Jahnavi, your endometriotic cysts indicate an underlying imbalance in your body, particularly related to Vata and Pitta doshas. Ayurveda focuses on treating the root cause rather than just shrinking the cysts temporarily. Since you’ve already tried contraceptive pills and the cysts keep returning, you need a holistic Ayurvedic approach to balance your hormones, improve circulation, and prevent cyst formation. • Kanchnar Guggulu – A powerful remedy to shrink cysts and reduce Kapha accumulation. Dosage: 1 tablet twice daily after food with warm water. • Asoka aristha Dosage: 2 tbsp with an equal amount of water twice daily after food • Shatavari Churna – Dosage: 1/2tsp with warm milk or water before bedtime. • Triphala Churna – Dosage: 1 tsp with lukewarm water at night.
• Abhyanga (Oil Massage) – Use castor oil or sesame oil to massage the lower abdomen daily.
• Nadi Swedana (Herbal Steam) – Apply mild heat on the pelvic area with Dashmool decoction.
• Basti (Medicated Enema) – Regular use of Matra Basti with Kshira Bala Taila helps regulate reproductive health.
• Avoid dairy, processed foods, excess sugar, and deep-fried items, as they aggravate cyst formation.
• Include flaxseeds, sesame seeds, turmeric, ginger, garlic, cumin, and fenugreek in your diet.
• Drink coriander seed water (soak 1 tsp coriander seeds overnight and drink in the morning).
• Take warm water with lemon first thing in the morning to aid detoxification.
Daily exercise: Walking, yoga (especially Baddha Konasana, Supta Baddha Konasana, and Bhujangasana) helps improve blood circulation to the ovaries.
Avoid stress: Stress aggravates hormonal imbalances. Practice meditation and deep breathing regularly.
Sleep well: Ensure 7-8 hours of sound sleep to allow hormonal repair.
By following these Ayurvedic medicines, therapies, and lifestyle modifications, you can manage endometriotic cysts naturally and improve your chances of conception. Since this condition is recurring, a 3-6 month Ayurvedic treatment with regular monitoring will be essential.

Hello Jahnavi, Have you had any recent ultrasounds or other diagnostic tests to monitor the cysts’ growth? Additionally, how long have you been on thyroid medication, and have you noticed any changes in your thyroid function since starting it? Ayurveda offers various approaches, including herbal formulations like Ashokarishta, Shatavari, and Guduchi, which can help balance hormonal levels and support reproductive health.
Endometriotic cysts can be a challenging condition, and Ayurveda offers some tools that might help in balancing your body. An endometriotic cyst, also called a chocolate cyst, involves an imbalance primarily related to the ‘Apana Vayu’ and ‘Rakta Dhatu’ according to Ayurvedic principles. Addressing your diet, lifestyle, and incorporating certain herbs can support you; however anyone with such conditions is also advised to consult their healthcare provider before making any significant changes.
Firstly, consider following a Pitta-pacifying diet. This means reducing spicy, fried, and overly salty or sour food in your daily intake. Instead, focus on cooling foods like cucumber, melons, and leafy greens. Incorporating a bit of turmeric in meals can also help due to its anti-inflammatory properties.
For herbal support, you might find benefit in Ashoka (Saraca asoca) which is known to support the balance of hormones and assist reproductive health. Take it as a standardized supplement or as a decoction. For decoctions, simmer 1 teaspoon of Ashoka bark in 2 cups of water until it reduces to one cup, and sip it warm, twice daily.
Castor oil packs are another traditional method. Apply warm castor oil on the lower abdomen, lay a sheet of cotton flannel over the site, and then place a heating pad on top. Do this 3 times a week, but avoid it during menstruation.
Practicing regular yoga and meditation can also be supportive in managing stress levels, which can exacerbate hormonal imbalances. Poses like Supta Baddha Konasana (Reclining Bound Angle Pose) are particularly beneficial for reproductive health.
Remember, these suggestions should serve as part of a comprehensive approach to your wellness, including regular medical consultation. Monitoring your symptoms and maintaining a dialogue with your healthcare provider is essential.
