Role of yoga and naturopathy in polycystic ovarian syndrome with complex hemorrhagic para-ovarian cyst: A case report.

A 24-years-old unmarried woman was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and a complex right hemorrhagic para-ovarian cyst (POC) in January-2022. The patient started having cystic acne breakouts and weight gain in June-2021, and a stabbing pain in the right iliac region in December-2021. Thus, she visited a primary health center, South India and underwent ultrasonogram (USG) of pelvis and abdomen in a private diagnostic center in January-2022. USG report suggested PCOS with a complex right hemorrhagic POC. Physician advised her to undergo a surgery but due to fear she refused surgery. Then, she visited our hospital in March-2022 and underwent yoga and naturopathy treatments for 8-months. The results showed a reduction in ovary size with resolution of hemorrhagic POC. Thus, yoga and naturopathy could be considered as an alternative treatment in the management of PCOS with hemorrhagic POCs. However, further studies are required to warrant the results.
