Hello Khushi Kumari I can understand your concern regarding pcod. PCOD at the age of 21 is very common today but dont worry we are here to help you out. 😊

AYURVEDIC PERSPECTIVE

In Ayurveda, PCOD comes under Aartav Vaha Srotas Dushti involving Kapha aggravation which leads to cyst formation➡️ weight gain Vata Aggrevation ➡️ irregular periods, bloating Pitta imbalance ➡️ acne, mood swings, hair fall

That’s why PCOD shows up as ✅ Delayed or scanty periods ✅ Belly fat or weight gain ✅ Acne and hair fall ✅ Mood swings or anxiety

SHE CARE JUICE IS IT ENOUGH FOR YOU?? Krishna’s She-Care Juice contains herbs like Aloe vera, Ashoka, Lodhra, and Shatavari which help regulate periods & hormones, but it’s not enough alone for weight or fat reduction.

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT

✅Internal Ayurvedic Medicines ( FOR 3 MONTHS)

1 She-Care Juice (continue) 20–30 ml twice daily Helps in Hormone regulation 2 Slim lim 2-0-2 after food 3 Kanchanar Guggulu 2-0-2 daily after meals Helps in Shrinking ovarian cysts 4 M 2 tone tab 1-0-1 after food regulates menses 5 Panchajeeraka rasayana 1 tsp at bed time ( balances pitta and improves reproductive organs

✅ Daily Exercise/Yoga (Minimum 30 mins/day)

☑️Surya Namaskar (5–10 rounds) ☑️Setu Bandhasana (Bridge Pose) Improves pelvic circulation ☑️ Squats Reduces belly fat ☑️Anulom Vilom & Bhramari Relieves stress (which worsens PCOD)

☑️Even brisk walking, cycling or Zumba helps consistency matters mosts

✅ Diet to Cut Belly Fat ✅ Include:

Jeera + ajwain + methi water (boil 1 tsp each in 1L water – sip all day) Soaked almonds + walnuts + pumpkin seeds in morning Moong dal, brown rice, lauki, methi, spinach Amla, lemon, papaya, coconut water Cow ghee (1 tsp daily) – improves hormone transport Herbal teas: Shatavari + tulsi + cinnamon tea

❌ Avoid:

Maida, bakery, chips, pizza Dairy (especially cheese, paneer, cold milk) Refined sugar, soft drinks Too much rice at night Stress eating and irregular meal timing

✅ Daily Routine (Dinacharya) Tips

Wake up before 7 am Drink warm water with lemon or cumin Eat breakfast before 9 am (avoid skipping) Avoid late dinners — eat by 7:30 pm max Sleep by 10:30–11 pm — hormone repair happens during sleep

You are young, Khushi and Ayurveda can absolutely help you reverse PCOD. You just need to stay regular and patient.

Wishing you balanced hormones, confident health, and a strong YOU

Warm. Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

HI KHUSHI , DONT WORRY , You’re currently experiencing weight gain (especially belly fat), irregular periods, and possibly acne, hair fall, or mood swings. All of these are classic signs of PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease)a hormonal condition that happens due to imbalances in how your body processes insulin and hormones like estrogen and androgens.

Now don’t worry – this is very common, very manageable, and definitely reversible IN AYURVEDA

SO LET ME FIRST EXPLAIN What’s happening inside your body? 1.Kapha-Vata dosha aggravation – which leads to cyst formation and sluggish metabolism 2.Artavavaha srotas avarana – blocked reproductive pathways 3.Agnimandya (weak digestion) and Meda dhatu vitiation – causes stubborn belly fat 4.Rasa–Rakta dushti – affects skin, mood, and hair

So instead of just treating symptoms like acne, hair fall, or missed periods, we must unblock these pathways, reset metabolism, and balance your cycle naturally.

SO OUR MOTO HERE SHOULD BE TO: -Break down excess meda (fat) and clear kapha accumulation -Stimulate timely ovulation and clean the artava channels -Strengthen digestion (Agni) and support liver-hormone balance -Restore your natural period cycle -Reduce stress-related hormonal blocks

I WILL SHARE YOU THE TREATMENT PROTOCOLS WHICH SHOULD BE DONE FOR U IN THIS CONDITION: IF U HAVE ANY DOUBT IN THE WAY OR METHOD OF ADMINISTRATING THIS MEDICINES FEEL FREE TO ASK :

Internal Medicines (Start for 30–45 days)

1.Rajapravartini Vati – 1 tab twice daily before food → Helps regulate periods naturally by stimulating Apana Vayu. 2.Kanchanara Guggulu – 2 tabs thrice daily after food → Breaks cysts, reduces thyroid sluggishness, and detoxifies. 3.Triphala Guggulu – 2 tabs at night → Burns stubborn belly fat, clears channels gently. 4.Varanadi Kashayam – 60 ml + 60 ml warm water, twice daily before food → Improves fat metabolism and reduces kapha–meda. 5.Lodhrasavam – 15 ml + 15 ml water after food, twice daily → Clears skin, balances hormones. 6.Krishna’s She Care Juice – Continue 20 ml morning & night on empty stomach Supports hormonal cleansing.

