Woman, aged 35.
First Consultation: May 15th, 2010

Case:
Jenny sought homeopathic treatment immediately after conventional diagnosis by her gynecologist and she never started conventional treatment. Together with PCOD, for which she didn’t present actual complaints apart from pain of pins and needles during ovulation and during menses, frequent and scanty menses and hot pain to slightest touch at nipples (even of clothing). She complained also about acne (which appeared a few months before the PCOD diagnosis) and stitching pain in the stomach (like pins and needles) accompanied by nausea, coming on between 3-4 p.m. and aggravated by drinking. Acne was pustular, worse on forehead, oily feeling on face but with scaly eruption especially on cheeks and forehead. Three weeks before seeking homeopathic consultation, Jenny developed urticaria on back of hands and feet, worse in the morning on waking and worse when bathing, but better for ice applications.
