Episode 328 : Homeopathy Hangout – QnA Friday – Hyperemesis Gravidarum with Eugenie and Sarah
In this podcast, we delve into the complexities of Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG), a condition far beyond regular morning sickness, involving a hypersensitive reaction to hormones like HCG from the placenta. We explore how HG can lead to relentless vomiting, dehydration, and significant discomfort throughout pregnancy, not just in the early stages. The conversation highlights various homeopathic treatments, including the use of HCG in potency, Symphoricarpus, and even considering remedies like Cortisol for those dealing with severe symptoms. We also touch on the psychological toll of HG, advocating for emotional support and the use of trauma remedies or natural aids like CBD or marijuana in extreme circumstances.
We discuss practical advice like dental care during HG due to the acidity from vomiting, suggesting hydroxyapatite mouthwash and tissue salts to protect tooth enamel. The podcast emphasizes the need for a holistic approach when treating HG, acknowledging that sometimes conventional medicine must be used alongside homeopathy, especially in survival scenarios. We caution about the potential side effects of medications like Ondansetron and suggest homeopathic detoxes post-treatment to mitigate these effects.
Lastly, we stress the importance of adaptability and community support in managing HG. Rather than joining potentially negative online groups, we encourage finding supportive networks where experiences can be shared positively. The podcast also opens up the floor for listeners to engage with our community, share their HG stories, and discuss how homeopathy has made a difference in their lives, promising more insightful discussions in future episodes.