External Therapies:

1.Udvartana (Herbal dry powder massage) – 3 times/week → Reduces belly fat and sluggish kapha. 2.Takra Dhara / Shirodhara (if stress, sleep issues, or anxiety are high) → Calms the mind and balances Vata. 3.Basti therapy (if symptoms are chronic or fertility planning in future) → Vata anulomana, hormonal reset.

Diet Chart – What to Eat & What to Avoid ❌ Avoid:

Milk, curd, bakery items, cold drinks Maida, sugar, late-night eating, overeating ✅ Include:

Horsegram soup (Kulattha) – 3x/week Soaked methi + jeera water every morning Early dinner by 7:30 PM Cooked vegetables, warm water, bitter veggies Ghee in moderation (supports hormones without weight gain) - Intermittent fasting (14:10) helps in fat burn – try from dinner to next lunch if possible.

-Yoga + Lifestyle Routine 20 mins brisk walk or Surya Namaskar (10 rounds) daily -Yoga asanas: Baddha Konasana (for pelvic circulation) Malasana (gut & ovary support) Setu Bandhasana (hormone reset) -Pranayama: Kapalabhati (clears fat toxins) Anulom Vilom (balances hormones) Bhramari (reduces anxiety) Sleep by 10:30 PM – this is when your hormones get repaired.

Q: Why belly fat specifically? A: Because PCOS causes insulin resistance + kapha accumulation, which stores fat around the abdomen. Q: Will I need these medicines forever? A: Not at all. These help for 3–6 months until your cycle and metabolism reset. Then we shift to Rasayana (rejuvenation). Q: Can I conceive later if I have PCOD now? A: Yes, many women with PCOS conceive naturally once srotas are cleared and hormones reset. Q: Will this plan help hair fall, acne too? A: Yes! All skin, hair, and mood symptoms are part of the same hormonal imbalance — once that’s corrected, everything improves. THANK YOU REGARDS - DR.KARTHIKA

Stri rasyana vati- Kanchanar guggulu- Medohara vati- 1 tab twice daily after food with lukewarm water

Managing PCOD and reducing belly fat in Ayurveda involves focusing on balancing hormones, reducing Kapha and balancing Vata doshas. Here’s how you can tackle this:

First, pay attention to your diet. Avoiding processed foods and those high in sugar and refined carbs is crucial. Instead, introduce more fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains like quinoa or brown rice into your meals. Spices such as fenugreek, turmeric, and cinnamon can be beneficial as they enhance the metabolism, so try including these in your daily cooking.

Maintaining a routine is beneficial for balancing Vata dosha, so eat meals at regular times. Start your day with warm water infused with lemon, it’s a simple habit but helps in cleansing and boosting metabolism. Always opt for warm, cooked meals as opposed to raw foods since they are easier to digest.

It’s essential to engage in regular physical activity. Yoga can be particularly beneficial in PCOD, especially asanas like Surya Namaskar, which is great for weight loss and overall detoxification. Practice it daily, if possible, along with Pranayama like kapalbhati and anulom-vilom to increase circulation and improve hormonal balance.

Herb-wise, it seems you’re already using the Krishna herbal she care juice. You might also consider supplementing with Ashwagandha, known for reducing stress and calming Vata, but remember to consult your Ayurvedic practitioner for dosage and compatibility with what you’re already taking.

Avoid sleeping late, as it’s important to maintain a sleep routine that supports hormonal balance. Going to bed early and waking up before sunrise is ideal.

Hydration is vital—drink plenty of water throughout the day to help your body flush out toxins.

Finally, regular massages with warm sesame oil can help to pacify Vata, promote relaxation and stimulate circulation, aiding in weight management.

If symptoms persist or escalate, it’s important reach out to an Ayurvedic practitioner or healthcare provider for personalized advice.

HELLO KHUSHI,

PCOD means that your ovaries are not working normally. Instead of releasing one healthy egg every month, your ovaries are producing many small immature eggs that stay inside and form small fluid- filled sacs or cysts

Think of your body as a system of hormones that must stay in balance.

