After visiting the doctor in the hands of the patient will be a list of medications - a variety of hormonal medications, through which the treatment of women's diseases is usually carried out. But, unfortunately, not all of them are safe for the body - many side effects are alarming. Directed to eliminate one of the body's malfunctions, drugs often negatively affect other functions of the body - hence the unwanted consequences such as baldness, obesity, etc.,
Therefore, the most modern drugs have to be treated with distrust. Fortunately, there is a much safer and proven way to get rid of the disease and improve the body. Avoid taking hormonal drugs and, in some cases, surgical intervention will help hirudotherapy.
This method was used to treat people a few thousand years ago. Hirudotherapy refers to the use of medical leeches as a live syringe, while the saliva of the leech has a beneficial effect on the body. The method of hirudotherapy refers to traditional medicine, which is widely used in the modern world as its action has been checked for centuries. Treatment with leeches does not carry any side effects.
The principle of the hirudotherapy, scientists have established only recently. With a leech bite, the secret of leech saliva with biologically active compounds penetrates into the blood. Saliva contains hirudin, destabilase and other substances, including painkillers and antibacterials. They are responsible for the painkiller, thrombolytic, immunostimulating, vasodilating, antihypoxic, anti-inflammatory and many other beneficial effects for the body.
In addition, the use of medicinal leech allows to unload the circulatory system, restore microcirculation in the affected area. There is a general reflex action on the body - the leech is sensitive to electromagnetic and infrared radiation, and therefore sucks only to biologically active points. These amazing features make it necessary to give treatment to female diseases by leeches a preference over other methods.
With the help of hirudotherapy, it is possible to treat quite a few female diseases. Leeches will help with various inflammations of the pelvic organs, including chronic inflammation of the appendages and uterus, ovarian cyst, cervical erosion, mastitis, colpitis, endometriosis, parametrization, fibroids of the uterus, salpingoophoritis, adenomyosis. Hirudotherapy is also indicated for women suffering from menstrual irregularities; It is used to restore the body after an abortion as a means to prevent adhesion. Moreover, medical leech is successfully used for certain types of infertility.
Gynecological diseases rarely exist on their own - as a rule, they are accompanied by some other ailment. Provoke and support women's diseases can various neuroses, violations of the liver, thyroid, chronic gastritis and other body disorders. These additional diseases also should not be left without attention - they need to be eliminated. Treatment of female diseases with leeches is quite suitable for this task. After hirudotherapy has a healing and toning effect not only on a specific area, but also on the whole organism as a whole.
The beneficial effects of treatment with leeches can be felt after the first sessions.Physiologically active substances released by the leech into the human blood, relieve pain, itching and swelling around the affected area, eliminate discomfort, normalize the temperature. The general well-being and mood of the patient improves: in response to a small loss of lymph and blood, the body releases endorphins, which provides an easy euphoria. The patient is in a lying position during the session. It is desirable that the skin is not treated with odorous substances, such as cream, deodorant, aromatic soap - leeches are sensitive to odors. The procedure itself is practically painless - the bite of a leech is not stronger than a mosquito - and lasts about an hour. As a rule, the leech disappears after the required time.
Blood after the session should not be stopped, and it will not work - in the saliva of the leech contains a substance that prevents blood clotting. The time of healing of the bite is individual for each person. Isolation of a small amount of lymph and blood from the wound within two days is normal, although many patients are concerned about this. At this time it is recommended to close the bite site with an absorbent bandage, for this purpose the usual female gasket is also suitable.
It is better to avoid mechanical irritation of the wound before healing - do not take
shower, do not comb. However, the trace from the leech disappears quite quickly and does not need additional treatment with antiseptic and healing agents.
Treatment with leeches does not give any side effects - but there are also contraindications. This procedure is prohibited for people suffering from cancer and hemophilia, and pregnant women. People with low blood pressure, anemia, diabetes, severe mental disorders and allergies from hirudotherapy should refrain. Individual intolerance is also possible. Be sure to consult about contra-indications with a specialist - only a doctor will be able to determine precisely whether it is possible to carry out treatment.
Usually a hirudotherapy session is held at intervals of 2 or 3 days. The number of visits is discussed with the doctor.
