Hello Kinjal,
PCOS according to Ayurveda is an imbalance in the Agni (metabolic apparatus of the body ) & the kapha , Vata Dosha. You haven’t mentioned about your weight & status of your stools. Overall the management has to be Kapha reducing foods & lifestyle.
1. Avoid excessive heavy oily fried processed food especially around ovulation.
2. Avoid sedentary lifestyle.
3. Exercise atleast 1 hour daily. Surya namaskar is recommended. Aerobic exercise, Swimming & Jogging can be practiced too.
4. Castor oil abdominal packs everyday before bath to be practiced religiously.
5. Include seeds like pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds in the diet regular.
6. Drink water boiled with coriander seeds & dry ginger starting from 15 days before periods.
Do consult me for further guidance. PCOS can be reversed in 3-6 months completely with Ayurvedic management.

To reverse Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and manage its symptoms, including facial hair growth, a holistic approach incorporating lifestyle changes, dietary adjustments, Ayurvedic medicines, and Panchakarma treatments is essential. Start by adopting a balanced diet rich in whole foods, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats while avoiding refined carbohydrates and sugars that can worsen insulin resistance. Incorporate low-glycemic index foods like legumes and nuts to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
For Ayurvedic support, herbal remedies such as spearmint tea can help reduce testosterone levels and improve hirsutism, while cinnamon and fenugreek seeds can aid in managing insulin levels. Ashwagandha is another beneficial herb that can help reduce stress and promote hormonal balance. Additionally, Shatavari can support female reproductive health and regulate menstrual cycles.
Panchakarma treatments can further enhance the management of PCOS. Virechana (therapeutic purgation) helps detoxify the body and balance hormones, while Basti (medicated enemas) can improve digestion and enhance reproductive health. Abhyanga (oil massage) can promote relaxation, improve circulation, and aid in hormonal balance, while Shirodhara (pouring of warm oil on the forehead) can help reduce stress and anxiety.
Regular exercise, including aerobic activity and strength training, is crucial for improving insulin sensitivity and weight management. Practicing stress management techniques like yoga and ensuring adequate sleep will further support hormonal balance. For facial hair management, consider gentle methods like threading or waxing, and applying a turmeric paste may help reduce hair growth over time. Additionally, ensure sufficient intake of B vitamins and zinc to support hormonal balance.

Reversing PCOD naturally is a journey, but with patience and commitment, changes can happen. You're dealing with quite a few symptoms, right? Facial hair, fatigue, irregular periods, that heavy tummy feeling, mood swings—these could be linked to imbalanced doshas. Typically, PCOD connects to Kapha and Vata imbalances, so addressing these might bring some relief.
First, food really is medicine here. Aim for a Kapha-pacifying diet, reducing dairy and sugar, which maybe causing you more trouble. Eat more fresh vegetables, whole grains like barley or quinoa, and legumes. Spices are your friends here; ginger, turmeric, and cumin can support Agni (digestive fire).
Exercise is key too—even just light movement like yoga or walking about 30 minutes daily helps in balancing hormones. Try pranayama—breathing techniques like Kapalbhati may support you too, clearing excess Kapha.
For the facial hair, much patience is needed. The herb spearmint tea, if you consume it twice daily, has been known to reduce high androgen levels—this could help with excessive hair. Apply a paste of turmeric and water on unwanted hair, leave it on for some time, and wash it off with lukewarm water. This approach might lighten the hair over time.
Manage stress with meditation. Mood swings often flare with high stress—sitting quietly for just 10 min a day can work wonders. Sleep is also super underrated! Aim for consistent, quality rest.
But remember, if symptoms persist or get worrying, see a health professional pronto. Keep monitoring and adjusting your lifestyle to see what brings the balance back, and give your body the time it needs to respond kindly.
