This practice has been successful with me in cases of long standing and apparently obstinate character. Where there is other disease, as an affection of the liver, lungs or stomach, this must be treated and cured, or the menses will not probably return. Great care should be exercised to keep the patient's feet and limbs warm, as upon this may depend her future health. Dysmenorrhoea.--Painful Menstruation. For this disorder, I know of no one remedy so valuable as the _Caulophyllin_, but _Pulsatilla_ in many cases is efficacious, and as they do not prevent each other's action, I prescribe them in alternation, giving a dose every half hour, for a short time during the paroxysm, or until the pain abates to some extent, then every hour. If there is pain in the head, sickness at the stomach, a kind of sick headache, as is often the case, with painful menstruation, _Macrotin_ should be used with the others; _Ipecac_ is the _Specific_ for an excessive flow of the menses with great pain, especially if the stomach is nauseated. It should be given as low as the first dilution, and the tincture, in water, in the proportion of thirty drops to half a pint, injected into the vagina quite warm. The application of extract of _Belladonna_ to the neck of the uterus will often produce immediate and perfect relief. After the patient is relieved from the painful paroxysm, she should be treated so as to prevent a return of the pains at the next monthly period. _Pulsatilla_, _Caulophyllin_ and _Podophyllin_ are the three medicines that are most certain to effect this object. They are to be given, one medicine each day, a dose at night for three weeks, then morning, noon and night, until the time for the return of the menses, when they should be used oftener if there is pain. If the patient is inclined to be costive, _Nux_ should be given at night for a few days before the menstrual period, in place of _Pulsatilla_. Menorrhagia--Profuse Menses--Flowing. For this affection, _Ipecac_ and _Hamamelis_ are the specifics. They should be taken alternately, at intervals of from half an hour to two hours apart, according to the urgency of the symptoms, and the _Hamamelis_ injected into the vagina. These will nearly always arrest the flooding immediately. _Secale_ should be used either alone or with the above medicines, if there are bearing down pains like labor pains, and sickness at the stomach in spite of the Ipecac. _Ipecac_ alone is often sufficient.
