Homœopathic Links DOI: 10.1055/s-0043-1777818Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common metabolic and reproductive disorders among women of reproductive age. Women suffering from PCOS present with menstrual dysfunction and androgen excess. Two patients aged 16 and 19 years suffering from PCOS were treated successfully with individualised homoeopathic medicine. These two cases of PCOS were treated with marked improvement within 1.5 years by individualised homoeopathic medicine with change in potency and repetition as per requirement. Modified Naranjo Criteria for Homeopathy (MONARCH) was used as a tool for attributing a causal relationship between the homoeopathic intervention and outcome. Visual analogue scale was used as a tool for assessing pain during menses (dysmenorrhoea). The improvement is evident from the regularity of the menstrual cycle, along with the resolution of cysts in ovaries as evidenced by ultrasonography reports which indicate a positive response of homoeopathy in relieving the symptoms as well as pathology associated with PCOS.
