Sepia is considered to be a very effective treatment for
infertility. The diagnosis for Sepia must not be based on the physical
constitution of the patient alone. Unless the constitution of the patient
exactly matches that of Sepia, it will prove to be of no use. If the
constitution of the patient only resembles that of Sepia (rather then
completely matching it), then Kali Phos will be found more useful than Sepia. Sexual weakness resulting from nervous
tension as well as the tendency to abort repeatedly (habitual abortion), can be
effectively cured with Kali Phos. If there is a risk of miscarriage in early pregnancy,
then Viburnum Opulus Q, ten to fifteen drops dissolved in small amount of
water, used regularly in the first and second month of pregnancy is considered
to be more effective. Sabina is given in the third month, while Kali Carb is
given in the fourth and fifth month. Kali
Phos can, however, be given every month.
An abortion threatened by a fall or an accident must be treated with Arnica
1000 before the appearance of symptoms. The addition of Kali Phos to Arnica
will be much more beneficial. Caulophyllum 200 also is very effective
prophylactially. Once the bleeding starts (threatened abortion), then Ferrum
Phos must be added to Kali Phos. Likewise, Millefolium and Phosphorus together
can avert the abortion. Sometimes, the
baby is malpositioned in the uterus, posing a threat to normal delivery;
Pulsatilla is usually very useful in the correcting the position to normal. If
it fails, then Kali Sulph, which is the chronic of Pulsatilla, should be tried.
Kali Sulph strengthens the uterus against the tendency to abort. Kali Sulph is
useful in every type of leucorrhoeal inflammation and burning sensation.
Uterine prolapse, and pain and pressure in the womb are best treated with Kali
Sulph, provided other symptoms of Kali Sulph are present. In Kreosotum, the typical sign is bleeding.
The slightest pressure, like the simplest touch during an eye examination, can
cause bleeding.
Likewise, the uterus tends to bleed easily resulting in
continuous menstrual bleeding.In Ledum, the periods are frequent and profuse; the colour
is bright red. If other symptoms of Ledum are also present, then Ledum alone can
cure most of the problems related to the uterus. Lilium Tig is more useful in the treatment of women of hysterical
and explosive nature, who have problems related to the uterus and the heart.
Their mind is occupied by all kinds of doubts, fear and anxiety. They feel as if the uterus and other pelvic
organs are prolapsing downwards, all of which they unknowingly try to support
manually. In such patients, their
periods begin before their regular time and are scanty and offensive,
containing dark blood clots. The bleed intensifies on movement and subsides on
resting and lying down. The main
features of Merc Sol are sharp stinging pain associated with burning sensation,
excessive menstrual bleeding, pain in the abdomen, corrosive vaginal discharge
(leucorrhoea). These symptoms are worse at night. There is morning sickness,
scalding urination, feeling better by washing with cold water. Merc Sol will
also be useful to avert the tendency to abort in early pregnancy due to the
weakness of the uterus, by strengthening the uterus so that it may safely hold
and nourish the foetus.
After marriage, some women may develop irregularity of
periods, pelvic pains and nervousness, and should be treated with Medorrhinum.Periods lasting much longer, pain and cramps in the lower
part of the abdomen and excessive bleeding are the main symptoms of Millefolium.
If all the three symptoms are found together, then Millefolium, by God’s grace,
instantly relieves the condition, with rare exception. Likewise, Millefolium
will allay the threat of abortion where bleeding starts due to slight movement
and stops on resting. Millefolium is
also very useful in treating varicose veins of the legs that develop during
pregnancy. If Millefolium is given at this time, it will stop the progression
of the disease. When a woman starts having fits of epilepsy and spasms due to
the stoppage of her period, or the period starts due to excessive physical
exertion, in this condition Millefolium is also useful.
Kali Carb is very beneficial in treating a myriad of
weaknesses that develop after childbirth. Natrum Mur is also very effective in
the restoration of health. If a fever develops after childbirth, this (puerperal
fever) can be treated with Sulphur and Pyrogenum combined. Pulsatilla helps in expulsion
of the remaining placenta and blood clots.
Irregular periods, the irritating type of leucorrhoea, premenstrual tension,
the bearing down type of pain, heaviness in the morning and excessive burning
in urination are all indications for Natrum Mur. Natrum Carb is ideal for the treatment of infertility resulting
from chronic leucorrhoea. A Natrum Carb patient is of a cold constitution, has
continuous leucorrhoea and cannot conceive. If these symptoms are found
together, then through the Grace of God, Natrum Carb alone would be very
effective in curing the infertility. Pulsatilla,
Ashoka and Gossypium Q are also excellent remedies for infertility. Other
appropriate remedies should also be employed, depending on the associated
symptoms e.g. if the uterus feels as if out of place, then Natrum Phos could be
useful. The hands of the patient of Natrum Phos, like that of Psorinum, remain
very cold. In Natrum Phos, some symptoms also resemble Pulsatilla. During
menstruation the hands and the feet are especially cold in the morning.
General Instructions Concerning Pregnancy
And the Facilitation of Childbirth
Ferrum Phos, Calcarea Phos and Kali Phos 6X started twice
a day in the third or fourth month of pregnancy serve as a very useful tonic
for both the mother and the baby. The treatment must be stopped for a week or
ten days after every one to two weeks. Continuous use of these is not
advisable. At the onset of labour pains, Kali Phos and Mag Phos 6X
dissolved in warm water should be administered every one to two hours
for eight to ten times a day. The first three doses should be given
every half hour and then at prolonged intervals. One dose of Arnica 1000 should be given before delivery
and one right after the delivery. For the fever developing after delivery, Sulphur
and Pyrogenum 200 together must be given two to three times a day for the first
few days. Once the fever starts subsiding, then once a day for three days.
After that, once a day for two weeks. In my experience, there is no better
treatment for puerperal fever than this.
If milk is not being produced after childbirth, then Bryonia and Phytolacca
should be given together once or twice a day. They work wonders. They may be
given in potency 30, three to four times a day. Depression after
childbirth (Post-partum depression) can be effectively treated with Ignatia 200
instantly. If however, the treatment falls short, then one dose of Natrum Mur
200 after Ignatia will make up for it.
For the phobia of going out, the treatment is Calcarea
Carb 1000 once a week for three weeks. Weak and ineffective labour pains should be treated with
Pulsatilla 30, three to four times a day. If the position of the child is
breech (the reverse of the normal position), then give Pulsatilla 200, one or
two doses. For the transverse lie (the child lying sideways), Arnica and Caulophyllum
200 combined, given once a day for a few days is very useful. This combination
also produces wonderful results in a serious and potentially fatal condition,
Placenta Praevia, in which the placenta is attached near the opening of the
womb Further reference concerning the problems related to pregnancy and childbirth
are found under Kali Carb, Caulophyllum, Causticum and Gelsemium. The following
should also be studied carefully in their relative chapters: to ten times a day. The first three doses should be given
every half hour and then at prolonged intervals.One dose of Arnica 1000 should be given before delivery
