CASE NUMBER 1
This is a case of a 30yr old lady. She conceived 2yrs after her marriage. Unfortunately it was a tubal pregnancy and had to undergo left tubectomy. After that she did not conceive for a long period of 12 yrs. All the investigations were normal. She had tried various modes of treatment but all in vain and had given up the hope of conceiving, when one of her family friends forced her to consult me. She came along with her husband. The couples were not hopeful about the treatment and they were not cooperating at all. When I started the case taking I found the husband getting restless. He was constantly interfering and I could not obtain any relevant symptoms to base my prescription on. But I could get an interesting family history, which I found significant.
Her mother was having chronic U T I and chronic cervicits. I presumed a sycotic trait in her. The homoeopathic philosophy says that if there is a block in the constitution the harmonious flow of vital force is prevented and so the cure. I prescribed Medorrhinum 10M 2D and sac lac for one month. In the next visit I found her looking very excited, with a beaming face, reported that she was missing her periods, which was very regular till then. The pregnancy test done was positive. Here let me reveal a clue to you, think of Medorrhinum if you suspect a family history P I D.

CASE NUMBER 2
A 35 yr old lady consulted me for a highly painful and sensitive corn on her left heel. The peculiarity of the pain was that it was of burning type. As a routine procedure I got further details from her and found that she had only one child, he is now 15yrs. Please keep in mind the age of the patient. She is 35, and her husband 48, a difference of 13 years. After the first delivery she did not conceive again. In this case too all the investigations revealed nothing abnormal. As in the earlier case she too had given up all hopes of conceiving again after trying various modalities of treatment for a considerable period, and had stopped all treatments for the same. Her husband is working abroad and they are together for a period of 3 months in a year. Only 30 days were left for him to return to Dubai. One relevant information I got was, she had tubercular adenitis before her marriage. Here my prescription was Tuberculinum 1M. Tuberculinum made a lot of changes in her. Her cycles were always regular but the flow was only for a day. After taking Tuberculinum her periods started at the usual time, the flow extended for about four days. But the pain of the corn was unchanged.
In the repertory sepia is the 3mark remedy for painful sensitive corns and I gave Sepia 10M 2D. After one and a half months she came to me and informed that she is pregnant. In this case Tuberculinum cleared the field and Sepia sowed the seeds. If Tuberculinum is the first choice of our prescription when we elicit H/O tuberculosis in the patient or in the family what does carcinosinum have to offer if there is a history of cancer?
Let me illustrate with a few examples.

CASE NUMBER 3
The patient is a 25year old lady. She had aborted 5 times repeatedly (inspite of taking the routine injections to prevent miscarriage) first at the 1st month, second and third at the 2nd month, fourth at the 1st month and fifth at the 3rd month. The investigations like torch screening and hormonal tests were normal. Here parents had expired, father of MI and mother of carcinoma cervix. I adopted a different approach in this case, by stressing on the family history Carcinosinum 1M was prescribed once a month. The result was after 3 months she conceived and delivered a baby girl. The most interesting thing here is that the routine injections taken earlier were not given this time.
CASE NUMBER 4
A 30-year-old lady came with a history of repeated abortions. Her first pregnancy was uneventful and she delivered at term. After that the lady aborted 4 times at the 3rd month each. She had tried almost all modes of treatment including homoeopathy from elsewhere. There is a history of carcinoma in the family. Her father had died of carcinoma cheek, grandfather of carcinoma stomach and paternal uncle of carcinoma cheek . Mother is hypertensive. I know that kalicarb is the remedy for abortion at third month and I presumed that she might have received the same and the other remedies for abortion, from the other homoeopath. My prescription was Carcinosinum 1M once a month. She conceived within two months. Unfortunately she developed hypertension at the 9th month and had to undergo caesarian section.
