I am a dedicated Ayurvedic practitioner with a diverse foundation in both modern and traditional systems of medicine. My journey began with six months of hands-on experience in allopathic medicine at District Hospital Sitapur, where I was exposed to acute and chronic care in a high-volume clinical setting. This experience strengthened my diagnostic skills and deepened my understanding of patient care in an allopathic framework. Complementing this, I have also completed six months of clinical training in Ayurveda and Panchakarma, focusing on natural detoxification and rejuvenation therapies. During this time, I gained practical experience in classical Ayurvedic treatments, including Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara, and other Panchakarma modalities. I strongly believe in a patient-centric approach that blends the wisdom of Ayurveda with the clinical precision of modern medicine for optimal outcomes. Additionally, I hold certification in Garbha Sanskar, a specialized Ayurvedic discipline aimed at promoting holistic wellness during pregnancy. I am passionate about supporting maternal health and fetal development through time-tested Ayurvedic practices, dietary guidance, and lifestyle recommendations. My approach to healthcare emphasizes balance, preventive care, and customized wellness plans tailored to each individual’s constitution and health goals. I aim to create a nurturing space where patients feel heard, supported, and empowered in their healing journey.

Prevention To help prevent and treat vaginal discharge: Keep your genital area clean and dry. Avoid soap and rinse with water only. Sitting in a warm, but not hot, bath may help your symptoms. Avoid douching. Although many women feel cleaner if they douche after menstruation or intercourse, it may actually worsen vaginal discharge because it removes healthy bacteria lining the vagina that protect against infection. Eat yogurt with live cultures or take Lactobacillus acidophilus tablets when you are on antibiotics to prevent a yeast infection. Use condoms to avoid catching or spreading sexually transmitted infection (STI). Avoid using feminine hygiene sprays, fragrances, or powders in the genital area. Avoid wearing extremely tight-fitting pants or shorts, which may cause irritation. Wear cotton underwear or cotton-crotch pantyhose. Avoid underwear made of silk or nylon, because these materials are not very absorbant and restrict air flow. This can increase sweating in the genital area, which can cause irritation. Use pads and not tampons. Keep your blood sugar levels under good control if you have diabetes. 1 pushyanuga churna -3 gm+Pradarantaka rasa-125mg+ vanga bhasma-125mg+spatika bhasma-500mg+shuddha gandhaka-250mg mix and take in morning 2- Darvyadi kashaya -4tsf- 2 time after food Wash vagina with panchavalkal kashaya

HELLO PUJA, A) WHITE VAGINAL DISCHARGE -this is non itchy, milky or water discharge from vagina that occurs before or after your periods -In Ayurveda, it's called shwetapradara, caused mainly due to kapha dosha imbalance -it can also be triggered by weak digestion, low reproductive energy, or stress Just like excess oil comes out when food is overcooked, your body pushes out extra white fluid when internal balance is disturbed B) SCANTY AND PROLONGED MENSTRUAL FLOW -you get normal flow for 3-4 days, then light spotting up to day 7-8 -this is due to apana vata disturbance, the energy responsible for downward movement in the pelvis -sometimes linked to hormonal imbalance, stress, weakness, or incomplete shedding of the uterus lining. TREATMENT GOALS -balance doshas= mainly kapha and apana vata - improves uterine tone= strengthen the reproductive system - detoxify body= removes toxins that contribute to imbalance -restore proper digestion= healthy digestion supports reproductive hormones -normalize periods= ensure timely and complete flow AYURVEDIC MEDICATIONS A) FOR WHITE VAGINAL DISCHARGE 1) PUSHYANUG CHURNA= 1 tsp with honey twice daily before food for 1-2 months = stops white discharge, strengthen uterus 2) PATRANGASAVA= 15ml with equal water after meals twice daily for 3 months = balances hormones, reduces discharge 3) LODHRA CHURNA= 1 tsp with lukewarm water once daily in evening = dries excess discharge 4) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp at night with warm water =detoxifies and improves digestion B) FOR SCANTY PROLONGED MENSTRUATION 1) ASHOKARISHTA= 15 ml with equal water twice daily after meals for 3 months = strengthens uterine muscles, regulate flow 2) DASHMOOLA KWATHA= 20 ml. twice daily before meals with water for 3 months =relieves pain, supports apana vata 3) KUMARYASAVA= 15 ml with equal water after meals for 2 months =helps with hormonal balance and menstrual flow GENERAL DIET PLAN EAT -warm, home cooked meals - moong dal, rice, khichdi -ghee in small quantity-nourishes reproductive tissues -cooked vegetables-bottle gourd, ridge gourd, pumpkin -herbal teas= fennel, cumin, coriander -fresh fruits=pomegrante, papaya not during periods, amla - soaked almonds=4-5 daily AVOID -curd especially at night - cold drinks, refrigerated food - fried, oily, junk food - excess sour=tamrind, vinegar and spicy food - excess sugar-cakes/sweets - processed foods, white bread, and noodles LIFESTYLE -wake up early, preferably before 7 am - avoid sleeping during day - stay physically active- sedentary habits worsen symptoms -avoid mental stress, overthinking, and emotional trauma - don't suppress natural urges-urine, stool, gas - during menstruation, avoid heavy exercise or lifting YOGA AND PELVIC FLOOR EXERCISES Do these 4-5 days/week (except during periods) -Baddha konasana= improves circulation in pelvic area -Supta baddha konasana= relaxes uterus, relieves discharge -Setu bandhasana= tones uterus -Paschimottanasana= regulates apana vata -Viparita karani= restores pelvic balance -Mool bandha(pelvic floor tightening)= strengthens muscles and reduce discharge PRANAYAM -nadi sodhana=balances hormones -Bhramari Pranayam= calms mind, reduces stress induced issues HOME REMEDIES 1) MEETHI SEED WATER - soak 1 tsp methi seeds overnight in water -boil in the morning, strain and drink on empty stomach =reduces discharge, improves digestion 2) RICE WATER WITH LODHRA CHURNA -boil rice, collect the starchy water(kanji) -add 1 tsp of lodhra churna drink warm =stops white discharge, strengthen uterus 3) AMLA JUICE+ALOE VERA -mix 1 tbsp amla juice+1 tbsp Aloe vera juice -take once in morning on empty stomach = cleanses reproductive system, balances hormones 4) POMEGRANATE PEEL POWDER -dry pomegrante peels, grind to powder -take 1/2 tsp with honey once daily = uterine tonic Be patient with your body, Ayurveda works like nature-slowly, steadily and deeply.

