Hedinhong Pills，From *Formulas for Universal Relief* (Pujifang), Volume 329.，There are three types of leukorrhea: for unmarried girls, menstruation that does not cease after the first period; or bathing in cold water; or being fanned while overheated; or being exposed to drafts—these are the causes of leukorrhea in unmarried girls; for married women, an excess of yin or yang damages the uterine vessels; wind pathogens take advantage of this vulnerability to enter; when the uterine vessels are exposed to cold, foul fluids mix with blood and are discharged as leukorrhea;Postpartum leukorrhea results from the loss of blood and qi, which damages the uterine collaterals. When the “gate” opens, external wind invades; the body’s deficiency and cold allow wind to enter, and the cold wind combines with internal heat, thus forming fluid that is discharged. Cold typically produces a white discharge, while heat produces a red one; when cold and heat intermingle, both red and white discharges occur; menstruation continues unceasingly.
