What Is PCOS or Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS)?
Polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS) — formerly known as polycystic o***y syndrome (PCOS) — is a hormonal imbalance that occurs when the ovaries (the organ that produces and releases eggs) produce unusually high levels of hormones called androgens. This causes the female reproductive hormones to become imbalanced. As a
result, women with PMOS often have irregular menstrual cycles, missed periods and unpredictable ovulation. Small cysts (fluid-filled sacs with immature eggs) may be visible on the ovaries on ultrasound due to lack of ovulation (anovulation).

What is the main cause of PMOS?
The exact cause of PMOS is unknown. There’s evidence that genetics play a role. Several other factors, most importantly obesity, also play a role in causing PMOS:
• Higher levels of androgens: High androgen levels prevent the ovaries from releasing eggs, which causes irregular menstrual cycles.
• Insulin resistance: An increase in insulin levels causes the ovaries to make and release male hormones (androgens). Increased male hormones suppress ovulation and contribute to other symptoms of PMOS.
• Low-grade inflammation: Women with PMOS tend to have chronic low-grade inflammation.

What are the signs of PMOS?
The most common signs and symptoms of PMOS include:
• Irregular periods: Abnormal menstruation involves missing periods or not having a period at all. It may also involve heavy bleeding during periods.
• Abnormal hair growth: Excess facial hair or experience heavy hair growth on your arms, chest and abdomen (hirsutism).
• Acne: PMOS can cause acne, especially on the back, chest and face. This acne may continue past your teenage years and may be difficult to treat.
• Obesity: Women with PMOS have obesity and have trouble maintaining a weight that’s healthy for them.
• Darkening of the skin: You may get patches of dark skin, especially in the folds of your neck, armpits, groin, and under your breasts. This is known as acanthosis nigricans.
• Cysts: Many women with PMOS have ovaries that appear larger or with many cysts on ultrasound.
• Skin tags: Skin tags are little flaps of extra skin. They’re often found in your armpits or on your neck.
• Thinning hair: Women with PMOS may lose patches of hair on their head or start to bald.
• Infertility: PMOS is the most common cause of female infertility. Not ovulating regularly or frequently can result in not being able to conceive.

How is polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome diagnosed?
In most cases, your doctor will diagnose PMOS on the basis of -
• Your symptoms and medical history
• Perform a physical exam, looking specifically for excess facial hair, hair loss, acne,
discolored skin and skin tags.
• Order blood tests to check hormone levels and glucose levels.
• Perform a pelvic ultrasound to look at your ovaries, check the thickness of your
uterine lining and look for other causes of abnormal bleeding.

How is PMOS treated?
Conventional treatment includes -
• Hormonal birth control
• Insulin-sensitizing medicine
• Medications to block androgens
• Lifestyle changes: Eating a nutritious diet and maintaining a body weight that’s healthy
for you can have a positive effect on insulin levels.
• Drugs to induce ovulation (releasing an egg)
• Surgery: A surgical procedure can help restore ovulation by removing tissue in your
ovaries that produces androgen hormones.
• In vitro fertilization (IVF): This is an option for women with PMOS when medication
doesn’t help with ovulation.

Homeopathic management includes -
• Stabilizing the hormones so that ovulation occurs and menstrual cycles regularize
• Lifestyle modifications to maintain healthy body weight and glucose levels
• Holistic treatment of all other symptoms - acne, hair thinning, body hair growth, mood
swings etc
• Resolution of cysts and preventing recurrence
• Conceiving naturally
• Overall holistic health and wellness

What is Contact Dermatitis?

Contact dermatitis is a rash on your skin that develops when you come into contact with something you’re allergic to or something that irritated your skin. Dermatitis is the medical term for skin irritation or swelling (inflammation).

What are the types of contact dermatitis?

