Introduction: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one the most common endocrinological pathology of female reproductive organs especially in reproductive age group. According to WHO currently 8-13% females are suffering from PCOS worldwide while, 70% of the cases remain undiagnosed. The seriousness of the disease is attributed to it for being a leading cause of female infertility due to anovulation. The comprehensive effect of hyperandrogenism and menstrual irregularities leads to adverse psychological consequences in a female’s life. Its conventional treatment includes diet management, combined-oral contraceptive pills (OCPs), dexamethasone, metformin etc. which may have side-effects like increased weight, nausea, vomiting, thrombosis and many more. Alternative medicine like Homoeopathic treatment with Individualised and holistic approach can provide a gentle management for PCOS. This article contains a series of four cases showing successful treatment of PCOS and emphasizes its effectiveness as a potential alternative to present conventional medicines available for PCOS. Conclusion: Homoeopathic treatment was given with Individualised medicines which were selected exclusively in each case. This treated PCOS in a gentle and short frame of time in all four cases. The medicines prescribed were Pulsatilla nigricans in two cases, Sabina and Folliculinum in other two cases respectively. Since incidences of PCOS is increasing day-by-day such evidence-based medicinal studies need to be conducted to elaborate scope of Homoeopathic treatment in polycystic ovarian disease.
