Homeopathy treats Menopause without side effects

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE / PRURGENT

Menopause is a term that indicates the permanent cessation of menses. Natural menopause occurs between the ages of 45 and 55 years with a mean age of incidence around 51 years worldwide. One of the most common menopausal symptoms; hot flushes, occurs as a result of dropping oestrogen levels that cause blood vessels to expand rapidly with a consequent rush of blood to the area, leading to an increase in the skin temperature.

Ms. Reshma (name changed), a 44-years-old lady with intense hot flushes, palpitations and irregular periods since three months, was referred by her friend to Dr. Batra’s®. She had earlier approached her gynaecologist who had advised Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), but the patient was apprehensive about its side effects. Based on her physical and mental symptoms, i.e., hot flushes, palpitations, mood swings, and irritability, she was prescribed the homeopathic remedy Lachesis 200C. This not only helped her to tide over the menopause crisis but also elevated her mood and brought her routine back on track.

Most often, to relieve the symptoms of menopause as well as to reduce specific health risks in menopausal and postmenopausal women, allopathic physicians often prescribe synthetic hormones like oestrogen. The biggest side effect of HRT is that it carries a very high risk of developing breast cancer and other cancers that are common among women.

Also, a recent study has found that Indian women are now attaining menopause as early as at the age of 30. It also puts them at a higher risk of being affected with osteoporosis, heart diseases, hypertension and breast cancer, says a study conducted by Bangalore’s Institute for Social and Economic Change. The data for the study, which was based on the National Family Health Survey of 1998-99, collected information from a sample of more than 90,000 married women aged between 15 and 49 and covered 99% of India’s population living in 26 states.

Homeopathy is the safest mode of treatment before, during, and after menopause because it restores the natural hormonal balance without the use of harmful drugs. Homeopathic treatment, when started at the right time during the course of the disease, helps to avoid complications. It also helps to provide immediate pain relief without any side-effects, besides also reducing the recurrence of the pain.
