Doctors are responsible for saving lives and helping the wounded. This profession has never been a patent for men. As early as more than 2,000 years ago, there was a female doctor in China during the Western Han Dynasty. Her name is . Yi Yue was from the Western Han Dynasty (at the junction of Yanhu District, Yuncheng City, Shanxi Province and Xia County, ). Yi Mei has been smart and clever since she was a child, and her interests are different from other children. She especially likes to study medical skills and is full of interest in herbs. She went up the mountain to collect herbs as a teenager, mashed herbs and treated her fellow villagers with external injuries. At that time, some doctors (doctors) would travel to villages and households and practice medical treatment. If she came to the village where Yimei was, she would definitely follow the doctor and carefully see how he treated the doctor, how he looked, listened, asked and asked. When Yi Mei encountered problems related to medical skills that she didn't understand, she would humbly ask the doctor for advice. In this way, Yi Mei learned a lot of valuable medical knowledge over time, and her medical skills became more and more sophisticated. Even the villagers from other villages came to see her for treatment. One day, there was a patient with abdominal distension in the other village. After seeing many doctors, they were not cured. Instead, their stomachs became bigger and bigger, and they were as swollen as a ball filled with air. His family had to carry him to Yi Yao for treatment. After Yi Mei learned about the patient's condition in detail, she felt a clear idea. She took out a few needles and stabbed the patient's lower abdomen and thighs a few times. Afterwards, Yi Xiang used a pack of homemade medicine powder to sprinkle on the patient's navel, and at the same time boiled the patient to take the medicine. After 3 days, a miracle happened - the patient's abdominal distension began to subside and his breathing became even. Soon, the patient recovered. Yi Mei's reputation spread to ten or ten, and soon spread to the local area.

The doctor is responsible for saving lives and helping the wounded. This profession has never been a patent for men. As early as more than 2,000 years ago, there was a female doctor in China during the Western Han Dynasty. Her name is Yi Yue. Yi Yue was from Hedong (now at the ju - DayDayNewseditedititsesses edititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititititit Emperor Wu of Han, the mother of the Queen Mother, was old and weak, and often fell ill, leaving the imperial doctor helpless. After Emperor Wu of Han heard of the reputation of Yi Bao, he sent someone to secretly visit her. The result of the undercover investigation is: Yi Fu is good at difficult internal medicine diseases and proficient in surgical acupuncture. The medicines she used when she was treating a doctor were just some grass, trees, vines and leaves in the mountains, but the effect was very good. After hearing this, Emperor Wu of Han was very happy and summoned Yi Wei to the palace and appointed him as a female doctor, specializing in treating the Empress Dowager. Under Yi Yue's careful conditioning and treatment, the Queen Mother's physical condition improved greatly. Once, the Queen Mother and chatted with Yi Xiang and asked her, "Do you have a son or brother?" The Queen Mother's implication was that she wanted to appoint Yi Xiang's family as an official and expressed her gratitude to her. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in the eyes of others, but Yi Mei honestly replied: "I only have one younger brother Yi Zong, but he is not a material for being an official." The Queen Mother admired Yi Mei's frankness and selflessness, but still asked Emperor Wu of Han to grant Yi Mei's younger brother Yi Zong the Zhonglang and add it to the Shangdang County Order. Sima Qian The "Records of the Grand Historian" written by Sima Qian records the deeds of Yi Zong. "Records of the Grand Historian: Volume 122: Biography of Cruel Officials" records: "The governance dares to be carried out, and there is no connotation in the county, so the first place is the first. It was moved to Changling and Chang'an , Chang'an , and ruled directly, and did not avoid nobles and relatives. He arrested the grandson of the Empress Dowager Xiucheng Junior, and the emperor thought he could be able to be moved to Hanoi Duwei. Then the clan destroyed the subordinates of the Haorang clan, and the Henei Road did not pick up any remains. And Zhang Cigong was also a man, who was brave and brave, dared to go deeper, and made contributions, and became the marquis of the shore." This means that even after becoming an official, he would act according to the law and not avoid the powerful. However, because of his harsh governance and skillful killing, he killed more than 400 people at once, and was listed as a "coward official" by Sima Qian. Yi Mei is skilled in medical skills and is the first female doctor in Chinese history. She is known as the "No. 1 female doctor." There were four famous female doctors in ancient China, namely Yifu in the Western Han Dynasty, Bao Gu in the Jin Dynasty, Zhang Xiaoniangzi in the Song Dynasty, and Tan Yunxian in the Ming Dynasty, and Yifu ranked first.
