Morning sickness in Pregnancy - Homeopathic approach

 

 

 Morning sickness in pregnancy

 

Dear Friends,

   I have been following through all of yours-- discussion regarding  morning

sickness during pregnancy.

In pregnancy try  not to use  much medications either traditional or herbal.

The best way is good nutrition, exercise, good rest & a healthy attitude. & adequate relaxation.

 

 I  have treated  my patients with  Homeopathy as well as I have given

   them supplements with  Vitamin B6 & Nutritional guidance.

It worked beautifully!

All of  my patients delivered healthy babies without any  complications.

 

    So I  thought  that I would  like to share it with all of you.

 

     In Homeopathy I have used the following remedies---

Sepia 30c, Nux vomica  30c and I asked them to take the Biochemical homeopathic tissue salt

Natrum phosphorus 6X. Only once I had to use Ipec 30C,

I followed with Sepia 30c in the AM  & gave  Nux Vomica  30c in the evening

 

The the vomiting of the pregnant women stopped, so I continued it for a

week, then I supplemented it with Natrum Phos.6x  - 4 tablets taken two 

times a day 15  minutes after eating lunch & dinner.

 

Also when they woke up early  morning before getting out of bed they ate a piece of

Toasted whole wheat bread without any butter or anything.

It helped to reduce the acidity so they did not have that persistent nause or vomiting.

 Along with their Prenatal vitamins I added  extra dose of Vitamin B6, Pyridoxine  50mg, once daily.

   Usual dose of Vitamin B6 is in males 1.3mg/day  ( 19-50yrs) 1.7mg/day(51yrs& UP)

 In females 1.3mg/day(19-50yrs), 1.6mg/day(51yrs & up.)

 

  Maintainence dose could be from 10mg to 100mg /day & not  more.

 

  Major sources  of vitamin B6 can be found in -- Pork, Brewer;s yeast, eggs,

chicken, carrots, fish, liver, kidney, peas, wheat germs, walnuts,

sunflowers seeds, spinach, black strap molasses, broccolli, brown rice, rice bran, cabbage,

corn, plantain, bananas, potatoes, alfa alfa sprouts, lentil sprouts, catnip, & oat straw,

and all kinds of beans.

 

   All the vegetables are  mostlty eaten fresh or slightly blanched,

because B6 is easily destroyed by cooking, heat, sunlight exposures.

 

One has to be careful in asking if the patients is on certain medications

like  Steroids, because they tend to reduce the absorption of Vitamin B6

 

   Be careful if it is taken in megadoses it can lead to toxic & serious

affects--- Like Sensory ataxia-- lower  limbs  become  numb & have sensory

deficient. In position & vibration.

 

 Sense of touch & temperatures are  not affected so much.

 Motor & central  nervous sytem are not affected.

 Recovery is very slow. One should  totally stop the person from taking B6

completely.

 

 It is indicated in many  other diseases;

    Carpal tunnel syndrome, PMS, weak memory, Nausea & vomiting during

pregnacy, acne, cracks  in the corners of mouth & lips area, depressions,

arthritis, Fatigue, asthma, learning disorders, like ADHD, improves the

immune system, eating disorders  like anorexia & bulimia, allergies

especially allergic rhinitis, hay fever type, alcoholism, & Aging.

  I just want to say if giving any type of medications whether they

are vitamins or any other medicines please bear in mind the side affects.

The side affects can cause more harm than we all know.

 

I am speaking with experience. I have been a victim of side affects

from medicine toxicity.

  The best way to treat any of your patients is by taking a very good  history.

You will get most of your answers from it.
