Homeopathy & hyperthyroidism
'Moderation is the key' – how many times have you heard this phrase? Often overused, yet relevant. Health, well-being as well as success rest on one principle: All things in moderation. As in life, the concept of moderation applies to all the biological as well as metabolic functions in our body as well. This is the reason why when our thyroid gland (an endocrine gland located in our neck that makes two hormones necessary for normal functioning of our body) produces more thyroid hormones than required, it results in an imbalance causing the condition called Hyperthyroidism –over-activity of the thyroid gland.
Hyperthyroidism causes lot of symptoms like anxiety, unexplained weight loss, brittle hair, weakened muscles, especially in thighs and upper arms, rapid heartbeat (over 100 beats per minute), shaky hands, and sweating.

Thirty-years-old Ragini came to Dr Batra's® complaining significant weight loss in just few months. She had lost around 10 kgs in span of 3 months without making any significant changes in her diet and lifestyle. She also suffered from mood swings, felt anxious all the times and experienced shaky hands with lot of sweating. The symptoms indicated hyperthyroidism. We advised her to take thyroid test that signaled hyperthyroidism.
On the basis of her detailed case history and analysis, we prescribed her a homeopathic remedy. She was regularly tracked for changes in her weight, bone mass, muscle mass, total water content and basal metabolic index [BMI]. As the treatment progressed, over a period of one year, she gained weight and her thyroid was under control.
Homeopathy for hyperthyroidism
Homeopathy treats hyperthyroidism with safe, natural medicines, without any side-effects. It considers thyroid disorders as a result of autoimmune glandular dysfunction. It provides a better chance of treatment, because the treatment is patient-specific, based on the individual’s persona — not just the disorder by its name alone.
What it means is that the homeopathic medicine for thyroid is selected depending on the patient's mental, physical and psychological make-up that is specific to them along with the symptoms produced.
Conventional treatment for thyroid disorders primarily relies on drugs that stop thyroid gland from making hormones and surgery. Homeopathic treatment, on the other hand, is aimed to improve thyroid function naturally, not synthetically. Homeopathic medicines for thyroid work by stimulating the body's own healing capacity. They encourage the body to reactivate hormone secretions, replenish and reinstate thyroid physiology [function], while helping to heal the body naturally. It therefore treats without any side-effects.
Homeopathic treatment is also useful as a supportive therapy for regulating thyroid problems.
