Abstract
Background:-The prevalence of Hypothyroidism is increasing day by day. Understanding the background of hypothyroidism is essential for recognizing its impact on the body and the importance of timely diagnosis and treatment to prevent long-term complications and improve patient outcomes. Case summary :-An 8 year old girl came to OPD complaining of weight gain and constipation since 2 years. She was already diagnosed with Hypothyroidism but had not undergone any treatment. A proper case study was done and constitutional medicine was given. Patient was prescribed with Calcarea carbonicum 200 weekly doses after case study and patient was better for a time being. Later on patient had an increase in TSH (82.6mIU/l) values for which the case was re-studied and Calcarea carbonicum again seemed to be the similimum, so the potency was increased. Calcarea carbonicum 1M was given a single dose and TFT was checked again the next month TSH became 76.92mIU/L. After 4 months TFT was again checked and the hormone levels came to normal (3.07mIU/L). This case helps us to understand that homoeopathy has a positive role in managing Hypothyroidism thus improving the quality of life.
