Women's Health & Homeopathy

Homeopathy IS BEST WAY OF TREATMENT for women who are searching for gentle treatment without side effects. Clinical cases have shown Homoeopathy to be effective in the treatment of many women's ailments.

Women interested in Homoeopathy are welcome to visit our article about some common problems in woman of today.

HOMOEOPATHY & INFERTILITY

Couples who wish to conceive a child but are unsuccessful are often on the verge of desperation. Often all possibilities of modern medicine are tried and tested but still don’t lead to a successful pregnancy. Women who undergo Allopathic treatment often complain about the side-effects – physically and psychologically. The wish for a child can also strain the couple’s relationship.

Homoeopathy can offer a natural, effective and gentle solution to either conceive a baby or to come to terms with the consequences if the wish for a child remains unfulfilled.

WHY AND HOW CAN HOMOEOPATHY HELP?

Part of the homeopathic treatment is to prepare the female body for pregnancy. The treatment offers an investigation into why the couple is unable to conceive as much as the surrounding factors which may have led to infertility. The consultations and resulting prescription is tailored to the individual and a course of homoeopathic remedies will be administered.

Homoeopathic treatment offers a lot of potential in clinically diagnosed infertility.

ARE THERE ANY SCIENTIFIC STUDIES?

The latest study regarding the effectiveness of homoeopathy in infertility was conducted by Prof. I. Gerhard at the University of Heidelberg, Germany. This study proved that constitutional, classical homeopathy was able to reverse infertility in men and women.

Within the constitutional treatment not only was fertility restored but also chronic diseases such as migraine, irregular menstruation, etc.

Heart Attack (Myocardial Infarction)

Homeopathy for Heart Attack

Take only under the professional care of an experienced homeopath. We do not recommend homeopathic medicines when you suspect a heart attack. We recommend that you go to an emergency room immediately. However, these preparations may be useful if you do not have access to a hospital in the immediate vicinity.

Rhus tox: 

For recovery from heart attack, take Rhus tox every three hours for up to one week when the left arm still feels numb and weak.

Arnica - Useful for angina pectoris, when the pain is severe in the left arm, left elbow, in the region of the heart, when the pulse is feeble and irregular and there is distress in breathing. Administer immediately.

Cactus mother tincture: 

When the symptoms are those of a heart attack and not just those of angina pectoris, when there is suffocation, cold sweat, screaming pain, when the face turns blue. Give 10 drops in water, every 30 minutes till the condition stabilizes.

Camphor: 

In case of collapse with coldness of external surfaces, give Camphor mother tincture, 10 drops on sugar every 15 minutes .The victim should be made to smell Camphor drops on a clean cloth.

Glonoine mother tincture:

Hypertension / High Blood Pressure

A blood pressure of 140/90 or higher is considered high blood pressure. Both numbers are important. If one or both numbers are usually high, you have high blood pressure. If you are being treated for high blood pressure, you still have high blood pressure even if you have repeated readings in the normal range. 

Hypertension / High Blood Pressure - CAUSE

Hypertension occurs when arterioles, small blood vessels that branch off from the arteries, become constricted making it difficult for blood to pass through them. As a result, blood pressure rises causing your heart to work harder. If your blood pressure at rest stays at 140/90 or more, you may have hypertension.

Blood pressure is determined by the amount of blood pumped by the heart, and the size and condition of the arteries. Many other factors can affect blood pressure, including volume of water in the body; salt content of the body; condition of the kidneys, nervous system, or blood vessels; and levels of various hormones in the body.

"Essential" hypertension has no identifiable cause. It may have genetic factors and environmental factors, such as salt intake or others. Essential hypertension comprises over 95% of all high blood pressure.

"Secondary" hypertension is high blood pressure caused by another disorder. This may include:

adrenal gland tumors

Cushing's syndrome

kidney disorders

glomerulonephritis (inflammation of kidneys)

renal vascular obstruction or narrowing

renal failure

use of medications, drugs, or other chemicals

oral contraceptives

hemolytic-uremic syndrome

Henoch-Schonlein purpura

periarteritis nodosa

radiation enteritis

retroperitoneal fibrosis

Wilms' tumor

other disorders

Hypertension / High Blood Pressure - SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

Usually, no symptoms are present. Occasionally, you may experience a mild headache. If your headache is severe, or if you experience any of the symptoms below, you must be seen by a doctor right away. These may be a sign of dangerously high blood pressure (called malignant hypertension) or a complication from high blood pressure.

- tiredness

- confusion

- vision changes

- angina-like chest pain (crushing chest pain)

- heart failure

- blood in urine

- nosebleed

- irregular heartbeat

- ear noise or buzzing

Hypertension / High Blood Pressure - Homeopathy Treatment & Homeopathic Remedies

Raised blood pressure is not a disease in itself. It is just a sign of some underlying disorder. Homeopathy offers good prognosis for cases of essential hypertension. The treatment is based upon the cause and the totality of the case.

Hypertension / High Blood Pressure - CONVENTIONAL TREATMENT

Medications may include diuretics, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), or alpha blockers. Medications such as hydralazine, minoxidil, diazoxide, or nitroprusside may be required if the blood pressure is very high.

Hypertension / High Blood Pressure - WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

Lifestyle changes may help control high blood pressure:

Lose weight if you are overweight. Excess weight adds to strain on the heart. In some cases, weight loss may be the only treatment needed.

Exercise to help your heart.

Adjust your diet as needed. Decrease fat and sodium -- salt, MSG, and baking soda all contain sodium. Increase fruits, vegetables, and fiber.
