It is one of the best homeopathic medicines to treat prostate issues like enlarged prostate and prostatitis in males.
The ‘Sabal Serrulata’ Constitution
It is mainly recommended for males, especially those suffering from some sort of prostate issues.

Scope As A Homeopathic Remedy
1. Male problems (prostate enlargement, prostatitis, epididymitis, weak erections)
Sabal Serrulata is being extensively used in homeopathy for numerous male problems among which prostate troubles top the list. It is an infallible medicine to treat prostate issues especially enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia – BPH) and prostatitis. It is of great value to manage complaints of frequent urination related to prostate issues. The urine frequency usually increases at night causing troubled sleep. There can be slight pain in the prostate region that may extend to the abdomen and thighs. Sabal is well indicated to manage complaints of difficulty in starting urine flow, interrupted urine stream and dribbling of urine in BPH cases. Another noteworthy complaint where Sabal Serrulata helps is erectile dysfunction related to prostate issues. Erectile dysfunction refers to the inability to get or maintain an erection firm enough to have sexual intercourse. The genitals may feel cold and there may also be loss of sex drive. It can also be given for managing complaints of painful ejaculation. In some cases needing it, there can be atrophy (shrinkage and decrease in size) of testicles.
Sabal is a magnificent medicine for epididymitis management. Epididymitis refers to inflammation of epididymis which is a coiled tube at the back of the testicles that stores sperms and carries them from testicles to vas deferens. This medicine is also considered in cases of sexual perversions.

This medicine is very beneficial for various urinary problems. Firstly, it is recommended to manage frequent urination at night. Secondly, it is well indicated for cases of bladder inflammation (cystitis) when associated with enlarged prostate. It can also be given for treating cases of urethral stricture. At the beginning of urination, there may be pain with a sensation that urine is being forced to pass through a narrow opening. The urethra feels narrow and urine is passed with difficulty. It can be attended with burning sensation and smarting pain (sharp, stinging pain) in the urethra. Sabal Serrulata helps tremendously in cases of urinary incontinence (involuntary urine passage) that may happen from laughing or exertion. Lastly, it is indicated for bladder pain that may extend to the genitals and there is a feeling of the urinary bladder being full.

For females, this medicine is preferred to help cases of suppressed menses (amenorrhoea) and also for irregular periods. It is also effective in dealing with ovary pain which is mainly stinging in nature and may radiate down to the thighs from the ovaries. Tenderness (pain on touching) may be felt in the ovary region. This medicine can be given when there is a loss of sex drive and also in cases of sexual perversions.
This medicine is known to have a significant value in case of underdeveloped breasts where it works well to promote breast development. It is also indicated when one breast is smaller than the other, where Sabal helps towards the development of underdeveloped breast. Another characteristic feature to use it is sore, tender breast with sharp or stinging type of pain. Fullness in the breast may be felt.

It can occur at the back, top or side of the head. Headache can be attended with vertigo. In some cases, dimness of vision is felt along with headache.

I am constipated after taking sabal serrulata for breast dev. Plz help me what should do now ?
Last October I have undergone TURP and after surgery in the initial stages of first 2 months I found myself very comfortable in the urination. And could get reasonably good night’s sleep. As per my Drs advise I have given a urine flow test after completing 3 months of post-surgery period. The flow results were surprised me because the post-surgery results were surprisingly reduced compare to pre surgery reports.
Now after visiting the surgeon with this report my Dr. suggested one small endoscopic surgery. At present I do not get straight 7 hours sleep & needs to visit wash room every two hours. I came across your video on the prostate enlargement & subsequent use Homeopathy medicine Sabal Serrulata Q. Let me know whether the medicine would help me overcome the problem of frequent urination. Please advise. Thank you.
Dr.Sharma, I had 4 to 5 drops of Sabal serulata felt dehydrated is there any side effect of it, shall I continue or to drop.
Using sabal serrulata mother tincture, 15 drops thrice daily. From three days suffering from loose motions. Just stool flow like water three four times. What I have to do.
I have BPH and my doctor has prescribed me for flomax (0.4mg) daily. It helps me to urinate normally, but I also have frequent urination specially in the night and have to get up every hour to urinate. For the last several years I have not had sleep more 2 hours uninterruptedly. Also Flomax causes dizziness. Someone suggested me Sabal Serrulate. Will that help me in both BPH and frequent urination. Please advise.
Thanks.

मुझे यूटीआई की समस्या है , मुझे कितनी मात्रा लेनी चाहिए
I have taken saw palmetto for about 20-25 years and was still diagnosed with BPH several years ago at age 80. I am currently taking two different prostate formulae, which include both saw palmetto and beta sistosterol. I am not seeing any improvement in my condition and still have the classic symptoms of BPH: frequent urination, sometimes hard to start urinating, sometimes dribbling, sometimes strong stream, no pain or pressure, etc. Am I able to take a homeopathic remedy while still taking 2 prostate formulae and a dozen other supplements?
Thank you.
Hi,
I am a male of 65 years, had difficulty urinating in the morning and would wake up 1 x at night.
I’ve had BPH for 3 years now , PSA has climbed but holding at 5. Saw urologist 3 years ago, I take Sandoz-Tamsulosincr 0.4 mg daily before bed which helps greatly with urination upon waking & sleeping through the night. Had prostate biopsy 6 months ago, all clear for cancer but having more difficulty holding an erection now and difficulty with ejaculation.
Have had High blood pressure for about 20 years and medicated with 10 mg Ramipril 2 x daily, app-hydro 12.5 mg 1x daily, Atelonol 50 mg 1 x daily and kms terrazosin 2mg 1 x daily.
Have had back surgery 20 years ago, disc-cotomy and fusion (failed ) L5 S1 constant pain in lower left region of the back. Have tried Sabal Serrulata in Mother tincture Q 30ml Schwabe with no noticeable difference. Any suggestion would be appreciated Tx
