The ABC Homeopathy Forum
nat. mur. side effect?
Hi all,I've been taking natrum muriaticum for hair regrowth for the past 1.5 months. In that time I've noticed that my usually strong nails have been breaking more easily. I told my homeopath about this but she didn't mention that it's due to the nat. mur. or anything.
Just wondering if any homeopaths here have seen this happen before? I've always had very durable and long nails and only now they will start breaking even when cut short! I started taking a daily biotin tablet to see if it helps but have not noticed any improvement yet (have only started taking for 1-2 weeks now so it may be too early).
Please let me know what you think and if there is anything else I can do to stop this from happening. Thanks!

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Dry and cracked nails is a proving symptom of
nat mur. Nat Mur has a lot of things to do with
hands and fingers.
You are probably having too much of of this now
and you need to have gaps.

I'm taking 3 pellets of 9C daily as prescribed by doctor.. How often should this be taken then and in what dosage?

45 days in a row you have been doing this?
And is your homeopath a person who just practices
homeopathy? or are they another kind of practitioner
who uses homeopathy?
Is anything happening as far as any hair growth?

She is a homeopathic physician only.. not a regular MD. I have been taking it daily since March 7th.
I think I've seen some new hair growth but overall my hair does not seem a lot different.. if there is any difference it is very minor. It's still quite thin, mostly on the top of my head. Sides and back have always been thicker.
She also prescribed this remedy because I have a tendency to focus on past a lot and was going thru a depression over my last relationship ending.

How is the depression now?
Nat Mur is the remedy for over-attachment and not
being able to let go.
Is your hair just thin, or do you have a female baldness
going on?
Every homeopath doses differently. I am surprised
that she did not give you a couple doses of 200c and
then have you wait for a couple weeks.
The depression is the most important part of this.
The low potencies are more physical symptoms.
It all depends on is the depression getting better?
Bc if so, I would stop the remedy and see how long
it continues to work on that and then take more if
it comes back, and see if it still improves or go
to a higher potency like 30c. But right now you are
starting to prove the remedy and I would stop and
wait.

I had lost majority of my hair when i was 13 (due to Hep B vaccinations) and since then it's been very thin. It did improve over the years but is still very thin on the top and front of my head. I also get sebum plugs on my scalp and this has become somewhat less after starting nat. mur. but it does still occur even now.
The depression has improved and I have not been thinking abt the past as much or feeling to hang on to that person/relationship as much as I was. However, I've been worried lately because a week or two back I accidentally took a sip of mint flavored coffee and I know mint is an antidote to nat. mur.. so I was wondering if it affected it at all. But I think it's mostly in my head and is probably fine :P
I have an appointment with her on May 7th.. so maybe will consult with her at that time to see if I should stop or take 200C few times like you mentioned. She had me initially take one dose of 200C and then from then on I had to take 9C daily.
I would stop it now but I don't want hinder my progress with my hair or with the depression. Not sure what the solution is...

I do not think you are hindering the progress. If you
take too much- you DO hinder the progress.
Everyone is different in how they respond. When
a remedy is acting - usually you let it act and then
wait. And usually if you do a high potency then
you don't do a low one along with it.
It has worked for you but now it is doing proving
symptoms so that means your body has had
enough of 9c for a time. If you keep taking it , I think
you are going to notice more new things going on,
they will wear off when you stop, but you don't need
to go thru that. Up to you, but if you notice more
new things you never had, you know what is going on
now.
If you stop and then some old things come back?
You know it is time to take more again.

Hmm, yeah, true.. Maybe I will stop for a week and see how it goes. Then I will be able to tell her if anything improved or worsened when I go back on May 7th. Thanks for your advice!

Sometimes people have the right remedy, but due to the
dosing method, or potency they have a huge aggravation
and then want to antidote, or they take too much and
prove the remedy and then want to antidote or wait
weeks for the proving effects to leave. I think this is
the right remedy for you, you just have to monitor
the dosing and fine tune it.
Good Luck to you.
