Sabina 612 Violent pains through the uterus and the ovaries associated with genital itching are best treated with Sabina. The pain is not steady, rather it continuously moves upwards or downwards. Most of the experienced homoeopaths are of the opinion that Sabina is the best remedy to prevent abortion. In my experience, Caulophyllum is also very effective (see under Caulophyllum). When combined with Calcarea Carb and Murex, Sabina becomes more effective in the treatment of prolonged menstrual bleeding, diseases of the uterus, and the tendency to form fibroids. This prescription also prevents against the tendency to abort. If the placental attachment of the foetus becomes detached, threatening abortion, then the immediate use of Sabina will obviate the loss of foetus. If the periods are followed by copious corrosive and offensive leucorrhoea and heightened sexual urge, then Sabina should be used. Sabina also exhibits sign of polyp formation with a tendency to bleed, often present at the back or thighs (natal cleft). They may prove quite dangerous. In Sabina, the patient tends to bleed though not suddenly and profusely. In Millefolium, the bleeding is as if a tap has been opened. This difference must be kept in mind. Sabina is also useful in the treatment of gout. One very peculiar feature of Sabina is that during the attack of gout, the bleeding stops altogether. As soon as gout is under control, the patient starts to bleed again and vice versa. Gout symptoms aggravate in a warm room. The joints become swollen, red and shiny. There is a feeling of burning in the chest. The taste of the mouth becomes bitter and the belly hurts. The patient may suffer from sudden headache, which subsides only slowly. The face and the head become congested with blood. The teeth hurt on chewing food. The abdomen feels full. The patient may also remain constipated. Adjuvant: Thuja Antidote: Pulsatilla Potency: 30
