Natural Fertility Treatment Options: Homeopathy and Infertility

Homeopathy is one natural fertility treatment option that more and more women and couples are turning to in their efforts to get pregnant. Lauded for its holistic approach to treating a variety of diseases and illness, homeopathy, and more specifically, homeopathy remedies, are also being used to treat both male and female fertility problems. But what is homeopathy and how is it used in coping with infertility? And is homeopathy really a safe and effective infertility treatment?

 

What is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is an alternative medical system that boosts the individual’s general health, both physically and emotionally.

Tailored specifically to each individual’s needs according to her symptoms, lifestyle, as well as her mental and physical health, homeopathic treatments are comprised of small doses of what are known as homeopathy remedies.

Homeopathy remedies are natural substances that are derived from plants, minerals and animals; they are then diluted in a series of several steps while maintaining their healing properties until they do not contain a single molecule of the original substances.

This process is necessary, as these remedies would produce illness or disease if prescribed in their natural forms or in greater quantities.

Specific remedies are used to treat specific illnesses, symptoms and conditions. Remedies are available in pellet, liquid and tablet forms. A typical dose is taken three times daily for a period of up to three days.

 

What are the Benefits of Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is used to alleviate symptoms associated with a variety of illnesses and conditions, including:

  • eczema
  • anxiety
  • mild depression
  • arthritis
  • chronic fatigue syndrome

 

Side Effects

If taken with the supervision of a trained professional, homeopathy treatments should not have any negative side effects on your health.

However, while the FDA requires drug companies to list the ingredients of homeopathy remedies, their intended use and instructions for safe usage, it does not test or review remedies for safety. Therefore, you should always consult with your doctor before taking any homeopathy treatments.
