In Ayurveda, we focus on balancing hormones and doshas through diet, lifestyle correction, and medicines. — this indicates -Vata aggravation → severe, recurrent headaches, fatigue, excessive sleep, emotional lability -Pitta involvement → nausea, irritability, peri-menstrual worsening -Artava (menstrual cycle) disturbance → symptoms clearly linked with periods -Manovaha srotas involvement → crying spells, mood swings, mental exhaustion ----Prescription 1) Menosan Tablets (Aimil) – 1 tab twice daily after food 2) Brahmi pearl capsule – 1 cap twice daily after meal 3) Ashwagandha Tablet – 1 tab twice daily after food 4) Livomyn / Livonex syrup – 2 tsp twice daily after meals (for Agni support) ------Anupana Warm water after tablets Milk at night (if tolerated) ------ Lifestyle advice Regular sleep cycle (very important) Avoid fasting during periods Light warm diet, avoid cold/spicy food before menses Stress reduction practices (breathing/meditation) ----Review after 4 weeks If severe migraines persist → will need to examine properly

Your symptoms cyclical headaches, nausea around periods, crying spells, fatigue, excessive sleep — strongly suggest hormonal imbalance (PMS / estrogen-progesterone fluctuation) with Vata-Pitta disturbance. Since MRI and eye scan are normal, this is functional and manageable. Simple Ayurvedic treatment Hormone balance + PMS control Ashokarishta Dose: 15 ml + equal water, twice daily after food For mood swings, crying, stress Brahmi Vati Dose: 1 tablet twice daily after food For headache + nausea (especially before periods) Godanti Bhasma Dose: 125 mg twice daily with honey For fatigue and strength Ashwagandha churna Dose: 1 teaspoon with warm milk at night If periods irregular Rajapravartini Vati Dose: 1 tablet twice daily for 5 days when periods are delayed Diet & lifestyle Avoid tea/coffee excess, spicy, junk food Take regular meals, don’t skip Sleep before 11 pm (avoid daytime oversleeping) Do light yoga, pranayama (helps hormones + mood)

Hello, Your picture headache from neck-> above ears/eyes-> behind eyes, nausea around periods, crying spells, fatigue, poor sleep, backache, chronic digestion issues) may suggest vata aggravation (pain, poor sleep, constipation tendency) with pitta involvement (head/eye heat, nausea, hormonal aggravation). Because symptoms are severe and significantly limiting, keep medical follow up active too Internal management 1) Ksheerbala101 capsules= 1 cap twice daily after meals =classical vata support for nervous system, pain, sleep support 2) Ashwagandharishtam= 20ml + equal water twice daily after meals =supports fatigue, stress resilience, nervous depletion 3) Triphala tablets= 2 tabs at bedtime with warm water =if chronic digestion / constipation is contributing External support very important -Gentle neck/shoulder massage with warm Dhanwantaram taila -Night= gentle foot and scalp support with Ksheerbala taila Diet -warm, regular meals don’t skip meals- can worsen headaches -reduce excess caffeine, very spicy foods if they trigger nausea/head pain -support digestion, chronic gut disturbance can aggravate vata Lifestyle/yoga -sleep routine very important -anulom vilom 10 min -bhramari 7 rounds -gentle neck stretches not forceful When can you feel difference? -2-6 weeks= sleep/tension may begin improvin -6-8 weeks= headaches may reduce in intensity/ frequency for some people -reassess by 8-12 wweeks Kindly go for this investigation -hormonal/perimenopausal factors -thyroid, iron/B12, vitamin D -migrain pattern -eye pressure follow up Do follow Hope this might be helpul Thank you

Hello, Given the clinical presentation of severe, cyclical headaches, intense fatigue, and mood disturbances occurring in conjunction with your menstrual cycle, the working diagnosis points to menstrual migraine, likely exacerbated by an underlying hormonal imbalance. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this is assessed as a condition driven by significant Vata vitiation with Kapha association, necessitating a comprehensive, multi-stage treatment approach. To establish a clear baseline and rule out systemic deficiencies, it is recommended that you complete a full hormonal and nutritional assay. Hormonal Profile: Thyroid Function Test (TFT), Luteinizing Hormone (LH), Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Estradiol, and Progesterone. Nutritional/Metabolic markers: Ferritin and Vitamin B12. To facilitate an accurate longitudinal assessment, you must maintain a detailed symptom diary. For each of your next four cycles, please record: Headache Patterns: Onset, duration, intensity, and associated neurological symptoms (e.g., photosensitivity). Systemic Symptoms: Presence of menstrual pain, breast tenderness, muscle/joint pain, appetite changes, and digestive patterns (bloating, constipation, or diarrhea). Cycle Metrics: The interval between cycles, the duration of menstruation, and the volume of flow. This treatment is designed for a 3–4 month period. Adherence to the following regimen is critical: Varanadi Kashayam: 15 ml, twice daily, before food (diluted with 60 ml of lukewarm water). Tab. Migroset: 2 tablets, twice daily, after food. Cap. Brucast O: 2 capsules, at bedtime. Asokarishta: 30 ml, after food. Note: You may experience slightly looser stools as part of the therapeutic process; this is expected and should not be confused with pathological diarrhea. Lifestyle and Dietary Modifications Dietary Standards: Consume only freshly prepared, steam-cooked meals. Strictly avoid spicy, high-sodium, fried, processed, or fermented foods and beverages. Incorporate daily Surya Namaskara. Practice Pranayama (specifically Anulom Vilom and Bhramari) to help regulate your nervous system and improve sleep quality. Perform gentle head and foot massages prior to bedtime to mitigate Vata aggravation and promote restful sleep.
