乳少者,自虚之故。或产母去血过多,又或产前有病,以及贫贱之家,仆婢下人,产后
失于调养,血脉枯槁,或年至四十血气渐衰,皆能无乳,但服通脉散自有乳。若乱用穿山甲
、王不留行等味,往往不效。即勉强打通,乳汁清薄,令儿不寿,且损伤气血,产后多病,
不久便干,反为不美。
当归(挑选个头极大的)、生地黄、金银花、蒲公英各一两,以上药材用黄酒一碗、清水一碗,在砂锅中煎煮。
另一个方子:白及胶一块,在瓦片上焙烧成炭存性,研成细末,冲入热老酒中送服,病情重的再服用一块。此方每次使用必定有效。
又一个方子:宣木瓜、钩藤钩、橘核,以上三味药焙干研成粉末,用黄酒调服,病可自愈。

又一个方子:用巴豆一粒、细辛一钱五分,以上两味药焙干研末,用薄绢包裹,绑缚塞入鼻孔,一周时间即可消除。
又一个方子:生半夏一粒,塞入鼻中一夜即可消除。疖肿生在左乳则塞右鼻,生在右乳则塞左鼻。
这种病起初是因为乳房中有一颗大如豆粒的硬结,渐渐长大如鸡蛋,三四年不溃破,或者七八年才溃破,一旦溃破就很难治疗。初起时应当紧急服用此方:生蟹壳,在砂锅内焙焦研成粉末。每次服用二钱,用酒调下。每天服用,不可间断。

乳汁稀少的人,是由于身体虚弱所致。或者是产妇产血过多,又或者产前有病,以及贫贱人家的仆役婢女,产后失于调养,导致血脉枯槁;或者年龄到了四十岁气血逐渐衰退,这些情况都能导致无乳,只要服用通脉散自然会有乳汁。如果乱用穿山甲、王不留行等药物,往往没有效果。即使勉强打通,乳汁也会清稀淡薄,使婴儿寿命不长,而且损伤气血,产后容易多病,不久便干涸,反而不好。

This disease initially presents as a lump in the breast the size of a bean, which gradually enlarges to the size of an egg. It may remain unruptured for three or four years, or even seven or eight years before rupturing. Once ruptured, it is difficult to treat. At the initial stage, urgently take this prescription: Calcarea Concha (Shengxieqiao, 生蟹壳) is roasted in a clay pot until charred and ground into powder. Take two qian each time, mixed with wine. Take it daily without interruption.
Another prescription: One large Trichosanthis Fructus (Gualou, 栝蒌), half raw and half stir-fried. Decoct with two cups of wine until one cup remains. Take after meals.

Decoct with two bowls of yellow wine and take when half-hungry and half-full.
Scanty lactation is due to deficiency. It may result from excessive blood loss during childbirth, illness before childbirth, or poor postpartum care among servants and maids of poor families, leading to withered blood vessels. Or, at age forty, qi and blood gradually decline, all of which can cause lack of milk. Simply taking Tongmai San (Decoction for Unblocking Vessels) will naturally produce milk. If one recklessly uses herbs such as Manis Squama (Chuanshanjia, 穿山甲) and Viticis Semen (Wangbuliuxing, 王不留行), it is often ineffective. Even if flow is forcibly promoted, the milk will be thin and watery, causing short life for the infant, damaging qi and blood, leading to frequent postpartum illnesses, and drying up quickly, which is undesirable.
