HELLO RUTHI,

I’m sorry you’re going through this. From the symptoms you’ve shared- white vaginal discharge(leucorrhea), oral thrush(white coating in the mouth), fatigue, eye puffiness , body heat, stomach pain, heart pain, dark tarry stools, urgency in urination- this appears to be a systemic issue, possibly involving chronic infection, weakened immunity, or even gut/liver dysfunction.

Some of your symptoms- especially dark tarry stool, oral thrush, heart pain and recurrent infections - could indicate serious underlying conditions like -GI bleeding(dark stools=digested blood) -systemic candida infection -liver or kidney dysfunction -autoimmune conditions -anemia or chronic inflammation

PLEASE GET EVALUATED BY A DOCTOR FOR -complete blood count -liver/kidney function tests -stool analysis -blood sugar levels- to rule out diabetes -HIV screening (as chronic oral thrush and recurrent infections are common in immunocompromised states)

AYURVEDICALLY This seems to be tridoshic imbalance, primarily involving -kapha=mucus(white discharge, oral thrush) -pitta= inflammation, heat, heart/stomach pain -vata=weakness, dryness, instability

Ayurveda would categorise these symptoms under -shweta pradara-white discharge -mukha daha/taludaha-oral thrush -ajirna/amla pitta- indigestion-related systemic toxins -Ojas kshaya- low immunity and strength

AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT PLAN

1) DETOX AND DEEPANA-PACHANA(correct digestion and remove toxins)

-TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at night for gut cleansing and immunity

-AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1 tsp before meals with warm water =helps acidity, thrush, and bowel movement

-GANDHAK RASAYANA= 250 mg twice daily after meals =anti infective, purifies blood

-SHITOPALADI CHURNA + YASHTIMADHU= 1/2 tsp each, with honey for oral thrush

2) LOCAL MANAGEMENT

FOR WHITE DISCHARGE

VAGINAL WASH= decoction of triphala+neem leaves(lukewarm) only

VAGINAL DOUCHE=under supervision

FOR ORAL THRUSH

GARGLE WITH -triphala kwatha -neem+ yashtimadhu kwatha -warm saline water+turmeric

3) RASAYANA AND STRENGTHENERS

-ASHWAGANDHA LEHYA= 1 tsp with milk at night

-GUDUCHI CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water in morning and evening

-SHATAVARI KALPA= 1 tsp with warm milk in morning for hormonal balance and vaginal health

-AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals for liver/digestion/skin

4)DIETARY RECOMMENDATIONS

EAT -warm, light, home-cooked food -moong dal khichdi,cooked vegetables, soups -buttermilk with roasted cumin+rock salt -coconut water, seasonal fruits- avoid banana at night

AVOID -sugar, refined carbs, bakery items they worsen yeast -milk + salt combination -cold foods/drinks -fried/oily/heavy foods -curd at night

5) LIFESTYLE -wake up before sunrise -mild yoga+pranayam daily esp kapalbhati, amolom Vilom -avoid day sleep -keep genital area dry and clean -reduce stress meditation helps restore Ojas

Plese do not rely on home remedies alone- you need a complete clinical diagnosis. This condition appears to have chronic systemic involvement, and infections can spread or worsen if not managed well.

THANK YOU

I believe in treating the individual as a whole, not just the symptoms they present. My approach to healthcare is rooted in the Ayurvedic philosophy that the body, mind, and lifestyle are deeply interconnected. When you come to me for care, I don’t just focus on the surface-level issue—whether it's a headache, skin irritation, or digestive discomfort—I aim to understand the root cause behind it. For example, a recurring headache is never "just" a headache. I take the time to assess your digestion, sleep quality, emotional well-being, and daily habits. I believe that true healing begins when all systems of the body are brought into harmony. That’s why my treatment plans are always personalized—carefully tailored to your constitution, lifestyle, and current health status. I emphasize the importance of diet and routine in maintaining long-term wellness. I often guide my patients through sustainable lifestyle modifications, practical dietary advice, and herbal interventions that are safe, effective, and accessible. My goal is not only to relieve your present discomfort but to improve your overall quality of life—physically, mentally, and emotionally. I value building a trusting and open doctor-patient relationship where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether you're seeking support for chronic issues or looking to enhance your vitality through preventive care, I offer a compassionate, holistic, and evidence-informed approach that aligns with the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda.

hello Ruthi, You’re just 22, but your body is showing signs of deep internal imbalance that’s been neglected or suppressed for several months. The persistent white discharge, rising body heat, morning eye swelling, white coating inside cheeks, and recurring stomach and heart pain all suggest a Pitta–Kapha aggravation with high Ama (toxin) accumulation, and possible low immunity.

