Flow: natural medicines
The genital flow constitutes a
very common reason for gynecological consultation. The genital channel in
women is open to the exterior and there aren’t mechanic barriers which avoid
the entrance of germs. The occlusion of the introitus because of the lips,
as well as the vagina’s anatomical shape (being a virtual cavity), are
defense mechanisms by themselves.
Normally, the vagina constitutes an acid area due to the action of the
Doderlein´s bacillus (always present in cytology) which lives in it. Any
change in the vagina’s pH favors infections, either of the germs which are
usually in it, or the ones in the exterior. Therefore, the first therapeutic
and natural measure that can be taken is to rectify the vagina’s pH.

Infections
by fungus: if the flow is white, lumpy and thick and it is sticky
as sour milk or yoghurt since two weeks before menstruation until then, it
can be assumed that the patient has a mycotic infection. In this case, the
vaginal area has to be neutralized with intra vaginal washings during 14
days – once or twice a day – using two spoonfuls of bicarbonate of sodium
per litter of boiled water. At night, introduce some yoghurt through the
vaginal tract and let it act the whole night until the next washing the
following morning. The procedure with the yoghurt is repeated only at
night.
-
Infections by
trichomonad or gardnerella: if the flow is yellowish, greenish,
foul smelling and appears after finishing menstruating, it is likely to be
an infection produced by trichomonad or gardnerella, so we have to acidify
the vaginal area. We can do it with washings using a preparation
consisting of two measures of boiled water by one of vinegar during 14
days.
-
To normalize an
anomalous flow: when there are unspecific anomalies in the vaginal
flow another remedy consists in washing the genital area and the vagina
once a day with boiled water and some drops of propolis extract, sold in
herbalist´s shops.
It is convenient to lower or
suppress the consumption of dairies when carrying out the local treatments
described above.
Once the treatment is finished, if the flow hasn’t been normalized or
anomalies are detected again and there are additional symptoms such us
bigger-sized ganglions, cutaneous eruptions or high fever, a specialist has
to be immediately consulted so as to carry out the gynecological revision
with the correspondent vaginal cytology and determine whether there are or
not germs provoking the symptoms. Vaginal symptoms are not always
accompanied by germs. The lack of germs doesn’t imply the lack of symptoms.
The homeopathic medicine, by impelling the Vital Energy (repairing strength
of every organism), helps to modify this manifestation of the “being” in its
totality (including the emotional aspect) through the body.
The homeopathic treatment is the most accurate for these kinds of
pathologies since it acts reestablishing the equilibrium of the defense
systems of the body in order to be able to solve the problem by itself
without “attacking” and destroying the vaginal flora, as with antibiotics
and antimycotics.
I would like to state that before any lesion (painful or not) in the
external genitals, the immediate visit to the gynecologist is imperative.
