What is the best home remedy for dysmenorrhea. I have PMS and often bloated and have loss of bowel movement.?

It is commonly associated with severe abdominal pain and cramps and often relieved when i induce vomiting. There are times when i have loss of consciousness. Health experts, i hope you can enlighten me by an advice and best home remedy.

Dysmenorrhoea
Period pains, or dysmenorrhoea, affect 40-70% of women of reproductive age.
For about one in 10 women the discomfort and pain is bad enough to interfere with their daily lives.
A certain amount of discomfort around the time of ovulation and menstruation is normal and it has been proposed that it is related to the movements of the womb and the hormones and chemicals that circulate around the body at that time of the month.
However, sometimes dysmenorrhoea is a sign of an underlying disease.
The pain typically occurs in the lower abdomen and/or pelvis and can radiate to the back and along the thighs, lasting somewhere between eight and 72 hours.
It can occur before or during menstruation or both. Headaches, diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting may accompany it.
When there is no underlying cause, simple analgesia with a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug such as ibuprofen might be all that is needed.
Some women find that going on the combined oral contraceptive pill lessens the discomfort.
Others have reported being helped by acupuncture, TENS therapy (a painless way of stimulating the nerves using pulsed energy) or a hot water bottle applied locally to the area of discomfort.
If there is an underlying disease causing the dysmenorrhoea then this should be treated.
Often there will be other symptoms too, such as heavy bleeding or pain or bleeding after intercourse.
The most common diseases associated with dysmenorrhoea are endometriosis and fibroids.
Endometriosis is a condition where the cells that make up the lining of the womb are also found in places other than the womb.
With each menstruation, this tissue outside of the womb responds to the same hormones that control periods and therefore builds up and breaks down and bleeds in the same way as the womb lining.
This can lead to inflammation and pain. Endometriosis can be treated with hormones or surgery to shrink or remove the problematic tissue.
Fibroids are non-cancerous or benign growths in the uterus.
A fifth of women develop them in their lifetime. They can be very small or as big as a melon.
Some cause no problems while others cause significant pain and heavy periods.
Treatment options include hormonal therapy and surgery.
Other less common causes of dysmenorrhoea are previous pelvic surgery and a pelvic infection.
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
Many women experience physical and mood changes around the time of their period, but for some it can be a particularly difficult time.
There are more than 150 symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome (PMS), but the common ones include low mood and irritability, breast tenderness and bloating.
Typically PMS symptoms appear before in the days before period and cease once menstruation begins.
It is not known what causes PMS but hormonal changes are thought to be involved. PMS severity often increases around hormonal surges, such as puberty and pregnancy.
Women aged 30-45 often experience the most severe PMS.
Treatments are available to ease the symptoms. These include hormonal contraceptives and more potent hormonal drugs.
Some may prefer to try non-hormonal alternatives such as vitamin B6 and evening primrose oil.

Is there a home remedy for urinary bladder polyps?

I was diagnosed with urinary bladder polyps over a year ago and saw them on a monitor during a cystoscopy. The treatment was apparently going to be very involved and would've required me to lose time from work. My work wasn't going to allow it. Now I don't have health insurance and am trying to find out if there's a natural remedy/home remedy to get rid of the polyps. I'm tired of wearing pads for the "just in case" sneezes, coughs, and hardy laughs.

polyps can be cancerous, so they need to come out sooner or later.

can anyone suggest some natural remedy for my health problems?

i have serious problems with assimilating vitamins, calcium, minerals in general. it's a problem i've faced for years, but it seems to have gone worse during the last few months.i am underweight and even if i eat quite a lot it's useless.
i must admit i smoke, drink coffee, don't eat regularly and lately have had problems with sleep.i have a very stressful life and work a lot, but i have to, otherwise i couldn't support my kids.

Hi Monica

At least you know what is causing some of your issues. Most people wont admit the obvious. The most important thing you said and you're aware of is the assimulation of nutrients. You're right that is a serious issue.

I use a product called Superfood (herbdoc.com) and you take it with water or juice and it gets into the blood within seconds, instead of food digesting (long process) or taking a pill and it goes into the colon and activates there without much vaue at all. This product is the best Ive experienced through many years of using different products (I sound like a salesman).