The dark tarry stool could also point toward internal bleeding or liver-related issues and the urgency in urination indicates the urinary system is also affected.

Let me explain simply: Your body’s inner fire (Agni) is not stable digestion is poor, toxins are building up, and fluids are not circulating properly. When Pitta is high, it causes heat, inflammation, and pain (like heart/stomach pain). Kapha, when aggravated, causes mucus, coating in the mouth, discharge, and sluggishness. Together, they create this state of weakness and poor immunity.

Internal Prescription (for 6 weeks): Pushyanuga Churna – 1 tsp with rice water (tandulodaka) twice daily before meals Patolakaturohinyadi Kashayam – 15 ml + 45 ml warm water before food twice daily Chandraprabha Vati – 2 tablets twice a day after meals Avipattikar Churna – ½ tsp at night with warm water Drakshadi Kashayam – 10 ml + 40 ml water at bedtime (to reduce heat + improve sleep)

External Care (Shodhana / Supportive Therapies): Yoni Pichu (if discharge is severe): Clean cotton dipped in triphala decoction or yashtimadhu decoction, inserted for 15–20 mins (under supervision if possible) Abhyanga with Balashwagandhadi Taila followed by mild steam – 3 times/week Netra Tarpana (if eye swelling continues) – only at an Ayurvedic clinic

Pathya (What You Should Eat & Do): Take warm, home-cooked meals on time Use cow ghee in meals – 1 tsp twice daily Drink coriander seed water or jeera water daily Eat steamed vegetables like lauki, pumpkin, spinach, and thin moong dal Start your day with 1 tsp turmeric water or amla juice

Apathya (Strictly Avoid): Sour and spicy foods, curd, tamarind Cold drinks, processed/junk food Sugar and bakery items Daytime sleeping and late nights Holding urine or bowel urges

Investigations (If Not Done Recently): CBC + ESR LFT (Liver Function Test) Urine Routine & Culture Stool Occult Blood Test USG Abdomen + Pelvis (if pain continues) Vaginal swab / discharge culture (for persistent white discharge)

This isn’t just about gynecological symptoms — your gut, liver, immunity, and reproductive system are all involved. Don’t worry — this is reversible, but needs consistent herbal support and a reset in your daily habits.

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

Hello ruthi 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-3gm+Pradarantaka Rasa-125mg+Vanga Bhasma-125mg+Spatika Bhasma-500mg+Shuddha Gandhaka-250mg - before food with honey

Simple Remedies

1. Oil Pulling is a safe remedy that cures and prevents diseases. In the morning, on empty stomach, take one tablespoon of sunflower oil and move oil slowly in the mouth as rinsing or swishing. Swishing stimulates the release of enzymes and the toxins out of the blood. The oil should not be swallowed because it has become toxic. When the oil gets thinner and white. If the oil is still yellow, it thoroughly rinsed and mouth should be washed.

2. Rub the teeth & gums with triphala masi (charcoal of Triphala) twice or thrice a day.

3. Rub the teeth with powders of Bakula, vajradanti, rock salt, clove, charcoal or triphala masi.

HELLO RUTHI,

you’re experiencing multiple symptoms that are connected in Ayurveda through imbalances in doshas (especially pitta, kapha, and vata) and weak agni(digestive fire).

YOU HAVE MENTIONED -White discharge(shwetapradar)= A common issue due to infection, hormonal imbalances, or weakness in reproductive organs

-Oral thrush(white coating in mouth)= Fungal infection caused by weakened immunity or high internal heat

-Body heat, fatigue, eye swelling, heart pain, stomach pain= signs of pitta imbalance with some vata issues

-Dark tarry stool= this could point to internal bleeding or excess heat in the stomach or liver

-Frequent urination= suggests possible infection or heat in the urinary system

In Ayurveda, this combination of symptoms indicates -Ama(toxin) buildup due to poor digestion -agni mandya(weak digestion) -pitta+kapha imbalance - low Ojas-immunity and vitality

TREATMENT GOAL -remove toxins -improves digestion-boost agni - balance pitta, kapha, and vata -treat infection-especially fungal -strengthen immunity -rejuvinate reproductive and digestive systems -prevent recurrence by maintaining balance

