A 51-year-old female consulted us for complaint of excessive hot flushes and irregular menses since past eight months.

She had been to a gynecologist who advised her to go on Hormonal therapy but she chose to try Homoeopathy instead.

On detailed questioning, she mentioned that during the episodes of these hot flushes, she had a sensation of hot iron running through her veins.

She also added that since the last fifteen days she was getting these episodes three to four times a day. She was worse with the sweat and cold bathing gave her momentary relief.

During these episodes, she also had palpitations and severe anxiety. Those attacks lasted for about thirty minutes. Post the attacks she complained of severe weakness.

Based upon her symptoms, we gave her the Homoeopathic remedy Naja. The frequency of the hot flushes reduced within one week of medications. She also mentioned that her weakness had reduced considerably.

She showed gradual but substantial recovery and was relieved of her complaints.
