Homeopathic treatment
In the conventional or allopathic treatment of female infertility the HRT (hormone
replacement therapy) is the first choice of treatment which includes:
So in the conventional of allopathic treatment of female infertility the various
hormonal preparations (HRT) are given whereas homeopathic remedies or medicines
are prescribed by symptoms rather than conditions, as each case of a particular
illness can manifest differently in different people.
Action of homeopathic medicines or treatment on the hormonal disorders
The various hormonal disorders like PCOS, thyroid disorders, prolactin hormone abnormality
and so on can be effectively treated with homeopathy.
During treatment to restore fertility many aspects of your menstrual cycle are taken
into consideration; for example the lengths of your cycle is very important, the
type of menstrual bleeding (bright red, clotted), the premenstrual discomforts like
cravings, headaches, lower back pain, pelvic pain and so on. The mental and emotional
changes that women experience during the premenstrual period should be investigated to help deal with hormonal fluctuations and imbalances.
Medicines can help restore fertility when followed in conjunction with a healthy
diet low in animal fats and high in fiber from legumes, fruits and vegetables.
The treatment or remedies act on the glands and naturally restore the normal functioning
of the affected gland. A well selected homeopathic medicine has the capability to
correct hormonal imbalance stimulating the glands to secrete various hormones as
required for the normal functioning.
Medicines stimulate the body's own immune system to stimulate the various glands
to work normally.
In the allopathy or conventional treatment the hormones are given in the form of
pills, injections whereas in homeopathy no such hormones are given and natural medicines
work by stimulating the glands to produce the required amount of hormones thus curing
the problem from the root and ensuring the patient not to suffer from the similar
problems in future.
Women trying to conceive often have clinical depression rates similar to women who
have heart disease or cancer. Infertility may have profound psychological effects.
In many cultures, inability to conceive bears a stigma. In closed social groups,
a degree of rejection may cause considerable anxiety and disappointment. But thank
god and Dr. Hahnemann (founder of homeopathy) there is homeopathy to save you from
all this loss.
Research shows that there is a relation between HRT and cancer and several warnings
have been issued by Government Health Departments.
Various infections preventing conception and miraculous homeopathy in contrast with
allopathy
The various infections like PID (pelvic inflammatory diseases), ovarian infections,
tubal abscesses and so on are one of the major factors of infertility. In conventional
or allopathic treatment various antibiotics and anti inflammatory medicines are
given which have serious side effects like abdominal discomfort, fatigue, loss of
appetite, reduced immunity and so on.
Homeopathy on the other hand is really safe for such infections. Medicines boost
up the immune system of the body. Remedies work as powerful anti inflammatory medicines
which help in treating the infection from the root.
Research shows that homeopathy offers effective treatment for female infertility,
which has been scientifically documented. It is very safe and can be combined with
the conventional treatment / allopathic treatment if required.
Surgical conditions related to infertility and homeopathy “a boon” in such conditions
The various conditions like fibroids, cysts, hyperprolactanemia, cushin’s syndrome
and so on require surgery in the conventional or allopathy treatment. Recurrences
are common even after surgery. Homeopathy is a boon for such patients as these surgical
conditions can be solved with the magical doses of medicines.
Each individual case is properly taken and analyzed to select the best medicine
for a particular case. Timely administration of the medicines help avoid surgery
and prevent the complications. Homeopathic treatment or mediciens can save you from
a surgeon's knife.
Marital discord often develops in infertile couples, especially when they are under
pressure to make medical decisions. Homeopathy is there to keep you away from taking
such dangerous decisions.
Assisted reproductive technologies (ART)
- Artificial insemination.
- Semen concentration methods: used with artificial insemination if low sperm counts.
- Donor insemination: uses a male semen donor; complex emotional and legal issues.
- In vitro fertilization (IVF): the "test tube baby" technology.
- Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT): placement of an egg with sperm in fallopian
tubes; used when female's tubes are normal.
- Zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT): a combination of IVF and GIFT; transfer
of a single cell zygote.
- Pronuclear stage transfer (PROST): early stage transfer of the sperm and ovum before
a fully formed gamete has occurred.
- Tubal embryo stage transfer (TEST): similar to ZIFT but transferring a multi-cell
embryo (2-call, 4-cell, 8-cell).
- Micro injection fallopian transfer (MIF): microscopic injection of a sperm into
an ovum and transfer to fallopian tubes. Useful for low sperm counts.
- Donor egg IVF: use of a donor female ovum with IVF (or any type of ART).
- Frozen embryos.
All the above mentioned techniques are very costly and are out of the reach of a
common man. There is a cheaper and safer alternative “homeopathy”.
There are 110 homeopathy medicines which give great results in infertility in females.
However, the correct choice and the resulting success is a matter of experience
and right judgment on the part of the doctor. The treatment is decided after thorough
case taking of the patient. Thus remedies are designer made unlike allopathy in
which all patients receive the same surgery or drugs although trade name may be
different.

What is infertility in females
Infertility is the failure of a woman to conceive after trying to do so for at least
one full year. It is the diminished ability or the inability to conceive and have
offspring.
It is also defined in specific terms as the failure to conceive after a year of
regular intercourse without contraception.
It can be due to many causes. Studies have shown that a little more than half of
cases of infertility are a result of female conditions. And remaining are caused
by sperm disorders and by unexplained factors.
Generally, worldwide it is estimated that one in seven couples have problems conceiving,
with the incidence similar in most countries independent of the level of the country's
development.
Currently, in the United States, about 20% of couples struggle with infertility
at any given time. Infertility has increased as a problem over the last 30 years.
It is well known that fertility in women decreases with increasing age, as illustrated
by the following statistics:
- Infertility in married women ages 16-20 = 4.5%
- Infertility in married women ages 35-40 = 31.8%
- Infertility in married women over the age of 40 = 70%
In Britain, male factor infertility accounts for 25% of infertile couples, while
25% remain unexplained. Fifty percent are female causes with 25% being due to anovulation
and 25% tubal problems and so on.
In Sweden, approximately 10% of couples are infertile. In approximately one third
of these cases the man is the factor, in one third the woman is the factor and in
the remaining third the infertility is a product of factors on both parts.
There are legal ramifications as well. Infertility has begun to gain more exposure
to legal domains. An estimated 4 million workers in the U.S. used the Family and
Medical Leave Act (FMLA) in 2004 to care for a child, parent or spouse, or because
of their own personal illness. Many treatments, including diagnostic tests, surgery
and therapy for depression, can qualify one for FMLA leave.
Types
- Primary infertility: Refers to the condition in which a couple has never been able
to conceive.
- Secondary infertility: Refers to those cases where a couple has been successful
in conceiving at least once, but has been unsuccessful after that.
Causes
- Cessation of oral contraceptives : Many a times hormonal balance does not come back
to normal after stopping the pill
- Ovulation disorders
- Anovulation
- Stress
- Diet
- Athletic training
- Excessive exercise
- Poor nutrition
- Hormonal disorders (type of endocrine disorders) affecting ovulation :
- Pituitary disorder
- Pituitary gland tumor
- Thyroid disorder : Either underactive thyroid or overactive thyroid (hypo or hyperthyroid)
- Adrenal disorder
- Ovary disorders
- Ovarian cysts
- PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)
- Surgical ovary removal
- Ovary infection
- Ovarian cancer
- Blocked fallopian tubes
- Scarred fallopian tubes
- Pelvic inflammatory disease
- Endometriosis
- Ectopic pregnancy surgery
- Tubal ligation : "tied tubes" procedure
- Abscess
- Uterus conditions
- Removal of IUD (intrauterine device) : This may take time before things return to
normal or sometimes it may not get normal at all
- Scarred cervix
- Uterus infection
- Cervix cancer
- Uterine cancer
- Hysterectomy
- Uterus defects
- Cervical mucus defects
- Illness in general : Any disease can reduce fertility.
