Why is it important?

Improvement >30% was observed in 90% of patients receiving active treatment and 37.5% receiving placebo (P=0.048).

Perspectives

Homeopathic treatment was found to be effective in alleviating the symptoms of PMS in comparison to placebo. The use of symptom clusters in this trial may offer a novel approach that will facilitate clinical trials in homeopathy. Further research is in progress.
