What Is PCOD Full Form and How Can Ayurveda Help in Managing It? - #15000
I’ve been dealing with some irregular periods, acne, and weight gain, and after visiting my doctor, I was diagnosed with PCOD (Polycystic Ovary Disease). The doctor explained that PCOD is a hormonal disorder where the ovaries develop small cysts and that it affects the balance of reproductive hormones, which leads to these symptoms. I’ve been prescribed birth control pills and medications to regulate my periods, but I’m looking for natural ways to manage PCOD and its symptoms. I’ve heard that Ayurveda offers holistic treatments for PCOD that address the root cause rather than just the symptoms. Are there any Ayurvedic herbs that can help in regulating hormones, reducing cyst formation, and managing weight gain associated with PCOD? I’ve read about herbs like Shatavari and Ashwagandha—could they be useful in improving my hormonal balance and addressing PCOD symptoms? I’m also interested in Ayurvedic dietary recommendations. I’ve heard that foods with a low glycemic index and anti-inflammatory properties can help manage PCOD. What foods should I include or avoid in my diet to help manage PCOD? Are there any specific lifestyle practices like yoga or meditation that can support the healing process? Has anyone here dealt with PCOD and found success with Ayurvedic remedies? What herbs, foods, or practices helped you in managing the condition naturally?
