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

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