Most importantly you need to do a Colon Cleanse (probably a liver cleanse as well). Must remove the toxins that build up there especially with the serious toxins you put in your body. When they sit in the colon they eventually get in the blood and cause illness and disease.

You're acknowledging your issues and that is the first step to correcting your health and life in general.

I know you'll figure it out. Way to go!

Best of health to your family

Cheers

i do masterbation frequent and feel very tired. what is the remedy to regain my strength and have good health?


You are tired because orgasm releases endorphins/ produces oxyctocin and that is what is making you relaxed and sleepy. It happens to everyone, but especially to men. Go here:

if you want to stop being relaxed and sleepy, then only masturbate when you are going to sleep anyway… it should make for sounder sleep and better energy after you wake up!

What's the best medicine or remedy for severe sore throat?

I don't have health insurance and my sore throat is killing me! It hurts to swallow. My ears hurt a little too. What is the best over the counter medicine for this, or home remedy?

My doctor recommended that I use two teaspoons of salt (sea) in a cup of water and if I don't have a Netti Pot , inhale that to have an antibiotic reaction while cleansing nose and throat.
Gargle with the same kind of solution.
Put a piece of garlic in each cheek and as you keep your mouth moist the garlic will soothe your throat.
Make some "magic tea". Prepare tea, steep for six minutes then add two teaspoons of honey and two teaspoons of APPLE cider vinegar.
What works is to slice an onion, stack slices in a jar, one Slice of onion then sprinkle sugar, do that with each layer until the onion is used up. Leave it on the counter and a syrup will form, take two teaspoons at a time.
I fixed it after breakfast, had two teas after dinner and two before bed and woke up feeling so much better.
Surely you have something on hand from the above list that will help.
Keep gargling with the warm salt water in any case.
Take care of this , strep can have consequences.
If you haven't gotten this under control by tomorrow see a doctor please?

What are some of your health myths and remedies for a common cold? What is the basis of your claims?


From my personal experience the biggest myth is "It is just a cold". A cold is something serious to be concerned about so that it doesn't become pneumonia or bronchitis. People actually can die from a cold advancing to a more serious stage.

I speak from experience. My mother caught a cold on the last day of July at the Dentists office and was dead in 3 weeks.

If you go to the Dentist and someone who is to work in your mouth has a cold. Do not allow them to work on you. Leave or request someone that is well.

Do homeopathic remedies (the little ones you can buy in health stores) work at all?

I am 20 and I've had constant/24 hr ringing in the ears for 6 years now. I've tried pretty much anything, but have never tried a homeopathic tinnitus remedy? is there any chance however slim that it may help?

Hi Sparsile,

Sorry nobody has answered you.

I've used this answer before. In fact, I think my prior account was deleted because of it. But there's nothing wrong with the facts.

In a word, "no", they don't work. No homeopathic dilution works better than placebo. They can't.

What is homeopathy?
————-
Classical homeopathy originated in the 19th century with Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843) as an alternative to the standard medical practices of the day, such as phlebotomy or bloodletting. Hahnemann's theories were based on metaphysical energies rather than on biology, anatomy, chemistry, etc.

Classical homeopathy is generally defined as a system of medical treatment based on the use of infinitesimal amounts of substances that in larger doses produce effects similar to those of the disease being treated. For example, the homeopathic remedy for sleeplessness is a highly diluted dose of caffeine. Hahnemann believed that very small doses of a substance could have very powerful reverse healing effects because their potency could be affected by vigorous and methodical shaking (succussion).

So in other words, if you put a tiny amount of some ingredient in water, then shake it, then dilute it, then shake it more, then dilute it more, eventually you'll have an effective medicine.

Homeopathic dilutions
————
Homeopathic dilutions are indicated by letters like X or C. "X" means dilute 10 to 1. So a dilution of 6X means do a 1 in 10 dilution six times. Or, in other words, 1 part ingredient, 1,000,000 parts water (six zeros). "C" means dilute 100 times. So a 6C dilution means 1 part ingredient, 1,000,000,000,000 parts water. You can find many homeopathic remedies available with 30C dilutions - you do the math. And the totally ridiculous bit of advertising - the bigger the dilution, the "stronger" the medication.

