Natural Cures and Remedies for Genito-Urinary Ailments
Insomnia or lack of sleep can be a cause of torturing fatigue. Sleep induced by sleeping pills and other drugs does not banish fatigue. Intestinal parasites can also lead to fatigue as they rob the body of good nourishment and gorge themselves on rich red blood. Other ailments which can cause fatigue are low blood pressure, low blood sugar, any kind of infection in the body, liver damage, a sluggish thyroid and allergy in foods and drugs caused by additives including artificial flavours, colours and preservatives.
Erectile dysfunction can be a complex ailment, with diverse causes such as having diabetes, taking particular medication, drinking too much alcohol or having psychological problems.

The digestive system responds well to remedies that come into direct contact with its lining (mucous membrane). As the digestive system has a large surface area, it is logical to use remedies that come in large volumes in order to maximise such contact. Therefore teas are preferable to tinctures for stomach or bowel problems. If you use a tincture for digestive ailments, dilute it with a full glass of lukewarm water.
Depression is the most unpleasant experience a person can endure. It is far more difficult to cope with than a physical ailment. The growing complexities of modern life and the resultant crisis, as well as mental stress and strain in day to day living, usually leads to this disorder. It also arises out of the monotony and drudgery of a daily routine, without any meaningful variation in urban life. Suicide is the major risk in extreme cases of depression.
The main causes of leucoderma are excessive mental worry, chronic or acute gastric disorder, impaired hepatic function such as jaundice, worms or other parasites in the alimentary canal, ailments like typhoid which affect the gastrointestinalm tract, defective perspirative mechanism and burn injuries. Often the hormone secreting glands are involved in this disorder. Heredity is also a causative factor and about 30 per cent of patients have a family history of the disorder.

It is difficult to pick a small selection of herbs for the variety of medical problems that can affect the urinary and reproductive systems. The main reason is that such herbs often have a very narrow spectrum of action: for instance, saw palmetto is specifically used to treat prostate problems. It may not be practical to store many of the herbs needed to effectively treat these systems unless you already use some of these herbs for other problems. The selection below, which is perhaps larger than that for any other system, will cover quite a few problems, but for many ailments of the urinary and reproductive systems you will need additional herbs.
