Clinical commentary 臨床

氣血未復而有房事 — intercourse before the qi and blood have been restored — names the cause plainly, and the section's regimen at 1.31 forbids it for a hundred days. The man's undergarment cloth burnt to ash is a resemblance remedy of the kind this chapter uses where a complaint is traced to the husband; the Uterus chapter carries the same at 13.23. Stove earth is the standard remedy for bleeding that will not stop, used the same way at Ha 8.7. **Bleeding after delivery requires assessment; retained products and infection must be excluded.** — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
