Times have changed. Women are often well-informed about their particular condition and are not afraid to disagree with their doctors' recommendations. Many women no longer hesitate to refuse what they consider to be potentially harmful drugs, surgeries, and interventions and often search for less toxic and more gentle alternatives. There are many women's conditions for which conventional medicine does not have an effective, universally acceptable, or permanent solution. Take endometriosis for example. Conventional research has not yet definitively found the cause of this problem, but the results of the orthodox treatments may be worse than the original symptoms. Standard interventions typically include one or more surgeries and suppression of ovulation by drugs that may only be used for short periods of time due to their severe side effects. Women who take these medications are thrown into a temporary state of menopause complete with hot flashes and bone loss. Conventional medicine offers no sure cure for PMS, miscarriages, infertility, and for breast, uterine, and, particularly, ovarian cancer. Even simple conditions like bladder infections are treated with antibiotics rather than addressing the underlying cause in order to prevent recurrences. Add to this scenario a heightened awareness among women of the body-mind-spirit connection. The search for a quick fix is being replaced, in many cases, by a desire for a deeply effective, long-lasting, holistic approach. Women are no longer satisfied with being treated merely as bodies, but are insisting that the rest of their beings are honored, addressed, and healed as well. This is where homeopathic medicine comes in. Safe even for pregnant women and newborns, so effective in many cases that one dose can last for months at a time, and a form of healing that genuinely addresses each woman as an integrated whole. Homeopathy is a user-friendly type of medicine. A wide number of acute conditions including bladder infections, vaginal infections, and morning sickness can respond beautifully and rapidly to self-treatment. More chronic conditions, such as PMS,Tumors, hot flashes, and menstrual problems of all kinds, can be helped, sometimes dramatically, under the care of an experienced homeopathic physician or practitioner. This web site offers a wealth of practical information.Dr. Ila Kathuria is one of the most well-known women homeopaths in this country. she draws patients from all over the India and abroad.

Women Health FAQ
Q. Can homeopathy help me avoid surgery for uterine fibroids?
A. I would estimate that a good 90 percent of the women I have treated for uterine fibroids have not gone on to have hysterectomies. The bleeding, frequent urination, and pain are generally handled with homeopathy.
Q. Will homeopathy also help for depression and anxiety?
A. Homeopathy is unquestionably the best therapy I have ever found for depression, anxiety, and other mental and emotional problems. The effects are lasting, you will not suffer the side effects of conventional psychiatric medications, and healing occurs at the deepest possible level.
Q. Are homeopathic medicines really safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding?
A. Homeopathy is completely safe during pregnancy. If, however, a miscarriage is imminent, homeopathy will most likely not prevent it from occurring. They are perfectly safe during pregnancy, while nursing, and for newborns. I have treated one-day old babies with homeopathy.
Q. Can I still be treated homeopathically if I choose to take hormones or fertility drugs?
A.Yes. There is no problem combining these treatments. Since a homeopath will evaluate all of your symptoms, rather than just your hormonal functioning, she should still be able to tell when she has found the medicine for you. Once that medicine has been found and you are feeling better, you may even choose to make a different decision regarding your drugs. However, even if you continue taking hormone replacement indefinitely, homeopathy can still work.
Q . What if I have other physical problems like headaches or asthma?
A.One medicine really can treat all of you. The same medicine that improves your gynecologic symptomsshould also help your headaches and asthma substantially.
Q.Can I really find an alternative to antibiotics for my bladder infections?
A.Not only should homeopathy be able to help you through your acute bladder infections without having to resort to antibiotics, but it should prevent future bladder infections, or at least diminish their frequency and severity. I also make other natural recommendations for bladder infections, in addition to homeopathy.
