When I get my notes transcribed! Perhaps can share the detailed month

by month herbal and dietary protocol for early or later history of

repeated or actual threatened miscarriage. In the meantime, this is

to share that much is available.

 

Abortions and miscarriages should be treated she says very much like

postpartum, with need for several weeks' reclusive/rest and

nourishment. Going back to work the next day is appalling to her,

even after medical DNC type abortions. Especially when the baby was

wanted and lost, the mother needs much emotional support and time to

share feelings, over the weeks. Rasayana (deeply rejuvenative) herbs

and gentle abhyanga (warm oil applications) are very helpful at this time.

 

If the doctors in this forum here have more to share about details of

caring for women after miscarriage or abortion, we did not have time

to go into that topic much and I still feel there is more to learn

personally. It is the challenge of many women these days in the west

anyway, perhaps also in Asia?

 

Warmly,
