Irregular periods can be concerning, especially with your history of catamenial epilepsy and medication use. The fact that your periods have suddenly become irregular after being consistent for a while suggests an imbalance that might be influenced by your doshas, particularly Vata and Pitta. In Ayurveda, menstrual cycles are closely related to the balance of these doshas, the digestive fire(agni), and overall harmony within the body.
First, consider incorporating warming and nourishing foods. Favour cooked meals like khichdi and soups that are easy to digest, support Vata balance, and provide warmth. Include herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari, known for supporting reproductive health and hormonal balance. Taking Ashwagandha powder with warm milk in the evening can help soothe the nervous system too.
Hydration plays a crucial role. Drink plenty of warm water throughout the day, possibly infused with ginger or cumin to aid digestion and circulation.
Maintain a daily routine, waking and sleeping at the same time every day to help regulate your internal clock. Gentle yoga and breathing exercises, especially Pranayama, might help in balancing stress levels, reducing any Vata aggravation. Your meditation practice is already a great step – keep it regular.
It’s also wise to revisit your medications with a healthcare provider. Anti-epileptic drugs can sometimes affect hormones and menstrual cycles. Confirming that your medications are not contributing to these changes is crucial.
Before embracing any new changes, consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized approach suiting your constitution could provide deeper insights. If your irregular periods continue or worsen, seeking guidance from a gynecologist is paramount to address any underlying issues that may require immediate attention.
Hey pranavi Have you consulted gynecologist for this? You’re at an age where perimenopausal hormone shifts begin in some women. This can be due to the premenopausal hornonal shifts. Do a Hormone Panel (Blood Test)
Ask your doctor to test:
FSH, LH
Estradiol (E2)
TSH and Prolactin
AMH (if fertility planning is still open)
These will show if you’re perimenopausal or having temporary suppression.
Till then you can take- Ashokarishta Regulates bleeding and cycle 15 ml twice a day with equal water Shatavari (capsule or powder) Nourishes uterus, supports hormones 500 mg or 1 tsp twice daily Dashmool Kwath (optional) For Vata calming (if dryness/irregular flow) 30 ml decoction daily

I am in Canada and can only get the testes once I am back in India, is there any problem with taking these medicines along with anticonvulsants I take lacosamide 100 and oxcarbazepine 300. Periods were regular last year. Started a shift in diet plan last month 16hr intermittent fasting with exercise 5km walk daily. Does that effect cycles? But having balanced food. Kindly suggest.
