Hello Sayli, In Ayurveda, PCOS is caused by an imbalance of Kapha and Vata doshas, leading to hormonal issues and irregular periods. A Kapha-pacifying diet with warm, light foods is recommended. Avoid sugary, oily, and processed foods. Herbs like Ashoka, Shatavari, and Guduchi help balance hormones.

For fibroadenomas, Kapha and Medo Dhatu imbalance cause the growth of lumps. Kanchanar Guggulu and Varanadi Kashayam are useful to reduce them. Turmeric and Manjistha help detoxify and reduce inflammation. Panchakarma therapies like Virechana and Basti cleanse the body.

Daily yoga, pranayama, and meditation manage stress and support hormone balance. Regular Ayurvedic check-ups ensure proper management.

Do you experience any other symptoms like weight gain, facial hair growth, or acne along with irregular periods? Have you noticed any changes in the size or pain of the fibroadenoma over time? How is your digestion and bowel movement? Do you often feel bloated or have sluggish digestion?

Hi Sayli,

To better understand your situation and provide personalized advice, could you share more about your current lifestyle? Specifically, what is your typical diet like, and do you experience significant stress or irregular sleep patterns? Also, have you noticed any recent changes in your weight, skin, or hair?

Dealing with PCOS and fibroadenomas definitely requires a lifestyle approach and some medical interventions. When it comes to managing irregular periods from PCOS, diet and exercise are your first pals. A diet complimenting your dosha type, especially focusing on reducing kapha (as PCOS often has a kapha dominance), can shift the balance. Think whole grains, veggies, lean proteins… skip the sugars and heavily processed foods. Not being too rigid but making mindful choices can help. Exercise, even like a brisk walk, at least 30 minutes a day, can work wonders on insulin sensitivity and weight—both keys in managing PCOS symptoms.

On the medication front, some might need the help of birth control pills to regularize menstrual cycles, but it’s always best coordinated with your healthcare provider. Each person responds differently, so tweaking might be needed. Acne and hirsutism (excessive hair) can calm down with these medications or anti-androgen therapy—again, a doctor can steer you best here.

Check-ups depend on one’s symptoms and fertility plans but aiming for annual exams (or more often as your doctor advises) to gauge fertility and general PCOS status, makes sense. Fibroadenomas need their own gentle watch - ultrasounds or mammograms might be recommended every six months or as your doc says. They rarely turn cancerous, but changes in size or pain should be checked out. Sometimes, removing them surgically is considered if they’re bothersome.

Ayurveda offers herbs like Ashoka and Shatavari for supporting female reproductive health, plus turmeric’s anti-inflammatory magic. Always good to chat with a practitioner about dosages and form—be it a tea, decoction, or capsule. Safety first!

Ah, fingers cramping a bit with all this info… but hope it gives you a start.👌 Always best to brainstorm with your health care team when diving into anything new. Stay curious, stay open, and you’ll find your balance. 🌿
