How to heal endometriosis/ovarian cyst with big swollen - #26065

Laisa

Hello Doctor, I’m a 23-year-old female. A CT scan earlier this year showed a chocolate cyst on one ovary, and the gynecologist diagnosed it as endometriosis. But I have no period pain or overflow. In fact, my periods last only one day each month, with light flow. My main and most distressing problem is my swollen, bloated belly. It looks like I’m 5–6 months pregnant. I feel full all the time, and it prevents me from eating full meals or gaining weight. I honestly don’t even know what is causing this belly swelling. The CT scan only mentioned endometriosis, but the doctor didn’t clearly explain whether that is the actual reason behind this bloating. I have no confirmed answer, and I feel stuck. I have been eating clean for over a year—no processed food, no fast food, no sugar. I drink jeera-saunf-methi water in the morning, take beetroot, amla, haldi, basil seeds, and I do yoga every day. Still, there has been no improvement. My belly bloating is affecting my daily life, confidence, and mental peace. Also, since I got my first period at the age of 10, my skin has always been compromised—pimples, open pores, and breakouts have been constant. I feel this may be related to internal imbalance too. I’m now seeking proper Ayurvedic guidance—herbs, food, and hormonal support—to reduce this bloating, restore balance, and improve skin and periods. I would prefer to continue this consultation through chat only. Thank you so much. I truly hope you can help me heal naturally.

hello laisa, , from what you’ve shared, it’s very clear that your system is holding onto deep-seated Apana Vata imbalance and Ama (toxic buildup) in the pelvic and digestive region. The chocolate cyst (endometrioma) you saw on CT confirms endometriosis, which often silently causes pelvic congestion, stuck circulation, poor digestion, and bloating even if there’s no pain or excess bleeding. Your one-day scanty periods show that the uterus isn’t fully emptying due to blocked Vata flow. That’s why despite clean eating and yoga, the belly remains swollen, appetite is low, and weight doesn’t go up because digestion and absorption are choked at the root level. Your skin issues since puberty also reflect long-standing hormonal imbalance, likely worsened by early menarche (at age 10), and this has continued as internal heat and toxin buildup under the skin. You’re doing many good things already, but now your body needs targeted Ayurvedic medicines and deeper cleansing to open up the blocked channels, restore hormone flow, and melt down the stuck cystic tissue.

Internal Ayurvedic Medicines (8 weeks):

Sukumar Kashayam – 15 ml + 45 ml warm water twice daily before food Kanchnar Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food Ashokarishta – 20 ml + 20 ml water after lunch and dinner Punarnavadi Mandoor – 1 tablet twice daily after food (for bloating + blood) Gandharvahastadi Kashayam – 15 ml + 45 ml water at bedtime (for gas + Vata clearing)

Shodhana / External Therapies (if possible near you):

Abhyanga (massage) over abdomen and back with Dhanwantaram taila – 3 times/week Bashpa Swedana (steam) after oil massage to reduce bloating Matra Basti (oil enema) with Narayana taila – 7 days course if under supervision

Pathya (What You Should Eat & Follow):

Begin day with warm water + 1 tsp cow ghee Eat soft, cooked meals: rice, moong dal, bottle gourd, beetroot, spinach Soak 7 raisins + 2 dates + 5 almonds overnight – eat in morning Use cumin, ajwain, hing, turmeric in all meals Gentle yoga + 15 mins Bhramari or Ujjayi pranayama daily Early sleep (before 10:30 pm)

Apathya (Strictly Avoid):

Cold water, fridge food, raw salads, smoothies Curd, paneer, cheese Skipping meals, late dinners Tea/coffee on empty stomach Stress, overexertion, sleeping late

Investigations Suggested (If not done recently):

Pelvic USG (for cyst + endometrial thickness- as u have done u can omit this if its done just 3 months or 2 months before) Hormone profile: LH, FSH, AMH, TSH, Prolactin Vitamin D3, B12, Ferritin CBC + ESR (for hidden inflammation)

This condition is fully manageable through consistent Ayurvedic care. With time, your bloating will reduce, cycles will improve, and skin will start reflecting internal balance. You’ve taken the right step now and nature will support you back.

