PREFACE. This small work is offered to the Public in the hope that it may prove serviceable in extending a knowledge of Homceopathy. In this spirited age, when every thing is adjudged by the criterion of its utility, the spread of this science nust depend not so much upon the respectability or scientific standing of its practitioners, as upon their success in vanquishing disease at the bedside of the patient. Aa argument, exhibiting with clearness and force the scientific foundation of the principle of Similia Similibus Curantur, is very satisfactory. Yet the prompt cure of an inveterate range of sufferings by the unnoticed action of the Homoeopathic pellets is infinitely more convincing. Hence, every work which tends to elucidate even a portion of our Materia Medica, and thus give precision to the enquiries of the practitioner, will most substantially promote the advancement of the cause. In this work may be found, arranged under their appropriate chapters and sections, all the symptoms relating to the sexual systems of the male and female, so that the practitioner can be at no loss to find promptly, the appropriate medicament for any required morbid condition. In the A2 it PREFACE. absence of any complete Repertory of Homceopathyin the English language, the supply of even the small chasm relating to this subject will be readily appreciated. To that increasingly large class of persons, who are in the daily habit of prescribing for the numerous trifling ailments occurring in their own persons, this volume may be particularly valuable. Especially so, as these affections, when occurring in the sexual sphere, trifling and easily remedied at the commencement,are apt from their nature, to be neglected, and not until they have grown to be an evil of most formi: dable character, is their existence made known to a physician, and his advice sought. Even then, the delicacy of the subject frequently prevents that full and minute inquiry which is often necessary in order to make an intelligent prescription. We have endeavored to translate and arrange with accuracy, as well as to gather from every legitimate source within our reach, every symptom relating to this subject, and to present them in such a form that they may be consulted with the greatest facility by the practitioner. We cheerfully acknowledge our indebtedness to the New York Homoeopathic Physicians' Society for the symptoms of the Rhus radicans, and to our Philadelphia colleagues for many valuable symptoms of other remedies. UTICA, October 1850. F. HUMPHREYS, M. D. Vi INTRODUCTION. Urethra, the medicine which would produce all the above mentioned symptoms. After its use, should the burning and stiches only be removed, and the discharge of mucus still continue, another remedy should be selected, corresponding to the particular mucus discharge. It may sometimes occur in the selection of a remedy, that several medicines seem to be equally suitable, and the choice from hence, becomes difficult. This will occur the more rarely in proportion as the comparison of the disease and the medicine is the more carefully instituted. Should it, however, occur, we should give preference to that remedy whose symptoms are printed in italics, as being in general the most reliable. Next to the selection of the remedy, the SIZE of the dose is by no means indifferent. Although in the practice of Homceopathy we may make use of crude or unattenuated medicines, yet it is never advisable to do so, as, in most cases, by such means, we only the more slowly reach the desired end. If the medicine has been improperly chosen, and used in such doses, it very frequently occasions a serious degeneration of the disease, which constantly increases with its farther use, filling the patient with anguish, and soon destroying his confidence in the method of treatment. But even if the medicine is properly selected, it frequently occasions an aggravation of the symptoms from its primary action, which, however will disappear after a certain time and give place to a substantial amelioration of the complaint. But the larger the dose of medicine given the more is this point of time prolonged, and under the impression that we have made a wrong selection, we are liable, unnecessarily, to change the medicine for another, when only the too great dose of the medicine has been in fault. It is thus easily perceived that the attenuations are the most proper in order to exhibit the kind action of a properly selected remedy in the shortest possible time, and how appropri INTRODUCTION. vii ately their employment is connected with the Homceopathic principle. It is also clear that the more a medicine' is attenuated up to a certain point, not only will its kind action be promoted, but the danger of injury from an improper selection will be obviated. The 30th potency is the highest usually employed. Many tnedicines should only be employed in this attenuation, especially those which act a long time upon the system. Among these may be mentioned, not only all those of the mineral kingdom, but many from the vegetable, as for instance, Lycopodium, Dulcamara, Rhus Toxicodendron, Conium, Thuja. The effect, however, of other vegetable medicines is of much shorter duration, and hence we may use them in lower attenuations, without the fear of thus retarding their prompt salutary action. But as the power of no vegetable medicine is destroyed by carrying it up to the 30th attenuation, it is perfectly admissable to use them all at this potency. In case of absolute necessity, we may employ lower preparations of even mineral medicines, only we should be careful not to employ them too low, as for instance, the 1st and 2nd triturition. And always with the use of such preparations, we should carefully wait for and observe the effect; in chronic diseases, two or three days not unfrequently intervening before the good action will be manifested, while in acute affections, 24 hours will be sufficient to determine the point. The FORM in which the medicine is administered likewise demands some consideration. Lower trituritions should only be employed in case of necessity: for instance, when the higher are not at hand, and when after being perfectly sure