I'm using Femilon for my PCOS and started it from the first day of my period for 21 days. After five days, I noticed some light spotting. Do you think this could be a medical issue? Also, when should I start the next 21-day strip of Femilon? I'm a bit worried and could use some guidance.

My mom is 40 years old and has a 6 cm uterine fibroid in the anterior myometrial wall. The endometrial echo also shows a slight polyp-like structure, so there are issues in both the endometrium and myometrium. She also has PCOD, though not too severe. Despite all this, she has regular periods with no symptoms. Can homeopathy completely cure her? We don't want surgery, but can you assure a full recovery? Could you share more details about this?
