subjectAbstract

A 49-year-old widow with adenomyosis and multiple uterine fibroids developed recurrent urinary retention with hydronephrosis and required continuous catheterization for two months. She was advised surgery but chose homeopathic care at Dr Batra’s. Based on marked sexual suppression, emotional trauma, anxiety, and urinary symptoms, Conium maculatum 200C was prescribed constitutionally. Within 7 days she regained normal urination, and for the next 40 days no catheter was required. This case illustrates the effectiveness of individualized homeopathy in fibroid-related urinary retention.
