There was no abnormality in the thirst, perspiration, bowel movements and urination.
The patient is extremely chilly.
Mental state: Anxious person- about the health. Hypochondriasis. Anxiety is felt in the stomach and
then she develops a lot of negative thoughts. Fears eating- especially between meals.
Very sensitive and is hurt easily. This leads to brooding.
Mentally, she is very restless. Wants a change all the time. Likes to go out- dislikes staying at home
She desires company and loves to talk- is full of ideas. She gets attached to people very easily and
people find her as a person who understands them well. They also describe her as being very
co-operative.
At the same time, she is quite fastidious. She gets angered easily and has outbursts if her wishes are
not fulfilled. She weeps easily and is > consolation.
Sleep is disturbed from the least noise. She is usually > from catnaps. She dreams about her unfinished
work.
She is an intelligent lady who likes to learn new things. She also has a very good memory.
Past history: Vocal nodules, recurrent pharyngitis, bronchitis, broncho-pneumonia, herpes zoster.

February 20, 2000: ( LMP- 7-2-2000; USG- PCOD) Phos 1M, 4 doses
(twice a day x 2 days)
April 8, 2000: LMP- 7-3-2000. Urine pregnancy test +ve.
A subsequent ultrasonography showed a single live fetus in the uterus.
This patient was followed up throughout her pregnancy and was
treated with homoeopathic medicines for all the discomforts of
pregnancy.
She developed pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) in the seventh
month of her pregnancy, which was again treated with doses of
Phosphorus.
Even her labor was shortened with the use of the homeopathic medicine!