If you have any doubts, you can contact me. Take care, Regards, Dr. Karthika

mam I am not on medication right now I only do home remedies like drink warm saunf meethi water in empty stomach. I had done several blood works please have a look attached below👇

Pelvic Ultrasound (3 Sept 2024): Retroverted uterus, thickened endometrium

Abdominal Ultrasound (21 Dec 2024): Multiloculated cystic lesion in left adnexa (56×28 mm), no solid components

CT Scan (2 Apr 2025): Cystic lesion approx. 3.5×4.9 cm in left adnexa with septae, left ovary not seen separately; uterus and right adnexa normal

Blood Tests:

CBC (10 Sept 2024):

Hemoglobin: 12.5 g/dL

RBC: 4.98 million/µL

PCV: 40.4%

MCV: 81.2 fL

MCH: 25.2 pg

MCHC: 31.0 g/dL

Total Leukocyte Count (TLC): 8,500 /µL

MCV: 66.6 fL

MCH: 23 pg

Thanks for sharing ur blood reports laisa, (Based on all reports)-

1.Endometriosis 2 ( multiloculated cyst, CT scan + thickened endometrium) 2.High Prolactin (64.92 ng/mL) – suppresses ovulation and disrupts hormonal flow 3.Anemia of chronic inflammation – Your CBC from Dec 2024 shows 4.microcytic hypochromic picture (low MCV 66.6, low MCHC 15.7), indicating poor iron absorption and chronic blood stagnation (Ayurvedically, Rakta dhatu dushti with Ama). 5.Elevated IgE (1080 IU/mL) – points to underlying immune hypersensitivity or chronic inflammation 6.Urine RBCs 15–20/HPF – slight pelvic congestion or possible uro-genital irritation (matches Apana Vata dushti) 7.ESR 30 – confirms mild inflammation 8.LDH 310 – suggests tissue stress or cystic breakdown (in line with endometrioma behavior) 9.Retroverted uterus + thick endometrium – shows improper flow of Apana Vata and uterine stagnation (very typical in endometriosis)

Laisa, considering how deep-rooted your symptoms are especially the persistent cyst, high prolactin, scanty periods, and long-standing bloating it’s very important that you reach out to a nearby Ayurveda hospital or authentic Panchakarma center and begin the Shodhana (cleansing) therapies I mentioned earlier. While internal medicines like Kashayams and Guggulu will definitely help clear Ama and regulate Apana Vata, they alone can only push your system to a certain limit. Since your condition involves long-standing congestion in the pelvic and digestive tract, full relief will come only when Shodhana therapies like Abhyanga (oil massage), Bashpa Swedana (steam), and Matra Basti (medicated oil enema) are done under supervision. These treatments go deeper into the tissues, clear the blocked Vata channels, and slowly melt the cystic mass while improving hormonal flow and digestion. Starting these therapies in the correct seasonal window will also enhance their effectiveness. Please don’t delay this step it is the most essential part of your healing journey.

You’re doing good with your warm fennel-methi water, but it’s too mild for the depth of imbalance now. Ayurveda teaches us that once Ama + Vata become chronic, proper Shamana + Shodhana (medicine + cleansing) is essential to unblock the flow.

so , Starting these therapies in the correct seasonal window will also enhance their effectiveness. Please don’t delay this step it is the most essential part of your healing journey. take care and be consistent in ur treatment Diets and lifestyle !

