Hello mam.... Its normal in diabetes & post menopause stage
Kindly add walking in your daily routine... Burn the calories double you intake...
Visit some panchakarma center's & take udwarthana procedure with Virechana if you are comfortable...
It will work 👍

Postmenopausal weight gain, especially due to hormonal shifts and slowed metabolism, can be quite stubborn. Since your thyroid levels are borderline, it's important to monitor them every 6 months.
Below is a recommended Ayurvedic plan, including medication, diet, and lifestyle modifications:
Medications:
1. Medohar Vati – 1 tablet twice daily
2. Chandraprabha Vati – 1 tablet twice daily
3. Triphala powder – 1/2 teaspoon at bedtime with lukewarm water
---
Diet Plan (Simple & Sattvic):
Eat:
Warm, light, and freshly cooked meals
Moong dal khichdi with vegetables (cleansing and nourishing)
Millets like ragi and bajra, in moderation (2–3 times a week)
Cow ghee (1/2 tsp per day) to support fat metabolism
Spices such as turmeric, ginger, and black pepper
Avoid:
Raw salads or cold food
White sugar, refined flour (maida), and fried items
Heavy meals at night (prefer light soups or dal-chapati before 7 PM)
Curd and heavy dairy products
---
Lifestyle Modifications:
Morning walk or gentle yoga for at least 30 minutes daily
Include Kapalabhati and Uddiyana Bandha to target abdominal fat

Weight gain after menopause can be quite common, especially when the hormonal balances shift. In Ayurveda, this can be linked to the predominant Kapha dosha, which naturally tends to increase with age, and can lead to accumulation and stagnation, manifesting as weight gain and inflammation. Let's delve into a more customized strategy that considers your unique constitution and current condition.
Firstly, focus on igniting your digestive fire, or "Agni," which might have become sluggish. Drinking warm water throughout the day can be a simple but effective way to stimulate Agni. You might also include herbal teas such as ginger, turmeric, and cinnamon – which are known to enhance digestion and reduce inflammation.
Dietary changes are crucial. Try to incorporate light, easily digestible foods into your meals. Avoid heavy, creamy, and oily foods that can aggravate Kapha. Instead, opt for a diet rich in warm, cooked vegetables, whole grains like quinoa and barley, and lean proteins such as lentils and mung beans. Spices like cumin, coriander, and fennel can be added to aid digestion. Eating your main meal at midday, when digestion is strongest, can also help in metabolizing food more efficiently.
Regular exercise is essential to balance Kapha dosha. While yoga and walking are excellent, you may consider integrating more vigorous activities, like brisk walking or light cycling, if feasible. The key is to keep the body moving regularly, at least for 30 minutes a day.
Stress management is another aspect to look at, as it can aggravate weight gain. Regular practices of meditation, deep breathing, or mindfulness can keep stress levels in check.
Additionally, consider Ayurvedic herbs under professional guidance. Guggulu, Triphala, and Punarnava are known for their benefits in managing weight and ensuring proper metabolism—these must be taken according to your specific body type and imbalances.
While Ayurveda offers many natural methods, it's also valuable to work alongside medical professionals. Regular check-ups with your doctor, including thyroid and hormone level evaluations, can ensure there's no underlying medical condition interfering with weight loss efforts. Balancing modern medicine with traditional practices can often provide the most holistic approach to health.
