Hello Vijli, please get an USG PELVIS done to evaluate the condition of your uterus for better understanding before taking any treatment.
Hey there, it sounds like you’re experiencing a bit of a delay with your cycle this month, huh? In Ayurveda, irregular periods can often be linked to an imbalance in the doshas, stress or changes in routine. At 39, you’re in a phase where the body might be heading towards a transitional time like perimenopause, but it’s essential to not jump to conclusions.
First things first, let’s consider what might be affecting your cycle. Stress, lifestyle changes, or even diet can all play a part. Have you been under more stress lately, or experienced notable changes in your daily life? Things like this might shift your hormonal balance temporarily.
Diet plays a pretty big role. If your agni, or digestive fire, is weak or overloaded, it can affect your cycle. Try focusing on a balanced diet with warm, easily digestible foods. Maybe move towards a pitta-pacifying diet, which focuses on cooling, soothing foods like cucumber, spinach, and a bit of coconut water. Avoid overly spicy, salty or oily food for now.
An abhinanda karpooradi taila self massage can be soothing, calming the body, and can assist in reducing stress levels. Just take a small amount, warm it a bit, and gently massage your abdomen. Do this in the evening, and maybe spend a few minutes in meditation, calming your mind.
Remember, it’s essential to maintain a regular routine - waking up and sleeping at the same time, balanced meal timings can help your body find its rhythm. Staying hydrated is vital too.
Of course, if you notice repeated irregularities, or have any other worrying signs, it might be a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional to rule out any other concerns. Ayurveda is beneficial but it’s also important to use the wisdom at our disposal in all forms. Take care and let me know how things are going!
