Secondry Infertility/ Low testosterone/ibs

31 year old female.

I have been trying to conceive for 2 years after having my son 3 years ago. Blood tests are normal but show low testosterone. I have been feeling generally low, tearful, and not clear in my mind (find it hard to concentrate).

My medical doctor didnt seem to worried about the testosterone being low but wondered if there is a remedy that might help in balancing my hormones?

Also just been diagnosed with IBS.

Thank you

I have developed a bitter/ metal taste rightside of mouth and a small ulcer on the inside lip right side. Is this ok?

kay798 last decade
This should go away on it's own if it is due to taking the remedy.
 
kadwa last decade
During the first 7 days of taking the remedy as already mentioned I developed a mouth ulcer right side. Metal taste lasted 4 days.

IBS symptoms have improved slightly. No major episodes with pain/diarrhea but more episodes with wind/belching/bloating which have occurred more often.

General low feeling and tearfulness/ unable to concentrate. Some improvement to low feeling and tearfulness. Presented its self again yesterday. Ability to concentrate on things is still poor.

I have just had a period and I am very in tune with my body. It was very different this month lasted 24-36 hours. Little flow/ few clots. I usually get breast tenderness straight after ovulation from day 14, however this month it started closer to period about day 22 and still is present after my period which has never happened before.

Forgot to say that I have had a sty develop on my left eye yesterday.

Thank you again. Have been away and have hold of thr remedy. Will take tomorrow and report results in 20 days.

Thank you again for your time
 
kay798 last decade
I know that it has not been quite 20 days but wanted to report some hopeful results to you. Within 36 hours of taking Pulsatilla I started my period which was a proper bleed and lasted 5 days and my ovulation time has happened at day 14 of my cycle (rather than as early as day 6 of cycle) . Neither of these has happened since the birth of my son 3 years ago!

I will report again finally in 5 days but really feel that this has been a positive outcome so far in terms of improving my reproductive health. Thank you

Not much else to report.

Should I wait now to see what next cycle is like?
 
kay798 last decade
How are your symptoms?
 
kadwa last decade
General mood is ok, although I am still finding it hard to concentrate. Have had moments of tearfullness but mainly associated with premenstural days. Still feel very tired and lack of energy.

Ibs has been quite settled. A coupke of bouts in the last month which I have been able to link to stress situations. Still getting a lot of wind (burping), although doesnt always lead to full ibs symptoms, but leads to bloating and discomfort. Haven't been sick with any episodes.

Last menstrual cycle was more 'normal' see above.

General health good. Stys gone. Have developed itchy ears especially at night (i dont know if,this is significant).

Had quite a few vivid dreams at night.

Thank you for your advice and support,

Please don't take any remedy now and report back if anything significant happens.
 
kadwa last decade
Ibs has been really settled. I had a good 5 day bleed for the last period. Developed a sore throat and cold.

Really strange thing happened this afternoon, never happened before had a really strange sense of 'impending doom' in and around me like something was going to go really wrong. it was not a sucicidal or anything like a sucididal thought. it felt like something would happen out of my control, but I didnt know what. I had a peacefull afternoon just completing jobs around the house and garden no stresses or worries.

Please read my posts on the breathing exercises called as Kapalbhati Pranayam and Anulom Vilom Pranayam by following the links given below. Please practise these pranayams regularly for half an hour preferably in a garden early in the morning. You may practise at any other convinient time. The only restriction that you have to follow is not to do these exercises within 4 hours after meals. You can have meals not within 15 minutes after finishing these exercises.

Thank you so much. I found out yesterday that I am pregnant!

My best wishes to mother and baby !!

Hi I am still pregnant and taking meverbine hydrochloride 3 x daily but I am struggling with the management of my ibs as not able to take immodium due to pregnancy. I am having episodes of diarrohea gas and bloating. Cramping on and off. As well as this which can happen any time of day and night I have morning sickness most often during night time in the early hours. Can you recommend anything? Thanks
 
kay798 last decade
Please note that the homeopathy remedy stimulates the vital force and vital force performs the necessary actions for cure. The remedy that matches totality of the patient's symptoms provides excellent guidance to the vital force.
The remedy pulsatilla offers best stimulation to your vital force. It is not a remedy for any particular health condition.

Please take a single dose of Pulsatilla 200 and see how that affects your present symptoms in the next few days.

Thank you Kadwa. I have really appreciated your help. As of yet I have not had to resort to the Pulsatilla as I tried a gluten and wheat free diet and since then have been mostly symptom free which has been great!!
