Reason for use

By whom was this remedy introduced ?

By Dr. Payne, of Bath, Me., published in Transactions of the American Institute for 1867 and 1870, also Hale's New Remedies .

What is the plant, when should it be gathered and how is the tincture made ?

It is the Wild Tiger Lily . The fresh plant gathered when in flower is treated in the same manner as described under Gelsemium . The tincture is orange colored.

What are the characteristic uterine symptoms of Lilium ?

A bearing down sensation in the region of the uterus and vagina as if everything would press out, and the patient presses the vulva with the hand to relieve these symptoms. Soreness in pelvic region. It is very useful in ovarian neuralgia with sharp lancinating pains worse on left side, frequently extending to mammae. Worse walking.

How does Sepia compare here ?

In Sepia the patient crosses the legs to prevent protrusion. There are more hysterical symptoms under Lilium and the ovarian pains are more intense.

What are the heart symptoms of Lilium ?

Pain in the heart as if grasped by a vise awakening the patient suddenly, fluttering about the heart and uneasiness. Functional affections worse lying on left side. Nervous palpitation associated with uterine affections.
