• A. CV6
• B. CV7
• C. CV2
• D. CV9

Answer: (B)

This location is on the Conception Vessel (Ren mai) along the midline of the abdomen. From the umbilicus down to the pubic symphysis is defined as five cun. A point that is one cun below the umbilicus and four cun above the pubic symphysis thus sits at Ren7, on the midline of the lower abdomen. Ren7 is commonly called Yinjiao and lies just below the navel, marking the lower segment of the Ren mer.
