Homeopathy is a complementary system of healing that believes in ‘like cures like’. But can it cure infertility? Read on to know more about the role of homeopathy in infertility. Homeopathy uses the same principle of ‘like cures like’ to treat infertility as well.

In scientific terms, infertility is defined as the inability to conceive despite having regular unprotected sex for one or more than one year . The cause for infertility can be either present in the male or female partner like low sperm counts in men or poor quality of sperm and hormonal disturbances, blocked fallopian tubes, endometriosis, fibroids etc. in women.

Homeopathy works in infertility by:

1. Regulating ovulation in women
2. Increasing sperm count and improving sperm mobility in men
3. Removing emotional blockages
4. Reducing stress
5. Treating depression and anxiety

Homoeopathy is especially useful in curing infertility due to low sperm count and sperm motility. A homoeopath can identify the cause of your infertility by asking you specific questions related to your: 

1. Age
2. Duration of trying to conceive
3. Nicotine, alcohol, coffee or tea consumption
4. Genital diseases including inflammation, surgery and trauma
5. Any other conditions you may suffer from, including hereditary conditions
6. Any active infection in the body
7. Exposure to toxins such as chemicals, radiation, heat or noise
8. Stress levels
