Namaste,
I understand how stressful this situation can be, especially when you are trying to conceive. PCOS is a condition of hormonal imbalance, mainly linked to aggravated Kapha and Vata doshas, leading to irregular ovulation, weight gain, and menstrual disturbances. However, Ayurveda believes that PCOS is reversible with the right lifestyle, diet, and herbal support. Since your PCOS is recent, we can work on balancing your hormones naturally to improve ovulation and increase your chances of conception. Have you noticed excessive hair growth on the face/body or hair thinning on the scalp? Do you have acne or oily skin? How is your digestion – do you experience bloating, constipation, or acidity? Are you able to get proper sleep, or do you feel anxious and restless? Do you crave sugar or experience sudden hunger pangs? Have you done a thyroid test and hormone test (AMH, LH/FSH ratio, insulin levels)? Increase fiber & protein intake – Have whole grains (quinoa, millets), sprouts, dal, and paneer. Reduce sugar & dairy – Avoid refined sugar, excess dairy, and processed foods as they aggravate Kapha. Consume more warm foods – Drink warm water, herbal teas, and light home-cooked meals. Eat fenugreek seeds (Methi) – Soak overnight & chew in the morning Drink fennel tea – Helps regulate cycles and improves ovulation. Avoid late-night eating & heavy dinners Walk for at least 30 minutes daily. Yoga Asanas for PCOS: Baddha Konasana (Butterfly Pose) Malasana (Squat Pose) Dhanurasana (Bow Pose) Supta Baddha Konasana (Reclining Butterfly) Pranayama (Breathing Techniques): • Bhramari & Anulom Vilom – Reduces stress hormones. Meanwhile you can start the above diet changes and lifestyle modifications , once I get the reports and the answers for my queries will start on medications

Can you share your daily eating habits and physical activity levels? Have you had any recent tests, such as hormone levels (like LH, FSH, testosterone), ultrasound imaging, or blood sugar tests? Also, how do you manage stress, and have you been experiencing any other symptoms like acne, excessive hair growth, or mood swings?From an Ayurvedic perspective, PCOS is often linked to an imbalance in Vata (which governs movement and metabolism) and Kapha (which governs growth and lubrication). The imbalance leads to hormonal disturbances, irregular periods, and metabolic issues. Ayurveda emphasizes balancing the doshas, particularly addressing Pitta and Kapha imbalances, which may be contributing to the condition. Shatavari is known to support female reproductive health and regulate menstrual cycles. Ashwagandha can help reduce stress and balance hormone levels, while Turmeric helps to reduce inflammation and improve overall circulation to the reproductive organs. Additionally, Triphala can aid digestion and support detoxification, which is crucial for hormonal balance.In terms of lifestyle changes, maintaining a balanced, anti-inflammatory diet rich in whole foods, vegetables, and healthy fats (like omega-3s from flaxseeds or fish) will support both fertility and hormonal balance. Managing stress through relaxation techniques, yoga, or meditation can also have a significant impact on reversing PCOS symptoms.

PCOS can definitely be a roadblock, but it’s not necessarily permanent. It’s good that you reached out to a doctor; understanding stress n weight gain play their parts is key. Probably it’s because cortisol - the stress hormone, loves to mess with reproductions.
In Ayurveda, we work on balance and optimizing your body’s natural rhythms. Though it ain’t magic, consistency can really help. First off, diet plays huge roles. Focus on a kapha-pacifying diet since PCOS is often linked to kapha imbalances. Include plenty of warm, cooked, and lightly spiced foods. Try using spices like turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, and cumin which help in reducing kapha and ama (toxins). Avoid processed sugar and refined carbs, they aggravate imbalance. Favor complex carbs like quinoa, brown rice.
Exercise is next. Sticking to a moderate routine like brisk walking for 30 mins a day can aid weight loss and reduce insulin resistance which is often tied to PCOS. But don’t overdo it as excessive exercise can stress the body further.
As for stress, integrating calming activities like yoga or pranayama into your daily schedule can work wonders. Deep breathing and meditation help lower cortisol levels as well. Sleep well, aim for 7-8 hours per night.
Herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari have shown benefits - but discussing with an ayurvedic practitioner before consuming any supplements is wise to make sure it’s the right fit for your prakriti.
A regular routine helps. Try to wake up and eat meals at the same times daily. Your body loves routines.
Keep the faith. The body is adaptable, just give it bit of time. If things seem slow moving, your healthcare provider’s there for support and guidance through this process. And girl, patience is golden, take care of your mental health, it’ll make this journey more bearable.