Your concerns reflect what might be imbalances in the vaginal flora and possibly a certain dosha imbalance. White discharge, or leucorrhea, in Ayurveda can be linked to Kapha dosha imbalances. It's crucial that, first and foremost, you rule out any infectious or more serious conditions by consulting with a healthcare professional. For addressing the white discharge, focus on balancing Kapha. Drinking warm water infused with dry ginger or cinnamon might be beneficial. These herbs help in reducing excess Kapha. Consider adding Trikatu— a blend of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger— into your diet as it's known to stimulate Agni and help in reducing excess moisture. Stay away from heavy, oily, and excessively sweet foods that could aggravate Kapha. The practice of wearing clean, dry underwear as you are doing is excellent. Ensure also you're consuming enough fiber-rich foods to maintain digestive health, as constipation could inadvertently worsen any Kapha imbalance. Concerning your menstrual flow—it's not uncommon for menstrual flow to vary. A scanty flow toward the end of the cycle may not indicate a problem, but if you're concerned, aim to enhance Pitta dosha, which governs blood flow including menstruation. Consider incorporating spices like turmeric and saffron into your meals, and drinking aloe vera juice on an empty stomach to support healthy menstruation. Moreover, maintaining a regular sleep schedule and moderate exercise, like walking or yoga, can help stabilize dosha balance and support better hormonal function. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized treatment plan or a medical professional for an evaluation is vital. Avoid delaying critical medical attention if there is any worsening or additional symptoms such as pain or fever.

I am a dedicated Ayurveda practitioner with a deep-rooted passion for restoring health through traditional Ayurvedic principles. My clinical approach revolves around understanding the unique constitution (Prakruti) and current imbalance (Vikruti) of each individual. I conduct comprehensive consultations that include Prakruti-Vikruti Pareeksha, tongue examination, and other Ayurvedic diagnostic tools to identify the underlying causes of disease, rather than just addressing symptoms. My primary focus is on balancing the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—through individualized treatment plans that include herbal medicines, therapeutic diets, and lifestyle modifications. I believe that healing begins with alignment, and I work closely with my patients to bring the body, mind, and spirit into harmony using personalized, constitution-based interventions. Whether managing chronic conditions or guiding preventive health, I aim to empower patients through Ayurvedic wisdom, offering not just relief but a sustainable path to well-being. My practice is rooted in authenticity, guided by classical Ayurvedic texts and a strong commitment to ethical, patient-centered care. I take pride in helping people achieve long-term health outcomes by integrating ancient knowledge with a modern, practical approach. Through continuous learning and close attention to every detail in diagnosis and treatment, I strive to deliver meaningful, natural, and effective results for all my patients.

Hello, What is your age? If you are young and if the white discharge is not associated with itching, foul smell and lower back ache, it is normal. Your flow during periods also looks normal. Take care. Kind regards.
