Hey there, I get where you’re coming from. Trying to conceive while juggling thyroid issues, PCOD, and those moods can feel like a mountain. You’re not alone, and while it can be complex, Ayurveda might offer some insights here.
So, thyroid and PCOD both can have a huge impact on conception. According to Ayurveda, they’re quite related to an imbalance in your doshas, particularly kapha and vata. Also, when agni (digestive fire) is slow, it often leads to ama (toxins), which could block proper absorption of nutrients your body needs for hormonal balance and reproductive health.
Since you mentioned a healthy lifestyle, it sounds like you got a good base. Still… consider focusing on warming foods - things like ginger, cinnamon, and garlic which can help boost your agni. If you can, in the mornings, drink warm water with a bit of lemon tumeric to start your day with some detox.
Then there’s yoga - ever tried Pavanamuktasana or Baddha Konasana? These are great for improving blood circulation to your reproductive organs… Ideally, practice them regularly. Meditation too – it might help with the mood swings, maybe even sync your body’s rhythms to a more peaceful beat.
But hey remember, mood can be this sneaky foe sometimes right? Think about Ashwagandha, a herb known to help combat stress and balance hormones. Take it with warm milk at night but always check with an Ayurveda practitioner on the dose… ya know, to match it with your unique constitution.
Ensure you’re having ghee, it’s nourishing for the body and mind. And as for timing, make sure you’re consuming most of your food before sunset, digestively makes a difference.
Lastly, Ayurveda also strongly emphasizes regularity, not just in diet but also in sleep patterns and daily routines. Sometimes the tiniest changes can shift the balance. Of course, always keep close with your health care provider to align these with your medical treatments too.
Hang in there. Patience can be tough, but with tiny steps, you might just turn the corner.
