Hlo,
From an Ayurvedic point of view, a thyroid cyst corresponds mainly to Kapha-dominant Granthi with involvement of Meda dhatu and mild Vata association.
Because: It has been present >2 years Size is reducing No other symptoms 👉 Prognosis is good.
Complete disappearance is possible, but slow, and medication should not be stopped abruptly.
Ayurvedic Understanding (Brief) - Dosha: Kapha ↑ (primary), Vata involvement - Dushya: Rasa, Meda - Srotas: Rasavaha, Medovaha - Agni: Mandagni at tissue level - Nature: Benign Granthi (cystic swelling)
Goal of treatment: Kapha-Meda shaman Granthi lekhana (resolution) Support thyroid function without suppression
Ayurvedic Prescription (Child – 10 years) 1. Kanchanar Guggulu Dose: ½ tablet twice daily Timing: After food Anupana: Warm water Action: Reduces thyroid cyst (Granthi), balances Kapha–Meda
2. Varunadi Kashayam (If Kashayam is too strong, use syrup form) Option A – Kashayam Dose: 5 ml Dilution: Add equal warm water Frequency: Twice daily, before food Option B – Varunadi Syrup Dose: 10 ml Frequency: Twice daily, before food
3. Trikatu Churna (Very mild) Dose: 1 pinch (≈125 mg) Frequency: Once daily, after lunch With: Honey Purpose: Improves tissue Agni, prevents cyst recurrence ⚠️ Avoid if child feels burning or acidity
4. External Application (Optional but helpful) Kanchanar Churna + warm water Apply gently over thyroid area Frequency: 3 times per week Duration: 20 minutes, then wash off
Diet Rules (Mandatory for Results) Avoid: Cold milk at night Curd, cheese, ice cream Bakery & junk food Encourage: Warm home food Vegetables (lauki, tori, pumpkin) Small quantity of cow ghee Duration of Treatment Initial course: 3 months Expected response: Further reduction in cyst size
Review: Thyroid profile every 6 months Do NOT stop Thyronorm without endocrinologist advice
Prognosis ✔ Already shrinking → very good sign ✔ With regular treatment → complete resolution is possible ✔ Child is asymptomatic → favorable outcome

Dr RC BAMS MS
Hello, It is good to know that it is decreasing in size. Is the cyst visible from outside?. If yes please start application of dasahnga lepam churnam mae to a warm paste by mixing with hot water over the cyst(be mindful about the temperature of the paste)
If your child is over 18 years the following will help the child- 1. Kanchanara guggulu DS (AVN) 1-----0----1 for 120 days. 2. Varanadi kashayam 20ml----0-----20ml by adding 80 ml of boiled cooled water along with medicine no.1 for 120 days.
Take care, Kind regards.
Hello Thanks for clearly laying out your child’s situation. I totally get how worrying it is when your 10-year-old has a thyroid cyst and has been on Thyronorm for three years. The good news is the cyst has shrunk, and there are no symptoms, which is a great sign.
YOUR CONCERN
Age: 10 years Problem: Thyroid cyst How long: Over 2 years Meds: Thyronorm 100 mcg (for 3 years) Cyst changed: Got smaller Other issues: None Tried before: Homeopathy
AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING
Ayurveda generally links thyroid cysts to too much Kapha, affecting Meda (fat tissue) and Rasa (plasma), plus a slight Agni (digestive fire) problem.
We call this a:
* Kapha-pradhana Granthi (a cystic swelling) * It’s like a mild form of Galaganda (goiter), but in your child’s case, it’s not getting worse and is actually getting better.
SIGNS IN YOUR CHILD
–Cyst shrinking:Good sign Kapha is already getting under control. –No pain or pressure: Means it’s not serious and is stable. –Long-term Thyronorm: Hormone levels are probably steady.
IMPORTANT
With kids, many thyroid cysts aren’t serious and can be managed. Surgery isn’t always needed, especially when the cyst is getting smaller and not causing any problems.
CAN IT BE FIXED?
Yes, it’s manageable and can even get better, depending on:
* Steady hormone levels * Checking on it regularly * Helping thyroid work naturally * Staying away from things that make Kapha worse.
warning: Don’t stop Thyronorm without talking to a doctor. Ayurveda helps and supports, but it’s not a quick swap for medicine, especially for kids
TREATMENT GOAL
* Stop more cysts from forming. * Slowly help the thyroid tissue work normally. * Balance Kapha and Meda. * Gently boost metabolism (Agni). * Help with good growth and immunity.
AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT
INTERNAL MEDICATION
1.Kanchanar Guggulu 1-0-1 after food Helps shrink cysts and balances Kapha and gland swelling.
2 Guduchi Satva 1 tsp with warm water once a day (Boosts immunity and balances Pitta without making Kapha worse.)
3.Hamsapapadai kashaya 10ml-0-10ml with equal water after food ( helps shrinking cyst)
DIET PLAN
✅INCLUDE
* Fresh, light meals * Moong dal, rice, chapati * Fruits in season * Veggies like bottle gourd, ridge gourd, carrot * A little cow’s ghee
❌AVOID
* Lots of junk food * Bakery stuff, chips, packaged snacks * Cold drinks, ice cream * Too much cheese, pizza * Lots of sweets
Daily habits:
* Enough sleep * Playing outside often * Limit screen time * Gentle yoga (with a teacher): * Cobra Pose (Bhujangasana) * Bridge Pose (Setu Bandhasana) * Keep stress low (really helps thyroid)
Checking up and tests:
Thyroid tests (TSH, T3, T4): Every 6 months. Neck Ultrasound Once a year. Keep taking Thyronorm as your specialist says.
If things stay steady, the Thyronorm dose might change later, but only with a doctor’s OK.
Your child is stable, getting better, and doing well. With careful checks, Ayurvedic support, good food, and seeing the specialist regularly, the future looks good.
Please don’t try to treat it yourself or stop Thyronorm suddenly.
Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate
Don’t worry Take kanchnar gugulu ds ( avn pharma) 2 bd Definitely give best results And also do nasya with cow ghee 2 drop each nostril
Can you mention size of cyst, TSH, T3,T4 result?
As there is decrease in size, it’s a positive outcome.
Thyroid cysts are usually non cancerous. Your child is not having any other symptoms so follow up with ultrasound (6-12 month gap).
By knowing thyroid hormone level we can decide the dose of medicine

Hi this is Dr soukhya as considering your problem… See if the thyroid cyst is really causing too much worry and if taking 100mcg tab still thyroid is not controlled get it removed if much problem then only… If nothing much worried then you can follow these medicines T kanchanara guggulu 1-0-1after food T trayushanadi guggulu 0-1-0 in after noon … If really takes time you have to wait get results… You should cont thyroid tab along with these medicines… after 3 month check thyroid profile if controlling no need to worry…
