Pregnancy means that a lot of things will change in life. It is therefore not always associated with feelings of happiness, but also with fear of the future and nervousness in many women. If there is inner restlessness, a feeling of being overwhelmed and exhausted, Acidum phosphoricum, Ferrum metallicum or Causticum Hahnemanni are possible. There are also homeopathic medicines for typical pregnancy symptoms.
Homeopathy: important remedies and their effects
Natural helpers against pregnancy sickness and heartburn
Rest breaks, several small meals a day instead of three large ones, enough still water and herbal tea: there are a number of things that can be done about the agonizing nausea during pregnancy. Homeopathic active ingredients can support:
- Robinia pseudacacia (common locust): against heartburn
- Iris versicolor (different colored iris): against heartburn and nausea
- Nux vomica (Nitrous): against morning sickness
- Sepia: against pregnancy sickness
- Ipecacuanha (False root): against pregnancy sickness
Treat bladder complaints homeopathically during pregnancy
Many pregnant women suffer from irritable bladder and are often looking for the nearest toilet. Also, bladder weakness and urinary tract infections with painful urination are an issue for many women during pregnancy, but they do not want to treat them with conventional medical drugs because of the possible side effects. In that case homeopathic medicines can be tried:
- Petroselinum (Parsley): for irritable bladder and bladder weakness
- Causticum Hahnemanni: for irritable bladder and bladder weakness
- Cantharis: for urinary tract infections
- Dulcamara (bittersweet nightshade): for urinary tract infections
- Staphisagria (Stephanskraut): for urinary tract infections
- Solidago (Goldenrod;): for urinary tract infections
- Equisetum arvense (Field horsetail): for urinary tract infections
Dizziness during pregnancy
Anyone who suffers from low blood pressure during pregnancy can counteract this with moderate exercise. Homeopathically trained doctors and naturopaths recommend Veratrum album (Weißer Germer), Tabacum (tobacco) and Haplopappus (bailey herb) against circulatory weakness, dizziness and visual disturbances due to the low blood pressure.
