Han Qingshan also sensed something was wrong. How could there be no fetal movement at such a late stage of pregnancy?

Song Yan: "Phlegm and fluid retention are slippery substances. When phlegm and dampness accumulate in the body, it increases the yin fluid in the blood vessels, causing the blood to flow like grains and resulting in a slippery pulse."

Han Qingshan understood; Song Yan meant that the pulse was slippery due to phlegm and dampness, not a pregnancy pulse.

How is that possible?

She still has such a big belly!

Song Yan cleared the patient from the doorway and closed the door.

She pulled back the curtain beside the examination bed. "Come on, lie down on the bed, let me examine you."

Have you had any checkups at the hospital since you became pregnant?

The patient laughed. "As long as I'm pregnant, that's enough! Why do I need any more tests?"

I wouldn't have come if I hadn't been so nauseous I couldn't eat anymore! Life is hard enough as it is; we should save wherever we can!

Indeed, people don't take prenatal checkups seriously these days, especially in rural areas.

The woman's belly was bulging, but a six-month-old belly would be larger.

My belly felt so soft, I couldn't feel the fetus at all.

Han Qingshan looked at Song Yan's expression, "Really not?"

Song Yan nodded, "Why don't you touch it?"

The patient's husband immediately became unhappy. "The female doctor can finish the examination!"

Han Qingshan would never doubt Song Yan on this point. How could he not be able to tell whether a baby at this stage of pregnancy was present or not by touch?

But why is the patient's belly so big? Now he doesn't dare to say anything more and just watches from the side.

Getting pregnant at 40 shows how much she values ​​this child.

If we tell them we don't have any children, will they accept it?

But there's nothing in your belly, can you still insist that there is?

The patient and her husband became quite nervous when they saw that the two doctors were silent. "What did they diagnose? You have to tell us!"

Today is Sister Liu's shift again.

Song Yan: "Sister Liu, go see who's on duty at the gynecology department and ask her to come over for a consultation."

The gynecologist arrived quickly.

Song Yan briefly explained his assessment: the woman was not pregnant at all. Of course, he used rather technical language, leaving the patient and her family completely bewildered.

The gynecologist placed his hand on the patient's pulse as he examined her pregnant belly.

The diagnosis is already quite clear. The reason I came here is not for a consultation, but to confirm the correctness of the diagnosis.

However, it wasn't difficult to tell; she didn't even let the pregnant woman lie down, but simply touched her belly twice.

Song Yan: "I was quite certain about the patient's condition, but to be on the safe side, I specifically consulted a gynecological expert."

You are not pregnant; you have excessive phlegm and dampness.

The patient and their family stood there dumbfounded for a long time.

Patient: "Not pregnant? I've missed my period and I feel nauseous, how can I not be pregnant?"

Patient's family member: "My wife's belly is so big, are you saying she's not pregnant?"

Song Yan: "This doctor has been working in gynecology for many years. Let's hear what she has to say."

The gynecologist confirmed Song Yan's statement and told them that it was a case of false pregnancy.

They also explained the concept of false pregnancy to the patient.

The patient understood each word individually, but couldn't comprehend them when put together.

"Ah!" The patient suddenly burst into tears. "I can't live anymore! I don't want to live! Save all the good food for me! I'm not greedy, I'm not trying to lie! Ah!"

Song Yan: This is even more intense than I imagined.

The patient's husband: "You must be seeing things."

My wife is so heavily pregnant, but we still don't have a baby!

Song Yan and the gynecologist both told him that he had no children.

The patient's husband, his eyes red, held the weeping woman in his arms and said, "Without children, how will my wife live?"

Because my wife doesn't have children, my mother nags her every day.

These last few months have been relatively easy.

daughter in law! "

Regardless, they accepted the fact that they couldn't have children. Song Yan sent the gynecologist away.

The commotion inside the house piqued everyone's curiosity, but with the door closed, they couldn't see anything.

The woman's incessant crying certainly delayed her access to proper medical care.

When will this ever end?!

This is a hospital!

Sister Liu shouted: "That's enough!"

Your hospital has so many patients waiting to see a doctor!

The woman forcibly stopped crying, but her gaze remained blank.

Her husband tried to help the woman away.

Song Yan: "Please sit down first."

You have excessive phlegm and dampness, which probably hasn't been properly treated. In your attempt to conceive, you've likely tried many unorthodox remedies.

If you can't get pregnant, you'll be under a lot of stress and anxiety, which will eventually lead to irregular periods.

Since you're here, I'll give you some treatment. At your age, you definitely have a chance to get pregnant!

The woman, whose gaze had been somewhat fixed ever since she heard that she wasn't pregnant, finally turned her attention to Song Yan's face.

Patient: "You said you could cure me and I could have children!"

Han Qingshan was a little nervous. Song Yan had made some promises out of kindness, and what if he couldn't keep them? Patients like this could become quite irrational.

This female patient has not gotten pregnant at this age and has taken so many random folk remedies, so it will be very difficult to cure her.

Song Yan: "If the illness isn't treated, it won't get better. If you get treatment, there's hope for a better outcome, isn't there?"

I'll prescribe three doses of herbal medicine for you first. Come back for a follow-up appointment after you've finished them, okay?

Song Yan took a cup and poured in half a cup of hot water. She then poured in the cold water from her military canteen.

Song Yan: "The water temperature is just right now. Drink this cup of water first and calm yourself down."

Do you think what I said is right?

The patient slowly drank the water: "I've lost count of how many medications I've taken, so it doesn't really matter whether I take them or not!"
