According to People, contraception in the feudal Chinese court mainly consists of three causes.

Firstly, the king was afraid of Quan Quan to record his immaturity, leaving behind a bad reputation for posterity. Holding the right hand in hand, the king always obeyed the royal rules and rules. Every time the king " alright " (lovemaking) with the frequency bands was recorded. If the contraceptive is applied, the emperor will enjoy peace in the harem without damaging the majesty, and not spreading the indiscriminate breed.

Secondly, the harem has thousands of frequency bands, everyone wants to be favored by the king. In order to escape the lonely fate of the palace, they always find hundreds of thousands of ways to give birth to the king before the beauty fades. The emperor, if he does not like it or feels that this frequency has a bad purpose, will order the magistrate to force him to avoid pregnancy.

The last reason, the king is afraid of his grandchildren competing for power. The story of massacre to compete for the throne is recorded in many history books, including the incident of Huyen Vu Mon during the Tang Dynasty (618-907) or the case of Thanh Phu Thanh in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). Contraception will help the emperor not have a headache to choose a successor.

Consistent with the interests and needs of the king, the Thai doctors gather the contraceptive method day and night. The history books mainly record the following four measures.

The first measure is the " save point ". After the Qing dynasty (1616-1912), the emperor became even more cautious. According to "The Great Monarchy of the Great Concubine ", after the king and the frequency of intercourse, the archbishop knelt down and waited for the order, asking the king to quit or keep. If the king issues an order, the administrator will lightly click on the " Late-Ancestral-anal " of the frequency band so that "the dragon - sperm" flows out.

If the king wants to keep it, the eunuch will record the specific date and time for proof of conception. A gentle click on the anus is a way to let semen flow out, which is used when emergency contraception is used. Chinese history books do not record well, so the effectiveness of this measure remains unclear.

The second measure is "cardamom willow ", putting musk into the navel. Both beauties Trieu Phi Yen and Trieu Hop Duc used this contraceptive method in history. Inserting musk into the navel will lose a woman's ability to conceive. The use of "unique concubine willow ", however, has been lost.

" Museum of pink flowers ", ie using saffron is the third measure. According to the Chinese history book, "the treasure of red rose " is the most effective contraceptive method in the court. If you do not like any female bow after being alright, the emperor will order the eunuch to hang up the person. The female bow will be forced to wash down the body with water made of saffron flower powder to remove semen in the body. This method of contraception is often applied in the time of the Great Wu Dynasty (907-960).

Taking birth control pills is the last resort. This drug is mainly toxic .

The most frightening method is drinking mercury , very good effect but extremely harmful to the body. Non-pregnant contraceptive tea or female bowls often have a small amount of mercury. This way is not directly lethal but effective.

Another method used by many women is to drink "medicine ". The composition of this medicine contains musk, not only for effective contraception but also for abortion. From Hy Thai Hau, when entering the palace, King Ham Phong was happy and, for the first time pregnant, he was secretly abused by the others to leave his musk into drinking tea and abort. This drug only works well, but long-term use will lead to infertility .