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with honey before meals twice daily for 20 days =improves digestion, melts toxins, reduce kapha

6) PUSHYANUG CHURNA= 1 tsp with rice water twice daily after meals for 40 days =treats excessive vaginal discharge

7) PATRANGASAVA=if weakness is severe =20 ml with equal water after meals twice daily for 2months =rejuvinates uterus, reduces fatigue

8) YASHTIMADHU CHURNA= mixed with honey and apply inside the mouth till symptoms disappear for 1-2 weeks =heals oral mucosa, antifungal

9) KAMADUDHA RAS WITH MUKTA PISHTI= 1 tab twice daily or 15 days =reduces internal heat, acidity, heartburn

EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS

FOR ORAL THRUSH -gargle with warm triphala decoction twice daily =apply paste of yashtimadhu and honey inside cheeks -Khadiradi vati= chew 1 tab 3 times a day

FOR VAGINAL WHITE DISCHARGE -wash with cool triphala water or decoction of neem leaves -SITZ BATH= soak in warm neem or triphala water for 10 minutes 3 times/wek -turmeric water douche= take warm water add pinch of turmeric and soak one cotton ball and put into vagina for 20-30 minutes

DIET -warm, freshly cooked light food -moog dal ,red rice, barley, khichdi -boiled or steamed vegetables= bottle gourd, ridge gourd, tinda, lauki -spices=cumin, ajwain, fennel, coriander -ghee 1 tsp/day -garlic, ginger, turmeric- natural antifungals -herbal water-jeera or coriander boiled water

AVOID -cold food and drinks -curd, panner, cheese -sweets, chocolates, bakery products -fried and oily food - excess spicy or sour food -coffee and excessive tea - non veg especially during infection

LIFESTYLE CHANGES -wake up by 6:00 AM -drink warm water first thing in the morning - avoid sleeping in the daytime- increases kapha - do self oil massage once or twice a week with warm sesame oil - maintain genital hygiene but avoid harsh soaps - do not suppress natural urges- urination, hunger etc -avoid late nights and screen time after 9 pm - sleep by 10:00 pm regularly

YOGA ASANA= 15-30 minutes -vajrasana= helps digestion -bhujangasana= strengthens uterus -baddha konasana= improves reproductive health -pawanmuktasana= relieves gas, supports gut -paschimottanasana= relieves stress

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances all doshas(5 min) -Sheetali= cools pitta(3-5 min) - Bhramari= calms mind and supports immunity(3-5 min)

HOME REMEDIES

1) AMLA JUICE= 20 ml daily with water, cooling and immune boosting 2) FENUGREEK SEED WATER= soak 1 tsp overnight, boil and drink in morning 3) NEEM LEAVES PASTE= apply on tongue or genital area(antifungal) 4) ALOE VERA GEL= 1 tbsp on empty stomach(heals gut, cools body) 5) 1 tsp TURMERIC + 1/2 tsp HONEY= antifungal, take daily 6) CORIANDER SEED WATER= soak overnight, boil and drink next morning

INVESTIGATIONS YOU SHOULD GET DONE -CBC, ESR, CRP= check infection or inflammation -Blood sugar=rule out diabetes- -HIV test= if repeated oral thrush occurs -Urine routine and culture= to rule out UTI -stool occult blood= to check GI bleeding -pelvic ultrasound= to check uterus, ovaries, cysts -Liver function test= if long term medication or fatigue -Kidney function test= to monitor metabolism

Ayurveda treats the root cause, not just symptoms oral thrush and white discharge are treatable with patience and discipline

DO FOLLOW CONSSITENTLY

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

The combination of symptoms you describe suggests that there might be underlying issues that need careful assessment. In Ayurveda, these symptoms may indicate imbalances in the doshas, especially Pitta and Kapha. Let’s address your concerns through Ayurvedic insights.

White discharge can be linked to Kapha imbalance, and managing this involves dietary and lifestyle changes. Focus on reducing Kapha by avoiding heavy, oily, and dairy foods. Incorporate more warming spices like ginger, cumin, and cinnamon into your meals. Ashoka (Saraca asoca) and Lodhra (Symplocos racemosa) are traditionally used in Ayurveda for managing leucorrhea and may be beneficial here. Consider taking them as a decoction under an Ayurvedic practitioner’s guidance.

