Usefulness of homoeopathic medicine in treatment of primary infertility due to anti-müllerian hormone deficiency – A case report
The incidence of infertility in women is increasing amongst the Indian population, reflecting global trends. Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) has become a vital marker for assessing ovarian reserve. There is growing interest in the factors influencing AMH levels, such as obesity, physical activity, smoking, alcohol consumption, as well as race, ethnicity and socioeconomic status. In certain cases, assisted reproductive technologies, such as in vitro fertilisation, may be suggested to improve the chances of conception. A 29-year-old woman visited the clinic, reporting difficulty in conceiving for 4 years. She was diagnosed with low ovarian reserve based on her low AMH level. The case was treated with homoeopathic medicine, and the patient conceived within 6 months, showing a single live intrauterine embryo with an average gestational age of 6 weeks, as confirmed using ultrasound. Assessment using the Modified Naranjo Criteria for Homeopathy at the final visit yielded a score of +8 on a scale of −6 to +13, suggesting a high probability that the patient’s improvement was due to the homoeopathic treatment. This case report indicates that homoeopathic medicine can be effective for primary infertility associated with low AMH levels within a reasonable timeframe.
