Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Individualized Homoeopathic Medicines in LM Potencies  Participants will receive individualized homoeopathic medicines selected on the basis of totality of symptoms and repertorization using Kent’s Repertory. Medicines will be prescribed in LM (50 millesimal) potencies as per standard Hahnemannian guidelines. The potency, dose, and repetition will be individualized for each patient. Follow-up will be done every 4 weeks with modification of remedy or potency as required. No comparator arm is used as the study follows a pre–post interventional single-arm design.

Brief Summary  

This study is a pre–post interventional trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of individualized homoeopathic medicines in fifty millesimal potency for the management of hypothyroidism. Adult patients diagnosed with primary hypothyroidism will receive individualized homoeopathic treatment based on Kent’s Repertory for a period of six months. The primary outcomes include change in thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels and improvement in the Zulewski clinical hypothyroid score before and after the intervention. The secondary outcome includes improvement in quality of life as assessed by the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire. The study hypothesizes that individualized homoeopathic LM potencies can produce clinically significant improvement in biochemical parameters, symptom scores and overall quality of life in patients with hypothyroidism.
