Formulas Name : Miraculous Formula for Inducing Labor

Source

From *The Zheng Family’s Inherited Gynecological Prescriptions Worth Ten Thousand Gold*, Volume 3.

Benefits

If labor has not progressed after three days of bed rest and the patient is in a dazed state.

Instructions for Use

First, place the jasmine flowers in a clean bowl. Next, roast the sesame seeds in a copper spoon until fragrant. Pour one tea bowl of water over the sesame seeds, bring to a boil once or twice, then pour the mixture—including the sesame seeds—into the bowl of jasmine flowers. Cover lightly for a short while to infuse the floral aroma, then give it to the laboring woman to drink. Those with strong vital energy should consume both the decoction and the herbs together; those with weak vital energy should drink only the decoction—it will take effect immediately.

Note

Do not administer to those who are not yet full-term.
