my wife's acne...
My wife has been suffering from acne ever since she stopped taking birth control pills several years ago. She has been to the dermatologist, and tried many products with minimal results (Murad, etc). The acne is worst on her chin, second on forehead, and least on cheeks.levijean on 2007-08-08

Have her try Paula's Choice products. you can get them online, do a google search cause i can't post url's. seriously I have been there and tried it all too. this is what i use: skin bal. cleanser, skin bal. toner, 2% BHA liquid, extra strength blemish fighting sol. I haven't had acne in about 6 months and I had it all over. you can return them if she doesn't like them but give it about a week and I promise you will see a difference. also, if she has oily skin, philip's milk of magnesia as a mask works well at absorbing oil. p.s. i tried the 'acne' homeopathy pills and they didn't do anything for me. not saying they won't for her though. good luck, i know how bad it sucks!

Hi,
I have had similar problem for years and am looking for help too but here are a few tips that might help your wife (not all homeopathy).
high doses vit c (2000mg/day) and echinacea herbal tablets (2 weeks on, two weeks off for echinacea)and plenty of water.
diet rich in veg soups and salads, beetroot, carrot and garlic.
Garlic tablets.
homeopathy: sulph, puls and sepia.
there is a herbal remedy called agnus castus to balance hormones, I haven't tried it and apparently it takes a few months to work.
She could get her vitamin levels checked, vit a and magnesium may help, obviously read precautions re pregnancy and calcium balancing.
Good luck, if I find miracle cure I'll let you know!
PS I don't know if you're into affirmations but the one for acne according to Louise L Hay is 'I am a Devine expression of life. I love and accept myself where I am right now.'

Please be warned that one medicine in the morning and the other in the evening, that too for two weeks is frought with irrepairable danger to the vitality of the patient.
Homeopathic medicines are very powerful ,and their misuse has resulted in untold sufferings to many patients, a few examples of which can be found on this forum itself, right now.
Read the cases of Chronic constipation ,and Lomalux Acne pill on the main page, and you will know how badly these irresponible prescriptions can affect you.
Similar medicine
Single medicine
Minimum dose
are the cardinal principles of homeopathy, and all other deviations in the name of homeopathy, are frought with dangers.
Read this thread before you start any treatment.

Our intentions may be good, but many times we inflict damage without knowing that we are doing so.
That is part of our ignorance.
The other side of the coin is not to care about the sufferings the patient may likely get, and push our prescriptions down his throat, through false assurances.
That is arrogance.
A combination of ignorance and arrogance is the most dangerous, particulrly in medical profession.

Please follow the advise of Dr.Haran ch malaker. He is qualified and has clinical experience.
NO-DOCTOR Gavini Murthy, you can always leave your own alternate advise here, if you have some elementary homeopathy knowledge.

The elementary homeopathic knowledge says that you need lot more details to prescribe than a name of the disease.
It is unfortunate that the so called doctors who are being supported don't know, even this first fundamental requirement of homeopathic practice.

Mr.Murthy please see the case of constipation that you have been trying this and that since a long time.You have no idea about the medicines i have prescribed for acne.Its safe no harm to use even months together if needed i will advise further.Why you are repeating old song as a new one.
♡ Dr.Haran ch malaker last decade
In the case of constipation, a single medicine is used at a time,based on the symptoms presented.
Every body can go and read that thread, and look at the way I deal with patients.

Yes i agreed but still the patient is suffering since a long time.My motto is to cure the patient within a minimum time and homeopathy has paved that way.A loose teeth can be cured and healed when a patient is young but an old mans loose teeth cant be cured by any means even root canal.So please remember prevention is better than cure.An old man we cant make young but we can assure less attack from disease.Please keep your own idea with you and dont apply it to others and not try to interfare in any matter in case of prescriber.You please prescribe medicines as per your own way.
♡ Dr.Haran ch malaker last decade
You can prescribe whatever way you feel like, in your private practice.
But on a public forum, your prescriptions are subject to scrutiny by others, and you can't stall it.

Are we prescribing or giving views to the person seeking for it?
Mr. Murthy may seek the views from the dr. offering views (so called prescriber )and discuss with him instead of creating confusion in the mind of the patient.

The merits and de merits of a reasonable prescription can be discussed, as I do quite often.
However, prescriptions like
one potency in the morning, another in the afternoon, and the third in the evening
Or
A 10M potency now, followed by another medicine of 10M strength after a week (without retaking the case)
Or
Take an antimaismatic medicine today, and start taking X medicine in 200 potency from tomorrow
Doesn't merit any discussion, and they deserve outright condemnation.
However there are a few instances where multiple prescriptions are tolerated for chronic cases.
An organ specific remedy either in a very low potency, or mother tincture form, along with a higher potency medicine.
The addition of tissue salts in 6x potency along with the homeopathic medicine.
The prescriptions even like the above should appear reasonable for the trained mind, and if they seem to be far far off ,or outright dangerous, I will intervene.
It is not a question of observing niceties to fellow prescribers. It is a question of preserving the integrity of proper homeopathy and to see that the patient is not harmed further.
If we can't help, let us say so, and let the patient find alternatives.
Simply because he came here asking for help, we can't dish out irresponsible, illogical, ill thought out, dangerous prescriptions.
