How to increase period flow naturally - #25392

Avoid spicy, oily and processed food. Regular exercise and meditation. Increase intake of raw vegetables and fruits. Tab.Shatavari 2-0-2 Sy. M2TONE 15ml twice

Based on your description, it seems like the menstrual phase is somewhat shorter than average, combined with the bright red color. This can sometimes be linked to an imbalance in the Vata and Pitta doshas, affecting circulation and hormonal activity. In Ayurveda, enhancing your Agni (digestive fire) and balancing Vata and Pitta may support a healthier flow.

First, consider your diet. Having a warm, nourishing diet can help. Ensure that you include ghee in your meals, as it is calming for Vata and supportive of digestion. Foods like root vegetables, nuts, seeds, and grains, such as quinoa and rice, can be beneficial. Avoid excessively spicy, fried, or overly acidic foods that might aggravate Pitta.

For improving hormonal balance, try an herbal approach with Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus). It’s known to support the female reproductive system. Taking a Shatavari supplement or decoction once daily in warm water or milk can be supportive.

Regular lifestyle routines also play a crucial role. Establish a consistent daily routine; wake up and go to bed, ideally by 10pm. Allow time for adequate rest and ensure you engage in regular, gentle exercise, such as yoga or walking.

Addressing stress is essential, as stress can disrupt the menstrual cycle. Practicing meditation, deep breathing, or mindfulness can help calm the mind and regulate hormones.

Hydration should not be overlooked. Lukewarm water or herbal teas like fennel or chamomile can support digestion and help alleviate PMS symptoms like bloating.

Finally, keep in mind any contraindications for your current health condition or medications you might be taking before making significant changes or introducing new supplements or herbs, speaking with a healthcare professional could be beneficial. Remember, the journey to a balanced menstrual cycle and hormones is unique, and might take some time to notice changes.
