RE: Female Formula Question - dosage

[Guest guest]

I finally found this in the archives...but it may not apply to this

particular formula...is it right?

 

Dosage for Menopause Start with 1 dropperful (35 drops)* 3 times daily for

at least one week. If this is not enough and symptoms still persist,

increase to 1 dropperful 4 times daily. If needed you can increase to 6

dropperfuls daily, but spread them out. If your symptoms intensify during a

particular time of the day or evening, use more of the tonic during that

time. For example, for nighttime sweats, take 2 to 3 dropperfuls before

bedtime to offset this situation.

 

Dosage for P.M.S. For a regular 28 day cycle on the 18th day after the

start of your last period, take 1 dropperful (35 drops). On the 19th day

take 1 dropperful in the morning and 1 in the evening. On the 20th day

through the start of your next period take 1 dropperful 3 times daily. This

dosage can be increased to 2 dropperfuls 3 times daily with an occasional

dosage of up to 4 dropperfuls during extreme symptoms. Discontinue the

formula once your period begins unless you have extreme menstrual problems.

 

Dosage for Menstrual Irregularity If you have had long-term menstrual

irregularity, start by taking 1 dropperful 3 times daily for 1 to 2 months.

This should balance your hormones and regulate your periods.

 

If it is for menstrual problems during your period, take 1 to 3 dropperfuls,

3 times daily as needed.

 

Dosage for Infertility Start with 1 dropperful 3 times daily for a month.

The next month you can increase to 2 dropperfuls 3 times daily. Continue

with the formula. STOP IF YOU BECOME PREGNANT.

[herbal remedies] Female Formula Question

 

I was wondering how to put this recipe together in parts...would I do

2 parts of the 25% herbs and 1 part of each of the remaining?

 

What would the dosage be? the 150 rule once a day...twice a day for

PMS, Menopause, general reproductive issues?

 

 

Thanks,

Kayte
