Abnormal uterine bleeding and its homoeopathic approach

Abstract

Many women have variations in their menstrual cycles such as changes in frequency, duration, amount of flow or spotting between the periods. This Abnormal Uterine Bleeding is common debilitating condition in women. It can occur between Menarche to Menopause in Ovulatory or Anovulatory cycles. Many structural causes like polyps, fibroids; functional and coagulopathies can lead to abnormal uterine bleeding. Excessive Menstrual Bleeding has several adverse effects including Anaemia, Iron deficiency and reduced quality of life. It affects medical and social health of women. Medical management is the preferred initial approach for hemo-dynamically stable patients to avoid surgical risks and preserve fertility. Knowledge of nature of individual sickness is necessary to prescribe and this depends upon study of symptoms prior to the pathology. Hahnemannian Homeopathy supplied a law to knit together the two branches of medical knowledge and has thereby put the art of medicine on a scientific basis.