IN PCOD -the body makes too many male hormones which women also have in small amounts - this stops ovulation, causing irregular or no periods -it also affect insulin, a hormone that controls blood sugar. If insulin is not working properly(insulin resistance), it makes the body gain weight and worsens pcod.

In Ayurveda, PCOD is caused by an imbalance in the kapha and vata doshas, leading to -ama(toxins) blocking the channels in your ovaries -slow metabolism(poor digestion- weak agni) - hormonal irregularities - stress(aggravates vata) adding to iiregularity

IF YOUR PCOD IS TREATED WELL, WEIGHT IS ALSO MANAGABLE

FIRST FOCUS ON PCOD TREATMETN

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) M2 TONE SYRUP(by charak)= 2 tsp twice daily after meals = helps ovaries work better, bring back your periods regularly

2) KANCHANAR GUGGULU( baidyanth/ AVP)= 2 tabs twice dailyafter meals with warm water = melts small cysts in your ovaries, supports thyroid and weight loss

3) ASHOKARISHTA(baidyanth/dabur)= 2 tsp with equal water twice daily after meals = regulates periods, reduces heavy bleeding and pain, supports uterus

4) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime = clears toxins from your body and improves digestion

5) EVECARE CAPSULES(by himalaya)= 1 cap twice daily after meals =balances hormones, improves ovarian function, regularises periods

DIET PLAN

FOODS TO INCLUDE

1) WHOLE GRAINS -millets= foxtail, barnyard, kodo, little millet- regulate insulin and reduce fat -quinoa, amaranth, red/brown rice -rolled oats(not instant)

2) VEGETABLES -focus on bitter, pungent, and astringent food -bitter gourd, drumstick, methi -cabbage, cauliflower, spinach, ash gourd -avoid raw salads, cook lightly and digestive spices

3) FRUITS(LOW GLYCEMIC) -amla=fresh or churna -pomegrante -apples, pears, papaya, berries

4) PROTEINS -Plant based= Moong dal, massor dal, horse gram, sprouted lentils -Animal based (if non veg)= boiled eggs, grilled fish(2 times/week)

5) HEALTHY FATS -cold pressed sesame oil -ghee=1 tsp/day -flax seed oil -seeds= flax, chia, pumpkin seeds- support estrogen balance

6) HERBS AND SPICES -turmeric, cinnamon, fenugreek, cumin, coriander, ajwian, -black pepper+ ginger

FOODS TO AVOID -cold and raw foods like smoothies, raws salads - sugar and white bread=causes weight gain and acne -fried or packaged foods= increases toxins -milk,panner,cheese= can make cysts worse -stress and late night= disrupts hormones

LIFESTYLE CHANGES FOR DEEP HEALING

1) DAILY RHYTHM -wake up before 7 am= sets hormonal rhythm -hydration=warm water with lemon+pinch of turmeric or methi seeds water(soaked overnight) -meal timing= eat meals at regular intervals; no skipping -sleep= sleep by 10-10:30 pm to optimise melatonin and cortisol balance -avoid excessive screen time, especially before sleep

DETOX PRACTICES TO FOLLOW these helps removes toxins and reduce cyst formation -Triphala churna= 1 tsp at night with warm water -CASTOR OIL=montly one 10 ml in milk at night -Self oil massage= sesame oil daily before shower -TAKRA- buttermilk spiced with cumin and ginger daily after lunch

YOGA AND MOVEMENT

BEST YOGA ASANAS -malasana= opens pelvic region -baddha konasana= improves circulation to ovaries -Bhujangasana= stimulates abdominal organs -setu bandhasana= balances thyroid and pelvic hormones -suryanamskar= 5-7 rounds

PRANAYAM -nadi sodhana= balances hormones, calms mind - bhramari= reduces anxiety and supports pitutary -kapalbhati= light version, support metabolism

MIND BODY CONNECTION PCOD is deeply linked with stress and emotional stagnation -practicue gratitude journaling, emotional release -engage in art, music, or nature therapy -reduce overthinking and over working- both aggravate vata

