Ovarian cyst 10 cm since 3 months - #22837

In Ayurveda, addressing a 10 cm ovarian cyst with the goal of reversal is indeed a complex and delicate matter. It's important to acknowledge that something of this size generally requires close medical attention. Conventional medicine's advice for surgery at this stage comes with its rationale, considering the size and potential complications, even in the absence of immediate symptoms like pain or irregular menstruation. Now, from an Ayurvedic perspective, managing an ovarian cyst relates largely to balancing the doshas, particularly the Kapha and Vata. These doshas, when imbalanced, may lead to the kind of stagnation and mass formation you might see with a cyst. While Ayurveda does offer therapies aiming at pacifying these doshas, the efficacy and safety of such therapies when applied to large cysts is something to cautiously consider. In your case, if you’re keen on exploring Ayurveda, it’s essential to have a two-pronged approach. One that works alongside ongoing medical evaluation: Start with a focus on Kapha pacifying diet. Reduce intake of dairy products, red meat, and excess oils as they might contribute to Kapha aggravation. Emphasize more on light, warm foods, spices like ginger and turmeric, which assist digestion and circulation. Regular herbal protocols is another consideration: herbs such as Varuna (Crataeva nurvala) and Kanchanar (Bauhinia variegata) play a role traditionally in maintaining reproductive system health. But these should be used under the guidance of a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner, considering your specific constitutional needs. Stress management through gentle yoga and meditation is advisable to support overall balance. However, I encourage caution here—make sure to have regular follow-ups with your gynecologist to monitor the condition. Ayurvedic interventions can support and improve your well-being but must not replace recommended surgical evaluation if the medical team finds it urgent or necessary. Therefore, balance both worlds carefully.
