HELLO MEENA,
I hear the mix of things you’re juggling- breastfeeding a 3 year old irregular cycles, white discharge, weight concerns, and wanting relief from vaginal discomfort. That’s a lot to hold at once, and it makes sense you’re reaching for something like Chandraprabha vati, since it’s often talked about in Ayurveda for urinary, gynaecological, and metabolic issues
A few key points to ground the picture
BREASTFEEDING= even at 3 years, your body still shares what you take in with your child, so caution is wise. Chandraprabha vati has over 35 mineral preparations like Loha bhasma. Those are potent, and their safety during lactation hasn’t been well-studied
WHITE DISCHARGE AND INFECTION= In Ayurveda, this can fall under shwetapradara. Management usually isn’t just one pill- it often includes dietary guidance, local cleansing and sometimes formulations
-ASHOKARISHTA= 20 ml + warm water twice daily after meals
-LODHRASAVA= 20 ml + warm water twice daily before meals
-PUSHYANUG CHURNA= 1 tsp with rice water after lunch
IRREGULAR PRERIODS AND WEIGHT -These can overlap with hormonal imbalance
-SHATAVARI CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk in morning
-DASHMOOLARISHTA= 30 ml + warm water twice daily before meals
DIET -light, warm, easily digestible food; avoid excess sweets, curd, fried, and oily items (they tend to aggravate kapha and ama)
LIFESTYLE -regular movement- yoga asanas like bhujangasana, setu bandhasana, vajrasana after meals
LOCAL CARE= Sitz Baths with triphala kwath or neem decoction for infection like symptoms
INSTEAD OF CHANDRAPRABHA VATI KINDLY GO FOR THIS MEDICINES
DO FOLLOW
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU

As a breastfeeding mother with specific concerns like irregular periods, white discharge, and a desire to lose weight, turning to remedies like Chandraprabha Vati should be approached with caution. Chandraprabha Vati is a classical Ayurvedic formulation, often used for urinary tract issues, menstrual irregularities, and general digestive balance. But, while it is known for various health benefits, its use while breastfeeding requires careful consideration.
First, the active ingredients in Chandraprabha Vati include ingredients like Camphor, which may not be recommended for breastfeeding mothers due to potential effects on breast milk and the child. It’s crucial to consult with a local Ayurvedic practitioner knowledgeable about your specific health profile before taking this remedy. Every ingredient in an Ayurvedic formulation has its own set of effects, and certain herbs may not be suitable during lactation.
Addressing irregular periods and white discharge can involve looking at your overall lifestyle. Maintaining a balanced diet that supports your digestive fire or “agni” is important. Incorporate foods that are high in fiber, and consider warming spices like cumin and coriander which might help with digestion and balance your doshas. For vaginal discharge and possible infection, natural remedies such as improving hygiene, and wearing breathable undergarments can help manage the condition. However, significant symptoms should be evaluated by a healthcare professional to rule out infections that need more targeted treatments.
Since you also want to lose weight, gentle exercises like yoga or daily walks could be beneficial. Avoid straining yourself, especially since you’re in the postpartum phase. Consider an eating plan that helps balance the kapha dosha, focusing on lighter foods, warm meals, and limited sugar and refined grains.
Overall, personalized guidance from a healthcare provider familiar with both Ayurveda and postpartum care, ideally one who can closely monitor your health, is advisable. Prioritize your health and your child’s well-being with any remedy, ensuring it’s aligned with your body’s current needs.
While Chandraprabha Vati is a formulation used in Ayurveda for various issues, including some that might overlap with concerns like vaginal infections and white discharge, its usage during breastfeeding should be approached cautiously. Chandraprabha Vati contains a blend of herbs and minerals, including guggul, known for their potential effects on the body. When breastfeeding, what you consume can impact milk production and pass through to your baby, so it’s essential to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner who can provide personalized advice based on your specific dosha balance and overall health.
For irregular periods and vaginal infections, there are often underlying dosha imbalances— Vata or Kapha may be involved. Focus on balancing these through diet and lifestyle changes first. Consider reducing Kapha- and Vata-aggravating foods, like overly greasy, cold, or heavy meals. Opt for warm, freshly cooked foods and integrate spices like ginger and cinnamon to support digestion and metabolism (Agni).
To address weight loss while breastfeeding, align your meals with your natural metabolism and focus on smaller, frequent meals to maintain energy and milk supply. Include fiber-rich foods and stay hydrated to support your system.
For your vaginal infection, maintaining hygiene and using natural agents like neem or turmeric can help. Avoid synthetic substances that may irritate. If infection symptoms persist, it’s vital to consult a healthcare provider for targeted treatment, as severe or persistent infections need appropriate medical attention, and delaying might cause complications.
Finally, practicing yoga or light exercises can help maintain overall balance and wellness. But remember, personalized consultation with a professional is essential. This ensures any approach complements your health needs and promotes well-being for both you and your child.
