Against this tendency, the court took countermeasures, such as rewarding KICHITA no Yoroshi (called Kichiyoroshi for short) in 721 for his contribution to I-do, and newly establishing the post of "Nyoi Hakase" (Female Master of Medicine) in Naiyakushi.
朝廷ではその対策として養老5年（721年）に吉田宜（吉宜）を褒賞して医道を奨励し、内薬司に女医博士を設置した。
