringe blood into the liver; since it is generated and astringed, if not circulated, blood will stagnate, so Chuanxiong and Danggui are used as the envoy herb to guide circulation; if there is stasis, Chishaoyao breaks it; if there is leakage, stir-fried Puhuang astringes it. Thus, generation does not cause obstruction, stopping does not cause blockage, descending contains ascending, and warming is not hot. Carefully study the precise dosages to understand the wonderful application of the prescription.)
Danggui Dihuang Wan (Angelica and Rehmannia Pill): Treats disharmony of blood and qi in women, irregular menstruation, and lower back and leg pain.
Herbs: Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Chuanxiong (Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Shaoyao (Paeoniae Radix Alba), Shudihuang (Prepared Rehmannia Root, each 0.5 liang); Mudanpi (Moutan Cortex), Yanhusuo (Corydalis Rhizoma, each 2.5 qian); Renshen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Huangqi (Astragali Radix, each 1.25 qian).