There are two types of contact dermatitis:
•Allergic contact dermatitis: Your body has an allergic reaction to a substance (allergen) that it doesn’t like. Common allergens include jewelry metals (like nickel), cosmetic products, fragrances and preservatives. It can take several days after exposure for an itchy rash to develop.

•Irritant contact dermatitis: This painful rash tends to come on quickly in response to an irritating substance. Common irritants include detergents, soap, cleaners and acid. Irritant contact dermatitis occurs more often than allergic contact dermatitis.

Who does contact dermatitis affect?
Contact dermatitis can affect anyone at any age, from a baby to an adult. Skin reactions can occur after a single exposure or after repeated exposures over time.

You might experience contact dermatitis more often if you have sensitive skin or chronic skin conditions.

What does contact dermatitis look like?
Symptoms of contact dermatitis include a rash on your skin that’s:

•Red to purple or darker than your natural skin tone.
•Swollen, hive-like or elevated from the skin surrounding it.
•Bumpy with a small cluster of pimples or blisters.
•Oozing fluid or pus.
•Painful with a burning or stinging sensation.
•Flaky, scaling, itchy skin.
•Scratching your rash could break open your skin and cause a wound. If this wound becomes infected, it will look red and crusty and may be painful or leak pus.

The most common places that people experience symptoms include:
•Face, neck and scalp.
•Lips, eyelids and cheeks.
•Hands, fingers and arms.
•Genitals (p***s, va**nal area and v***a).
•Armpits.
•Feet and legs.

What causes contact dermatitis?

Physical contact with an allergen or an irritant causes contact dermatitis.

If your body doesn’t like something that touches your skin, your immune system responds. When you see your skin swell or become inflamed, that’s a sign that your white blood cells are responding to the allergen or irritant, which can cause an itchy rash.

The most common causes of allergic contact dermatitis include:
•Plants or parts of a plant (botanicals),
•Skin care products with fragrances.
•Metals, such as nickel.
•Medications, including antibiotics.
•Preservatives or chemicals

The most common causes of irritant contact dermatitis include:
•Acids.
•Cleaning products.
•Body fluids, including urine and saliva.
•Plants, like poinsettias and peppers.
•Hair dyes.
•Nail polish remover or other solvents.
•Paints and varnishes.
•Soaps or detergents.
•Resins, plastics and epoxies.

How is contact dermatitis diagnosed?
Your healthcare provider will diagnose contact dermatitis after taking a complete medical history, performing a physical exam and reviewing your symptoms.

There isn’t a test to identify the cause of irritant contact dermatitis, but your provider will ask questions to learn more about your environment, things you’ve come into contact with and the location and size of your rash.

These questions could include:
•How long have you had a rash?
•Did you make any changes to your normal skin care routine?
•Did you come into contact with any new plants, materials or chemicals?
•Do you have regular contact with any irritants or chemicals?

For allergic contact dermatitis, your provider may offer testing, including a patch test to confirm a diagnosis.

How is contact dermatitis treated?
•Conventional treatment could include:
•Avoidance: If you identify what caused the rash, avoid or minimize exposure to it.
•Taking medicine to relieve swelling and itching: Medicines could include over-the-counter anti-itch creams, topical or oral antihistamines, corticosteroid creams or prednisone, an oral steroid. Immunosuppressant medications are uncommon.

What is the Homeopathic scope of treatment?
•Immediate relief of swelling and pain in acute cases
•In chronic cases, Homeopathy helps to heal the long standing rash/ wound and reduce the sensitivity to the particular trigger.

Are there complications associated with contact dermatitis?
Aside from the rash, uncommon, serious complications can happen when you have an allergy to something. Complications of an allergic reaction include:
•Hives: Discolored, raised, itchy skin welts.
•Swelling (angioedema): An area of your skin that’s larger than it was the day before. Swelling occurs deep under your skin.
•Anaphylaxis: An allergic reaction that includes your airways, causing them to swell and potentially close.Anaphylaxis is uncommon but it’s a medical emergency.

