Managing Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) through Ayurveda focuses on lifestyle, diet, and herbal treatments rooted in balancing the doshas—primarily Vata and Pitta, as they often play a role in this condition. Start by assessing your current lifestyle and dietary habits to ensure they align with Ayurvedic principles aimed at improving prostate health.

Since you’re already vegetarian, you can optimize your diet by incorporating cooling and anti-inflammatory foods. Take plenty of vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, and kale. Include pumpkin seeds, which are known for supporting prostate health. Avoid overly spicy, salty, or sour foods that might aggravate Pitta dosha. Stay hydrated with plenty of water, but avoid liquids right before bedtime to reduce frequent urination at night.

Herbal remedies such as Gokshura (Tribulus terrestris), Varuna (Crataeva nurvala), and Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa) are traditionally used to support urinary and prostate health. You might consider taking these under the guidance of a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner, as they can help reduce swelling and improve urinary flow.

Practicing Yoga and Pranayama can also be beneficial. Regular practice can help maintain stress levels, which is important, since chronic stress can worsen symptoms. Focus on poses like Vajrasana and Supta Baddha Konasana, which improve circulation in the pelvic region.

Abhyanga (Ayurvedic oil massage) with warm sesame oil can facilitate relaxation and balance Vata. Doing this regularly helps the body cope better with stress and promotes overall balance.

Keep in close communication with your healthcare provider about any new treatments you’re trying, ensuring that they cohere well with your ongoing medication and health needs. If your symptoms become severe, it’s critical to prioritize your health by seeking immediate medical care without delay. Balance is essential—both in what you consume and how you live. Ayurveda is holistic, but safety is paramount when dealing with longstanding medical conditions like BPH.
