Your warm water + small amount of ghee routine does not usually worsen thyroid or fibroids, so you do not need to stop it completely if it suits your digestion. For TSH 13.5 + fibroids, focus on reducing inflammation and supporting hormones: Increase: vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, dal, protein-rich foods Reduce: processed foods, excess sugar, bakery items, fried foods Avoid excess soy and junk foods Include iron-rich foods if bleeding is heavy: beetroot, dates, pomegranate, leafy greens Simple support: Kanchanar Guggulu – 1 tablet twice daily after food Ashokarishta – 15 ml with equal water twice daily after food Regular thyroid follow-up is important because TSH 13.5 is significantly elevated.

Many thanks for the answer. The question is about My periods routine. I’m forty one year old.
In April I got my period on 21.
In May I got it by 15.
The routine takes only 25 days.
It means I used to get periods early every month
There is no 28 days routine for me.
Kindly let me know that it has to be take care
I heavy bleeding upto three days.
Fourth day no bleeding but can feel little bleeding and blood smell.
Upto 11 days the same condition.
What it means??
Thank you for sharing the details. At 41 years of age, cycle changes can happen due to hormonal shifts, but heavy bleeding for 3 days with spotting/blood smell continuing up to 11 days should be evaluated, especially since you also have fibroids. A 25-day cycle can still be normal, but prolonged bleeding/spotting suggests that hormonal imbalance or fibroids may be contributing. Avoid excessive tea/coffee, junk foods, and very spicy foods. Include iron-rich foods like dates, pomegranate, beetroot, and leafy vegetables. Ashokarishta – 15 ml with equal water twice daily after food Kanchanar Guggulu – 1 tablet twice daily after food Praval Pishti – 1 tablet twice daily after food Please also monitor hemoglobin and thyroid levels, as both can affect bleeding patterns. Regards, Dr Raghuveer (Ayurvedacharya)
Sir Many thanks for the answer I am very strict about my diet No non veg I have got medicine allergy I’m allergic to paracetamol After second delivery only I was diagnosed with thyroid and other issues nine years before So I started taking thyronorm upto 50mg It causes ulceration damage when I took it regularly in empty stomach. I got mouth ulcer So I started taking homeopathy medicine for thyroid and other illness Taking homeopathy medicine for more than 5years But still I have this kind of harmonal issues It is confusing. All are telling that stop using homeopathy medicine
Your condition suggests Kapha-Vata imbalance with weak Agni (metabolism), which is commonly associated with high TSH and uterine fibroids in Ayurveda. Your routine of warm water with 1 tsp ghee is acceptable, but taking ragi daily for long periods may increase heaviness and coldness in some people with hypothyroid tendency. Prefer… Warm, light, freshly cooked meals Moong dal, vegetable soups, khichdi Cooked vegetables like bottle gourd, drumstick, carrots, ridge gourd Spices that improve metabolism: dry ginger, jeera, turmeric, cinnamon Warm jeera-coriander infused water Reduce / Avoid… Excess ragi daily if you feel bloating, lethargy, or coldness Curd at night Fried food, bakery items, refined sugar, cold drinks Excess cabbage, cauliflower, soy, processed foods Helpful habits Daily walking or yoga Early dinner and proper sleep Avoid daytime sleeping and overeating
