Hello madam Don’t worry , its common problem in youngsters you haven’t had period since last 3-4 months its a Temporary Amenorrhea

it may be due to hormonal imbalance , thyroid disorders, eating disorders.

initially you have to undergo some investigation to see any abnormalities CBC , ESR, SERUM ELECTROLYTES , USG ABDOMEN , THYROID PROFILE By physical examination and above investigations treatment can be decided. meanwhile I am advising you to undergo detoxification therapy

initially you have to go for detoxification of toxins in your body. for that you have to undergo

Deepana and Pachana therapy

Deepana means stimulating digestion treatment especially for kapha dosha. It is an essential procedure before therapeutic emesis (vamana) and therapeutic purgation (virechana).

The best form of food to kindle digestion is foods like fats/oils

Pachana :- means digestion, cooking, boiling, baking, softening. In medical treatments, it denotes digestion or promoting digestion. It is an important treatment for indigestion.

Later Panchakaram

Snehana one of the most important therapies that prepares the body to receive specialized Panchakarma treatment. It involves the application of medicated oils, ghee and herbs to the body internally and externally for three to seven days

Swedana helps in detoxification and reestablishing the balance between Vata, Pitta, and Kapha in the body. The sweat glands are one of the sources that eliminate toxins from the body

Vamana: Emesis Therapy, involves controlled, medically-induced vomiting. It is aimed to eliminate excess Kapha Dosha in the body which can otherwise trigger a series of ailments like acne, asthma, arthritis, chronic cold and diabetes

Virechana:the controlled therapeutic purging for a specific time. The main purpose of this treatment is to remove imbalanced or excess pitta dosha

By doing this your body will get Detoxification. you will feel Rejuvenation.

Now we will start medication

1]Triphala churna 1 spoon with 20ml warm water two times a day at (8am-8pm) after meals

2]Tab:Satavari Two times a day after meals

3]Ashoka Arista 20ml with warm water two times a day after meals

4]Hinguvastaka Churna half spoon with warm water before Bed time

Avoid Oily Spicy Cold foods Drink plenty of water , butter milk , coconut water Eat fruits Avoid sleeping at after noon Avoid eating heavy at night

ALL THE BEST . WISH YOU SPEEDY RECOVERY

The absence of menstruation, known as amenorrhea, for a prolonged period can be concerning, and I understand your worry. If your periods have been irregular from a young age and given your mother’s similar experiences, there might be a hereditary element or a hormonal imbalance at play. In Ayurveda, such issues might be related to an imbalance in the doshas, particularly Vata or Kapha, affecting the reproductive system.

Since you have mentioned that conditions like PCOD and thyroid issues have been ruled out, it is crucial to approach this concern holistically. Ayurveda offers insights and treatments that can help regulate your menstrual cycle by addressing the root cause of the imbalance.

Firstly, it’s important to examine your diet. Ensure it is nourishing and balanced to support your agni (digestive fire). Consider incorporating warm, easy-to-digest meals with herbs like ajwain and ginger to stimulate digestion and balance Vata dosha. You might try consuming turmeric milk (haldi doodh) in the evening for its anti-inflammatory properties, which can support hormonal balance.

Regularize your daily routine, aiming to maintain consistent sleep and wake times. This is key in stabilizing your body’s internal clock and reducing stress, which can significantly impact menstrual health.

Incorporating yoga and pranayama (breathing exercises) into your routine can also be beneficial. Asanas like Baddha Konasana (Bound Angle Pose) and Viparita Karani (Legs-up-the-Wall Pose) can support reproductive health and relieve stress. Practice Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing) to calm the nervous system.

However, given the complexity of menstrual health, and the potential implications for future fertility, I urge you to seek a detailed consultation with a healthcare professional or an Ayurvedic expert. They can offer diagnostic evaluations and tailored advice based on your specific prakriti (constitution) and symptoms. Immediate evaluation is crucial to rule out underlying conditions and to start therapeutic measures without delay.

While Ayurveda provides supportive treatments, integrating them with contemporary medical advice ensures comprehensive care. Always prioritize your health and seek professional attention when needed.

