enlarged uterus and irregular bleeding

It is obvious that you are close to your Menopause and the irregular bleeding is characteristic of your present predicament.

You mentioned that you suffered from Ulcers in your left leg. Did your doctors diagnose you with Cellulitis ? Did you spend any time in hospital and can you list the antibiotics you were prescribed ?

Your remedy is Arnica 30c in the Wet dose which is made up as follows:


The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:

Order the remedy in a 5ml Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle which can be used as a dose.


You can also take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 2 main meals daily to help reduce your weight. You can expect a reduction of 1kg per week but you cannot take any other drugs or remedies as Nat Phos is a very sensitive remedy and will not reduce weight if used with them.

I regret that I cannot help with your Fibroids but it is just possible that the Arnica may help.

Where do you live ?

Please report progress in a week.

I failed to state your dosage of Arnica.

You will take a capful of Arnica twice daily

I await your response to my query:
'You mentioned that you suffered from Ulcers in your left leg. Did your doctors diagnose you with Cellulitis ? Did you spend any time in hospital and can you list the antibiotics you were prescribed ?'

Nat Phos is not compatible with Arnica for weight reduction.

You will let Arnica help your main ailment and you can then think of Nat Phos to reduce your weight later.

To Mahfoozurrehman

Your suggestion of prescribing Fraxinum Americana is interesting but I have never used this remedy and cannot therefore prescribe it to the patient confidently.

I prescribed Arnica 30c in the Wet dose as I have had some success with women who were close to their Menopause who presented similar symptoms which can even be continuous bleeding which you may like to know was arrested in a few cases overnight when their doctors could only prescribe Folic Acid which did not help in the least. I am indeed surprised that there is no equivalent to Arnica to stop bleeding in this manner which I believe is continuous.

Arnica will also help to treat her other problem:
'I only had ulcers in left leg in the beg of 2009 and a course of antibios-very strong for nearly 25 days. No other major problems'.

This can indicate Cellulitis and I have many patients who have been in and out of hospital where their doctors seemed incapable of preventing another episode of Cellulitis which they can only cure with the most powerful of antibiotics like Augmentin which leaves the patient in a state of prostration for weeks after.

Arnica guarantees that Cellulitis never affects the patient again as it opens up the micro capillaries under the skin and thereby ensures that the debris and bacteria do not have any chance of getting settled in and causing a lesion.

We can consider your remedy after her irregular bleeding has been arrested.

Thank you for your suggestion which as I state is one that I have not used so far.

Glad to note that Arnica has done you some good.

You stated:
'the reading was that the uterus was further enlarged, the right ovary was not visible and it red like the endometrial echoes were higher'

I am not a gynecologist and cannot advice you on a D&C. You have made reference to 'endometrial echoes' and I am wondering if your main problem is Endometriosis on which I shall copy some information from the link below:

http://www.endometriosis.org/endometriosis.html
Endometriosis

Endometriosis affects an estimated 1 in 10 women during their 'reproductive years' (that's the years between starting your period and menopause). This is approximately176 million women worlwide, who have endometriosis - regardless of their ethnic and social background.

Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus (the endometrial stroma and glands, which should only be located inside the uterus) is found elsewhere in the body.

Endometriosis lesions can be found anywhere in the pelvic cavity: on the ovaries, the fallopian tubes, and on the pelvic sidewall. Other common sites include the uterosacral ligaments, the cul-de-sac, the Pouch of Douglas, and in the rectal-vaginal septum.

In addition, it can be found in caecarian-section scars, laparoscopy or laparotomy scars, and on the bladder, bowel, intestines, colon, appendix, and rectum. But these locations are not so common.

In even more rare cases, endometriosis has been found inside the vagina, inside the bladder, on the skin, even in the lung, spine, and brain.

The most common symptom of endometriosis is pelvic pain. The pain often correlates to the menstrual cycle, but a woman with endometriosis may also experience pain that doesn’t correlate to her cycle. For many women, the pain of endometriosis is so severe and debilitating that it impacts their lives in significant ways.

Endometriosis can also cause scar tissue and adhesions to develop that can distort a woman’s internal anatomy. In advanced stages, internal organs may fuse together, causing a condition known as a 'frozen pelvis.'

It is estimated that 30-40% of women with endometriosis may not be able to have children (if you suspect you suffer from infertility, please see our section on endometriosis and infertility)

If you or someone you care about has endometriosis, it is important to research the disease as much as possible. Many myths and misconceptions about endometriosis still persist, even in medical literature. For many women, management of this disease may be a long-term process. Therefore, it is important to educate yourself, take the time to find a good doctor, and consider joining a local support group.





I have treated many cases of Endometriosis with Bellis Perennis 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. I have even saved 2 ladies from Hysterectomies as their respective gynecologists did not know how to stop the pain and the bleeding they were suffering from for over a year.

It is possible that you too suffer from this ailment although you have not been diagnosed with it by your doctors. If you can quote your diagnosis report, it will enable me to advise you further. In the meanwhile I would suggest that you too use this remedy and you can expect to see some positive result in about a month or earlier when you should experience a reduction of your pain level and also your bleeding.

You are already aware of how to make the Wet dose and you can report your response in a few weeks.

As you are aware, I have cured many cases of Endometriosis with Bellis Perennis but have no experience in reducing Fibroids for which Mahfooz has suggested Fraxinus Americana. I am therefore in unknown territory in prescribing it but I presume that Mahfooz has some experience in its use.

The notes of Boericke's Materia Medica for Fraxinus Americana that he copied fit your picture and it is likely that it can help you:

'Enlargement of the uterus. Fibrous growths, subinvolution, and prolapse. Uterine tumors, with bearing-down sensations. Fever sores on lips. Cramps in feet. Cold creeping and hot flashes. Infantile eczema. '

Please order the 6c potency and make the Wet dose in the same manner that you have made the Arnica and take it thrice daily.

Let us hope that it will help you and you will please report your response weekly.

dear joe,

I have prescribed this medicine in mother tinture to 10-15 patient have have got very good results but it takes some long time say 2/3 month. This is a reliable medicine hower boericke has recommended also in mother tinture.

Dear Mahfooz

Thank you for your response.

Thank you for reminding me about Fraxinus Americana which I would not have prescribed otherwise. This is the great advantage of sharing our combined knowledge on an open Forum like the ABC as all of us who are dedicated to Homeopathy can benefit by sharing our knowledge and it is eventually the patient who benefits with his/her ailment being cured rapidly.

As you are perhaps aware, I am not a professional qualified Homeopath as this Science is to me only a Hobby and I delight in helping anyone who consults me completely free of charge. I am 81 years of age and am convinced that I am privileged to enjoy my life by the Arnica that I take nightly which ensures that I do not suffer from any aches or pain considered normal at my advanced age with BP
