I cannot speak to the effectiveness of ANY of these, as never have tried, but Syphilinum: Top Homeopathic remedy for AVN with night pains that get worse at night For its beneficial action on body tissues wherever the destructive process is present, Syphilinum is the top natural Homeopathic medicine. Apart from its universal healing action to stop the destruction of body tissues, Syphilinum is also a Homeopathic remedy of great help in treating bone necrosis. The most dominant feature for selecting Syphilinum in any given case of AVN is the worsening of bone pains at night. The pains are experienced throughout the night. The patient is not able to sleep on account of the severe pain. The pains may compel the patient to walk about, which seems to bring relief. Such persons remain comparatively well the whole day. Another marked symptom that can help in selecting Syphilinum for AVN cases is a specific pattern regarding the appearance and disappearance of pains. The pattern followed is a gradual increase in bone pains and in the same way, a gradual disappearance of pains. The third symptom that may be present in a few AVN patients needing Homeopathic remedy Syphilinum is worsening of pains because of heat and some relief by applying cold water. Craving for alcoholic stimulants and a history of excessive alcoholism may be present in persons requiring Syphilinum. Silicea: Homeopathic medicine for necrosis of variety of bones Silicea is considered among the best natural Homeopathic medicines for necrosis (premature death of cells) of a variety of bones ranging from long to small bones. The necrosis of jaw, wrist bones, hand bones, feet bones, ankle, knees and in addition long bones —including humerus (bone in upper arm), femur (bone in thigh) and tibia (bone in front of leg) — are all the site of action for using Silicea. The general symptom for using Homeopathic remedy Silicea is sensitivity to cold air, when bone pains worsen from a slight exposure to cold air. Warmth brings relief. The persons needing Silicea may have an excessive offensive odour on the feet. Fluoric Acid: Homeopathic medicine for AVN of long bones Natural Homeopathic medicine Fluoric Acid works most effectively as a remedy for the necrosis of long bones. The bones include humerus (bone in upper arm), femur (bone in thigh) and tibia (bone in front of leg). Fluoric Acid thus is mainly used to halt the necrosis appearing in long bones. The persons needing Homeopathic medicine Fluoric Acid usually have excess body heat and the external heat worsens the condition. This distinguishes Fluoric Acid from Homeopathic medicine Silicea, which is beneficial if cold air worsens the condition. Apart from long bones, the bones of ear (which are rarely involved) are also covered under Fluoric Acid, which helps in improving the blood circulation and preventing further necrosis of bones. Aurum Metallicum: Homeopathic medicine for necrosis in nasal, palatine bones Aurum Metallicum is a natural Homeopathic medicine that is very beneficial in the treatment for necrosis in nasal and palatine bones. The mastoid bone is also the site that benefits with the use of Aurum Met. The patient complains of pains at night and may suffer from extremely offensive odour from the mouth and nose along with pain. The patient may also feel depressed with a high degree of sadness. In addition, the zest for life is lost. These symptoms, however, may not appear in all the patients needing Homeopathic remedy Aurum Mettalicum. Symphytum: Homeopathic medicine for bone damage in fracture Natural Homeopathic medicine Symphytum is very beneficial as a remedy for bone-related complaints. Symphytum can be considered in all cases where the bone has suffered damage following fractures. It helps in proper knitting of the bone. This is helped by providing the necessary callous material needed for bone re-formation. So, in every case of fracture where Homeopathic remedy Symphytum is used, it acts as a preventive agent against necrosis as the bone is very neatly and efficiently woven by this medicine. Top Natural Homeopathic medicines for AVN of long bones Fluoric Acid is the natural Homeopathic medicine that is mainly used for patients whose pain worsens because of heat. Mezereum is the ideal Homeopathic remedy when the bone pains get worse in cold air or at the slightest touch. It can also be used for necrosis of long bones with pain at night. Natrum Sulph: Best Homeopathic medicine for AVN of hip joint Natural Homeopathic medicine Natrum Sulph should always be considered in cases of AVN of hip joint. Natrum Sulph is one of the most beneficial Homeopathic medicines when dealing with hip joint AVN. The patient mainly complains of pain during motion or when stooping. Natural Homeopathic remedies for Avascular Necrosis of femur bone Homeopathic medicines for treating Avascular Necrosis of femur are selected after noting down the symptoms in each individual case. Silicea and Strontium Carb are the natural Homeopathic remedies mainly recommended for patients who experience aggravated pain in cold air. Homeopathic medicine Fluoric Acid, on the other hand, suits patients whose condition worsens in the heat. Apart from this general feature, other characteristic symptoms provided by the patients are given the highest importance for choosing the correct natural Homeopathic medicine when dealing with AVN of femur. Homeopathic treatment for Avascular Necrosis of tibia bone The main symptom for choosing Homeopathic remedy Asafoetida for AVN of tibia is worsening of pains at night and over-sensitivity in bone pains. Phosphorous is another natural Homeopathic remedy that helps in cases where the tibia bone is experiencing the destruction of cells and is very fragile. The person needing Phosphorus is nervous and sensitive to touch, noise and even sound. Along with sensitivity, he or she may experience a burning sensation in various parts of the body. Best natural Homeopathic medicines for jaw AVN Phosphorus is an effective Homeopathic remedy for treating lower jaw AVN. It is of great help when the lower jaw is affected due to lack of blood supply. However, a special mention must be made that Phosphorus is used in match factories and some persons may have acquired the disease due to working in match factories and inhaling Phosphorus fumes for a long duration. Natural Homeopathic medicine Merc Cor is also effective as a treatment for necrosis of upper jaw. But it is Hekla Lava which is the top natural Homeopathic remedy for Avascular Necrosis of jaw when the jaw destruction is accompanied by marked facial nerve pains

I come from a medical point of view, CA and did not research any ostio- or homeopathic remedies. I there is research going on with stem cells and marrow transplants. I know such procedures are being used in France and elsewhere, from Google but I don't know of any outcomes.

Yes. Study shows Ayurvedic and Homeopathic approaches have some success. The raw vegan diet also has success.

Unfortunately there are no natural products or treatments that affect osteonecrosis. There are many 'scam' therapies that don't work and take advantage of people in pain. There is no evidence to support their claims. Before you start to take any supplements or natural therapies it's important to talk to your doctor or pharmacist to make sure they won't interact with your existing medicines or upcoming surgery.
