Hi Ardavan,

It is an UTERINE TONIC,
For nervous females. It is apt to be useful remedy for all types of
uterine displacements and fibroids. It has had a fragmentary proving,
but the chief clinical authority for its use is Dr. Burnett, who regards
it as a uterine tonic in all heavy states of the uterus with prolapse,
berining down and relaxed ligaments.

BURNETT CALL IT " the medicinal pessary ".

with love and regards,
drbinoy.

From Dorothy Shepherd:

In various booklets Dr. Burnett gives case after case of prolapse of the
uterus, and even of fibroid tumours which were cured with [remedy]. Let me
quote one striking example:
A married lady, mother of six children, aged thirty - eight, came to
him with the diagnosis of an enormously hypertrophied uterus, which could
only kept propped up with the aid of a very large pessary. Even though an
operation for removal of the womb had been arranged for the very next day,
the doctor persuaded her to give the medicinal treatment a trial and ordered
five drops of tincture of [remedy] three times daily in water. A week later
the lady felt so much better that she was quite reconciled to abandoning the
idea of an operation. Seven weeks later the patient, who had not been able
to walk without tremendous discomfort and much backache, departed to
Scotland and went long walks on the moors without any discomfort. The womb
had simply diminished to its normal volume under the action of this remedy,
and instead of being a permanent invalid, she kept her uterus and was able
to fulfil all her wifely duties and be of great help socially to her husband
in his official position.
I have followed Dr. Burnett's suggestions and used [remedy] in some
cases with great success. For example: (1) A young woman in the early
thirties came along with the diagnosis, made by a gynaecological surgeon,
"Fibroid tumour, operation necessary and advisable." The psychologist, under
whose care she was originally for certain psychological conflicts, was
doubtful about the psychical shock of such an operation on hypersensitive
nature (in the old days this girl would have been labelled hysterical), and
stated that her nerves would not stand this operation. So homoeopathy came
into its own. The dysmenorrhoea, the bearing - down pains and the hemorrhage
were treated, and I expressed the hope that when her general condition
improved, the fibroid would disappear as well. She was put on [remedy]
mother tincture - five drops three times a day, and was seen at monthly
intervals.
The results surpassed my expectations. The periods, which had been
irregular and profuse for many years - sometimes they would come on every
six weeks, sometimes ten or twelve weeks would pass without any signs of
menstrual loss - now arrived on the very day they were due, every twenty -
eight day. The dysmenorrhoea improved with each period. The profuse
hemorrhage gradually lessened, and in six months the fibroid had disappeared
completely. She was seen eight or nine months after her first visit to me by
! practitioner at a south - coast town, who was a surgeon at the local
cottage hospital, and on examining her, he admitted that there was no
fibroid; but he denies that there ever had been a fibroid. Certainly he had
never heard of a fibroid being made to disappear with medicines alone - even
through three other doctors had found the fibroid previously! "There are
more things, under heaven and earth than thou ever dreamt of, Horatio," we
might say to this son of Aesculapius.
