Why does ovulation pain happen every month, and is there an Ayurvedic way to ease it? - #16737

I am currently working as a Resident Doctor (R3) at the Institute of Teaching and Research in Ayurveda (ITRA), Jamnagar, in the Department of Rog Nidana (Ayurvedic Pathology and Diagnostics). My role involves extensive clinical exposure to diagnostic methodologies, integrating traditional Ayurvedic principles with modern investigative tools for accurate disease identification and management. With a strong focus on Rog Nidana and Vikriti Vigyana, I specialize in understanding disease pathology through Nidan Panchaka (five-fold diagnostic approach) and applying precise diagnostic techniques such as Nadi Pariksha (pulse examination), Ashtavidha Pariksha (eightfold examination), and laboratory investigations. During my residency, I have had the opportunity to work closely with a diverse patient population, dealing with chronic and lifestyle disorders, autoimmune conditions, and systemic imbalances. I am particularly interested in exploring the correlations between Ayurvedic diagnostic methods and modern pathology, aiming to enhance patient outcomes through a holistic and evidence-based approach. My clinical practice is rooted in detailed patient assessment, including Prakriti (body constitution) analysis, Dosha evaluation, and the application of Rog-Rogi Pariksha. I am committed to deepening my expertise in clinical diagnostics, research, and Ayurvedic therapeutic planning, with an emphasis on precision medicine as described in classical Ayurvedic texts. As a part of the academic environment at ITRA, I actively participate in departmental seminars, case discussions, and research activities, contributing to both patient care and the advancement of Ayurvedic diagnostics. My goal is to offer integrative, patient-centric care by combining ancient diagnostic wisdom with modern clinical insights, ensuring accurate assessment and personalized treatment protocols.

I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, an Ayurvedic physician from Maharashtra, committed to promoting authentic and effective Ayurvedic healing. I completed my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College, Kharghar, where I built a strong foundation in classical Ayurvedic science. After graduation, I was fortunate to be selected for the prestigious Certificate Course of Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi. Through this program, I had the unique opportunity to learn traditional and authentic Kerala Ayurveda under the mentorship of my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan, a highly respected name in the field. Currently, I am pursuing my MD in Panchakarma from the renowned Shri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara (SDM) Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This advanced training is enhancing my understanding of specialized Ayurvedic detoxification and rejuvenation therapies, allowing me to integrate classical Panchakarma techniques into modern clinical practice effectively. My clinical approach combines deep-rooted traditional knowledge with scientific understanding to offer personalized care for a variety of chronic and lifestyle disorders. I am passionate about utilizing Ayurveda not just for disease management but also for preventive healthcare and wellness promotion. I am dedicated to helping my patients achieve sustainable health by addressing the root cause of ailments through holistic treatments, Panchakarma therapies, lifestyle counseling, and dietetics.

I have been practicing as a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician since 1990, with over three decades of clinical experience in treating a wide range of chronic and lifestyle-related health conditions. My core areas of focus include hair disorders, skin diseases, and lifestyle disorders such as diabetes, arthritis, and stress-related imbalances. Over the years, I have developed a patient-centric approach that emphasizes deep-rooted healing through authentic Ayurvedic principles. My treatment philosophy is based on understanding the unique constitution (prakriti) and imbalance (vikriti) of each patient, allowing me to craft individualized care plans using classical formulations, diet corrections, detox therapies (shodhana), and lifestyle modifications. Whether it’s persistent hair fall, recurring skin allergies, or long-term metabolic disorders, I aim to address the root cause rather than just suppress symptoms. In the management of lifestyle disorders like diabetes and arthritis, I integrate Ayurvedic medicines with structured dinacharya (daily routines) and ahar (dietary guidance), focusing on sustainable results and long-term wellness. I also work extensively with stress-related concerns, offering holistic strategies that incorporate mind-body practices, including meditation, herbal support, and counseling rooted in Ayurveda. With a strong foundation in traditional Ayurvedic texts and decades of hands-on experience, I remain committed to providing safe, natural, and effective healthcare solutions. My goal is to guide patients toward a balanced life, free from chronic ailments, through personalized treatment protocols that restore harmony to both body and mind.
