Dr. Raghuveer SN
I began my professional journey as a Duty Doctor at VBR Multispeciality Hospital, where I had the opportunity to manage a wide range of patient cases across various departments. This experience laid the foundation for my clinical approach—rooted in attentiveness, responsibility, and a deep respect for integrative healing systems. In 2021, I took a significant step forward by establishing my own practice, Prakriti Healthcare, with the vision of offering personalized and holistic Ayurvedic care. Through this clinic, I have been able to work closely with patients struggling with chronic illnesses, lifestyle-related disorders, and stress-related health conditions. My approach combines classical Ayurvedic principles with modern-day practicality, making healing accessible and sustainable for each individual. In September 2023, I joined Wellness by Heartfulness as an Ayurvedic Physician. This role has further enhanced my ability to provide community-based, preventive healthcare grounded in mindfulness, sattvic living, and traditional Ayurvedic therapies. It has also allowed me to work within a multi-disciplinary wellness model that emphasizes harmony between mind, body, and spirit. Most recently, in February 2025, I was honored to take on the role of Medical Reviewer at PharmEasy, where I contribute to ensuring the medical accuracy and relevance of healthcare content. This opportunity allows me to bridge clinical knowledge with patient education, helping people make informed health decisions online. My journey so far reflects a commitment to both traditional wisdom and evidence-based practice. Whether it’s through direct patient care or medical writing, my goal remains the same: to promote healing that is personalized, preventive, and empowering.

You’re 43, and facing low sexual desire, weak erections, and feel worse with “hot” or strong tonics. This shows your body is overheated and tired inside. Here's what you can do: What to Avoid: Spicy, oily, fried foods Pickles, vinegar, red chilli, garlic Alcohol, smoking, and late-night habits Strong sexual tonics like Shilajit, Kaunch Beej, etc. — they may be too hot for your system What to Eat More: Fresh fruits like banana, pomegranate, dates, mango Warm milk with a little ghee Soft food like moong dal khichdi, rice, pumpkin Soaked almonds, figs (2–3 daily) Helpful Ayurvedic Supplements (Mild & Cooling): Shatavari granules – builds strength gently Yashtimadhu (Licorice) powder – calms body and nerves Chyawanprash (mild or sugar-free) – boosts energy Phala Ghrita – for overall reproductive health Ashwagandha arishta – only in small dose if your body accepts it Lifestyle Tips: Sleep before 10:30 PM, avoid mobile/laptop after 9 PM Gentle yoga – especially butterfly pose or sitting stretches Daily meditation or deep breathing for 10–15 minutes Your body needs cooling, calming, and natural nourishment — not heat or forceful medicines. With a few simple changes, your strength, mood, and desire will naturally return.

hello Gaurav , You’re not alone in this what you’re going through is very real, and it’s not just about low libido or ED on the surface. In your case, there seems to be a Pitta imbalance that’s slowly depleting the Shukra Dhatu (reproductive vitality) and disturbing the natural desire, strength, and stability that comes with it.What makes this unique is your sensitivity to ushna (hot) medicines, which means we have to rebuild from a cooler, nourishing angle not force the body into stimulation, but restore what’s been quietly exhausted. Also, since your B12, D, and other nutrients are good, it shows this isn’t about deficiency it’s more about imbalance in rasa-shukra flow and inner heat regulation. That’s where Ayurvedic Rasayana, along with some mild Shodhana, comes in to help rebuild from the root without aggravating anything. Investigations (to rule out silent underlying causes) Serum Free & Total Testosterone Serum FSH, LH, Prolactin Lipid Profile (cholesterol/HDL/LDL) Liver Function Test CBC + ESR Urine routine Fasting blood sugar (to double-check) These help ensure we’re not missing subtle hormone or metabolic causes. Shodhana (cleansing) suggestion – if accessible Since you’re Pitta-sensitive, we avoid strong Virechana. Try Mridu Virechana with Trivrit Avaleha or Mahatiktaka Ghrita 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime, once in 5–7 days for a month. This clears out mild Ama and excess Pitta from the liver and intestines, which often blocks the normal flow of desire and hormonal rhythm. If available, a short course of Basti with Shatavari + Bala Siddha Taila in a Panchakarma centre (3–5 sessions) can strengthen Apana Vata and improve natural libido without hot herbs. internal medication-(Pitta-sensitive Rasayana approach) Shatavari Kalpa – 1 tsp with warm milk morning and night Yashtimadhu Ghrita – ¼ tsp empty stomach in morning with warm water Saraswatarishta – 15 ml with equal water at night Vasant Kusumakar Ras (plain) – 1 tab after breakfast (if affordable) Abhyanga with Bala-Ashwagandhadi oil or Kshirabala Taila – 3x/week Diet & Daily Routine Take early, warm, fresh meals. Avoid leftover, spicy, sour, fermented food. Use cow’s ghee in cooking. Soaked almonds, dry dates, and saffron milk at night help strengthen Shukra. Avoid cold water, fridge foods, night scrolling, emotional suppression. This plan works gently and steadily. It doesn’t push — it restores. The spark and strength will come back with time, and your system won’t feel overheated or agitated while healing. If you have any doubts, you can contact me. Take care, regards, dr.Karthika.

My academic and clinical journey is rooted in classical Ayurvedic surgical wisdom, complemented by a modern understanding of patient care and evidence-based approaches. With hands-on training and experience in managing chronic pain conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, hemorrhoids, fistula, and other ano-rectal conditions, I provide treatments that emphasize both relief and long-term wellness. I am deeply committed to offering individualized treatment plans that align with the patient’s prakriti (constitution), disease progression, and lifestyle factors. I believe healing is not limited to procedures alone; it also requires compassion, communication, and continuity of care. That’s why I ensure each patient receives personalized guidance—from diagnosis and therapy to post-treatment care and preventive strategies. I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.
