it is a long process and results depend on the patients prakriti, sarta and samhana ...

as the reports suggest a carcinoma donot be ignorant go to an ONCOLOGIST and get treated.

Ayurvedic medicines can work for support to give strength in the side effects caused by chemo and tabs.

Shatavari Kalp 1 tsp with a cup of milk twice a day will help counteract the weakness and ill effects of the alopathy treatment but thats all that can be done.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with over a decade of dedicated experience in both clinical and administrative roles. I began my professional journey with Jiva Ayurveda Pvt. Ltd. in Faridabad, where I spent 3 years offering telemedicine and in-clinic consultations, gaining valuable experience in patient-centered care and Ayurvedic treatment protocols. Following this, I served as a Medical Officer at Uttaranchal Ayurved College, Dehradun, for 7 years, where I was actively involved in both patient care and academic responsibilities, refining my clinical skills and deepening my understanding of traditional Ayurvedic practices. Currently, I am working as the Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital, a unit of Shivalik Ayurved Institute, Dehradun. In this role, I not only manage patient consultations but also oversee hospital operations, ensuring the delivery of quality healthcare services. Throughout my career, I have remained committed to promoting authentic Ayurveda, combining classical knowledge with modern healthcare systems to provide effective, safe, and holistic treatment solutions to my patients.

Hey Geet,
Ayurveda does not replace surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy in cancer. But it can support recovery, boost immunity, reduce side effects, and improve overall quality of life and emotional strength.
Pls get a personal consultation with ayurvedacharya.
I am giving an example of Ayurvedic Approach Based on Her Stage-

✅ If She Is Yet to Undergo Surgery/Chemo

Ayurvedic care is mainly supportive. Don’t delay oncological treatment.

Start immune-modulating herbs like:

Guduchi (Giloy)

Ashwagandha (balances vata and promotes strength)

Amalaki (Amla) – rich antioxidant

Turmeric (Haridra) – with piperine for better absorption

Kanchanar Guggulu – traditional formula for glandular swelling and lumps (consult before use)

✅ If She Has Started Chemo/Radiation

To reduce side effects (nausea, fatigue, poor digestion, low immunity):

Shatavari – rejuvenating and hormone-balancing

Triphala – for gut health and gentle detox

Brahmi or Mandukaparni (Gotu kola) – for mental calm and neuroprotection

Yashtimadhu (Licorice) – healing and anti-inflammatory

Wheatgrass or Aloe Vera Juice – cleansing and immune support

✅ If She's Post-Surgery or in Remission

Focus on rasayana chikitsa (rejuvenation):

Chyawanprash (if no diabetes)

Drakshadi Lehyam – for energy and strength

Abhyanga (oil massage) – with Dashmool taila or Bala taila
Yoga & Pranayama – specifically anulom-vilom, bhramari for emotional and endocrine support

Addressing breast cancer, particularly at Grade 2 stage, involves careful integration of modern medicine and appropriate Ayurvedic practices. It's crucial to follow the oncologist's treatment plan, which may include surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation—these are most effective in treating invasive carcinoma. Ayurveda can complement these interventions by supporting her body and mind during treatment. 

Ayurvedically, focusing on strengthening the immune system and balancing the doshas is important. She might begin with improvements in her diet: encourage a diet rich in fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes, which supports Kapha and Pitta balances. Avoid processed foods, excessive sugar, and red meats, which could aggravate imbalances.

In adapting her lifestyle, pranayama (breathing exercises) and meditation can reduce stress and improve mental clarity. Practices like Anulom Vilom or gentle yoga assist in enhancing Prana (life energy) and aid in mental peace.

Ayurvedic herbs may also play a role, after consulting with a knowledgeable practitioner. Ashwagandha helps in boosting immunity and reducing stress. Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, has anti-inflammatory properties and may support overall health. However, these should not replace medical treatment and should only be used as supportive measures.

Detoxification practices like Panchakarma can be considered post-treatment to help eliminate any residual toxins. However, this should be done under the guidance of a skilled Ayurvedic physician, and only when she is physically and mentally ready.

It's important to remember that Ayurveda here functions as a complementary approach. Cancer itself is a serious condition needing conventional treatment, and Ayurveda can play a supporting role in overall well-being and recovery, but not as a replacement therapy. Always communicate with her healthcare team to ensure that any Ayurvedic practices align harmoniously with her ongoing treatment.
