Dear Susun, I just got my first period since being on Vitex and already have a wonderful improvement. Now I need to decrease the duration and intensity of the bleeding.
Dear Susun, Is there something natural that would help with severe pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS)? I’m completely done with trying antidepressants. But I still suffer and could really use some help.
Dear Susun, Have you ever worked with adhesions? I have them all throughout my abdominal/pelvic area, esophagus, diaphragm, ribs, and lungs.
I don’t have lime decease. I have yeast (candida problem on my body), itches very badly at night and morning.
I have been taken 5 drops of oregano oil twice a day for 2 months. it helps.
should I be taken this long term ? Should I continue or change to some other herb?? What else ??
Thank you
Vicki I know it’s not an herbal but you might ask your naturopath or doctor about Nystatin. It’s extremely safe and it could help. They give it to babies with thrush.
For the benefit of future readers: among my Lyme complex ailments was an issue with Candida or other yeast/fungus overgrowth. I had good luck with oral Nystatin tablets along with Agrumax grapefruit seed extract, Para-A antiparasitic (wormwood, black walnut hull, olive leaf, clove, citrus seed, and fennel), along with a change in diet (paleo, no alcohol). That treatment worked and as of now it’s been a year and a half with no further yeast/fungus issues. Nystatin, Agrumax, diet change were about 2 months long, Para-A one month. Good luck!
Vicki Bate,
If you are still having this problem, try bee propolis extract. It is antifungal and effective against candida.
