Abstract Leucorrhoea is a significant concern for women of reproductive age, causing persistent distress and occasionally serving as an initial indicator of various major gynecological disorders globally. The World Health Organization (WHO) acknowledged the practices of traditional medicine and the contributions of these practices that make to health, well-being, people-centered health care, and universal health coverage, eventually challenging the emerging technology of the modern world for more sustainability perspectives. The traditional medicine known as "Sidabiyai," which is used for the treatment of leucorrhea, has been the subject of research that has explored its ability to scavenge free radicals, as well as its phytochemical components and mineral constitution. Free radical scavenging activity was tested using DPPH, and the results were represented as IC50 (inhibitory concentration). Standard techniques were utilized for phytochemical screening, which included total phenolic content, flavonoid, alkaloid, saponin, and tannin. The analysis of mineral nutrient content, including Potassium, Phosphorous, Magnesium, and trace elements such as Sulphur, Iron, Zinc, Copper, and Manganese, was performed using standardized methods: Sulphur via spectrophotometry, Potassium by flame photometry, Phosphorous through the vanado-molybdate yellow method, and Iron, Zinc, Magnesium, Copper, and Manganese using atomic absorption spectroscopy. The test traditional medicine scored 14.2 µg/ml inhibitory concentration of DPPH IC50, phenol (43 mg/g), flavonoid (42 mg/g), alkaloid (20mg/g), saponin (60 mg/g) and tannin (93mg/g). In detection of antioxidants, phytochemical constituents and minerals, the traditional homemade medicine “Sidabiyai” expedite the emerging potential of modern technology in development of medicinal plant-based lifesaving drugs.
