The efficacy of Folliculinum in the treatment of premenstrual tension

Abstract

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of Folliculinum 15CH on a patient experiencing premenstrual tension, with reference to the patients perception of the treatment, in order to determine how effective Homoeopathy is in the treatment of premenstrual tension. A sample of 31 patients was conveniently selected from the greater Durban area, and from this sample 16 patients were treated with Homoeopathic medication and the remainirig 15 patients received placebo treatment. Patients were screened using a series of delimitations. The patients participating in the research project were then asked to sign a consent form.
