Menstrual Problems In Women

Menstrual Problems 

In this Perth clinic we use homeopathy and naturopathic principles to to treat a wide range of menstrual and  reproductive problems in women.
Irregular menstrual cycle is a common presentation, where the periods vary between 3 to 6 weeks or longer. There are two common patterns, both of which are treatable by homeopathy.
It is called metrorrhagia if most of the periods are less than 4 weeks apart. A very short cycle, consistently less than 3 weeks, is called polymenorrhoea, or "many menses". This is often a lifestyle problem caused by poor diet, excessive caffeine and alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking and stress. Attention to these factors and the indicated constitutional homeopathic remedy, based on the patient's whole symptom pattern usually helps resolve this.
If the menses are between 4 weeks to 3 - 6 months it is known as oligomenorrhea. This may be caused either by low oestrogen or high oestrogen associated with polycystic ovarian syndrome (dealt with in more detail on a separate page). Where the menses stop completely, or fail to resume after stopping the Pill, it is called amenorrhoea

Fatigue

Fatigue is a form of generalized pain whose function is to signal the need for rest and recuperation. But chronic fatigue is usually a misleading signal that does more harm than good, and needs treatment. Since it is a type of pain, analgesics/ pain-killers may be an effective treatment of fatigue. Fatigue is an emotion - and an emotion is a body state as perceived by the brain. For example, anxiety is the brain’s perception of the body’s physical state of arousal and preparedness for action (hair on end, thumping heart etc). Similarly, fatigue is the brain’s perception of a state of physical exhaustion of the body induced by excessive activity. The brain interprets these body signals of fatigue as indicating a need to stop activity. Fatigue is therefore an emotion that signals the need for rest, for physical recuperation. So fatigue can be considered a negative-feedback signal, which limits the amount of physical activity. The more prolonged and vigorous the activity...