HELLO RINA,

You reported -periods that last over a months at a time -a gap of 3-4 months without menstruation -this pattern has existed since age 12 -you have no pcod or thyroid problems -your mother also had similar issues -youre now 22 years old, healthy otherwise but worried about fertility

this is a classical example of irregular and dysfunctional uterine bleeding , but in auveda we go deeper by looking at dosha imbalance, dhatu(tissue) health, agni(digestive/metabolic fire), and genetic influences

DOSHA=vata,pitta and kapha are the biological energies. menstrual disorders almost always involve vata and pitta

DHATU= menstruation is a function of Rasa(plasma), Rakta(blood) and Artava(reproductive tissue)

SROTAS= blockages or overflow in artavavaha srotas leads to irregularities

AGNI= impaired digestive fire disrupts hormone regulation and tissue nutrition

BEEJA DUSHTI= genetic or hereditary weakness of ovum/uterus . likely in your case, since you mother also had it

MANASIKA DOSHA= stress, anxiety, fear impact Apana Vata, which governs menstruation and fertility

AYURVEDIC CONDITIONS WHICH FITS YOUR CASE 1)ASRIGDHARA(EXCESSIVE/PROLONGED MENSTRUATION) -caused by pitta and rakta dushti -symptoms= long periods, weakness, clotting, or continuous spotting -your 1-month-long periods fits this

2)NASHTARTAVA/ARTAVA KSHAYA(SCANTY OR ABSENT MENSTRUATION) -caused by Vata imbalance or kapha obstruction -no period for months is. a sign of artava avarodha(blocked flow)

3)BEEJA DUSHTI(GENETIC REPRODUCTIVE TISSUE ISSUE) -hereditary causes -may affect ovulation or uterine lining health

TREATMENT GOAL -restore proper menstrual flow and timing -reduce heavy, prolonged bleeding -support regular ovulation and healthy uterine lining -cleanse toxins and improve hormonal balance -ensure smooth blood and hormonal flow to uterus -enhance nutrient absorption and hormone synthesis -build long term reproductive health and fertility potential

INTERNAL MEDICINES PLANNED FOR YOU(for 3 months continue)

1)ASHOKARISTA- 25ml with equal water wafter meals twice daily= regulates periods, reduce prolonged bleeding

2)LODHRASAVA- 25ml with equal water after meals twice daily= stops excessive bleeding, tones uterus

3)KUMARYASAVA- 25 ml with equal water, after meals twice daily= balance hormones, improves digestion

4)PUSHYANUG CHURNA- 2 gm with honey or ice water twice daily in morning and evening= astringent, stops heavy bleeding

5)SHATAVARI CHURNA- 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime= nourishes uterus, balance hormones

6)DASHMOOL KWATH- 50 ml decoction boiled and filtered on empty stomach twice daily= regulate vata, supports cycle

7)TRIPHALA CHURNA- 1 tsp with warm water at bedtie= detox, improves digestion and absorption

OPTIONAL IF WEAKNESS PERSIST

-DRAKSHARISHTA- 20 ml with water twice daily= after food improves blood, energy

-CHANDRAPRABHA VATI- 1 tab twice daily= if associated with urinary/reproductive weakness

DIET AND LIFESTYLE food is medicine in Ayurveda. healing start with digestion -warm,cooked meals- khichdi,rice,moong dal, ghee -black sesame seeds+jaggery(1 tsp daily) -raisins soaked overnight -cumin-fennel-coriander tea -cows ghee- strengthen reproductive system -dates,pomegranatembeetroot- nourish blood

AVOID -cold foods/drinks -raw salads-especially at night -spicy,sour,deeo fried foods -white sugar and processed foods -caffeine-dirupts hormnes -skipping meals or late dinners

Apana vata is also controlled by mental calmness stress is a major factor in delayed or erratic periods

-baddhakonasana -paschimottanasana -apanasana -setubandhasana -suryanamskar-6 rounds

Do these daily especially during luteal phase(day 15-28 of cycle if regular)

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances hormones -Bhramari= calms mind -Sheetali= cools down excess pitta