that we have made the right selection of the remedy, the higher preparations are not sufficient. Of the tri ifii INTRODUCTION turitions we can place as much as will lay on the blade of a penknife into a glass half filled with pure water. The solution should be carefully and intimately mixed, and a teaspoonful will form the usual dose. If we are only in possession of the tinctures or dilutions we may employ thenr in the manner indicated above, one or two drops mixed in a wine-glass of water, of which a teaspoonful will form the usual dose. The best and most common form of Homoeopathic Medicines, however, are the well known pellets which have been moistened with the dilutions. They may be used dry by placing 4 or 6 of them upon the tongue and permitting them there to dissolve, or by mixing 10 or 12 in a wine-glass full of water and using the fluid in teaspoonful doses. Finally, with reference to the REPETITION of the dose, the same remark may be applied as to the size. It is not the amount of medicine given at once, nor the repetition of the dose, that produces the cure, but the right selection of the remedy and permitting it to act undisturbed, a sufficient length of time. The best settled rule is, never to repeat the dose so long as a good action continues. Even with the most painful affections of the sexual organs, as for instance, an inflammation of the parts, we should not be deterred from waiting carefully the effect of the medicine for several hours. The action of our most transient remedies extends over a period of 12 to 24 hours, during which, if the amelioration continues, we shall, with greater certainty, accelerate the cure by waiting, than by a frequent repetition of the same medicine. In the majority of cases we may wait an interval of 12 or 24 hours before repeating the medicine. If we exprience a favorable result we may, in accute cases, continue to repeat the medicine at these intervals, while, if we have perceived no amelioration or change for the better, INTRODUCTION. iX we should at once select another remedy. In diseases of long standing it is advisable, as soon as we have marked a favorable action, to permit that action to go on undisturbed, even by a repetition of the remedy, for several days, as we shall thus gain a more rapid and lasting improvement than by disturbing it with new and repeated doses of the medicine. On the contrary, it is rarely needful to wait longer than two days for an improvement after taking a drug; there is no improvement by that time, the selection is wrong and the medicine must be replaced by another. In cases of painful Menstruation, cramps in the Uterus, &c., when the suffering is extreme and demands prompt relief, we may administer a dose, either of a few pellets or a spoonful of a solution, as before mentioned, every 15 or 20 minutes until relief is obtained, when the medicine should be discontinued. What has been written above as to the dose and repetition does not apply to Camphor. Where it is necessary to use this remedy, as for instance, in poisoning with Cantharides, by blister plasters or otherwise, and the genital organs become affected, Camphor is the best remedy. It may be employed in doses of 4 to 10 drops of strong Camphor spirits, and repeated at intervals of a half hour or hour according to circumstances. Such is the evanescent' action of this remedy that it may be used in these repeated and material doses without the danger of any serious consequence. CHAPTER I.

One of the most efficient remedies for the weakness caused by excessive venery is CHINA. It is always appropriate for affections caused by loss of humours, and is especially so in this case, if coition be followed by: Great general weakness and trembling, tendency to perspiration when moving or sleeping; or if there is, over excitability of the entire nervous system. Nux VOM. is more appropriate if the patient is addicted to the use of stimulants, or if there be great lassitude andfatigue especially in the morning; excitability of the nervous system; excessive sensibility and dread of the open air; repugnance to exertion, and painful weakness of the legs and thighs. Should the cause however have exercised its influence for a long time, and the results have become in some degree cronic, the use of these remedies may not be sufficient, and others may be required, among which may be especially noticed: CALC.-PHOS. ACID.-STAPH.-SILIC. -SULPH. CALC. may be exhibited if coition is followed by great lassitude and trembling of the legs, and confusion. of the head. PHos. ACID, —If there be, general physical and nervous weakness, disposition to perspiration by day, or burning sensation in the body; or if masturbation should have inducedfrequent and exhausting pollutions. STAPHYS.-If coition is followed by asthmatic sufferings or difficult breathing, hypochondriacal humour, or mental anguish on account of the excess. It is also ap. propriate if there is pain as from fatigue and excessive SEXUAL EXCESS. 89 lassitude, especially during movement, mitigated by lying down; or if weakness of sight, hovering of black points or sparks before the sight, indicate a threatened amarausis. SILICIA-If there is lassitude and trembling of the limbs especially in the merning, general inertia and nervous debility; or if coition is followed by pain in the limbs as from fatigue, or sensation of paralysis on one side of the head. Useful hints may also be found by consulting the section SYMPTOMS AFTER SEMINAL EMISSION AND COITION. The evil consequences of MASTURBATION usually require Nux VoM., to be followed by SULPH. and then CALC., provided also, that PHos. ACID and STAPH. should not be indicated or prove insufficient. The best medicines to eradicate an inclination to this vice are SULPH. and CALC. administered at somewhat long intervals. ALOES may prove equally efficacious.

All such contrivances are but miserable apologies fo r a more rational method of treatment, and are only to be tolerated in t hose few, rare, hopeless cases, where a HomBeopathic treatment cannot be made available. In most instances the properly selected medicine, administered at intervals of ]2, 24, or 48 hours, will afford prompt and substantial relief.
