Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), aka PCOD
When a woman exhibits two of the three criteria mentioned below, she may be considered to
be suffering from PCOD.
- Very little or no ovulation.
- Growth of hair on the face or male-pattern baldness
- Increase in sexual desire and/or multiple cysts in the ovaries.
Signs & Symptoms :
- Menses are irregular, few, or completely absent.
- Primary infertility is due to a poor or complete lack of ovulation
Associated symptoms which may or may not be present
- Apple-shaped" obesity, which is centred on the lower half of the torso.
- The presence of a fault in sugar metabolism is considered the primary cause. Therefore, these women are susceptible to developing diabetes mellitus.
- Pain during sexual intercourse
- Prolonged periods of bloating,
- Mood swings, pelvic pain, backaches.
- Waking from sleep due to shortness of breath.
- Acne.Â
- Skin tags—"tiny flaps of skin
- Acanthosis nigricans—"patches of dark skin usually present in the axilla and neck"— is a sign of insulin resistance.
Test
- Ultrasonographic study of the pelvis to confirm cysts in the ovaries.
- Laparoscopic examination.
- Blood test: abnormal levels of testosterone, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), prolactin, and 17 hydroxyprogesterone.
Treatment :
There is no curative treatment in the allopathic system of medicine. The treatment with hormones alleviates symptoms.
Role of Homeopathy
- By giving a constitutional treatment that improves fundamental tissue functions across various organs.
- By employing organ remedies, I stimulate specific organs and detox yet another, which helps improve hormonal levels in the body.
- I address the ongoing mental and emotional stress that influences hormone levels unfavourably. First, I recognise them during case-taking, and to treat them, I adopt a two pronged approach. One, I point out their presence and their negative effect on the patients, and two, I treat them by counselling and by prescribing appropriate homeopathic remedies.
- I also advise on how to reduce weight and improve glucose metabolism by using cutting edge solutions.
- Â To achieve this, I give them an insight into various foods and how to eat intelligently.
- In some cases, I recommend the use of allopathic medicine to lower the absorption of glucose from the intestine and to continue using thyroxine supplements in the associated case of hypothyroidism
