Thank you!

Hello divya Thank you for reaching out. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) in lean body type women often goes undiagnosed longer because weight gain isn’t a major symptom. However, issues like hirsutism (facial/body hair), acne, irregular cycles, and central fat deposition (belly fat) still indicate a hormonal and metabolic imbalance, especially involving androgens (male hormones), insulin resistance, and sluggish digestion. In Ayurveda, this reflects Kapha-Vata imbalance, artava dushti, and often ama accumulation.

Here’s a treatment plan with Ama Pachana first, followed by targeted medicines to address the main symptoms. This plan is safe, natural, and best followed for at least 3–6 months.

Treatment Plan

1. Ama Pachana (First 7 Days) • Hingwashtaka Churna – ½ tsp with warm water before lunch and dinner • Trikatu Churna – 1 pinch with honey, once daily before breakfast

2. Internal Medications (From Day 8 onwards) • Kanchanara Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food (balances hormones, reduces ovarian cysts) • Punarnava Mandura – 2 tablets after breakfast and dinner (improves metabolism, reduces water retention) • Rajapravartini Vati – 2 tablets twice daily, only for 7 days before expected period (to induce and regulate periods) • Manjishtadi Kashayam – 20 ml with equal water, twice daily before food (purifies blood, helps with acne and pigmentation)

3. External and Dietary Advice • Apply Kumkumadi tailam or Aloe Vera gel at night for acne/pigmentation • Avoid dairy, sugar, maida, deep-fried foods • Add soaked fenugreek seeds and ½ tsp of flaxseeds in your daily diet • Do 20 minutes of brisk walking and 15 minutes of yoga (focus on surya namaskar, Bhramari pranayama)

Suggested Investigations • Serum LH, FSH (Day 2–3 of period) • Serum Testosterone, DHEA-S • Pelvic USG (if not recently done) • HbA1c (to check insulin resistance)

This is a gentle and steady process aim to heal rather than suppress symptoms. Let me know your current period pattern (last 3 cycles), any medications you’ve taken before, or if there’s a family history of PCOS for a more personalized approach.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

Hi Divya, Hirsutism, acne, irregular menstrual cycle are related to PCOS. Kindly share your USG report. Could you please provide details about your menstrual cycle, such as the date of your last period and the typical length of your cycle (e.g., 35 days)?

1. Saptasaram kashayam 15 ml + 45 ml lukewarm water twice daily before food. 2. Asokarishtam 10 ml twice daily after food. 3. Rajapravarthini vati 1-0-1 after food.

The above medications are prescribed to help regulate your menstrual cycle and stimulate menstrual flow. Stop these medicines during periods.

To address PCOS, especially in individuals with a lean body type experiencing symptoms like hirsutism, acne, irregular menstrual cycles, and belly fat, Ayurveda offers a holistic approach grounded in balancing the doshas, particularly Kapha and Vata, which often contribute to such conditions. According to Ayurvedic principles, these imbalances cause disruptions in the body’s natural harmony, leading to symptoms.

### Diet and Nutrition Start by focusing on a diet that pacifies Kapha and Vata. Favor warm foods over cold meals, like soups and herbal teas, to nurture your agni, or digestive fire. Include whole grains such as quinoa and brown rice, and avoid processed foods. Having fresh vegetables and seasonal fruits is vital, but reduce intake of very sweet or sour fruits. Spices like cinnamon, black pepper, and turmeric can be beneficial to include daily for their balancing properties.

### Herbal Remedies Consider herbs like Shatavari and Ashwagandha as they support hormonal balance. You might also benefit from Fenugreek and Herbal teas of spearmint to reduce symptoms like hirsutism. Please consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner before starting any herbs to ensure they suit your specific constitution.

### Lifestyle Modifications Regular physical activity is key, so engage in yoga and breathing exercises like Pranayama to reduce stress levels, which can exacerbate symptoms. Additionally, practice regular sleep hygiene by going to bed and waking up at the same time every day to align with the body’s natural rhythms.

### Detoxification Occasionally, undergoing a gentle detox using Panchakarma may help. This process should only be conducted under the guidance of a certified Ayurvedic specialist, as it involves procedures like controlled fasting and oil therapies that require professional supervision.

### Important Recommendations While Ayurveda provides effective strategies for managing symptoms of PCOS, it’s critical to monitor your condition regularly with healthcare providers. Keep a record of your symptoms and seek medical evaluations to track progress and any changes in symptoms.

Ensure to consult with qualified practitioners when diagnosing and managing any health conditions to tailor these recommendations for your unique needs.

When managing PCOS through the Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, we focus on balancing doshas and enhancing overall body function. In your case, the imbalance in the Vata and Kapha doshas might be particularly significant. The irregular menstrual cycles, hirsutism, and acne suggest hormonal discrepancies that can be addressed by harnessing diet, herbs, and lifestyle.

First, dietary changes are crucial. Favor warm, cooked meals, and minimize raw, cold foods that can aggravate Vata. Include whole grains like quinoa and barley; they help stabilize blood sugar and aid digestion. Lean body types should consider incorporating healthy fats such as ghee and olive oil to nourish tissues and balance hormones.

Herbal remedies like Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) and Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) are essential. Shatavari supports the female reproductive system and can help regularize the menstrual cycle. Ashwagandha assists in reducing stress-related hormone imbalances. Mix a half teaspoon of each in warm milk or water once or twice daily.

For hirsutism and acne, Triphala might be beneficial due to its detoxifying properties. Boil one teaspoon in water, let it steep overnight, and drink in the morning. Consistent use can help clear skin and reduce excess hair.

In addition, incorporating yoga and pranayama can harmonize the body’s energy flows and reduce stress levels that exacerbate PCOS symptoms. Daily practices such as Bhramari Pranayama can enhance endocrine function.

Lastly, regular Abhyanga (oil massage) with sesame oil can balance Vata dosha while nourishing the skin and improving circulation. Apply warm oil to the whole body or focus on specific areas, proceed with a gentle massage before bathing.

PCOS can be complex, and continuous monitoring and adjustments might be required. Always consult with a healthcare practitioner, ensuring treatments align with your body’s needs and prevent any adverse interactions with existing conditions or treatments. If symptoms persist or worsen, a thorough check by a qualified physician is recommended.
