Remedies are not gender specific
Homeopathy is helpful for women of all ages, young girls to older women, pregnant women, and nursing mothers.
It is always looking at how the individual experiences what bothers them. I often say it is like putting a puzzle together. The symptoms, even the diagnosis or label, are pieces of the puzzle.
So often a woman will come in about a specific symptom or health issue, whether physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual. As I meet with her, I am following what she says, how she experiences what bothers her, when it started, other symptoms, her dreams, her fears, past medical history, what triggers her and more. I follow her, asking her to tell me more. I want to understand what her health issue is like for her. These pieces make up a totality. A homeopathic remedy that is similar to this totality is given, which stimulates her body’s wonderful ability to heal. Often, a series of homeopathic remedies are needed to help heal.
These are some of the health issues that have brought women into my homeopathic practice:
- Endometriosis
- Ovarian cysts
- Menstrual issues
- Menopause
- Vaginal discharges

Patient Stories: Homeopathy and Women’s Health
Injury and Menopause
One woman came for homeopathic care after she had had a head injury. She was doing other forms of treatment, which were helping her. I took her case, finding out more about how she experienced this injury, and finding out more about her. A homeopathic remedy was given that was similar to this, to her. This helped with the healing of the injury, and also helped with symptoms she was experiencing as she was going through menopause. Very often, several homeopathic remedies are needed, using one at a time. She has continued to see me over the years, when a health issue comes up. At these times, we address what is going on with her, and give the homeopathic remedy that fits her.
Sensitivity to Sound and Noise
Another woman had severe sensitivity to sound and noises. She needed to wear earplugs and ear muffs all the time, and had restricted her activities greatly. She came to me after a year of doing allopathic medicine. We had several appointments. The first two homeopathic remedies did not do too much. Several weeks after taking the third homeopathic remedy, she told me that when she washed her hands, her ears did not hurt. Small, yet big. Something was happening from using this homeopathic remedy. We continued to use this remedy as needed, increasing the potency or strength over the next year. She said to me, “I got my life back.” She no longer was wearing ear plugs or ear muffs. She was out and about with her children, and could listen to music again along with doing other activities.
By having the follow up appointments, we saw how she responded to the remedies, and it gave us a deeper understanding of what she was experiencing. Although, the first two homeopathic remedies did not really do that much, they did help in that they brought us to the next homeopathic remedy. There is no waste in what remedies are used. It is a process, understanding what the patient is experiencing and giving the similar to that. The follow up appointments gave us the time and space for her case to unfold, and for the process of healing to move forward.
HOMEOPATHY AND PREGNANCY – BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER
Homeopathy is very helpful during the pregnancy, before and after. Any of these times is a good time to use homeopathy, because homeopathy is helping both the mother and the baby. I often say that during pregnancy, the mother and the baby share the same state. Since this is a pregnancy, I am also including the baby. When I see a child in my practice, I ask the mother about her pregnancy, before it, after it and the birth.
If a couple is wanting to conceive a baby and there are fertility issues, it would be helpful for both the woman and the man to come for homeopathic care. By treating both of them, it is nurturing the soil for the baby to grow in.
If the pregnancy or birth was difficult for the mother, and/or the baby, homeopathy can help. I have patients, mostly children, but adults could be included, that experienced a traumatic birth in some way. These children are experiencing different health issues now, such as a young girl who found separating from her mother was very difficult. Homeopathy has helped her. It is never too late to use homeopathy, for events, or traumas, that happened in the past, and the person has never been well since them.
“Working with Pam helped me recover from the postpartum I experienced when I had my daughter, and this has made this pregnancy so much easier. Barely any morning sickness, my energy and sleep have been much better this time, and I am able to keep up with my toddler. Pam is very thorough, professional, and super caring. I am so very grateful for all that she does. I am definitely a believer in the power of homeopathy!” Kelly M. San Diego

A Patient Story: Homeopathy and Women’s Health
Breech Baby
Over six years ago, I saw a pregnant woman whose baby was in breech position. It was getting near her due date, and everything they were doing to address this situation was not resulting in the baby moving out of the breech position. The homeopathic remedy given helped the baby to turn and move into the correct position. It was a vaginal delivery.
