BENEFITS OF HOMEOPATHY IN TREATMENT FOR THYROID DISEASES OVER CONVENTIONAL MEDICINE

Thyroid disorders like hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism result from the imbalance in the production of hormones by a thyroid gland that plays a key role in regulating the metabolism, energy levels and overall health.

Autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD) are the most common organ-specific autoimmune disorders, affecting approximately 2–5% of the general population. Of 366 Emirati nationals tested for autoimmune thyroiditis, 220 (60%) showed abnormal TPOAb and/or TgAb results. Among them, 85.5% were women, and 45.5% were aged between 31 and 40 years (Source: New Emirates Medical Journal))

These conditions are increasingly common globally, including in Dubai, and patients are looking for alternatives to conventional treatments that require lifelong hormone replacement.

The goal of homeopathy for thyroid treatment is to target the root cause of the imbalance rather than just manage its symptoms.. It helps stimulate the body’s self-healing ability, offering gentle, safe and long-term relief without side effects.

Understanding Conventional Thyroid Treatments

Conventional thyroid treatments aim to restore hormone balance and manage symptoms.

Hypothyroidism

• Treated with levothyroxine, a synthetic thyroid hormone, to replace the deficiency.

Hyperthyroidism

• Managed using antithyroid medications like methimazole or propylthiouracil.
• Other options are radioactive iodine therapy or thyroid surgery to reduce hormone production.

Side effects and limitations of conventional thyroid treatment

   • It can cause agranulocytosis (low white blood cell count) and damage to the liver.
2. Radioactive Iodine:
   • This may lead to hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid).
   • Rare side effects: Dry eyes or skin reactions.
3. Surgery (Thyroidectomy):
