Shatavari churna -1tsp with 1cup milk at bedtime. 5. Menovin tablet 1-0-1 after meals. Diet- Avoid peas, cauliflower , capsicum. Drink ajwain water throughout the day Take light and easily digestible meals. Avoid tea, coffee, alcohol.

Experiencing missed periods along with symptoms like hair loss, bloating, constipation, cramps, and hot flashes at the age of 44 is often linked with hormonal changes, possibly indicative of perimenopause. Ayurveda can offer natural approaches to help balance these symptoms, focusing on pacifying the vata and pitta doshas, which are likely imbalanced here.
To address the digestion and bloating, it’s important to strengthen your agni, or digestive fire. Begin your day with a cup of warm water infused with freshly grated ginger and a bit of lemon juice. This stimulates digestion and can help reduce bloating. Also, avoid heavy to digest, processed foods and cold foods which aggravate vata. Opt for warm, cooked meals incorporating spices like cumin, fennel, and asafoetida that aid digestion.
Triphala is excellent for regulating bowel movements and supporting gut health. Take half a teaspoon of triphala powder with warm water before bed to aid in relieving constipation and removing toxins.
For hormonal balance, consider eating phytoestrogen-rich foods, like flaxseeds and sesame seeds. These can mildly influence estrogen levels naturally. As stress can exacerbate hormonal disruptions, incorporate daily practices such as yoga or pranayama to help calm the mind and mitigate mood swings and hot flashes.
Massage your body with warm sesame oil before showering. This abhyanga practice is grounding and nourishing for vata dosha, reducing stress and promoting better circulation, aiding in potential hair growth.
Since you mentioned kitchen remedies haven’t been effective, consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner for a tailored approach might become necessary. They can recommend specific herbs such as Shatavari or Ashwagandha, which are sometimes beneficial in hormonal support.
Do remember to check with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying medical issues. A combination of Ayurveda and conventional consultations can help guide a balanced and safe path.
Don’t worry, these are the signs of approaching menopause. Kindly go with 1.Shatavri Churna 1 tsp with warm milk twice daily 2.Ashokarishta 20 ml with 20 ml water twice daily,after meal 3.Praval pishti 2 tab twice daily with honey, after meal
Add colorful fruits and green leafy veggies to your diet Add legumes,nuts, brown rice and tofu to your diet Stay hydrated AVoid carbonated drinks, tea and coffee Avoid fried and processed food items Avoid spicy food items
For digestion problems you are facing Start with Tablet Liv-52 1-0-1 after food with water Hingvastak churan 1/2tsp twice after food with warm water. Triphala tablet 0-0-2 at bedtime with warm water. Follow up after 1 month
HELLO RAJNI,
At age 44, your body is naturally moving towards perienopause- the stage before menopause where periods become irregular or stop for some time -Missed periods for 2.5 months= cycle in slowing down -Hot flashes, mood swings, bloating, hairloss, constipation, cramps, facial hair= signs of hormonal imbalance
Ayurvedic explains this as vata-pitta imbalance with weakness in Artava dhatu (menstrual tissues) and disturbed agni (digestion/metabolism). When digestion is weak= bloating, constipation, gas build up When vata is high= dryness, irregular periods, cramps, hairloss When pitta is high= hot flashes, irritability, mood swings
TREATMENT GOALS -restore agni (digestion and metabolism)= reduce bloating and constipation -balance vata and pitta= regularise cycles, calm hot flashes and mood swings -Nourish artava dhatu= support natural hormonal balance -Support mind and sleep= reduce stress, anxiety, irritability -slow down premature menopausal transition if too early

At 44, it’s normal for cycles to slow down , but Ayurveda helps in easing the transition and avoiding premature menopause. Your condition is not a disease, but a Natural hormonal shift, made worse by vata-pitta imbalance

You may be experiencing early signs of perimenopause, common around your age, and caused by hormonal imbalances affecting your menstrual cycle. In Siddha-Ayurvedic view, Vata dosha imbalance often leads to irregular periods, digestive distress, and other symptoms you’ve mentioned. Addressing this imbalance can help restore harmony. Here’s what I would suggest:
1. Diet: Focus on a warm, Vata-pacifying diet. Include warm soups, stews, and cooked vegetables. Avoid cold drinks and raw foods, as these can aggravate Vata. Ginger tea, sipped throughout the day, can assist in digestion and alleviate gas.
2. Herbal supplements: Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) is beneficial for balancing hormones and supporting reproductive health. Take it with warm milk or water once daily. Consult a practitioner about appropriate doses.
3. Routine: Establish a regular daily routine. Go to bed and rise at consistent times. This can help stabilize Vata energy. Include light yoga or stretching to relieve stress and keep your body flexible.
4. Oil Massage (Abhyanga): Daily self-massage with warm sesame oil can be calming and grounding, supporting your nervous system. Allow oil to absorb for at least 20 minutes before a warm shower.
5. Hydration: Ensure adequate water intake, as dehydration can increase Vata symptoms. Warm water with a pinch of fennel or ajwain seeds aids digestion.
6. Stress Management: Engage in relaxing practices like meditation or deep breathing. These help reduce anxiety and hormonal fluctuations.
If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s prudent to consult a healthcare professional to rule out any underlying conditions. If you experience severe pain or distress, seek immediate medical attention.
