Should we wear a mask and when?
What is the right way to use a mask?
There are no masks available at the shop, how do we go out without wearing one.
The most frequently asked questions by my patients.

Wearing masks is not inportant. Knowing WHEN and WHO should wear a mask is the most important thing.
You DONOT need to wear a mask all the time.

•Wear a mask only when u r in a crowded public place.
•When tending to a COVID -19 infected or suspected person
•when you are having the symptoms of cold cough and fever.
Follow the above given guidlines by the health ministry as to how to wear and dispose the mask.
Just buying and wearing a mask from anywhere(which are not sterlised and sold lose) because everyone is doing so doesnt solve the purpose, it may increase the risk of contamination if not used properly.

It is most required for the health professionals, paramedics, those working in close contact with the infected patients,those infected woth he covid-19 virus or suspected.

Use the resources judiciously and save them for the actual needy ones.
Donot follow the media blindly.
Always ask a responsible person if you are not aware of the facts
BE EDUCATED, BE HEALTHY

(CNN) When it comes to novel coronavirus protection, face masks are futile. There isn't a vaccine yet. So the best way to prevent transmission of the novel coronavirus is washing your hands -- thoroughly -- with soap and water, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And yes, there's a right way to wash your hands. It's something of an art form -- a timed, multistep process that can involve some light singing. https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/28/health/how-to-wash-hands-coronavirus-trnd/index.html

DAY 4 HYPOTHYROID

After PCOS, Hypothyroid is second most frequently seen condition among females in my last 10 yrs. practice. According to statistics, thyroid disorders are on the rise in India. Approximately 1 in 10 Indian adults suffer from hypothyroidism, a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones to meet the needs of the body. This condition is twice as prevalent in women as in men and is common among women of child-bearing age. (Source)
Some of the most common symptoms seen are fatigue, dry skin, weight gain, muscle pain, cramps, concentration difficulties, hair thinning, excess fluid in tissues and cold sensitivity.
Hypothyroidism is condition then the thyroid gland has abnormally low activity and there is insufficient thyroid hormone production. This results in retardation of growth and mental development. Moreover, if the thyroid gland is not functioning properly, autoimmune disorder may occur and at some patients the thyroid may develop several types of nodules and cancer.
Some of the main culprits of thyroid disorders are:
• Chronic stress
• Toxin overload
• Iodine deficiency
What Causes Thyroid Disease?

• One cause of thyroid disease is an autoimmune disorder. Antibodies present in the body itself attack the thyroid glands resulting in a condition named autoimmune thyroiditis which eventually destroys the thyroid gland.
• Another reason is physical and mental stress. Physical stress can be defined as stress on the physical body where it is not able to accommodate a lifestyle such as fast food, disturbed sleep patterns, and environmental risk factors.
• Mental stress can arise from work pressure, emotional weakness, and grief or family disputes. All of these factors result in the secretion of cortisol, the hormone which acts as a protective mechanism to stress.

Treatment:

Treatment for hypothyroidism focuses on supplementing the thyroid hormone. But this is just to replace the decreased secretion of thyroid hormone by the thyroid gland.

Homeopathy has a suitable effect on acting at the root cause of the problem and stimulating the thyroid gland to naturally normalize its hormone production.

In my practice i have seen cases of hypothyroid treated with homoeopathic remedies selected on the basis of detailed case taking and evaluation stimulates your thyroid gland to start producing adequate hormones. This done along with the thyroid hormone supplements with gradually tapering doses under a physician’s guidance which is then completely stopped.

Be Healthy, Be happy.

DAY 3 PCOS

Around two years ago, Miss Laxmi(name changed), 24 yrs age approached me with symptoms of delayed menstrual cycles (mostly only after taking hormone therapy), unexplained weight gain, painful pimples that leave scars and extra growth of hair on the chin. After going through the detailed investigation and careful examination I suggested her to go for sonography and thyroid checks. The reports suggested she suffered from PCOS.

After detailed case taking and based on her physicals, emotional, and psychological aspects she was treated with a constitutional homeopathic medicine.

A follow-up scan after 8 months of treatment showed no signs of PCOS and Laxmi experienced lesser delay in her menstrual cycle and without need of any hormone therapy.

A common question arising in each one’s mind would be what causes PCOS and how could it be avoided.

PCOS is common amongst women of age group 18-45 years. A statistical report by Futterweit, estimated that 50–75% of women with PCOS are unaware that they even have this syndrome.

PCOS is caused by the imbalance of hormones in the body. Anxiety and stress is the major cause which triggers the high cortisol and insulin levels to produce more testosterone by the ovaries. Due to which the process of egg maturation in ovaries is re****ed, hence the do not release from the ovaries forming small cysts in the ovaries which are seen in ultrasound imaging.

The most important thing for young ladies to know what situation to consider it as alarming and under what circumstances should they consult a doctor.

Common symptoms of PCOS include: Delayed or irregular periods, Excess bleeding with clots and pain during periods, extra facial hairs, Oily skin and acne, thinning of hair or baldness, weight gain and difficulty in conceiving.

Treatment: As such there is no cure for PCOS in modern medicine. Hormone therapy may temporarily regularize the menstrual cycle but the underlying syndrome still persists. However, the condition can be managed by regular exercise and healthy diet.

I would suggest homoeopathy as an option for cure of PCOS considering Homoeopathy has the certain benefits. Homeopathic treatment is tailored to the individual patients need. Having a prescription based on constitutional approach gives better results. Homeopathic treatment takes into account the presenting complaints as well as physical, emotional and genetic history which individualizes the case.

Be healthy, be happy.

DAY 2

Menopause occurs in every female at the age of 40s or 50s.
It is also called as ’Climacteric or change of life’
Menopause is defined as a lack of menstruation for one full year.

Most women first begin developing menopause symptoms about four years before their last period. But in few women, road towards menopause is not smooth and they experience various problems around the menopause period which is known as perimenopause. These problems are because of decreasing levels of female hormones like estrogen in body.

About 1% of women begin menopause before the age of 40, which is called premature menopause or primary ovarian insufficiency. About 5% of women undergo menopause between the ages of 40 and 45. This is referred to as early menopause.
Symptoms of menopause
* Hot flushes
* Night sweats
* Sleep Disturbances
* Weight gain especially around waist
* Light headedness (Dizziness)
* Dryness of skin
* Hair loss and thinning
* Bone problems
* Heart conditions
* Bladder problems
* Vaginal dryness
* Breast tenderness
* Extreme fatigue
* Mood swings

In some women menopause leads to fewer problems while in some it disrupt routine life by causing emotional, physical and psychological turmoil.
Menopause snatches away natural protection to female body which is provided by estrogen hormone and makes menopausal woman prone to increased risk of bone thinning, fragile fracture, osteoporosis, heart diseases.
Altered sensation, mood swings, bad body odor can drive her crazy. Sexual problems due to vaginal dryness and loss of libido can affect her marital life.
If these symptoms are significant enough to cause brawl in your interpersonal and social life, stop ignoring them and get Homeopathic help which can prove very helpful for you.

HOW HOMEOPATHY WORKS IN MENOPAUSE & ITS PROBLEMS
* A well chosen holistic homeopathic remedy works on the symptoms but on the entire constitution of the women, there by bringing harmony between the body and the mind.
* Homeopathy is natural, safe and without any side-effects, and one can enjoy complete freedom from MENOPAUSAL PROBLEMS.
* Homeopathy is equipped with vast range of powerful medicines which are competent enough to treat all psychosomatic cases in menopausal women to make their life delightful and pleasant.