HELLO LAISA,

Thank you for sharing your story so openly- what you’re experiencing is very real and understandably distressing. While your symptoms may seem confusing (light periods despite endometriosis, persistent bloating, poor appetite, skin issues)

Based on what you’ve shared, here’s how your symptoms map to Ayurvedic imbalances

1) ENDOMETRIOSIS WITH CHOCOLATE CYST -associated with kapha(cyst formation), vata (abnormal movement of blood), and rakta dhatu dushti(vitiation of blood tissue) -The fact that you have no pain or heavy periods but cysts formation points more towards kapha-vata dominant endometriosis

2) BLOATING AND DISTENDED BELLY (as if 5-6 months pregnant) -classic sign of Apana Vata + samana vata imbalance- impaired digestion, accumulation of gas, and sluggish elimination -could also indicate Ama(toxic buildup), which bloats the abdomen and prevents nutrient absorption

3) VERY LIGHT PERIODS -indicative of Rakta kshaya(low blood quality) and or vata aggravation (causing suppression of menstrual flow)

4) PIMPLE AND SKIN ISSUES (Since early menstruation) -A sign of rakta (blood) and pitta imbalances with hormonal disturbances -hormonal imbalance is likely contributing to both skin issues and cystic formation

TREATMENT GOAL -shrink the chocolate cyst and reverse endometriosis -relieve chronic bloating and abdominal swelling - normalise periods -clear skin and reduce acne

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

* FOR ENDOMETRIOSIS AND CHOCOLATE CYST

1) KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =helps dissolve cysts, clears kapha and lymphatic congestion

2) ASHOKARISHTA= 20 ml with equal water, twice daily after meals =supports healthy menstruation and uterine tone

3) VARUNADI KASHAYA= 20 ml with warm water twice daily before meals =reduces ovarian cysts and bloating caused by kapha accumulation

* FOR BLOATING AND GAS

1) HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water before meals = improves digestion, relieves gas, and stimulate digestive fire

2) AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water =keeps bowels clean and removes ama(toxins)

* FOR SKIN AND HORMONAL BALANCE

1) MANJISTHA GHAN VATI= 1 tab twice daily with warm water after meals =blood purifier, helps in skin issues and hormonal balance

2) SHATAVARI GRANULES= 1 tsp twice daily with warm milk in morning and night = restores reproductive and hormonal health in females

DIET SHOULD BE FOLLOWED since you’re already eating healthy, this is more about balancing your doshas and improving digestion

INCLUDE -warm, cooked, easy to digest food- khichdi, soups, stewed vegetables - spices like= cumin, ginger, ajwain, fennel, coriander- all help vata and kapha - Ghee- 1 tsp daily improves digestion, Balances Vata and nourishes tissues -beetroot, amla, and turmeric- excellent, continue that - ash gourd juice or bottle gourd juice- on empty stomach for bloating -Coconut water- once or twice a week, cools down pitta

AVOID -cold drinks, raw salads, dry foods, bread, fermented foods - dairy(unless its organic and boiled milk), as it can worsen cysts and kapha - heavy legumes - rajma, chana -difficult to digest when vata is imbalanced -overeating or eating without hunger

LIFESTYLE AND YOGA

DAILY PRACTICE -pawanmuktasana -ardha matsyendrasana -supta baddha konasana -vajrasana after meals - suryanamaskar = 12 rounds

PRANAYAM -Nadi sodhana -Bhramari

ABHYANGA(self oil massage with warm sesame oil- 3-4 times/week =helps balance vata, reduces bloating, improves circulation

NIGHT ROUTINE -1 tsp ghee in warm milk at night to improve bowel movements and nourish reproductive system -sleep by 10 pm to balance hormones naturally

IF NOT DONE - GO FOR THIS INVESTIGATIONS

1) PELVIC IMAGING= to monitor endometriosis, cyst size and other structural issues -pelvic ultrasound -MRI pelvis

2) HORMONAL PROFILE=LH,FSH(day 2 or 3 of cycle) -ESTRADIOL -PROGESTERONE -AMH(anti-mullerian hormone)- to assess ovarian reserve -THYROID PROFILE -PROLACTIN AND TESTOSTERONE -DHEA-S= elevated in pcos and adrenal imbalance -Insulin fasting + glucose fasting

Although your CT scan mentioned endometriosis , your primary suffering is from bloating and gut imbalances, not painful periods. That means your digestive fire must be your primary focus now, alongside hormonal healing

