A homoeopathic paediatrician, a counselling expert and a freelance writer are a few words to describe my profession. My sole aim is to put forth practical piece of information that guides every one right in the direction, blending the medicos to a layman with a simple gesture to make the medical things a little less convoluted and comprehendible.
Menopause is a natural phenomenon known by all; it is not a disease but cessation of a natural process in varied ways. Depending on a female the syndrome may present in a variety of forms along with the related common symptoms of the condition. The conventional mode of medicine advocates no treatment and just a few palliates to alleviate. Homoeopathy the most natural system of medicine put forth various remedies to combat with ease and discomfort. The condition is inevitable; the system just lessens on the agony to make the phase bearable and pass off with no trouble.
Lachesis
The remedy is a deep and long acting one with greater affinity to work on the female reproductive system. It is ideally suited to thin, lean and drained females who have changed in all spheres namely mentally and physically with their changing body type. Low spirited with blue and purple look is evident. Here left sided complaints predominate i.e. every pain, trembling, hot flushes all first begin from and are more marked on the left side. Al symptoms are worse from sleep, as soon as the patient gets up she will be in suffering and as soon as she leaves to sleep she is in suffering. A marked statement admitted by many requiring Lachesis is that “have never been well since that time”. Further burning runs across the entire entity with hot flushes, hot perspiration, hot haemorrhages etc. Often a female complains of sense of constriction with tightened feeling almost everywhere. The heat is so marked that she always wants to be fanned but slowly and from a distance as she is extremely touchy and sensitive to any closer object. Weakness with trembling is visible even the tongue will tremble on protrusion that is the severity. She will be gloomy with aversion to food and drinks whether a marked desire for liquors is seen. Along with these there will be great loquacity, she just can’t stop talking. Menses on cessation too would be short, scanty and relieving all complaints.
Graphites
This is another ground of appreciation in the field of menopause. Along with the general symptoms related to the stoppage come the variations indicating the above. This is especially suited to fair, fat and flabby females with irregular deposition of fat with spilt hair, deformed nails, suffering from habitual constipation and a positive history of delayed menses. A milestone directing for graphites is rush of blood to head with flushed face with distension and flatulence. Weeping is marked and she constantly thinks about death. Music makes her sob. She is sad, despondent and indecisive in the head. Also she may present with history of suppressed skin eruptions.
Medorrhinum
Here a female at the time of menopause will present with profuse long lasting menstrual cycles with dark clotted blood which is offensive in nature. Here along with these menstrual troubles sensitive breasts are marked with nipples that are icy cold to touch. Weeping tendency is marked she can explain anything without tears. Weak memory and often she loses the thread of conversation. Impatient, irritable, sensitive are a few adjectives to explain on her mental state.
Homoeopathy sure has a solution to the issue but all one needs is an expert guide to take through the trouble with the most apt and suitable remedy. Correct remedy at the correct time with the right dose can do the trick and let one enjoy the golden era rather than being constantly worried.
