Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about homeopathy and consultations at Priyanka's Homeopathy Clinic, answered by Dr. Priyanka Mogare, MD Homeopathy.
What is homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a natural system of medicine that uses highly diluted substances to stimulate the body's own healing mechanisms. It is based on the principle of 'like cures like' — a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can treat similar symptoms in a sick person when given in very small doses.
Is homeopathy safe?
Yes, homeopathic medicines are prepared from natural substances and are highly diluted, making them extremely safe with no known side effects. They are safe for all age groups including infants, pregnant women, and the elderly.
How long does homeopathic treatment take to show results?
The response time varies depending on the condition. Acute conditions like fever or cold may respond within hours to days. Chronic conditions like eczema, PCOS, or arthritis may take weeks to months for noticeable improvement, as homeopathy works at a deeper level to address the root cause.
Can I take homeopathic medicine along with allopathic medicine?
Yes, homeopathic medicines can generally be taken alongside conventional medicines. However, it is important to inform your homeopathic doctor about any ongoing medications so they can plan your treatment accordingly.
What conditions does Dr. Priyanka Mogare treat?
Dr. Priyanka Mogare treats a wide range of conditions including skin problems (acne, eczema, psoriasis), hair loss, women's health (PCOS, thyroid, menstrual issues), children's health, digestive problems, respiratory allergies, joint pain, autoimmune conditions, and lifestyle diseases.
Is the first consultation really free?

Do you offer online consultations?
Yes, we offer online consultations via video call for patients who cannot visit the clinic in person. You can book an online consultation through our website or by calling us directly.
What should I expect during my first visit?
During your first visit, Dr. Priyanka will take a detailed case history covering your current symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, diet, and emotional well-being. This comprehensive approach helps in selecting the most appropriate homeopathic remedy for your individual needs. The first consultation typically lasts 30-45 minutes.

Is homeopathy effective for children?
Absolutely. Homeopathy is particularly well-suited for children as the medicines are gentle, sweet-tasting, and free from side effects. It is effective for recurring colds, tonsillitis, allergies, growth issues, bed-wetting, and behavioural concerns in children.
How are homeopathic medicines prepared?
Homeopathic medicines are prepared through a process of serial dilution and succussion (vigorous shaking). They are derived from natural sources including plants, minerals, and animal products. The preparation process is standardized and regulated under the Homoeopathic Pharmacopoeia of India.
Do homeopathic medicines have an expiry date?
Yes, homeopathic medicines do have an expiry date, typically 3-5 years from the date of manufacturing. However, they must be stored properly — away from direct sunlight, strong odours, and extreme temperatures — to maintain their efficacy.
Are there any dietary restrictions during homeopathic treatment?
Generally, it is advisable to avoid strong flavours like coffee, raw garlic, raw onion, and mint close to the time of taking your medicine (about 30 minutes before and after). Your doctor will guide you on any specific dietary recommendations based on your condition.
Can homeopathy help with chronic conditions?
Yes, homeopathy is especially effective for chronic conditions like arthritis, asthma, eczema, PCOS, thyroid disorders, and autoimmune conditions. By treating the root cause rather than just symptoms, homeopathy aims for long-lasting improvement and better quality of life.
What is the consultation fee?
The first consultation is free. For follow-up consultations, fees range from ₹0 to ₹750 depending on the type of consultation. Medicine charges are separate and vary based on the prescribed treatment plan.
