Homeopathy for Women's Health: Balancing Hormones Naturally
Embrace Hormonal Harmony: Unleashing Homeopathy for Women's Wellness.
Hormonal imbalance in women can cause changes in mood, behaviour, weight gain and skin problems like acne or facial hair. Homeopathy treats hormonal imbalances holistically, addressing mental, emotional, and physical symptoms. Homeopathic treatment is individualised and there are no specific medicines for oestrogen dominance, low progesterone, or Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) in Homeopathy.
Women's health is a complex and delicate matter influenced by hormonal fluctuations. Paying attention to your cycle including mood shifts, energy shifts, appetite changes and even how you feel socially or towards your body image can help you to take care of yourself during each phase of your cycle. Homeopathy offers effective remedies for hormonal imbalances and menstrual issues.
Sepia is often used for hormonal imbalance in women during menopause and PMS. It is a remedy for most hormonal problems in women. It has an affinity to the Portal system (so a great liver support). A lot of drugs are detoxified by the liver and a lot of hormones are metabolised in the liver, so it is good to have a liver that functions well. It also has an affinity to the female pelvic organs. The person who needs Sepia will often be irritable and feels they have to do too much without any support.
Lachesis is indicated for menopausal symptoms with hot flushes that are worse on waking. They can’t tolerate the pressure of clothes or bedclothes. They do not sweat with their hot flushes, and they can feel depressed, irritable or anxious.
Pulsatilla is one of our remedies for irregular menstrual cycles. Changeability is very characteristic of this remedy – their cycle is changeable, their moods are changeable and they feel forsaken and want to be comforted. A notable symptom of Pulsatilla is that they are not thirsty and fresh air makes them feel better.
Another remedy, Ignatia is suitable for women who experience severe mood swings, depression and emotional upsets. They can have quite bad menstrual cramps or their periods may be suppressed. Homeopathic treatment for emotional disturbances related to hormonal imbalances offers natural support for women's health.
Some foods to add to your diet for hormonal health could include broccoli sprouts, these contain sulforaphane which can be helpful in supporting oestrogen metabolism via the liver and they are also high in fibre which is great for the bowel. Oysters, which are high in zinc, can support testosterone production and can help boost libido. Avocados can help with blood sugar balance, which is crucial for hormone balance. Berries can reduce inflammation. Eggs are high in choline, a nutrient critical for fertility and therefore important for hormone health. For painful periods it is best to reduce alcohol intake, eat more cruciferous vegetables e.g. broccoli, include fatty fish in your diet and get enough magnesium by including plenty of leafy greens in your diet.
Discover the path to hormonal balance and embrace a more harmonious well-being with Homeopathy. Taking a Homeopathic remedy is easy, simply tip one or two pills into the lid of the bottle, or on to a spoon (returning extras), then put them in your mouth. This is the most common way to take a remedy. Replace the lid on the bottle as quickly as possible.
The pills should be sucked until they are dissolved. Nothing should be put in the mouth for fifteen minutes before or after taking the remedy in order to give it the best chance of working. This includes food, and drink.
