labial adhesion

[Guest guest]

Dear Group,

 

Can anyone offer assistance to this situation? I saw a four month old girl

yesterday for an

infant craniosacral session. Her mother told me that her doctor said the baby

has a labial

adhesion, which is apparently a condition in the labia, near the vagina which

may make

her subject to urinary tract infections. The western doctor wants to prescribe

progesterone cream to change the labia tissue, but the mother is cautious and

intested in

finding another approach. How would those in the ayurvedic field work with such

a

condition. The doctor also said she may outgrow this condition, but wanted to

use the

hormone cream to prevent possible UTI problems.

 

The mother and I would both be grateful for whatever input can be offered.

 

Sincerely,

 

Kim Luchau

My daughter had this when she was 3 months old. It is often a

reaction to the chemicals in disposable diapers. Causing the tissues

to dry out and adhear. We switched to cloth diapers and then treated

the area for 2 days and it opened back up. We massaged the area very

gently with sesame oil or coconut oil- I can not remember which. Just

put a little oil on the end of a q-tip and gently massage the tissue.
