First, the saffron ancients thought that eating some drugs that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis would make the fetus aborted. For example, in those palace dramas, if you want the concubines to lose their children unconsciously, or if something happens during childbirth, they will choose saffron. Because safflower itself is a very strong drug for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and saffron's effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis is much stronger than safflower. Therefore, when some people don't want children, they will wash them with saffron after the end. As for whether it is really useful, we don't know.
Second, musk musk is also one of the common drugs in Gongdou drama. The fragrance of musk is very strong, and because it can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, it will lead to miscarriage of pregnant women. But this kind of thing, musk, has a certain effect on keeping fit. It is said that Zhao Feiyan sisters, who are very famous in history, often use musk. On the one hand, you can keep fit, and on the other hand, if you don't have children, it will be more conducive for them to seduce the king. However, with too much musk, they can't have children.
Third, massage acupoints In the Qing Dynasty, there was an unwritten rule. When the king wants to favor a concubine, he needs a eunuch to wrap the naked concubine in a quilt and take it to the king's bedroom, and then take it back when he is done. And these eunuchs have another task, that is, to find out whether some kings want this concubine to get pregnant after they are finished. If the king doesn't want the princess to have her own child, then the eunuch will massage on a specific acupoint on the princess to make it? Dragon essence? Flowing out of the concubine's body can play a role in contraception.
Fourth, the so-called diet therapy is actually very harmful to women's health, and is generally used in places like brothels. Because women who do this kind of business are not treated as human beings by others, even if they get sick after taking this medicine, no one will care. This medicine is called? Cold medicine? There is nothing special about the medicine, the most special thing is probably that mercury is added in it. And mercury, a poisonous thing, is needless to say if you eat too much. Don't say you can't give birth, you have to send your life in.
5. Condoms Yes, you are not mistaken. In fact, condoms were invented in ancient times, but they are not as easy to use and common as modern condoms. The ancients used to wash the swim bladder and sheep intestines, and then treated them with special means, which became condoms in ancient times. Similarly, there will be women who use some clean cloth or other things that they think can stop the sperm from being stuffed in. Although this is similar to condoms, it is still not complete.
In a word, people in ancient times also knew contraception, but mainly took medicine.