In Ayurveda, the uterus is supported by digestion. When digestion improves, toxins reduce, periods normalize, and cysts shrinks

You are doing so many right things already- your discipline is commendable. What’s needed now is proper, dosha aligned regimen with consistent ayurvedic medicines and digestive correction. Ayurveda works gently but deeply, and with commitment, you can absolutely reverse this bloating and restore hormonal balance naturally

DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

In Ayurveda, your symptoms tie back to dosha imbalances, likely involving Vata and Pitta. Both symptoms like bloating and skin issues often link with these imbalances. The endometriosis, or the “chocolate cysts” you mentioned, can also have roots in this imbalance, particularly when influenced by excessive Pitta. Often these cystic conditions need internal cooling and reduction of inflammation as a primary focus.

First, consider your agni (digestive fire) - it might be impaired. Even though you eat clean, the sensation of fullness without feeling satisfied indicates issues with absorption or digestion. Try panchamoola decoction to stimulate digestive fire mildly. Drink it before meals to help digest food properly, counter bloating by absorbing ama (toxins).

Your morning routine with jeera-saunf-methi water is good, yet add Hingvastak churna after meals to reduce gas and assist digestion. Avoid raw salads or cold foods, as they might aggravate Vata further. Consume foods that are easy on digestion – think moong dal khichdi. Introduce kanji, a fermented grain drink with cumin, fenugreek, and rock salt.

For skin, try neem leaves; make a paste to apply on affected areas. For internal usage, Guduchi tablets may help balance Pitta and support healthier skin. Pitta balancing herbs like Shatavari and Ashoka can support hormonal balance, aid menstruation. Use Aloe Vera juice each morning to pacify Pitta and cleanse.

Yoga’s a great choice, but consider poses focusing on the lower abdominal region such as Pavanamuktasana and Bhujangasana. Emphasize stress-reducing practices like Pranayama. Balance daily routine by adhering to a schedule; improper or erratic daily routines often disturb biological cycles, aggravating Vata.

Since you are experiencing this starting from age 10, continue monitoring your condition under a healthcare provider or get a second opinion if things do not improve. Swollen abdomen should not be ignored, always consult a health practitioner for potential complications.

These strategies are meant for moderation. Follow them as per the capacity of your body, and observe changes. Adjust your approach if discomfort or adverse changes arise. It’s also crucial to monitor mental peace since stress-induced exacerbations can affect your condition.

Bloated belly and endometriosis often stem from imbalances in your doshas, particularly vata and pitta. Your symptoms suggest vata might be obstructed by kapha. Your light periods could indicate low agni—digestive fire—leading to improper digestion and residual accumulation. Let’s start by addressing these imbalances.

To soothe vata and enhance agni, try adding a small piece of fresh ginger with a pinch of rock salt to your meals. This simple remedy can aid digestion and reduce bloating. Meanwhile, increase warm, cooked foods in your diet and minimize raw or refrigerated items, which can aggravate vata.

Herbs like Ashoka and Lodhra can be helpful in managing endometriosis and balancing hormones. These should be taken under guidance from a qualified practitioner. For the persistent skin issues, Turmeric (Haridra) along with Neem, taken before meals may help clear impurities from blood, often connected to pitta imbalance.

Additionally, practice regular oil massage (Abhyanga) with warm sesame oil to calm vata and promote circulation. Castor oil packs applied to the belly once a week, followed by a hot water bottle, can provide relief from discomfort and help reduce swelling.

Stay consistent with your yoga routine, focusing on poses that involve twisting and gentle abdominal stretches, to promote proper circulation and digestion.

Keep in mind, though your practices are beneficial, these conditions can become serious. If you observe any intensifying symptoms, see your healthcare provider promptly. Continuing these steps with proper medical supervision ensures you take holistic and safe approaches to manage your health.

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. 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. 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. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

Dr. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

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. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Snehal Tasgaonkar
I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

Dr. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.
