Hair Loss issue

Hello! Thank you for taking time to read my post! I feel that Homeopathy might help me to overcome my illness and hope to find a right protocol for myself(I would really like to make an appointment to a good homeopath too so when I can afford it I will do it right away!).
I am experiencing a hair loss. My problem has started several years ago and reappeared after my baby was around 6 month old. Before my pregnancy I was really in distress trying to mentally cope with devastating hair foliage so it was a bit of a relief during the pregnancy when from time to time I didn't have hair fall. Unfortunately again I am experiencing this issue.
After reading about different constitutions I started believing that my type was Lyccopodium! So I bought a remedy 6c and started taking it twice a day, 2 pellets a time. I felt that I started feeling mentally better almost right away. But my little son who I am breastfeeding felt very disturbed especially when sucking my milk and I could hear the sound of gases in his belly. I suspect being flatulent made him feel very uncomfortable. Of course after discovering this issue with my son I stopped taking the remedy.
A week later my sister was going to see her homeopath(she brings her little daughter to him) and I asked her to check with her homeopath if the remedy had have given the symptoms to my son or not. She inquired him about my question and first he asked her about the reason I decided to take Lyccopodium. She didn't know the reason why I was taking it so she just said that she wasn't sure...The doctor told her that I shouldn't take this remedy no matter what and that he was positive that my son had symptoms because of this medicine.
The second remedy which I had a big promise to was Silicae since it also matches many of my symptoms. I bought Silicae 6c and started taking it twice a day for two days. I do not know if it was a coincidence but I was waking up with very heavy head and was irritable for two mornings in a row. So I stopped taking it too.
I am puzzled about the whole situation!
Should I take constitutional(200 potency) remedy or to stick with low potency?
What should I do in order not to harm my son while I am breastfeeding?
Could Silicae give me this mental brain-fag and sence of irritability?
Why my sister's homeopath told her that I didn't take Lyccopodium?
Please, dear homeopaths, give me your insights about my problem. I would greatly appreciate any opinion! I want to be cured if the right for me remedy exists! Thank you.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Hello there!
Seems that you are proving Silicea. Please do not take any deep acting Homeopathic remedy now, without consulting a Classical Homeopath, as you are breast feeding your child.
Make sure that you are taking a nutritious diet.
Wishing wellness!

I am prone to worry. I might be moody even though since I am aware of my moodiness i try to improve this trait by positive affirmations.I had never been jealous but a couple of years ago i started having this feeling about others' achievments(it drives me nuts because the least I want to do in my life is to be jealous towards pther people but I really want to be happy about others).

- do you like being consoled during your tough times? yes. i feel a great relief when my family supports me with positive words.
- are you sensitive to external stimuli like smell, noise, light etc? from my childhood i was a person who like to smell everything. it is even a joke in my family. also, even though i like good music and in my 20's i used to listen to it loudly, nowadays I prefer to set up it on low. also, i use earplugs at night because a fan or air conditioner work soundly for me

- do you have any typical habit or gesture like nail biting, causeless
weeping, talking to one self etc? I used to bite my lips. I try to be aware about this problem but sometimes(usually at night time in a state of sleepiness) I still do it.

11. what are your fears and do you dream of any situation repeatedly? I do not have repeated dreams. my fears to become senile, to lose my hair.


12. what do you crave for in food items and what are your aversions? I can't say that I crave something in particular. but definetely I like good quality organic meat, dairy products, freshly home baked bread nad other dough goods.


13. how is your thirst: less, normal or excessive?
normal. I used to not dring as much water in the past since my husband always pours me a glass of water for healthy benefits. so I got used to drinking much water.
14. how if your hunger: less, normal or excessive?
i used to eat have binges in the past. but now i have healthy attitude towards food because I learned more about my body and the food.
15. is there any kind of food which your body can’t stand?
i used to be flatulent years ago because of fermented food, cabbage. but nowdays I improved my digestion and do not experience this issue so can eat all those foods more freely.
16. is your sweat normal or less or more? where does it sweat more: head, trunk or limbs? i am not a really sweaty person.

17. how is your bowel movement and stool type? I used to have diarrea before exams in the past.my stool was always on a loose side. I used to meed to go to the restroom ogten since I couldn't eliminate everything at one time. nowadays it has improved because i take fiber reach food,my diet is improved, am more aware about mind/body connection.

how well do you sleep? do you have a particular posture of sleeping?
after my pregnancy I started having a different sleep pattern. if something gets me awake while i am tired and alling asleep-I might have some troubles to fall back asleep. i am prone to need around 9-10 hours of sleep to feel mentally good.

19. do you think you are able to satisfy your sexual desires in general? I am not the person who initiate sex by herself. i am not experiencing orgasm so often. I wasn't aware of the issues of vaginal dryeness but having been itchy in that area after pregnancy my doctor said to use moisturizer which I think is helpfull for inchiness. so now I think that all this years of not being inclined to have much pleasure during the intercorse, the problem might have been not enough moisture in that area.

20. how do you think you are different from others, if at all?
i am a sensitive person. I am kind of weak even though I am trying to hide this trait from everybody.

21. what medications have been taken earlier by you to treat the diseases and do you have any particular symptom surfacing after the medication?
I do not take any medicine since i was pregnant and now breastfeeding. i take ocasionally organic whole food multivitamines. in the past( 4 years ago) when I had issues with anxiety/aggravated low self-esteem while being in public, a doctor prescribed my sssr which was so stupid to take in low dose for 8 months. during the time of takeng this poisonous medicine I started losing lots of hair( even moe than before taking this prescribtion).

22. what major diseases are running in your family?
not major esease as far as I am concerned. my grand mother had ashma, diabitis. my mother is also a big worrier, as well as my older sister so I kind od inherited this mentsl state of being anxious from my mother.

23. describe, how do you look like? describe your overall appearance I have lost a lot of hair and my hair are much thinner than 10 years ago but I do not have bold parts. I am normastenic with not big breasts, with inclination to have fat deposits on my belly and waist area. my height is 5.4', my afterpregnancy weight is 63 kg( i thing to come back to my after pregnancy 54 kg after i stop breastfeeding).

Dear Kashif,

Uccording to my answered questionnaire, Kadwa in my othe post advised I take Pulsatilla 200 3 doses and to wait for 15 days.
I am waiting for Pulsatilla to be delivered by mail.

Do you strongly believe to start with Sepia?

Best regards,

I appreciate your and Kadwa's opinions,

Lisa

Hi Lisa,

You have two posts on same issues. No two people will exactly agree on
a remedy. You have to decide to follow one person. You cannot have
two prescribers on here and two different treatment threads.

Obviously Libra did not know your case had another thread and was
being studied and prescribed for by Kadwa.

Please decide and then stay on that thread.

Regards,

Simone, thank you for your comment. I strongly agree that I need to follow one thread.

Kashif, I believe that one of two of the remedies, Pulsatilla or Sepia, might greatly improve my health (or one taken after another).
I think it is fair for me to follow Kadwa's thread since we started working with him already.

Kashif, please, tell me though your opinion about Pulsatilla and breastfeeding. I am asking because I've read your comment in one of the posts that after your wife had taken Pulsatilla 200 ( a few doses) she had no milk after the baby was born. Did I get it right? Do you see correlation between the remedy and milk supply? Was she able to overcome this issue by herself?
Sorry for bombarding you with this questions! But since you had have this issue beforehand, I would be very thankful to hear from you about this particular matter.

Thank you very much.
And again, I am very grateful to be able to be ask all immersing in my head questions!!!
Best wishes,
Namaste,
Lisa