What is hepatitis A?
Hepatitis A (Hep A) is liver inflammation caused by the hepatitis A virus. Hepatitis A is very contagious. This means that you can easily catch the virus from someone or give it to someone else. You are most contagious soon after you are infected and before symptoms appear.

What causes hepatitis A?
Hepatitis A is caused by infection with the hepatitis A virus. This can happen through person-to-person contact, or through eating or drinking contaminated food or water.

Symptoms of Hepatitis A -
The hepatitis A virus is usually in your system for 2 to 6 weeks before symptoms appear. Some people never have symptoms. If symptoms do appear, they can appear suddenly and may include:
•Nausea
•Vomiting
•Jaundice (the yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes)
•Low-grade fever (fever up to 102°F)
•Fatigue
•Pain in your abdomen, especially on your right side
•Dark-colored urine
•Loss of appetite
•Muscle pain

How is hepatitis A treated conventionally?
There is no specific medicine to treat or cure hepatitis A. If you have the virus, your body will eventually get rid of the infection on its own. You probably will feel sick for a few months before you begin to feel better.

How can Homeopathy help?
•Boosts immunity and shortens the duration of the infection, resulting in faster recovery
•Prevents complications like liver failure

Do’s and dont’s
•To help your liver heal, you should get plenty of rest, eat a balanced diet and avoid alcohol
•Talk with your doctor before you take any prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, or supplements.

•You should also wash your hands with soap and warm water before and after cooking, after using the bathroom, and after changing diapers.
•Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly before eating and avoid raw or undercooked meat and fish.

What is a urinary tract infection?
A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection in any part of the urinary system. Women are at greater risk of developing a UTI than are men.

What are the symptoms?
•A strong urge to urinate that doesn't go away
•A burning feeling when urinating
•Urinating often, and passing small amounts of urine
•Urine that looks cloudy and/ or urine that appears red, bright pink or cola-colored — signs of blood in the urine
•Strong-smelling urine
•Pelvic pain, in women — especially in the center of the pelvis and around the area of the p***c bone

Can UTIs cause complications?
Some complications of repeated UTIs include -
•Permanent kidney damage from a kidney infection due to an untreated UTI.
•Delivering a low birth weight or premature infant when a UTI occurs during pregnancy.
•A narrowed urethra in men from having repeated infections of the urethra.
•Sepsis, a potentially life-threatening complication of an infection. This is a risk especially if the infection travels up the urinary tract to the kidneys.

Role of homeopathy in managing UTIs -
•Symptomatic relief in pain, burning urination, frequency of urination, fever etc during an acute attack of urinary tract infection.
•Prevention of repeated UTIs and their complications.
•Strengthening the body’s natural defense mechanisms.
•Holistic wellness by mitigating underlying risk factors like Diabetes, renal stones, prostrate enlargement, STDs etc alongwith mental and emotional wellbeing.

Are there any ways to prevent UTIs?
These steps may help lower the risk of UTIs:
•Drink plenty of liquids, especially water. That leads to urinating more often — allowing bacteria to be flushed from the urinary tract before an infection can begin.
•Try cranberry juice. Studies that look into whether cranberry juice prevents UTIs aren’t final. However, drinking cranberry juice is likely not harmful.
•Wipe from front to back. Do this after urinating and after a bowel movement. It helps prevent the spread of bacteria from the a**s to the va**na and urethra.
•Empty your bladder soon after having s*x. Also drink a full glass of water to help flush bacteria.
•Avoid potentially irritating feminine products. Using them in the ge***al area can irritate the urethra.
•Change your birth control method. Diaphragms, unlubricated condoms or condoms treated with spermicide can contribute to bacterial growth.

What is Acne?
Your skin has tiny holes called pores that can become blocked by oil, bacteria, dead skin
cells, and dirt. When this occurs, you may develop a pimple, sometimes also called a zit or blemish.

