Acne, dry skin, and hirsutism can indeed be frustrating symptoms associated with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). According to Ayurveda, these symptoms are typically linked to imbalances in the Kapha and Pitta Doshas, as well as possible digestive issues impacted by agni (the digestive fire). Here, we’ll look at how you can work towards balancing these through natural means, using principles from Ayurveda.
Diet plays a crucial role in managing PCOS symptoms. Emphasize a diet rich in whole foods and fresh produce, while avoiding processed foods and excessive sugar. Incorporating foods that balance both Kapha and Pitta like bitter and astringent veggies — think leafy greens, cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, and beans such as lentils. Warm, cooked meals with moderate spices can aid in improving your agni. Ginger and turmeric are particularly beneficial.
Incorporating daily lifestyle changes like regular exercise can be immensely helpful in balancing doshas. Aim for activities that invigorate without overheating you: brisk walking, yoga poses such as malasana (garland pose) or supta baddha konasana (reclining bound angle pose), and cycling can be effective.
Herbs may also offer support, though it’s optimal to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized guidance. Ashwagandha is known for balancing hormones and might help in managing stress, which directly affects symptoms. Spearmint tea daily can help reduce hirsutism over time. Shatavari can be helpful for nourishing your reproductive system.
For your skin, apply a face pack made from sandalwood paste and rose water to help soothe and moisturize without irritating it; this might be done twice a week. Keeping your skin clean while using natural exfoliants like chickpea flour can help with acne too.
While it’s important to integrate these practices into your routine, it’s crucial to see a healthcare provider if you see no improvement or if your symptoms worsen. Ayurveda works best in conjunction with sound medical advice, so consider revisiting medical practitioners periodically to monitor your health.

HELLO CAMILIE,
WHAT IS PCOS? pcos is a hormonal imbalance where your ovaries make extra male hormones- androgens, leading to -irregular periods or no periods -acne -excess facial or body hair(hirsutism) -oily/dry skin -weight gain or difficulty losing weight -ovarian cysts on ultrasound
you mentioned acne, dry skin, hirsutism, and an ultrasound- conferred PCOS, which confirms the diagnosis
In Ayurveda, PCOS is seen as a condition caused by imbalance of all three doshas, especially kapha and vata. can be correlated to -Aarthava kshaya- deficient menstruation -Pushpaghni Revatva- an ovulation -Yonivyapad- disorder of the reproductive system
DOSHA INVOLVEMENT -KAPHA IMBALANCE- leads to cysts formation, weight gain, sluggish metabolism
-VATA IMBALANCE- causes irregular periods and dryness
-PITTA IMBALANCE- triggers acne and hormonal heat imbalance
TREATMENT GOALS 1)regulate hormones naturally 2)balance kapha and vata doshas 3)restore regular menstruation 4)reduce androgens- acne, hair growth 5)improve skin and metabolism 6)avoid long term side effects of synthetic hormones like Androcur and Provames
