[A brief investigation on Gu Dehua, a female healer from Wuzhong in the Qing Dynasty].
Zhonghua Yi Shi za Zhi = Chinese Journal of Medical History 2016 September 29
The female healer is a special community in traditional Chinese medical professionals. Since the Song-Yuan Dynasties, although the literati class holding the social voices and the male healers acting as medical orthodoxy were always suspicious of the female healers' behaviors and their medical morality, and tarnished their images through all kinds of media. Meanwhile, the female healers were still badly needed on the account of recognition of distinction between sexes between both sexes due to the rising of neo-Confucianism.
