Answer 1:

First, there is nothing like "Allopathy". Allopathy is a term used by the

Wikipedia says

"The terms were coined in 1810 by the inventor of homeopathy, Samuel Hahnemann. It was originally used by 19th-century homeopaths as a derogatory term for heroic medicine"
Q. What is "Heroic medicine" ?

"Heroic medicine was based on the belief that disease is caused by imbalance among the four "humours" (blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile) and sought to treat disease symptoms by correcting that imbalance"

Steroids have two main functions in a living thing:

This thread will tell you how Quackery works...
Step 1: Quacks understand the market needs. If patients find oncology treatment painful and expensive, they will 'create' a product for cancer. Quacks understand entrepreneurship
Step 2: Once the "area of need" is identified, quack delivers a product that is relatively cost-effective (and largely ineffective). It could be a mixture of "herbs", "natural product", some fancy-sounding "diet"

I actually responded to an in-flight emergency once. I am an Endocrinologist
Turns out the patient was diabetic and he was having hypoglycemia. Corrected the same, the patient was better.
Suggested a few changes to the medication for the patient

Karyotype must be offered to all women presenting with Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI)
There is no age cut-off per se for ordering a karyotype in women with POI. In a study, more than 30% of women with abnormal karyotype were more than 30 years of age!
Additionally, when you order a karyotype in women, it is also imperative to order FISH to look for Cryptic Y chromosome material

It's not about what is legal and what is illegal. Everything that is 'legal' is not morally right and everything that is illegal is not morally wrong
It's about creating a system that fools thousands of young boys and girls to take up BHMS only to realize that there is little or no market for it when they finish the course
Many of these homeopathy colleges are owned and run by politicians or their cronies basically to fleece young people of money