Oral thrush, signified by white coating, indicates possibly aggravation of Kapha and Ama (toxins). Maintaining good oral hygiene with regular tongue scraping and oil pulling can help. Triphala is an excellent Ayurvedic formula that aids in detoxification and may restore the digestive fire (Agni), improving overall digestion.

Hydration is crucial, but avoid cold drinks. Lukewarm water with a pinch of turmeric may help reduce inflammation and discomfort. Heart and stomach pain could indicate deeper issues. An anti-inflammatory diet rich in green vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins is advisable. Also, incorporate routine stress-relief practices like meditation or pranayama.

Your symptoms, especially heart pain and dark tarry stools, may be serious signs that should not be ignored. You should seek immediate medical evaluation for these, as they could be related to something more urgent or severe. It is important to ensure that you are getting definitive care and diagnostics to rule out other possible health issues. Always combine Ayurvedic care with necessary medical interventions when dealing with complex or serious symptoms.

Based on the range of symptoms you’re describing — particularly the chronic white discharge, oral thrush symptoms (white coating inside the cheeks and on teeth), body temperature changes, and digestive issues — it seems like there might be an underlying imbalance of pitta and kapha dosha, potentially contributing to an impaired agni (digestive fire) and accumulation of ama (toxins) in your system. However, it’s essential to consult a healthcare professional to rule out any serious conditions given the presence of heart pain and dark, tarry stool, which could indicate gastrointestinal bleeding or other serious concerns.

For managing the imbalance, here are some steps you might consider:

1. Diet: Focus on a pitta-kapha pacifying diet. This includes consuming foods that are light, dry, and cooling. Avoid spicy, oily, and heavy foods which can exacerbate pitta and kapha. Incorporate bitter and astringent foods such as green leafy vegetables and pomegranate.

2. Herbal Remedies: Neem (Azadirachta indica) can help balance kapha and act as an antifungal. You may take neem tablets or powder as per the recommended dose on the product you choose.

3. Hydration: Maintain adequate hydration with warm or room temperature water. You can add a pinch of turmeric to your water to enhance its cleansing properties.

4. Triphala: This traditional herbal formulation can support digestion and detoxification. Take 1 teaspoon of Triphala powder with warm water before bed to aid bowel movements and support overall gut health.

5. Lifestyle: Aim for a routine that balances rest and activity. prioritize regular sleep and stress management techniques such as yoga and pranayama to balance the body’s energy channels (nadis).

6. External Application: For the oral thrush, oil pulling with coconut oil or sesame oil in the morning can be beneficial. Swish the oil in your mouth for 10-15 minutes and then spit it out.

Remember, recurrent heart and stomach pain, as well as dark stool, necessitate prompt medical evaluation to exclude immediate threats to health. Always keep open communication with your physician regarding ongoing symptoms and changes in condition.

I am working as an Ayurvedic doctor since 2 yrs now, and honestly the more I work with patients, the more I realise how vast Ayurveda actually is—like it’s not just herbs n oils, it’s a whole mindset shift too. What I try to do daily is bring the traditional knowledge into actual usable treatment plans that ppl today can follow without feeling overwhelmed. Because yeah, modern life is fast, messy, complicated—and Ayurveda has to adapt, not stay frozen in texts. My focus is always to go beyond the symptom, like okay you’ve got acidity or hairfall or anxiety... but why? where is it sitting in the body? That’s where I do prakriti-vikriti analysis, diet breakdowns, gut evaluations—some ppl don’t even know their sleep patterns are messing up their hormones till we sit and talk it out. I don’t just push medicine. I explain why your food matters, why your bowel timings affect your skin, or how skipping breakfast can worsen PCOD. I keep it simple but sharp. Patients feel heard I think, coz I don’t rush. Even for lifestyle disorders like diabties, thyroid, IBS or stress burnouts—I try combining classical herbs with practical daily changes that they can actually do. And yeah, I constantly update myself—reading, workshops, CME’s, sometimes even just asking senior docs. Ayurveda is ancient, sure—but if you don’t bring it into present day logic, what’s the point right? Every person I treat kinda teaches me something new. No case is “small”, whether it's hairfall or constipation or sleep trouble... each one needs its own lens. I believe in being honest, open, and okay to say “I don’t know yet” till I study more. That’s how I grow, that’s how I care.

