Namaste Rashmi ji,
Since your AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) level is 5, which indicates a higher ovarian reserve, the primary concern would likely be related to the quality of eggs, ovulation, and hormonal imbalances. High AMH can sometimes indicate conditions like PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), which can cause irregular ovulation despite a good ovarian reserve.
Ayurvedic Management for High AMH and Ovulation: Chandraprabha Vati: This helps balance hormonal levels, reduce excessive androgen (male hormone) production, and regulate menstrual cycles. It’s especially helpful in conditions like PCOS, which can be associated with high AMH. Kanchanar Guggulu: Useful for regulating excess hormonal imbalance, especially related to PCOS. It helps in normalizing the ovulation cycle and improving the health of the reproductive organs. Shatavari and Ashwagandha: Shatavari works to nourish the uterus and regulate ovulation, while Ashwagandha reduces stress and promotes hormonal balance, both of which are essential for improving fertility in high AMH conditions. Lodhra: It helps reduce inflammation and improve uterine health, which is beneficial when dealing with hormonal imbalances associated with high AMH. Guduchi (Giloy): A potent herb for detoxifying the body and supporting the immune system, Guduchi helps balance the hormonal profile and strengthens the reproductive system. Amla and Triphala: These herbs are excellent for detoxification, improving the quality of eggs, and regulating hormones. Triphala improves digestion and helps in detoxifying the reproductive organs. Dietary Modifications: Focus on a low glycemic index (GI) diet, which can help balance insulin levels and improve ovulation. Whole grains, lean proteins, and vegetables are ideal. Avoid sugary, processed foods, and dairy products, as they can exacerbate hormonal imbalances. Include cinnamon, turmeric, and fenugreek in your diet to regulate insulin and improve hormone levels. Green leafy vegetables like spinach, kale, and bitter gourd are excellent for reducing excess androgen levels. Lifestyle Changes: Regular Exercise: Engage in moderate exercises like yoga, walking, or swimming to help balance hormone levels and reduce stress. Avoid excessive weight gain, which is common in high AMH conditions. Pranayama and Meditation: Practices like Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) and meditation help in reducing stress, which can negatively affect fertility. Healthy Weight: If necessary, focus on maintaining a healthy weight to balance insulin and reduce the risk of complications like PCOS. Other Ayurvedic Therapies: Consider Panchakarma treatments like Uttarbasti (medicated oil instillation into the uterus) and Vasti (herbal enemas) to cleanse and rejuvenate the reproductive system. These treatments help balance excess doshas and enhance fertility. Conclusion: In your case, managing high AMH involves balancing hormones, reducing excess androgens (male hormones), and improving ovulation quality. Along with the medications you’re taking, integrating these Ayurvedic remedies, lifestyle changes, and diet modifications can greatly support your fertility journey.
Please consult with both your fertility specialist and an Ayurvedic gynaec to combine modern and traditional approaches effectively. Patience and consistency are key for improving egg quality and achieving conception. Dhanyavad!
Tough situation you’re in. Trying to conceive can be such a rollercoaster, especially when ovulation stubbornly refuses to cooperate, you know? Your AMH level indicates a good ovarian reserve, but those delayed periods and those underdeveloped follicles beg for a little love from Ayurveda’s side of the house, huh?
First things first, let’s get your doshas evaluated. It’s possible there’s a bit of vata imbalance causing this delayed cycles and irregularities. Vata governs all sorts of movement, including menstrual flow. Agni – or digestive fire – could also use a visit. If digestion’s not in harmony, everything else gets out of sync too.
Try incorporating warm, nourishing foods into your diet – think oatmeal, rice, and sweet fruits. Good old ginger in warm water before meals can help stoke that digestive fire. Avoid cold and processed foods and make sure to get plenty of ghee in there – keeps things smooth.
For follical growth, herbs like Shatavari and Ashwagandha can be incredibly supportive. Shatavari nourishes the reproductive tissue, so giving it a shot might be a good idea. Take a tsp with warm milk in the morning and evening. Ashwagandha can help too, especially if stress is aggravating things; it tends to help calm and lower that vata.
You may want to give yoga and pranayama practices some time. Poses like Baddha Konasana (Bound Angle Pose) and Supta Baddha Konasana (Reclining Bound Angle Pose) promote blood flow to the pelvic region, a valuable ally for regular ovulation.
It’s worth touching base with an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner – they’ll tailor the regimen just for you, helping address root causes. Modern treatments and Ayurveda can work in tandem, aligning your health towards that a desired goal. Patience and consistency, sometimes tough to muster, can really pay off. Keep faith in yourself.
