For pcos try coriander and mustard seed and moringa leaf.
The coriander seed can be used on food. I used a teaspoon or more per day last month and my period was lighter.
I was also using moringa leaf powder and mustard seed powder occasionally.
The moringa and mustatd were mixed 1 tablespoon each with an equal amount of fresh lemon juice and a small cup of water.
The bleeding has been less and the abdominal discomfort is improved. The pcos seems to be from over indulging in chocolate.
Garlic helps somewhat, too.
Cedar and sage might interest you.

Regarding the trigger finger issue if the borax lotion does not remedy it, I have had two reports that melatonin lotion (ML) helped that problem, but I have no idea if either report had an actual diagnosis of "trigger finger". Here is how to make melatonin lotion and a long list of 50 health problems that people have reported benefit from ML if you are interested :

Wow, you have a lot going on! I imagine it is overwhelming to consider where to begin. Earth Clinic has so many stories of healing and so many remedies to consider. I am glad you are here!
My first thought is coconut oil for the sinus issues - if you can tolerate consuming a Tablespoon three times a day for a couple of weeks. Also, reducing/avoiding dairy products especially ice cream, unfortunately, as it is a common aggravator of sinus issues.
If you are taking pain meds for your pain, that can cause tinnitus or make it worse. One Tylenol or ibuprofen pill will cause a flare up with my tinnitus. Read about turmeric for pain on this site. It could help a number of issues.
Reducing/eliminating sugar helps many problems.
Have you seen a doctor? I would recommend getting a baseline if not, and ruling out any serious concerns. Get your vitamin D checked if you can.
Check out this page on wellness - there are some pleasant ways to improve overall health! https://www.earthclinic.com/remedies/health-and-wellness-tips.html
I don't want to suggest too many things at once. Try a couple of things for a week or two and see how it goes and report back.

Most newer human studies have used from 8 mg/day up to 24 mg/day of Astaxanthin, but with all things you try or test, your doctor will need to approve and supervise your use of astaxanthin since you are in stage 4 CKD. I still use a 24 mg liposomal form of Astaxanthin and have used it for years to increase endurance as I wrote about here a few years ago :

When you discuss it with your doctor, see if he will consider the 24 mg dose.

I’m reaching out to see if anyone has insight or experience with natural health protocols that may support my daughter’s situation. She is 20 years old and has been dealing with melanoma for the past 4 years. She goes in for full-body checks every 3 months, and at her last two appointments, new moles were found and removed. Each one has come back as atypical, with the most recent biopsy confirming melanoma.
Over the past 4 years, she has had 4 separate moles test positive for melanoma. I’m feeling very lost and unsure of the next steps. Part of me wonders if this could be connected to her immune system or possibly hormone related.
Has anyone else experienced something similar, or do you know of supportive approaches or recommendations that could help alongside her medical care? Any advice or resources would mean so much.
Thank you in advance.

There were two reasons for the lotion in borax lotion. For some people borax water can have a drying effect on the skin. The other reason is that borax is poorly absorbed through the skin and apparently Cetaphil and some other lotions have ingredients that enhance skin penetration. So the lotion seems to eliminate those two problems as simply as possible.

As I mentioned in a previous reply, it is the boron content of borax that causes mastalgia. So boron itself is the cause, but perhaps lowering the borax dose may help relieve the mastalgia.
Regarding the dry skin issue as a side effect of borax water, I have a friend who I wrote about that had a somewhat similar issue with oral borax creating a stair step pattern of dry skin on her skin. Since her arthritis pain was mainly apparent in her hands, she stopped oral borax and switched to borax lotion which I made for her to test and it completely relieved all pain in her hands in three weeks. With borax lotion she had no more stair step dry skin issues. Here is a link to her story and how to make borax lotion :

Borax lotion (BL) works fairly quickly in the hands because they are thin, but likely not as fast in thicker joints.

Hi everyone, I’m going through a mix of health concerns and would really appreciate any insights. My diastolic pressure has been on the higher side, and I’ve been experiencing weird tinnitus (ringing in the ears), sinus problems, and throbbing pain in my left thigh. I’m also overweight, and on top of that I’m noticing hair fall and bad breath
