Kent's cases 98: Prolapsus. Sepia

Case V.-Sepia: Mrs. K.-a married woman, 28 years old came to me from
the country, with what a gynecologist had called a prolapsus.

She was a tall, slim woman, otherwise in good health. She was wearing a
Hodge pessary. She could not walk or stand long without her "ring."
She came to the office in a carriage. I removed the ring and gave her Sac.
Lac.
At the end of a week I had noted the following symptoms:
The urine passed slowly, and she must wait a long time for it to start:
Sepia., Lycop., Arn., Hepar., Zinc, Cann-ind.
She was greatly constipated, and always felt a lump in the rectum, even
after stool: Sep.
She complained of a hungry, empty feeling in the stomach: Sep., Murex.,
Ign. Hydr. and many others.
She always had a bearing down in the pelvis, as if the uterus would issue
from the vagina: Sepia, Murex, Lil-t., Nux., Natr-m., Puls., etc.
She must press on the vulva with a napkin for relief: Sep., Murex, Lil-t.
She often crosses her limbs to prevent the uterus from escaping: Sep.
Tall, slim and sallow: Sep.

She got Sep. C. M. one dose, dry, and Sac. Iac.
It is three years since this case called, and she has never needed a physician
since. She was an invalid before. The one dose cured her.
