Fùshì nǚkē 傅氏女科
The Fù-Family’s Gynecology attributed to 傅山 Fù Shān (= Fù Qīngzhǔ, 1607–1684)
About the work
A one-juǎn supplementary gynecological collection attributed to 傅山 Fù Shān, presented as a gleaning of Nǚkē materials not included in the main FùQīngzhǔ nǚkē KR3ei001. The text’s first paragraph explicitly states: “The Master originally had a Nǚkē circulating in the world; these few entries are not included in that Nǚkē, hence preserved here” (女科(先生本有《女科》傳於世,此數條《女科》未載故存之)). The entries cover chǎnhòu 產後 (post-natal), tāilòu tāidòng 胎漏胎動 (pregnancy bleeding and threatened miscarriage), zǐxuán 子懸 (suspended foetus), báidài 白帶 (white vaginal discharge), and other specific clinical scenarios with the relevant formulas.
Prefaces
The KR hxwd recension carries no separable preface; the work opens with the parenthetical editorial note quoted above identifying itself as a supplementary collection to the main FùQīngzhǔ nǚkē.
Abstract
The work belongs to the broader FùQīngzhǔ pseudepigraphic medical corpus (see KR3ei001 FùQīngzhǔ nǚkē; KR3ei021 FùQīngzhǔ nǚkē gēkuò; KR3ed080 Dàxiǎo zhūzhèng fānglùn; KR3ed047 Fùshì záfāng). The catalog meta records no specific author and dynasty unspecified; internal evidence places it firmly in the post-1827 FùQīngzhǔ literary tradition. notBefore 1827 (= the date of the main FùQīngzhǔ nǚkē imprint) / notAfter 1900 brackets the range. For the complex authorship problems of the Fù-Shān-attributed medical corpus see KR3ei001 and KR3ed080.
The work is a brief supplement rather than a full systematic treatise. The prescribed formulas — Bǔqì xuè jiājiǎn 補氣血加減 modifications for post-partum conditions, Bāzhēn tāng 八珍湯 derivatives for tāilòu, and similar — fit recognisably within the FùQīngzhǔ formulary style.
