Struggling with Acne and Hormonal Imbalance Post-Birth Control - #52081
Client_23d201

I have been struggling with acne breakout since December 2024.This is after I stopped birthcontrol. Since then the acne has changed but has never fully cleared. I have tried doxytet for months, saycilic acid, benzac and natural things like ashwagnda and shavatri. Currently my skin is doing much better but not completely clear and I have marks as a result. I am only using natural products on my skin now becauseit'sso sensitive. Since coming of the pill I struggle with ovulation every month as well. The pain and fatigue is a lot. I also breakout on the chin and cheeks when the hormones fluctuate. IDon't pick or pop. I leave them and they resolve on their own but Sometimes leave marks.Gut health wise I am regular,I eat twice a day with a 7 hour gap between. I do hatha yoga,Pranayama and meditation everyday. I do not drink or smoke.I've just started excersising again and incorporating ragi and seed cycling into my diet with yoghurt as probiotics.

–What you’re describing fits very closely with post–birth control hormonal acne, especially with the chin/cheek pattern, ovulation pain, and ongoing (but improving) breakouts. You’ve already done a lot of things right, so this is more about fine-tuning and addressing the root hormonal + skin barrier balance rather than starting from scratch. –Internal 1)Manjishtadi Kwath – 15 ml + water, before food, 2× daily → Blood purification, acne + marks 2)Gandhaka Rasayanam – 1 tab, after food, 2× daily → Acne healing 3)Asokarishtam – 15 ml + water, after food, 2× daily → Hormonal balance, ovulation pain 4)Kumaryasavam – 15 ml + water, after lunch, 1× daily → Cycle + liver support — External Kumkumadi Tailam – 2–3 drops, night → Marks + skin glow — Support Spearmint tea – daily Continue yoga + seed cycling — Duration Minimum 8 weeks
