PCOS or PCOD (Polycystic ovarian syndrome or disease) & Homeopathy

What is PCOS or PCOD (Stein-Leventhal Syndrome)?

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) or Polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD) sufferers experience multiple cysts in their ovaries. PCOS is a hormonal disorder affecting 10-15% of women, worldwide, irrespective of race or color.

While the cause is unknown, excessive amounts of androgenic (male) hormone, lack of ovulation and enlargement of the ovary causes menstrual irregularities and infertility. Endometrial cancer, diabetes, miscarriage and obesity are some of the key risks associated with PCOS.

Role of Homeopathy

Management of PCOD primarily involves prescribing a constitutional Homeopathic remedy capable of working on the ovaries and the entire endocrinal system. This approach usually helps in correcting the pathology associated with PCOD.

There are numerous remedies capable of influencing this condition. The remedy prescribed is chosen after carefully understanding your entire constitution, which includes:

  • Presence of any genetic predisposition
  • Physical makeup (obesity)
  • Peculiarities of your menstrual cycle
  • Your entire physical and personality characteristics

Scope of Homeopathy

Based on the cases treated and being treated at HRD centres we can conclude that Homeopathy:

  • Is a safe, complementary option for PCOS suffers
  • Can improve and regularize your menstrual cycle
  • Help in the prevention or minimize cyst formation
  • To an extent influence your hormonal imbalance

Homeopathy for PCOS or PCOD should be continued for a significant duration of time as the appearance and normalization of the menstrual cycle as well as decrease or absence of cyst formation are the only means by which improvement can be monitored.

We generally recommend treatment duration of 6 months to start with. Continuation of the treatment depends on the changes and improvement witnessed and may continue for another 4-6 months.

The eventual goal is to help regularize the cycles and minimize or prevent the formation of cysts, of which we are very confident relying on the numerous cases here at our centres.