- Female infertility as a complication:
- Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
- Lead poisoning
- Prolactinoma
- Smoking
- Turner Syndrome
How the cause of infertility is diagnosed
Examination
- Note height, weight and BMI. It may be of significance in the man and of great significance
in the woman. A BMI below 20 may suggest anovulation as in anorexia nervosa. A BMI
above 29 is associated with decreased fertility.
- There may be polycystic ovary disease (PCOD). Look for signs of hirsutism; facial
hair may be more than normal, although this should be interpreted in the light of
racial norms.
- Acne may also indicate high androgen levels.
- There may be a hint of male pattern alopecia with slight bitemporal recession. The
pubic hairline may extend up towards the umbilicus in a typical male pattern.
- Examination of the cardiovascular or respiratory system is unlikely to be rewarding
as is examining the breasts for galactorrhoea unless indicated by history.
- Abdominal examination should be performed and it must precede bimanual pelvic examination
or it is very easy to miss a large mass like a big ovarian cyst.
- Gynaecological examination, especially vaginal examination, may indicate undisclosed
sexual difficulties. For example her response may suggest vaginismus and you may
even find an intact hymen. An unusually large clitoris would suggest excessive androgen
activity, but this is more likely to be a long standing condition such as congenital
adrenal hyperplasia. This will probably be in a mild form, as it is presenting so
late. Bimanual examination; may find an adnexal mass from an ovary of tubo-ovarian
mass or tenderness suggesting PID or endometriosis. Uterine fibroids can distort
the uterus and interfere with implantation.
Investigations
- Mid-luteal progesterone level to assess ovulation. If low it may need repeating
as ovulation does not occur every month. The blood test is taken 7 days before the
anticipated period, that is on day 21 of a 28 days cycle but this day will need
to be adjusted for different lengths of cycle.
- Basal body temperature charts are not recommended as they are unreliable.
- FSH and LH should be measured, especially if there is menstrual irregularity. High
levels may suggest poor ovarian function. A comparatively high LH relative to FSH
is typical of polycystic ovary disease.
- The thyroid function tests a should only be undertaken if there are grounds for
suspicion as infertile women are no more likely to have thyroid disease than the
rest of the population.
- Similarly, prolactin (PRL) should only be measured where there is clinical suspicion.
- Chlamydia screening is recommended. Not only may it be a cause of infertility but
instrumentation of the genital tract in subsequent investigations may produce PID.
Hysterosalpingography
This is an x-ray of the uterus and fallopian tubes. Doctors inject a special dye
into the uterus through the vagina. This dye shows up in the x-ray. Doctors can
then watch to see if the dye moves freely through the uterus and fallopian tubes.
This can help them find physical blocks that may be causing infertility. Blocks
in the system can keep the egg from moving from the fallopian tube to the uterus.
A block could also keep the sperm from reaching the egg.
Laparoscopy
A minor surgery to see inside the abdomen. The doctor does this with a small tool
with a light called a laparoscope. She or he makes a small cut in the lower abdomen
and inserts the laparoscope. With the laparoscope, the doctor can check the ovaries,
fallopian tubes, and uterus for disease and physical problems. Doctors can usually
find scarring and endometriosis by laparoscopy.
Diet
Diet is an important factor in the treatment of infertility. It should contain seeds,
nuts, grains, vegetables, and fruits. These foods should be supplemented with milk,
vegetable oils, and honey. Curd and cottage cheese are also recommended.
About seventy to eighty per cent of the diet should consist of foods in their natural
uncooked state, because cooking destroys much of the nutritional value of most foods.
Sprouting is an excellent way of consuming seeds, beans, and grains in their raw
form, as in the process of sprouting, the nutritional value is multiplied, new vitamins
are created and the protein quality is improved.
