ROLE OF HOMEOPATHY?
In homeopathy, treatment is given to the person as a whole instead of considering only endometrial complaints. The case taking starts as soon as the patient enters the cabin and case is taken in detail considering his presenting complaints, stress, emotional condition, lifestyle, sleep pattern and most importantly his unique symptoms. According to homeopathy, we believe that endometriosis originates from specific unexpected emotional or biological conflicts such as sudden shock regarding their sexuality, motherhood, pregnancy or perceived reproductive conflict. Mental conflict plays a major role and persists as a maintaining cause for this condition. We focus on dealing with this mental conflict and treat in a holistic approach where recurrence has zero possibility.
