| Polycystic ovarian disease | | I am a 24 yr medical professional who suffered through the so called "worses" of PCOD (polycystic ovarian disease). I had, to start with, delayed menses. Whenever the menses appeared, it lasted for not less than 12 days with the heaviest flow that would make me bed-bound and severely anemic This prompted me to visit a Gynecologist; he advised me to do a sonography USG. The USG revealed a big 5.5x5.5 cm cyst in my left ovary. Apart from that it also showed multiple tiny cysts in both ovaries. I underwent laproscopic excision of the same but there was no relief in my complaints (irregular periods and a very heavy, clotted and painful menstrual flow). My Gynaec put me on the estrogen tablets but my cycles still continued to be delayed. Then, I sought the help of an Endocrinologist and was asked to have Metformin (used as a diabetic medication) and Finast (testosterone inhibitor) which made my life even duller than ever as I started having problem while concentrating in my studies. Finally, I decided to seek help from the only homeopath I knew since my childhood. He had cured me for my allergic cough and cold problems. He advised me to do a USG once again (done on 02/02/04); it showed multiple tiny cysts on both ovaries. Soon after the onset of my treatment (within 6 months), my cycle got regularized; the flow too became normal (in quantity) and was not clotted any more. Besides, now it didn't prolong for too long as it used to earlier. I took the medicine for approximately 3 yrs and today I am having no complaints with my periods. Repeat sonography done on 27/01/06 and on 22/2/08 revealed no cysts at all. Both the ovaries were normal! I feel homeopathy has worked really well in curing my problem that I faced for quite a long time! | |
