TWe prove the existence of
$T$
-periodic solutions for the second order non-linear equation
$ {\left( {\frac{{u'}}{{\sqrt {1 - {{u'}^2}} }}} \right)^\prime } = h(t)g(u), $
where the non-linear term
$g$
 has two singularities and the weight function
$h$
 changes sign. We find a relation between the degeneracy of the zeroes of the weight function and the order of one of the singularities of the non-linear term. The proof is based on the classical Leray-Schauder continuation theorem. Some applications to important mathematical models are presented.
Keywords: Singular differential equations, indefinite singularity, periodic solutions, degree theory, Leray-Schauder continuation theorem.
