●Understanding you problem and im giving some medicines take it for 5 6 months . ●Mixing Ratio - 2:1 • Ashwagandha Powder - 100 grams Dried Ginger Powder - 50 grams Mix both and store in an airtight container. How to Take Daily - 3 grams twice a day With • Lukewarm water, milk, or smoothie Continuous consumption will only yield benefits (not immediate results, but lasting benefits). ●Plant-Based Iron and Problems Heme iron (from animals) is easily absorbed by the body. Non-heme iron (from plants – such as spinach, chickpeas, kidney beans, and lentils) is not easily absorbed by the body. Because of this, iron deficiency is more likely in vegetarians. ●Iron + Vitamin C Combination • Add lemon juice to spinach or green vegetables. Eat kidney beans/chickpeas/lentils with tomato or lemon salad. Eat amla or orange with soaked chickpeas in the morning. Cooking in an iron pan also provides a little extra iron. ●Ayurvedic Energy Drink Formula (Easy Recipe) Boil for 3-5 minutes, strain, Boil in 1 glass of water: • tsp - celery • tsp - cumin • tsp - turmeric • 2-3 - black peppercorns (crushed) • 1 pinch - black salt + rock salt • Add - a little jaggery • And finally - a little lemon juice. Drink on an empty stomach during morning or afternoon fatigue. ●Ayurvedic Benefits (Benefits You Can Feel) Instant Energy - Good Lemon + Spices = Fast Energy Throat & Chest Relief - Removes phlegm, clears throat Allergy Soother - Turmeric, Black Pepper Digestive Power - Celery, Cumin ignite the digestive fire Natural Detox - Deeply cleanses the lungs and stomach Daily Immunity Booster - All-day Shield

Hello, Your symptoms can be explained logically- this is not likely a heart problem (since ECG, TMT, 2D echo are normal). The main cause is a combination of anemia + deconditioning + ongoing blood loss from fibroids Why you get shortness of breath (root cause) 1) Iron deficiency anemia (primary cause) -Hemoglobin ~11 is low for your age -Low Hb= less oxygen supply to tissues -> While walking or climbing-> body demands more oxygen-> breathlessness + fatigue Also causes -easy tiredness -reduced stamina -mild chest/back discomfort (muscle fatigue due to low oxygen) **Heavy bleeding due to fibroids Contiuous blood loss every cycle - Iron stores never recover -anemia persists even with occasional tablets **Low physical activity (deconditioning) -No regular exercise-> lungs and muscle less efficient ->even mild exertion causes breathlessness **Lipid imbalance -High LDL + triglycerides-> early vascular stiffness -> not immediate cause, but contributes to poor endurance When to be cautious If you develop -breathlessness at rest -severe chest pain -palpitations or dizziness Then re evaluation is needed This is mainly -anemia (pandu roga) -blood deficiency (rakta kshaya) -heavy menstrual bleeding (artava dushti) -mild vata + pitta imbalance 1) Correct anemia (most important) -Lohasava= 15ml + equal water twice daily after meals =improves hemoglobin and iron absorption -Dhatri lehyam= 1 tsp morning =nourishes blood and improves energy 2) Control heavy bleeding (fibroids support) -Ashokarishtam= 15ml + water twice daily after meals =regulates periods, redcues excess bleeding **Continue your current tablet pause only when required 3) Improve stamina and breathing -Dashmoolarishtam = 15ml + water at night =imroves energy , reduces fatigue, supports lungs Diet - beetroot, carrot, pomegranate -black raisins soaked overnight -jaggery + sesame seeds -green leafy vegetables -warm, freshly cooked meals Avoid -tea,coffee with meals blocks iron absorption -processed and oily foods Lifestyle must follow -start slow walking= 15-20 min daily gradually increase -gentle breathing= Anulom Vilom= 5-7 min, deep breathing -proper sleep -regular meals dont skip Expected improvement -3-4 weeks= better energy -6-8 weeks= reduced breathlessness -3 months= HB improvement Your breathlessness is functional and reversible mainly due to -iron deficiency from fibroid related blood loss -low stamina Focus on regular iron correction + bleeding control + gradual fittness Do follow Hope this might be helpful Thank you

Hello Mrs. Saranga Shortness of breath during walking could be due to low heamoglobin. Start with Iogen syrup 10ml-0-10ml after food with water , will help improve heamoglobin level. Shatavari gulam 1-0-1 will help balance your hormones Menovin tablet 1-0-1 after food with water, will help in menaupause , and pre -menaupause phase. Take pomegranate juice/ beetroot/ carrot juice/ Apple juice approximately 200ml. Daily Include Nachni atta in your diet.