Acne is very common. In fact, research estimates that 9.4 percent of people worldwide have acne. While acne doesn’t pose a serious risk to your overall health, it can still be painful, particularly if you have severe acne. Over time, acne might also cause scarring.

Acne also contributes to emotional distress. Acne and acne scars on your face and other visible body locations can affect self-esteem and self-confidence, and they can even contribute to feelings of anxiety or depression.

What causes acne?
Acne occurs when the pores of your skin become blocked with oil, dead skin, or bacteria.
Each pore of your skin opens to a follicle. The follicle is made up of a hair and a sebaceous (oil) gland. The oil gland releases sebum (oil), which travels up the hair, out of the pore, and onto your skin. Sebum helps keeps your skin lubricated and soft.

One or more mishaps in this lubrication process can contribute to acne.
Acne might occur, for example, when:
• your follicles produce too much oil
• dead skin cells accumulate in your pores
• bacteria build up in your pores
Any of these concerns can lead to pimples, which develop when bacteria grow in a clogged pore and the oil can’t escape.

Role of Homeopathy -
• Improving systemic hormone balance
• Balancing oil production
• Preventing acne
• Treating the existing pimples and prventing scars.
• Improving the skin texture
• Treating the pre-existing conditions which can cause acne - PCOD, menopause etc with holistic improvement.

Additionally, you can try these at-home tips to help clear up acne and help prevent future
breakouts:
• Apply tea tree oil.
• Apply aloe vera.
• Use a honey mask.
• Refresh your face with green tea.
• Avoid touching your face.
• Never squeeze or pick pimples. It makes scarring more likely, and it can also
spread bacteria and excess oil.

Imagine stepping outside and immediately your skin starts to burn, itch, and develop painful rashes within minutes. Sun allergy/photodermatitis isn’t just about discomfort, but coping with a debilitating disorder which limits your activities and inhibits your freedom. However, with the right treatment, sun allergy can be completely cured, as the case pictures demonstrate.

What is photodermatitis?
Photosensitive dermatitis is a condition where a person’s skin develops unusual reactions, such as eczematous eruptions, in response to UV radiation, visible light, or both in sunlight and artificial light sources. Photosensitive refers to a reaction to light, while dermatitis is the term for inflammation of the skin.

Can it affect me?
It can affect people of all ages and skin types and occurs due to an abnormal reaction to some component of the electromagnetic spectrum of sunlight, which includes UV and visible light. People with photosensitive dermatitis typically cannot expose themselves to direct sunlight and even some forms of artificial light without their skin reacting.

What are the symptoms?
Skin eruptions appear at sun-exposed parts of the skin, such as the outer part of the arms and hands, the chest, and the back and side of the neck.
The condition may also resemble an exaggerated form of sunburn, but the reactions occur even with less intense light exposure.

Conventional treatment and management -
The main form of treatment for photosensitive dermatitis will typically include prevention methods - such as using sun protection, avoiding contact with any known allergens, and stopping any photosensitizing drugs if possible.
Staying inside, fully covering the skin, using broad-spectrum sunscreens, and taking photoprotective medications are some other measures.
To treat any eczematous reactions, dermatologists suggest emollients and topical steroids. In cases of severe dermatitis, doctors may use stronger medications, such as oral corticosteroids or immunosuppressive agents.

Role of Homeopathic treatment-
In acute flare-ups, Homeopathic remedies can effectively alleviate symptoms such as pain, swelling, and redness. These remedies work by stimulating the body's self-healing mechanisms, helping to reduce inflammation and discomfort.

In the long term, Homeopathy aims to reduce sensitivity to light, a hallmark of photodermatitis. By addressing the underlying imbalances within the body, Homeopathic treatment can help strengthen the body's resilience to environmental triggers like sunlight.

It's important to consult with a qualified homeopathic practitioner for personalized treatment tailored to your specific needs and symptoms. Homeopathy offers holistic support in managing photo dermatitis and improving overall well-being.
