This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Natrum Mur 10M is probably the best bet three doses at 24 hour intervals and wait . Only take AFTER the menses are finished.
others that may help are
Garaphites
Caulophyllyn
Lachesis

this calls for SEPIA 200C three dose at 4 hours intervals.
repeat the dose set after 30 days. should cure you in 2 to 3 months.

Elaine, if you took the Nat Mur, don't take Sepia now - it can create chaos in your body. Wait at least a month to see what the Nat Mur will do. Maybe the repeated pms is just an aggravation and it will get better. Something similar happened to me. If you take the Sepia now and something gets worse or better, you won't know which remedy caused it!

nat mur and sepia are complimentary to each other.
they will enhance each others role. if you are still having an aggravation, then wait for some days to let it subside.

My vote is Nat Mur - 10M is huge! Why not start with 30c? minimum dose...
definitely aggravation... hopefully that means improvement will follow.
Later you can try Lac Caninum to dry up milk. And if that doesn't work, Pulsatilla.
Did you take birth control pills at any time previously? Homeopaths - any thoughts on folliculinum?

Do you also have weight gain and/or yeast infections?
If yes, you may want to start a good probiotic such as Primal Defense, ProBioGold, Culturelle, or GSE (grapefruitseed extract).
Especially if you have had antiobitics recently - this can disrupt the balance in the gut.
Nat Mur also has thrush/yeast, tongue coated.

Yup - definitely yeast - which can cause food allergies. And bloating and headache and depression.
Also, stick with one remedy if you can - Nat Mur certainly sounds like a good fit. How are you dosing? You should be waiting after that large dose of 10M.
You may want to try GSE first. This will kill off the yeast. Start *very* slow - 1 drop in an ounce of juice. It is very bitter. Work up to 5-6 drops over the course of a week or two. It may cause die off - headache, stuffy /runny nose, sore throat, constipation or diarrhea.
I would also try the Culturelle first. You can find at CVS. Start with 1 capsule per day.
You may also want to consider Three Lac which is a powder you can find online. It works very well.
Are you taking a good multivitamin?
Keep us posted.

thanks for your reply,
I dont know what GSE is?, also i've had my PMT again but it didn't last the same length of time and my migraine lasted three days instead of five to seven, my period was as heavy as normal, though i had worse cramps this month. any info would be gratefully appreciated

GSE is Grapefruit Seed Extract. It has magnificent anti-yeast properties. It works very well. You can find it at most major healthfood stores. We use the drops. Make sure to get Grapefruit seed and not grapeseed.
Maybe you want to consider going to wet dosing of the Nat. Mur at a lower potency - like 30c. Hopefully the others will respond.

Try it in a little bit of Orange Juice. Start with 1-3 drops and work up to 5-6 drops per day. Let us know if it helps. Good luck!

Hi to all homeopaths, i was on another post for antidoting nat mur, this is the original post, i took the nat mur and everything went haywire, my skin erupted in bad spots i couldn't clear up and hair starting falling really bad, its took me so long to come back on to post this because my nerves are wrecked, my pms is as bad if not worse than ever and my head is wrecked, my scalp is sort of itchy and has some tiny spots and i've lost so much hair my scalp is shiny, i'm embarrassed and distressed and feeling even worse because i'm afraid when is it going to stop, please could you maybe come together and look at the case history again and tell me what to take. i'm really afraid of taking anymore because of having this bad reaction.
Waiting on your response
thanks Elaine

Hello Elaine, I would like to say to you that for me it's very obvious that Nat Mur is a very good remedy for your pms! the fact that the symptoms were worse is due to the fact that the (dilution, and the moment you took the remedy was wrong)(bad timing) I understand that you are afraid now to take this remedy, and i agree, it's not the right time to take it. You need to wait... sometimes it takes a while for the body to reorganise it's self.Homeopathy is'nt as simple as one might think!! Not only the correct remedy has to be chosen, but also the correct dilution and the moment you take it!! Please consult a homeopathic doctor who will either give you a different remedy to antidote the (nat mur) or will advise you to take nothing at all and wait for the aggravation to abate. Try to hang on i promise your symptoms will subside. I myself have already had this experience a few times in trying to auto medicate myself. Best Regards Amanda