Here is a useful table of homeopathic "potentencies" and their dilution rates (0.1ml of original ingredient):
6C = 4 Olympic class swimming-pools.
13C = 3/4 of all Earth's oceans.
16C = Sphere of water the size of Earth.
19C= 10 Spheres with same diameter as our Solar System
22C = 1 cubic light-year
26C = 1 Sphere with same diameter as the Milky Way

Another example, the very popular homeopathic remedy Oscillococcinum 200C is made with a 1 in 100 dilution performed 200 times. That's 1 part ingredient in 1 followed by 400 zeros parts water, then sprinkled on a sugar pill. Now, physics will tell you that there is not a single molecule of duck liver on your sugar pill.

In summary, the homeopaths are water or a sugar pill on which water has been sprinkled.

Hahnemann came up with his ideas before we knew what molecules were. So when molecular theory came along and proved that many homeopathic remedies didn't have even a single molecule of the original substance, homeopathy proponents like Jacques Benveniste tried to prove that water "remembered" the original ingredient. (1) They never explained how the water "remembered" the homeopathic ingredient but didn't "remember" the copper pipes, glass jars, or fish poop from the lake it came from. (2) Benveniste was completely discredited when it turned out his lab technicians were altering data so that their boss would have positive results.

Do Homeopathic Remedies work?
————–
Because it has marketing appeal, "Homeopathic" is used as a label on many things, including soothing creams and herbal remedies that are NOT classic homeopathic dilutions. An herbal remedy may work just fine, but it is just like any drug, and should come with all the same testing and warnings as any drug. However, the classic homeopathic dilution liquids and pills do NOT work better than water or sugar pills.

1) Large scale, well-designed studies of homeopathic dilutions find they work no better than placebo. (But don't underestimate the power of a well-delivered placebo to cure somebody's complaint. People who "believe" they feel better usually DO feel better. Just don't try to use a placebo for cancer or malaria or AIDS, etc.)

2) There is a million dollar prize available from JREF for anyone who can show, under reasonable scientific controls, that homeopathic dilutions work better than placebo. The prize has been available for over a decade, and nobody has claimed it. Here is an example of a failed attempt: http://www.abc.net.au/catalyst/stories/s827502.htm

3) No homeopathic practitioner (or anyone else) can tell the difference between a vial of homeopathic dilution and plain water.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/horizon/2002/homeopathy.shtml

4) James Randi regularly demonstrates homeopathic remedies do nothing by taking an entire bottle of Calms Forte - a homeopathic sleep aid. Even though the box says "warning, don't exceed recommended dosage", the entire bottle of pills has no effect on Randi or on anyone else.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2785985155605802136

In short, homeopathic pills/dilutions don't work any better than sugar pills.

Why does the FDA allow ineffective "medicines" to be sold?
—————
Because of their long use in the United States, the U.S. Congress passed a law in 1938 declaring that homeopathic remedies are to be regulated by the FDA in the same manner as nonprescription, over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, which means that they can be purchased without a physician's prescription. Today, although conventional prescription drugs and new OTC drugs must undergo thorough testing and review by the FDA for safety and effectiveness before they can be sold, this requirement does not apply to homeopathic remedies. In other words, the FDA gave anything with the words "homeopathic" an exemption from the requirement to demonstrate that they're effective.

Most people know that the herbal remedy St. Johns Wort can reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills. However, unlike herbal remedies, there are no "drug interaction" warnings for homeopathic remedies. Why? Because they don't do anything.

Conclusion:
——–
If you can be cured by placebo, then you can be cured by homeopathic remedies. But you should look at the price on the box and ask yourself: Is this a lot to pay for sugar pills and water?

Buyer beware.

need remedy that not over the counter for stomach pain, blothing and indigestion.

GINGER(adrak) is also a well known home remedy. It stimulates the secretion of digestive juices so as to break down the heavy food. Before a heavy meal, one should eat 2 or 3 pieces of ginger, coated with a little bit of salt. This combination prevents indigestion even if one eats a bit more than usual.
