Doctors’ responses
Based on your symptoms of chronic vaginal pain, pressure, and frequent urination, I would suggest focusing on balancing the Vata and Pitta doshas, which may be aggravated due to the hysterectomy and changes in your body. Ayurvedic treatments can address these imbalances and support your recovery:
Herbal Remedies: Consider using Ashoka and Shatavari as they are beneficial for female reproductive health, promoting vaginal tissue strength and soothing any discomfort. Triphala can help support urinary health and overall detoxification.
Diet: Include warm, moist, and grounding foods to balance Vata. Avoid cold, dry, and spicy foods. Focus on whole grains, cooked vegetables, and healthy fats like ghee to nourish the reproductive system and alleviate dryness.
Oil Massage: Abhyanga with Mahanarayan Oil or Shatavari Oil can help nourish the vaginal tissues and improve circulation, reducing discomfort. Use gentle, circular motions around the pelvic region to improve blood flow and ease tension.
Yoga and Pranayama: Gentle yoga poses, particularly those that open the pelvic area (like Supta Baddha Konasana and Setu Bandhasana), along with deep pranayama (like Nadi Shodhana), can help reduce stress, alleviate pressure, and improve circulation.
Lastly, frequent urination might also be linked to Vata imbalances, so staying hydrated with coconut water and avoiding caffeine or alcohol will help maintain bladder health. If symptoms persist, I recommend a personalized Ayurvedic consultation to tailor treatments based on your constitution and specific condition.

It sounds like you're going through a difficult time post-hysterectomy with the persistent pressure and pain in your vaginal area, plus the frequent night-time urination. It's really important to piece together what might be going on. In Ayurveda, this could be related to a doshic imbalance, perhaps the Apana Vata, which governs the lower abdomen. Fair bit of Vata imbalance can lead to feelings of pressure, pain, and difficulties in the pelvic region.
First off, could be worth trying to pacify Vata through warm, hydrating, and grounding practices. Start with warm sesame oil massages every morning – real nice for calming Vata. Warm bath or using a hot water bottle on the lower abdomen can give some relief too.
Diet is key, stick to warm, cooked, easy to digest foods. Avoid raw veggies, cold drinks, caffeine; favor root vegetables, soups, and gentle spices like cumin and coriander. Triphala can be beneficial – a tablespoon every night to help regulate digestion and support Vata reduction.
For the frequent urination, avoiding drinks before bedtime might be sensible, especially diuretics like tea and coffee. Night urination is sometimes related to anxiety or restlessness, so some evening surrender could help – light yoga or meditation to calm the system before sleep.
Consider Basti therapy (an enema with herbal oils) done by a professional Ayurvedic therapist – often works well for Vata disturbances. But make sure to talk it over with your body, see how you feel about it.
If the symptoms continue or worsen, it’s crucial to keep in touch with your healthcare provider, they can evaluate deeper issues if they arise. Ayurveda can support your path, but if it’s more than Vata, let’s make sure it gets checked out further!
