Abstract

Introduction: Multimorbidity, a rise in all ages, is a challenge for health care systems that are focused on single-disease management. Homoeopathy has shown competence in the management of chronic diseases, whether they occur as a single ailment or as multimorbidities. Case Summary: A 25-year-old female suffering from symptoms of PCOS, like irregular menses, secondary dysmenorrhea and secondary amenorrhea, along with chronic migraine visited the OPD. She also developed renal calculi during the previous homoeopathic treatment. Her condition improved through homoeopathic medicines Pulsatilla and Lycopodium. The case is reported according to HOM-CASE guidelines. The assessment of causal attribution of homoeopathic treatment was carried out using the Modified Naranjo Criteria, and VAS was used as the pain assessment for difficulty arising from menses, headache and renal calculi. MIDAS was used to determine disability due to migraine. The patient eventually reported regularity of menstrual cycles, reduction in pain during menses, and resolution of ovarian cysts. Migraine and renal calculi were also reported to be relieved as per the MIDAS score and ultrasound report, respectively. This case report suggests an encouraging role of constitutional treatment through individualised homoeopathic medicines in treating multimorbidity. However, more case studies and well-designed controlled research are warranted to further investigate the effect of homoeopathic intervention in multimorbidity.
