Menstrual disorders are a common health concern among females of reproductive age and may significantly affect physical, psychological, and social well-being. A community-based analytical survey was conducted on 24 November 2022 in Hanuman Nagar to collect statistical data on the prevalence of menstrual disorders and to create awareness regarding menstrual hygiene. The survey was organized by the Department of Community Medicine of Motiwala (National) Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital. Fourth-year BHMS students participated in the survey and collected data using a structured questionnaire through a Google Form after obtaining informed consent from participants. The survey included females from pubertal age to postmenopausal groups and involved general examination, data recording, and awareness sessions on menstrual health and hygiene practices. Participants were educated about menstrual cycle phases, appropriate care during menstruation, and proper disposal of sanitary products. The results indicated that the majority of women had regular menstrual cycles, while a smaller proportion reported irregular cycles. Most women used sanitary pads, though some relied on reusable cloth. Findings also highlighted the prevalence of symptoms such as dysmenorrhea, premenstrual syndrome, and irritability during menstruation. The study emphasizes the importance of community awareness, hygiene education, and early identification of menstrual disorders to prevent complications and promote reproductive health among women.

Insomnia is a prevalent sleep disorder characterized by difficulty in initiating or maintaining sleep, leading to fatigue, reduced productivity, and negative health outcomes. Conventional management includes short-term hypnotics, psychological, and behavioral therapies, yet many cases remain untreated or self-managed with over-the-counter medications. Homoeopathy, with its individualized and holistic approach, has been explored as an alternative therapy. Historical accounts, such as Dr. Kent’s conversion to homoeopathy following his wife’s recovery from sleeplessness, highlight its perceived efficacy. Although literature documents various homoeopathic remedies—such as Aconite, Belladonna, Coffea cruda, Nux vomica, Opium, Avena sativa, Kali bromatum, and Passiflora incarnata—clinical trials remain limited. Remedies are prescribed based on specific etiologies including anxiety, stress, pain, cardiac or respiratory conditions, old age, substance use, and neurological disorders. Homoeopathy emphasizes individualized treatment, aiming to restore natural sleep without dependency. This review underscores the potential role of homoeopathy in insomnia management while noting the need for more rigorous clinical evidence.

Emotional stress may be defined as response to a negative change in a child’s life but, excessive stress can affect the way a child thinks, act and feels. As per the epidemiology, the orphan-hood condition is very much prevalent in the children deprived of parental support, love and affection. In the orphan house the individual attention is rare as other children are also housed at same place, thus it becomes important to study the emotional status of these children. In this study we would like to see the role of homoeopathic medicines in emotional status. Keywords – Emotional stress, Children s Emotional Management Scale, Homoeopathy. Objective- Primary objectives –To identify the effectiveness of homoeopathic medicines in the problem of emotional stress in the orphan children using scale. Secondary objectives –To assess the problems of emotional stress in children aged 5 to 15 years in the orphanage using the scale. Study Design – Prospective Case series. Materials and Method – 15 children from the Adharashram with emotional stress were recruited and followed up for minimum period of 6 months. Children’s Emotional Management Scale (CEMS) was used for the assessment of emotional status of the children. According to the screening criteria 15 students were selected for the study. Trained homoeopathic physician prescribed individualised homoeopathic similimum and again the patient were evaluated for the improvement of emotional status on CEMS. Result –After prescribing homoeopathic medicines in children having emotional stress, we found out that 87% of the cases are improved and 13% of the cases are not improved. N is equal to no. of cases (n=15), whereas d represents differences of pre and post score(d=134), d bar equals to sum of difference divided by no. of cases which came as=8.93, sum of difference(S) is root of pre and post score divided by no. cases minus one which came as 4.55. The SE of difference is dum of difference divided by root of no. of cases which came to be 1.17. Test statistics mean difference divided by SE, which is 7.63. Further our T value is greater than the table value of t (2.15). Hence, we accept the hypothesis that Homoeopathic medicines is effective in coping the emotional stress in orphan children of age group of 5-15 years. Conclusion – According to our study, homoeopathic medicines were effective in coping emotional stress in orphan children. The population under study were screened and it was found that 73% (anger – 20%, sadness- 6.6%, worry- 3%) of the children aged 5-15 years suffer from emotional stress in the orphanage, according to the CEMS scale. Hence, emotional stress is prevalent condition in the studied population.

Cervical spondylosis is a common degenerative condition affecting the cervical spine, characterized by progressive degeneration of intervertebral discs, facet joints, and surrounding structures. It commonly presents with symptoms such as neck pain, stiffness, restricted movement, radiating pain to the upper limbs, numbness, dizziness, and balance disturbances. With advancing age, the prevalence of cervical spondylosis increases significantly, making it a major contributor to disability and reduced quality of life. Conventional management generally includes physiotherapy, analgesics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants, and in severe cases surgical intervention. Homoeopathy, based on the principle of similars, offers an individualized therapeutic approach aimed at relieving symptoms and improving functional capacity without suppressing the natural healing process. The present prospective case series study was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of homoeopathic medicines in reducing neck pain and disability among patients suffering from cervical spondylosis. The Neck Pain and Disability Scale (NPAD) was used as the primary assessment tool to measure the severity of neck pain and its impact on daily activities. The study aimed to observe symptomatic improvement following individualized homoeopathic treatment and to assess changes in NPAD scores. Homoeopathic remedies were selected based on totality of symptoms, individual constitution, and miasmatic background. The study intends to contribute to the limited clinical evidence available regarding the role of homoeopathy in the management of cervical spondylosis and to highlight its potential as a complementary therapeutic option for reducing pain and improving functional ability.
