Fibrocystadenosis with co-morbidity alleviated with homoeopathy: A case report

Abstract

The most prevalent benign breast disease, known as fibrocystic breast disease, affects millions of women worldwide. The function, assessment, and treatment of this condition are all influenced by specific hormonal factors. The treatment used in modern medicine are Analgesics, metformin, prime rose oil and surgical removal, yet no permanent relief can be obtained. According to the homoeopathic literature, illnesses such as mastitis, tumor, and fibroadenoma have been effectively treated with homoeopathic medicine, and relatively few case reports concerning fibrocystadenosis have been published. Patient with fibroadenosis has a chance to develop certain co-morbidities like Pcos, fatty liver, etc. A study conducted by Ilknugur Inegol Gumus et al. discovered a statistically significant link between PCOS and fibrocystic breast disease 1. The case presented here concerns fibrocystadenosis in a 27-year-old female who was treated with individualised homoeopathic therapy and had no recurrence after a year. Bryonia was administered as a constitutional remedy following Repertorisation and based on the totality of symptoms. Before and after cyst resolution, investigatory techniques such as mammography and ultrasonography were performed. Since the case shows the disappearance of fibrocystic changes in the left breast and all other general complaints are better so we can conclude the patient is on the path to cure. As the fibrocystic changes in right breast is still there, further treatment and follow-ups will show the final result. Increased long-term efficacy data are required to develop a more efficient cure for fibrocystadenosis.
