Case of pelvic inflammatory disease managed with individualized homoeopathic treatment

Abstract

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the female genital tract, often leading to pelvic pain, vaginal discharge, and menstrual disturbances. Conventional management with antibiotics frequently faces limitations such as recurrence and antimicrobial resistance. Homoeopathy, through its individualized holistic approach, offers an alternative method of treatment. This article presents the case of a 25-year-old female with complaints of chronic lower abdominal pain, profuse thick white vaginal discharge, and headache. Detailed case-taking revealed significant physical, mental, and emotional characteristics, which guided repertorial analysis and final prescription. Sepia 1M was prescribed based on the totality of symptoms, resulting in marked improvement in both local and general complaints. This case highlights the scope of homoeopathy in the management of PID and emphasizes the importance of individualized remedy selection.
