Hypothyroidism is a prevalent endocrine disorder and a hypo-metabolic state resulting from inadequate secretion of thyroid hormones, characterised by a general reduction in metabolic function that manifests as slowing of physical and mental activity. It is the second most common endocrine disorder among females and a leading cause of menstrual irregularities in all age groups due to hormonal causes, thereby mostly affecting reproductive functions in females. While conventional treatment offers hormonal regulation, it often does not address the constitutional and psychosomatic dimensions of the disease. Homoeopathy, through its individualised and holistic approach, aims to restore health by considering the totality of symptoms and underlying miasmatic influences. This case report illustrates the role of miasmatic analysis in the successful Homoeopathic management of hypothyroidism. The patient exhibited both physical and psychological symptoms characteristic of chronic miasmatic symptoms. A comprehensive evaluation of mental, physical generals, and characteristic particulars guided the prescription of a constitutional antimiasmatic remedy. The individualised selection was supported by repertorization and Materia Medica consultation, taking into account dominant miasmatic expressions, which were primarily psoric and sycotic in nature. Throughout treatment, the patient demonstrated consistent improvement in general well-being, emotional stability, and normalisation of thyroid function without reliance on conventional hormone therapy. This case highlights the significance of a miasmatic approach in the long-term management of hypothyroidism and underscores the potential of Homoeopathy to offer a deeper, more sustainable healing response. This report supports the need for broader clinical exploration into miasmatic prescribing in endocrine disorders.
