Efficacy of Cyclical Prescription in Homoeopathic Management of Polycystic Ovary Disease: A Case Report.

Polycystic ovarian disease is a very common condition affecting women of reproductive age. Homoeopathy believes in a holistic approach and, when prescribed, can correct hormonal imbalances, regulate ovulation, and deal with associated complaints, as well as help to cure the condition from its root cause. A case of a 17-year-old female came into the Homoeopathic outpatient department with complaints of irregular menses and hyperpigmented patches on her back. Hormonal assay and thyroid function tests were done to rule out other disorders, and ultrasound of the abdomen and pelvis was done to confirm the diagnosis of polycystic ovarian disease. In this case Sulphur, Calcarea Carb, and Lycopodium were prescribed in a cyclical manner and proved to be beneficial.
