Homoeopathy in treatment of patients with fibromyoma of the uterus

ABSTRACT

The efficacy of homoeopathic treatment of patients with fibromyoma of the uterus has been studied. Eighty-four patients with various clinical manifestations of the disease were under our observation. All patients received homoeopathic therapy only. Besides pelvic examination, real-time ultrasonic scanning was used for evaluation of tumour volume. The period of observation varied from one to three years. In our opinion homoeopathy used alone is an effective method of treatment of patients with fibromyoma of the uterus. It is possible to stop the growth of a tumour and even to reduce its size, as well as to control pain and abnormal endometrial bleeding. In the course of investigation certain patterns of response to treatment were found. These require further investigation
