  • Abstract:
  • Leucorrhoea is a common gynaecological complaint in which excessive vaginal discharge may be accompanied by weakness, backache and local pathology such as cervical erosion. In homoeopathy the discharge is not treated alone; its quality, modalities and concomitants are individualised and matched to a similar remedy. Case presentation A 32-year-old married female presented with complaintsof leucorrhoea. The discharge was yellow, profuse, ropy, stringy and tenacious in character. The leucorrhoea was associated with a marked feeling of weakness and exhaustion, suggesting that the prolonged discharge was debilitating to the patient. She also complained of backache accompanying the leucorrhoea. On local examination clinical assessment, cervical erosion was noted. Along with the genital symptoms, the patient reported forgetfulness and a peculiar sensation of emptiness with weakness in the stomach. The totality showed Hydrastis canadensis prominently covering the characteristic symptoms, particularly the peculiar nature of the leucorrhoeal discharge and its associated weakness.
