हर्बल सप्लीमेंट्स से अनियमित पीरियड्स और वजन बढ़ने की चिंताएं - #48389

Hello Main issue: Artava Dushti (irregular menses) Likely causes:

Kapha + Meda vriddhi (weight gain tendency)

Agnimandya (weak digestion/metabolism)

Apana Vata dushti (cycle irregularity)

Possible PCOS/thyroid tendency (needs confirmation)

⚠️ Important note: Ashwagandha + Shatavari are guru/snigdha (heavy, nourishing) → can increase Kapha/Meda, hence mild weight gain in some patients, especially if metabolism is slow.