DO FOLLOW THIS CONSISTENTLY FOR 3 MONTHS

AND FOLLOW DIET FOR 3-6 MONTHS TO LOOSE WEIGHT

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh
I am Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh, born and raised in Punjab where culture and traditions almost naturally guided me toward Ayurveda. From very early days I felt more drawn to natural ways of healing, and this curiosity finally led me to pursue Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) at Shri Dhanwantry Ayurvedic College, Chandigarh—an institution known for shaping strong Ayurvedic physicians. During those years I learned not only the classical texts and treatment methods, but also how to look at health through a very practical, human lense. For the past five years I worked in clinical practice, where patients come with wide range of concerns—from chronic digestion troubles to autoimmune illness—and I try to integrate both Ayurveda and modern medical knowledge to give them the most complete care I can. Sometimes western diagnostics help me to understand the stage of disease, while Ayurveda helps me design treatment that address root cause. This bridging approach is not always easy, but I believe it’s necessary for today’s health challanges. Currently I am also pursuing higher studies in Panchakarma therapy. Panchakarma is an area I feel very strongly about—it is not just detox, it is a whole system of cleansing, rejuvenation, rebalancing, and I want to deepen my expertise here. In practice, I combine Panchakarma with lifestyle guidance, diet planning, herbal remedies, yoga and mindfulness practices depending on what a patient actually needs at that moment. No two cases are same, and Ayurveda reminds me daily that healing must be personal. My approach is always focused on root-cause management rather than temporary relief. Diet, herbs, therapeutic oils, meditation routines, and simple daily habits—they all work together when chosen rightly. Sometimes results come slow, sometimes faster, but I try to keep care sustainable and compassionate. Helping someone regain energy, sleep better, or reduce pain, that is the real achievement in my journey. And I continue learning, because Ayurveda is deep, it doesn’t finish with one degree or one training, it grow with every patient and every experiance.My specialties lie in treating a range of chronic and lifestyle-related conditions using Ayurveda’s time-tested principles, tailored to each individual’s unique constitution (Prakriti). I have significant expertise in managing digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, constipation, diabetes, obesity and inflammatory bowel diseases. I also specialize in addressing stress-related and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and burnout, which are increasingly common in today’s fast-paced world. By integrating therapies like Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) to calm the nervous system, Abhyanga (herbal oil massages) to balance Vata dosha, and adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi, I help patients achieve mental clarity and emotional resilience. In the field of musculoskeletal and joint health, I excel in treating conditions like arthritis (rheumatoid and osteoarthritis), back pain, sciatica, and sports injuries. Using therapies such as Kati Basti (localized oil retention on the lower back) and potent anti-inflammatory herbs like Guggulu and Shallaki, I focus on reducing inflammation, improving joint mobility, and strengthening tissues. My treatments have helped many patients, particularly those seeking non-invasive alternatives, regain mobility and reduce pain through a blend of internal medications and external therapies. Skin disorders are another key area of my practice, where I address conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne, and pigmentation issues holistically. By focusing on blood purification and balancing Pitta dosha and detoxifying Panchakarma techniques like Raktamokshana (bloodletting). My approach targets dietary and lifestyle triggers, offering sustainable results for clients who previously relied on temporary solutions like topical steroids. My dual expertise in Ayurveda and modern medicine allows me to create integrative treatment plans that are both effective and safe. I am deeply committed to patient education, empowering individuals to embrace Ayurvedic principles for sustainable health. Through this online platform, I am excited to offer virtual consultations, making the profound benefits of Ayurveda accessible to all. Whether you seek relief from a specific condition or aim to enhance overall vitality, I look forward to guiding you on your journey to balance and well-being with compassion and expertise.

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. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

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.

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. Haresh Vavadiya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor currently practicing at Ayushakti Ayurveda—which honestly feels more like a learning ecosystem than just a clinic. Being here has changed the way I look at chronic conditions. You don’t just treat the label—you go after the cause, layer by layer, and that takes patience, structure, and real connection with the person sitting in front of you. Ayushakti has been around 33+ years, with global reach and seriously refined clinical systems. That means I get to work with protocols that are both deeply rooted in traditional Ayurveda and also super practical for today’s world. Whether I’m managing arthritis, asthma, skin issues like eczema or psoriasis, hormone trouble, gut problems, or stress overload—my first step is always a deep analysis. Prakriti, doshas, ahar-vihar, past treatments—everything gets mapped out. Once I’ve got that picture clear, I create a plan using herbal medicines, detox programs (especially Panchakarma), Marma therapy if needed, and definitely food and routine corrections. But nothing’s random. Each piece is chosen for *that* person. And I don’t just prescribe—I explain. Because when someone knows *why* they’re doing a certain thing, they stick with it longer, and the results hold. One thing I’ve learned while working here is how powerful Ayurved can be when it's structured right. At Ayushakti, that structure exists. It helps me treat confidently and track results properly. Whether I’m working with a first-time visitor or a patient who’s been dealing with the same thing for 10 years, my goal stays the same—help their system return to a natural, sustainable state of balance. What I really enjoy is seeing how people’s mindset changes once they start to feel better. When they stop depending on just temporary relief and start building their health from within—that’s when the real shift happens. And being part of that shift? That’s why I do this.

Dr. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. Anupriya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.
