Hello Maria, In Ayurveda, we recommend focusing on a Pitta and Kapha-balancing diet, emphasizing foods that are light, dry, and easy to digest. Avoid sugary, fermented, and processed foods, as they can aggravate yeast overgrowth. Incorporating anti-fungal herbs like turmeric, neem, garlic, and coconut oil into your diet can be helpful. Probiotics, such as yogurt or fermented foods, can also help restore healthy gut flora and balance the body's microbiome. Have you had a recent vaginal swab or test to confirm the type of infection? Also, are you experiencing any other symptoms like digestive issues, fatigue, or changes in your menstrual cycle?

Dr. Prashant Kumar
I’m Dr. Prashant Kumar, a multi-specialty Ayurvedic doctor with over four years of experience in holistic and integrative healthcare. After earning my Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS), I deepened my expertise through focused study in several specialties, including Panchakarma therapy, herbal pharmacology, sexual health, cosmetology, general medicine, and dietetics. My clinical practice blends time-tested Ayurvedic wisdom with modern therapeutic approaches to offer personalized, results-driven care. My clinic is designed as a peaceful, healing space — a reflection of my belief that recovery begins in a calm, nurturing environment. I start each day with yoga and meditation, practices that help me stay grounded and attentive to every patient I see. I believe that effective treatment must go beyond physical symptoms, so my consultations involve a comprehensive assessment of emotional, mental, and lifestyle factors that influence health. I take a multi-disciplinary approach, often working closely with nutritionists, yoga practitioners, and wellness experts to build customized treatment plans. These may include herbal formulations, detox therapies like Panchakarma, dietary guidance, and lifestyle modifications tailored to each patient’s constitution or dosha. My work has helped patients manage and often reverse chronic conditions such as arthritis, gastrointestinal imbalances, skin disorders, metabolic issues, and stress-induced ailments. I’m deeply committed to educating my patients—not just about their current condition, but about how to maintain balance and long-term health through Ayurvedic principles. What sets my practice apart is my empathetic, patient-first approach. I’ve built strong, lasting relationships within the community, and I frequently conduct workshops on preventive care, Ayurvedic nutrition, seasonal wellness routines, and stress management. To me, Ayurveda is more than a profession—it’s a lifelong journey of growth, healing, and connection. My goal is to empower every patient to take charge of their health through awareness, discipline, and natural care.

Recurring yeast infections can be frustrating and uncomfortable. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this condition is often rooted in imbalances within the body's internal environment. Typically, yeast infections could be linked to an imbalance in Pitta and Kapha doshas, alongside potentially weakened digestive fire or Agni. The key is in addressing this using diet, lifestyle, and possibly suitable herbal allies. First, start by focusing on your diet. Incorporate foods that are light and easy to digest. Favor a Pitta and Kapha pacifying diet. Eat plenty of fresh vegetables. Opt for steamed or sautéed meals rather than raw or excessively oily dishes. Bitter greens like kale or spinach can help balance Pitta. Avoid sweets, fermented products, yeasted breads, and excessively sour or salty foods, which can exacerbate Candida growth. Stay hydrated with room-temperature or warm water, herbal teas such as ginger and turmeric, which aid digestion and help cleanse the system. Consuming half a teaspoon of trikatu powder (a blend of ginger, black pepper, and long pepper) with lukewarm water before meals can help stimulate Agni. Eating yogurt should be approached cautiously – consume it only in the day with a pinch of salt and cumin seed powder to boost digestion. Certain Ayurvedic herbs like neem and triphala can be beneficial. Neem stands out for its antifungal properties, and it can be taken in capsule form as per the recommended dosage on the package or prescribed by an Ayurveda practitioner. Triphala, used to balance all three doshas, can aid bowel regularity and cleanse the digestive tract. Create solid daily routine, trying to wake up and eat meals at the same time every day. This helps to regulate your internal clock, improve digestion, and balance doshas. Regular yoga sessions, focusing on practices like Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation) and poses that enhance circulation, can also support balance. Take care to wear breathable, cotton underwear to prevent moisture build up, which yeast thrives in. Furthermore, manage stress through meditation or mindfulness practices, as stress can weaken the immune system and affect body's natural balance. If symptoms persist, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider for guidance specific to your condition. It's always crucial to let your healthcare provider know about all herbal supplements and treatments you pursue, particularly alongside or in place of traditional medication.
