The irregularities you’re experiencing with your periods, even after normal test results, can stem from various subtle imbalances in Ayurvedic principles. It’s possible that the previous medication might have not matched well with your dosha or aggravated your agni, caused digestive disturbances. Understanding your unique prakriti, or constitution, is essential in ensuring the ayurvedic treatment is both effective and comfortable for you.
In Ayurveda, treatment is highly personalized and not typically about a fixed duration like “take for X years.” Instead, it requires monitoring how your body responds to the herbals or lifestyle interventions, then adjusting accordingly. Instead of setting a rigid timeline, it’s crucial to observe changes in your body’s response, especially if discomfort arises. Stomach pain with any medication is a signal that it may not be suited to your current state or requires adjustment.
Consider balance of your doshas first. Vata dosha is often implicated in irregular periods, so you might benefit from a Vata-pacifying routine: warm, cooked foods, regular meal times, and stress reducing activities like yoga or meditation. Incorporate digestive teas such as ginger or cumin with meals to enhance agni.
If taking Ayurvedic formulations, opt for those that are gentle on digestion like Ashoka or Shatavari – they are known for balancing hormones and might be helpful. Start with lesser doses and closely observe how your body reacts, especially during the initial few weeks. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your practitioner.
Ensure grounding evening rituals, minimize caffeine, eat at regular times, and get ample sleep. Practices like Abhyanga (self-massage with warm oil), can be calming and support overall balance.
If you experience strong discomfort, it is wise to discontinue the medication and consult with your practitioner. They can adjust the treatment plan to better suit your needs. Ayurveda is all about alignment with your body’s natural rhythms rather than strict intervention, so gentle observation and adaptation are key.
