Homeopathy can help us to alleviate discomforts of pregnancy as common as insomnia, lumbago or sciatica, tired legs, nausea, gastric problems or urine infections. Traditional medication can affect the development of the fetus, so it is not recommended during pregnancy except in very specific cases, but fortunately homeopathy can solve this problem.

Homeopathy for pregnant women

Homeopathy is a type of alternative medicine to prevent, alleviate or heal multiple symptoms by administering preparations - they can be syrups, ointments, pills or suppositories - made from very diluted extracts. It is precisely the infinitesimal presence of the extracts that makes homeopathy something "innocuous for the fetus but effective for the mother". Therefore, homeopathic treatment is indicated especially to help pregnant women to alleviate the small disorders inherent to pregnancy, delivery and breastfeeding.Like traditional medicine, homeopathy

should not be given without a prescription

as there are many components and doses that come into play depending on the symptoms and characteristics of each patient. But it is worth knowing what are the most used homeopathic elements for ailments such as lumbago, in which case kalium carbonicum, graveolens route or bryonia is usually given. The use of ipecac 9CH, sepia officinalis 9CH, tabacum composé, cocculus indicus 9CH or ignatia amara 15CH for nausea is frequent, while nux vomica 15CH effectively relieves insomnia due to stress. But homeopathy is not only recommended to treat the symptoms of pregnancy but also to relieve other ailments such as flu or migraine. In these cases, pregnant women can replace the usual medications by oscillococcinum, paragrippe or homeogrippe (to relieve flu processes) or cyclamen, iris versicolor, belladonna or nux vomica to calm migraines.
