Homeopathy For Women Today

In the last post, we looked at some causes of hair thinning and hair loss.  In this post, we look at how homeopathy can help with these problems.  Through today’s post, I hope to inspire you to try homeopathic remedies for hair loss or hair thinning, and enjoy a full head of hair again.

Homeopathic treatment is aimed at not just medicating you for your ailment, but to treat you from within to remedy the root cause of the problem. Depending on your age, lifestyle, diet, cause of hair loss, nature and pattern of hair fall, Homeopathy can provide great solutions for hair thinning and hair loss.

If a clear external cause is found, such as excessive hair dyeing, excessive shampooing and blowdrying, unhealthy eating, wearing the hair too tight, recent childbirth, use of contraceptive pills, etc, removing/managing the cause itself will resolve the hair loss problem in most cases. 

If the underlying cause is hormone-related such as diabetes, hyperthyroidism, polycystic ovarian syndrome, or a serious illness, Homeopathy can be used to treat the underlying condition and arrest further hair loss or even renew hair growth. 

If the underlying cause of hair loss is emotional stress, Homeopathy can help balance your emotions, and arrest hair loss at the same time.  Flower Remedies are also excellent for managing stress.

Homeopathic solutions for chronic hair loss will require consultation with a qualified practitioner.  For short-term issues, you may be able to self-treat. Some Homeopathic remedies that can help treat hair loss are:

Fluoric acid - For brittle hair that falls out in small tufts.

Lycopodium - For premature balding and graying, or hair loss after childbirth. Eczema is often behind the ears.

Kali carbonicum - For dry, thinning hair. Scalp is very dry. Dandruff is also present.

Kali Sulphuricum - For yellow, flaking dandruff, which may be moist or sticky. Hair falls out, leaving bald spots.

Natrum Mur - When hair loss is accompanied by dandruff and white crusts on the scalp. Greasy around the hairline. Hair fall after childbirth.

Sepia - hair fall during pregnancy, after childbirth or during nursing.

Phosphorus - Hair falls out in handfuls. Bald spots on the head that are dry and scaly.

Phosphorum acidum - Hair fall stemming from depression or after a severe illness. Hair thins out, turns gray early and falls out.

Selenium - For hair loss on the body and scalp. The scalp feels painful when touched.

Calcarea Phos - hair falls in bunches upon combing

Vinca Minor - falling of hair with great itching of scalp.

Weisbaden - useful for most types of hair loss.

The chosen remedy can be taken in 30c potency, thrice daily for 2 weeks. For dosage, please see manufacturer’s instructions.

If there is good improvement, continue with the same remedy for another 2 weeks, but reduce to twice daily. You can stop treatment after 1 month when good results have been achieved.

If there is no improvement or if you have any long-term conditions, it is best to consult with a qualified practitioner.  If you want to consult with me, please check out my online consultation service at www.AllswellHomeo.com.

I wish you health and happiness…….

Hello everyone

Hair is considered a woman’s crowning glory. Women spend thousands of dollars and large amounts of time getting their hair done just right. 

When a woman suffers abnormal hair thinning or hair loss, it can be a very distressing or devastating experience for her.

Let’s take a look at the some causes of female hair loss……….

Female Balding: The Causes and the Solutions by John Tulley

As a woman, you are very lucky as you have hormones that are naturally produced by your body that can protect your from hair loss. However, there are some women who are susceptible to hair loss because her hormonal pattern changes. You may not know it but today, there are quite a lot of women who experiences hair thinning even before they reach their menopausal age. You have to remember that there are underlying factors that can contribute to female balding that you have to know about in order for you to know how to prevent it from happening to you.

The most common types of female hair loss are temporary hair loss that is mainly caused by taking contraceptive pills. You have to remember that birth control or contraceptive pills can cause an imbalance in your hormones. So, if you are taking birth control pills, it is very likely that you will experience hair loss. Women who recently gave birth can also experience hair loss because it can also cause hormonal imbalance. If you experience hair loss because of these situations, then you don’t need to worry about anything. After a few months of giving birth and after you stop taking birth control pills, you will see that the volume of your hair will be restored to normal.

Hair loss can also occur because of illnesses, such as diabetes, and hyperthyroidism. By maintaining your glucose levels to normal and by eating the right kinds of food as well as getting your hyperthyroidism treated, you will see that your hair will be maintained to its original volume.

Women who wear their hair in a tight style are also susceptible to hair loss. Before it’s too late and before it leaves scars on your scalp, change the way you wear your hair. It is also recommended that you should never get your hair dyed often as this can damage the hair as well as the roots causing it to die.

Genetic factors can also cause hair loss. If you have parents and grandparents who suffers from hair loss, then it is very likely that you will also suffer from this condition.

Another cause of hair loss is a condition called alopecia areata. In this condition, the body’s autoimmune system will attack the hair follicles causing it to die. When this happens, you will have patches baldness or thin hair in different areas of your head. This happens because of a virus and in most cases the hair will recover after a year or so. There are rare cases where women experiences severe form of this condition that can cause permanent and total hair loss.

As you can see, there are quite a lot of causes of hair loss in women. If you are one of the many women who have thinning hair prematurely, you might want to consult your doctor or dermatologist about it. By doing this, you will be able to know the cause of hair loss and also know about what you can do about it.

Female balding is not really an entirely new condition. Always remember that maintaining a healthy diet and avoiding abusing your hair by ironing it and dyeing it often will be able to help in maintaining a normal and healthy hair. Remember these things and you can be sure that you will be able to know how you can prevent hair loss from happening to you.

Today, I am taking a trip down memory lane. I am going to share with you why I got interested in natural healthcare & in women’s health. So, here we go…………….

I had very early onset of puberty – at just 10 years of age. From the beginning, I had very heavy clotted menses lasting 7-10 days each time, with cycles between 30-35 days. When it did not settle down (normally it should get regularised within a year or two), I consulted a gynaecologist who said that it would settle down when I got married. 

In my mid-20’s, I decided to have a child, but had difficulty conceiving. Tests showed that I had a hormonal imbalance and “multiple follicular cysts” in both ovaries. I was diagnosed as having Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. The condition was not explained to me; nor was I taught how to manage this condition.
