ANSWERS FROM KAREN
QUESTION: My son is 13 years old and has a problem of bed wetting. I worry now because
he is getting old and is embarrassed by this as he cannot even go on holidays with schoolmates and friends. Any herbal treatment you may suggest. I have taken him to urologists in
vain.

ANSWER: There are several herbs that have traditionally been used for bedwetting. Shepherd's Purse, Uva Ursi, Plantain and thyme. Also, watermelon is supposed to be very effective.
