Beiqi, also known as astragalus, pregnant women who have symptoms such as qi deficiency, loose stools (thin and unformed feces), and spontaneous sweating (involuntary sweating during the day, aggravated by sweating with a little movement) can take astragalus as prescribed by the doctor, but do not take this medicine blindly. Astragalus is sweet in flavor and slightly warm in nature. It belongs to the spleen and lung meridian. It has the functions of tonifying qi and elevating yang (tonifying qi so that yang qi rises and develops), fixing the surface and stopping sweating (stopping sweating by consolidating the surface of the muscle), inducing diuresis and eliminating swelling (facilitating urination and eliminating oedema), generating fluids and nourishing blood (replenishing the body’s water and blood), promoting stagnation and paralysis, and supporting toxins and draining pus (draining out pus and toxins from the body). Astragalus is used for qi deficiency and weakness, loose stools with little food, Qi subsidence (deficiency of the spleen and stomach qi, with the appearance of internal organs falling down), prolonged diarrhea and prolapse of the anus, blood in the stool and leakage of blood (excessive menstrual flow or drips and drops), surface deficiency and self-sweating (due to the weakness of the surface of the muscles and frequent sweating naturally), qi deficiency and edema, internal heat and thirst (internal fever accompanied by symptoms such as overeating and excessive urination), and blood deficiency and atrophy, etc. It should be noted that the solid and Yin deficiency and the blood deficiency can be used to eliminate oedema, and to promote blood circulation. It should be noted that this drug should not be taken by those with solid symptoms and yin deficiency and yang excess. Before taking this medicine, it should be used under the guidance of a Chinese medicine practitioner, and should not be purchased and used on its own to avoid delaying the condition.
