HYPERTHYROIDISM AND HOMEOPATHY 1. Hyperthyroidism is a
condition in which thyroid is over active and produces too much thyroid
hormones, T4 (thyroxine) and T 3 (Tri iodo thyronine) 2. When levels of thyroid
hormones are unusually high, the body burns energy faster and many vital
functions speed up. 3. Females are five times
more likely to develop hyperthyroidism. 4. The symptoms depend
upon the severity of the disease, age of the person and the cause of
hyperthyroidism. 5. Some of the signs and
symptoms of hyperthyroidism are · weakness
and fatigue, sweating and intolerance to heat, · skin is
warm and moist, increased sweating, hair is fine, silky and friable (hair
loss may be excessive), · frequent
bowel movements occasionally diarrhea, · weight loss
in spite of increased appetite and food intake, · protrusion
of eye ball (exophthalmos), decreased sleep, menstrual irregularities
(Periods either become less frequent or stop altogether ), · increased
heart rate, emotional lability (person loses temper easily and have episodes
of crying by slightest provocation), · nervousness
characterized by restlessness, shortness of attention span and a compulsion
to move about, · hyperkinesia
(an abnormal increase in muscular activity) as a result person cannot stand still,
taps the foot or shifts positions frequently, and · fine
finger tremors at rest. 6. TSH levels are
decreased, T3 and T4 is increased. Resin T3 uptake and Radioactive
iodine uptake is increased. TSH receptor antibody (TSH-R Ab) is high in
80% of cases.
1. Pre-hyperthyroid state
- Unexplained weight gain with a cluster of other symptoms. Blood test
reveals normal or slightly decreased TSH and higher levels of T3 and
T4. 2. Hyperthyroidism
confirmed but not started the allopathic medication yet. 3. Hyperthyroidism
confirmed and already taking allopathic medication regularly In all three situations, aim of constitutional homeopathic
treatment is to restore the health in totality – that is, to set right the
inner imbalance presenting in the form of disturbed general health, clinical
signs and symptoms of the disease and abnormal lab reports. In case one and two, constitutional
homeopathic treatment is started and improvements can be seen in general
health, along with clinical improvement in signs and symptoms. Periodic
thyroid profile will help monitor the normalizing the hormone level. In case three, patient is advised to continue
his allopathic treatment and start constitutional homeopathic treatment side
by side. Improvement in general health and clinical improvement in
signs and symptoms can be assessed regularly. Positive changes in periodic
thyroid profile will indicate the need to reduce allopathic dosage
gradually. As the improvement in signs and symptoms is evident and
thyroid hormones show normal levels, allopathic medications can be withdrawn
and a vigilant eye is kept on further changes. Periodic thyroid profile is
repeated to see any rebound sickness and confirm complete recovery. A common notion is that you have to
continue allopathic medicines for thyroid problem throughout your life.
And this is mentioned in many allopathic literatures that “while the symptoms
of hyperthyroidism are usually corrected within a few months, many patients
may need to take the medication for the rest of their lives.” But with
constitutional homeopathic treatment, there is no need to take life long
treatment for hyperthyroid problem.  Copyright