MENTAL CARE -practice mindfulness, mantra chanting -avoid suppression natural urges-like sleep, hunger, emotions

TEST ADVISED TO DO AS SOON AS POSSIBLE -Pelvic ultrasound- check endometrial lining or fibroids -FSH,LH,ESTROGEN, PROGESTERONE= hormone levels -PROLACTIN AND VITAMIN D=often linked o missed periods

CAN YOU HAVE CHILDREN IN FUTURE? yes, definitely possible- but treatment should begin now -long irregular periods usually mean hormonal and uterine lining imbalance -once apana vata is stabilise and bleeding is regular, ovulation improves naturally -hereditry influence does not mean infertility; it means you may need more support and time to regulate your cycle and conceive -many women with this history go on to have healthy pregnancy after restoring balance

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

Dr. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

Dr. Karthika
I am currently a PG 2nd yr student in the dept of Shalakya Tantra at Parul Institute of Ayurveda and Research, batch 2024. I joined right after UG—no break—straight into PG (regular batch). I did my undergrad from Rajiv Gandhi Ayurveda Medical College (2017 batch, CCRAS syllabus under Pondicherry Univ). Somehow managed to secure 2nd rank university-wide back then, which I didn’t totally expect. Right now, my core interest lies in the Ayurvedic and integrative management of eye disorders. I’ve got decent exposure to both classical texts and clinical practice. From anatomy to pathology, I try to stay grounded in both the traditional Ayurvedic view and also the modern opthalmic understanding, especially with conditions related to the cornea, retina, and anterior segment. During PG deputation in 2nd year, I handled like 200+ OPD patients daily within 1–2 hrs (felt crazy at first but got used to the pace). I’m also trained hands-on in cataract and cornea surgeries under supervision. Not calling myself a surgeon yet, but I did get a good amout of surgical exposure in the PG postings. In terms of academics, I got 82% in the first-year PG exams—distinction score—secured department 1st and university topper at Parul Institute. Sometimes I do wonder if all this speed actually lets me go deep into each case but I’m learning to balance efficiency with proper patient care. Honestly I think that’s the biggest challenge in clinical ayurveda today—staying rooted in shastra while also being practically useful in today's overloaded OPDs. Anyway, still got a lot to learn, but I try to show up with clarity, humility and the will to keep improving every day.

Dr. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

Dr. Sumi. S
I am an Ayurvedic doc trained mainly in Shalakya Tantra—basically, I work a lot with issues of the eyes, ears, nose, oral cavity, head... all that ENT zone. It’s a really specific branch of Ayurveda, and I’ve kind of grown to appreciate how much it covers. I deal with all kinds of conditions like Netra Abhishyanda (kinda like conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early or full-on cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma stuff), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Pratishyaya (chronic colds n sinus), Mukhapaka (mouth ulcers), and even dental stuff like Dantaharsha (teeth sensitivity) or Shirashool (headaches & migraines). I use a mix of classic therapies—Tarpana, Nasya, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, even Gandusha and Dhoomapana when it fits. Depends on prakriti, the season, and where the person’s really struggling. Rasayana therapy and internal meds are there too of course but I don’t just throw them in blindly... every plan’s got to make sense to that individual. It’s kind of like detective work half the time. But honestly, my clinical work hasn't been just about Shalakya. I’ve got around two yrs of broader OPD experience where I’ve also handled chronic stuff like diabetes, thyroid issues, arthritis flares, PCOS, IBS-type gut problems, and some hormonal imbalances in women too. I kind of like digging into the layers of a case where stress is playing a role. Or when modern bloodwork says one thing, but the symptoms are telling me something else entirely. I use pathology insights but don’t let reports override what the patient's body is clearly saying. That balance—between classical Ayurvedic drishtis and modern diagnostic tools—is what I’m always aiming for. I also try to explain things to patients in a way they’ll get it. Because unless they’re on board and actually involved, no healing really works long-term, right? It’s not all picture-perfect. Sometimes I still re-read my Samhitas when I'm stuck or double check new case patterns. And sometimes my notes are a mess :) But I do try to keep learning and adapting while still keeping the core of Ayurveda intact.
