EFFECTIVENESS OF INDIVIDUALIZED HOMOEOPATHIC TREATMENT USING LM POTENCIES IN THE MANAGEMENT OF LEUCORRHOEA: A PROSPECTIVE CLINICAL STUDY

Abstract

Leucorrhoea is a common gynaecological complaint among women of reproductive age and is
associated with significant physical discomfort and psychological distress. Conventional treatment
often provides temporary relief and is frequently associated with recurrence. Background: This
study evaluated the effectiveness of individualized homoeopathic treatment using LM (fifty-
millesimal) potencies in the management of leucorrhoea. Methods: A prospective clinical study
was conducted among 70 female patients aged 17–45 years diagnosed with leucorrhoea. Remedies
were selected based on the totality of symptoms and prescribed in appropriate LM potency. Patients
were followed at regular intervals and outcomes were categorized as cured, improved, or status
quo. Results: The highest incidence was observed in the 17–25 years age group (40.0%), followed
by 26–35 years (37.1%). Married women constituted 58.6% of the study population. Complete cure
was observed in 64.3% of patients, 31.4% showed improvement, and 4.3% remained unchanged,
giving an overall therapeutic response rate of 95.7%. Kreosotum and Alumina were the most
frequently prescribed remedies. Conclusions: Individualized homoeopathic treatment using LM
potencies demonstrated high effectiveness in the management of leucorrhoea and may serve as a
safe and holistic therapeutic option for women suffering from this condition.
