Uterine polyps or endometrial polyps, are soft growths inside the endometrium. They range in different sizes, from as tiny as poppy seeds to as large as golf balls. Usually one polyp is a find, but sometimes multiple polyps can occupy the uterus.

Most of endometrial polyps are not cancer. But some of them can transform later on. Polyps can cause problems with fertility,  because they are blocking the fertilized egg to be attached to the endometrium.

The symptoms of polyps are:

Menorrhagia (heavy menses)

Irregular menses

Spotting or bleeding between periods

Low abdominal pain

Infertility

Ectopic pregnancy

Patient, 30 years old, came to me in December 2017. She had complaints of heavy periods, spotting between periods, and low abdominal pain for 2 months. On ultrasound, two uterine polyps were detected at around 0.5 cm and 0.4 cm.

Right ovarian cyst was 2.9 by 1.7 cm. Left ovary was normal.

The first homeopathic consultation was done on December 6, 2017.

 

 

Repertorization

 

 

After repertorization, Carcinosinum 10M was prescribed in 300 ml water, one tablespoon before breakfast for 15 days.

On December 12, 2017, the patient sent me a photo with skin rash that  had developed. Carcinosinum was stopped for a few days. Then, the rash had completely disappeared by itself.

 

First follow up was on January 22, 2018 (50 days after the first consultation).

Her first period after homeopathy started on 21 December 2018. It was painful, prolonged, with a lot of clots (more then usual which can be explained by the successful evacuation of polyps).

Second period after remedy was on January 15 and lasted only 4 days, no heavy bleeding, no clots, normal like before. The ultrasound showed normal uterus and endometrium, no polyps. Right ovarian cyst became smaller 2.4 by 1.3 cm. Her anxiety about health is much better now, as well as her fear of the dark.

Second follow up on 7 May 2018

On May 7 2018 another ultrasound was done. Uterus is normal. Endometrium is absolutely normal. No polyps, no ovarian cysts. No remedy needed in this time.

 

Patient is very happy and relieved to have avoided invasive Hysteroscopic  Polypectomy – a surgical procedure in which uterine polyps are removed and send to lab to exclude the cancer.

Homeopathy is an individualized method of treatment. For the same disease in different people, the treatment can inevitably be absolutely different. Sure, it makes challenges for homeopathic practitioners, but the results are so incredible and worth it each time!
