Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age. PCOS is characterized by a combination of various clinical presentations on account of ovulatory dysfunction and hyperandrogenism. It is influenced by genetic and environmental factors; including diet, lifestyle patterns and stress. PCOS is usually associated with insulin resistance, Type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and endometrial cancer. PCOS is one of the important causes of female infertility.

Homoeopathic treatment not only focuses on managing the signs and symptoms produced due to PCOS - whether it be menstrual irregularities, hirsutism, acne, difficult conception and other associated complaints; but it also works towards treating the condition itself. The goal of Homoeopathic treatment is to restore the menstrual cycles naturally. Homoeopathy considers the individual as a whole – taking into account the pathological state, in addition to the constitutional features i.e. her physical and mental make-up. With this the ultimate aim lies in resolution of cysts in ovaries and regularization of menstrual cycles naturally and improves fertility.

The research studies show positive leads for management of PCOS with Homoeopathy. PCOS is closely linked to lifestyle habits. Inactivity plays an important role in its development and progression. Physical activity and losing weight has a positive impact on PCOS.