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. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with over 28 years of clinical experience dedicated to the principles and practice of authentic Ayurvedic medicine. Throughout my journey, I have had the privilege of treating more than 100,000 patients through both in-person consultations and online platforms. My approach is deeply rooted in classical Ayurvedic diagnostics—such as Nadi Pariksha (pulse examination), Roga-Rogi Pariksha (patient and disease evaluation), and a personalized assessment of prakriti (body constitution). Over the years, I have successfully managed a wide range of health conditions across all age groups—from acute infections and digestive issues to chronic and lifestyle disorders such as arthritis, diabetes, respiratory ailments, hormonal imbalances, and autoimmune conditions. I place strong emphasis on individualized care, combining herbal formulations, Panchakarma detox therapies, and dietary and lifestyle guidance to ensure long-term healing and disease prevention. My extensive experience also includes addressing complex, chronic illnesses that require a deep understanding of both the pathology and the patient’s overall constitution. I have worked with patients who had previously struggled with little success in other systems of medicine, and have guided many toward sustainable recovery and improved quality of life. Whether treating elderly patients with degenerative disorders or young adults facing hormonal or metabolic challenges, I strive to offer care that is compassionate, comprehensive, and evidence-informed. My goal is to empower patients with Ayurvedic wisdom so they can take an active role in their healing journey. I continue to remain updated with the evolving landscape of integrative health and value the importance of patient education, ethical practice, and consistent follow-up. For me, Ayurveda is not just a profession, but a lifelong commitment to restoring balance and promoting well-being, one patient at a time.

Dr. Ayushya Kumar Singh
I am someone who got into Ayurveda not just for treating diseases but cuz I always felt drawn to understanding why things go out of balance in the first place. My work’s rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—I’ve spent years studying them, not just memorizing shlokas but really figuring out what they mean in today’s context. At the same time, I also use modern diagnostic stuff where needed, just to get a fuller picture. Pulse diagnosis (Nadi Pariksha) is something I rely on a lot—it’s not easy to master but with practice, it kinda tells you what the body’s hiding, even before symptoms scream out loud. I focus mostly on chronic issues… like gut problems, fatigue, hormonal mess, skin disorders, and stress stuff that just doesn’t go away with tablets. I use herbal formulations (mostly customized), Panchakarma when needed—not in a one-size way but actually based on the person’s Prakriti and Vikriti. I also spend a good chunk of time explaining things to patients. Like why you should eat this in winter, or skip curd at night or not mix fruits with milk—little stuff people think doesn’t matter, but actually does in Ayurveda. Over time, I’ve realized people don’t just want relief, they want to understand how their body works again. That’s kinda where I feel most useful. I help patients reconnect with natural rhythms, daily routines, sleep cycles, digestion, seasons—all of it. And ya, it’s slow sometimes. But once things shift internally, you see it show up on the outside too. That’s what keeps me going honestly. Whether it’s stress or sluggish metabolism or just someone feeling “not right” without knowing why—I try to listen deep, go to the root n create a treatment path that’s realistic and sustainable. Not just ideal on paper. Healing, for me, is something we do together, not something I just hand over. I want people to feel heard n understood… and to believe their bodies can heal, with the right support. That’s what Ayurveda is to me—real, ancient, and still totally alive.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I’m Dr. Maitri, a second-year MD scholar specializing in Dravyaguna (Ayurvedic Pharmacology), with a strong foundation in classical Ayurvedic herbs and their therapeutic applications. I currently run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli, where I have been practicing for the past two years, offering personalized treatment plans rooted in the principles of Ayurveda. My clinical focus includes the management of PCOD, skin and hair disorders, and joint-related conditions such as arthritis, stiffness, and back pain. By integrating my academic training with hands-on experience, I strive to provide treatments that are both effective and sustainable. I place a strong emphasis on understanding each patient’s prakriti (individual constitution) and tailor therapies using medicinal herbs, dietary corrections (ahara), and lifestyle guidance (vihara) to restore balance and long-term health. Having a background in Dravyaguna allows me to apply the power of plant-based medicine with precision. I deeply study the rasa, guna, virya, vipaka, and prabhava of each herb before selecting them for my formulations. This ensures that my prescriptions are not just symptomatic but deeply curative, targeting the root causes of disease. In my practice, I have seen encouraging results in cases of hormonal imbalance, acne, pigmentation, premature hair fall, and chronic joint pain. I also guide patients through seasonal detox plans and rejuvenation therapies to enhance vitality and prevent recurrence of illness. I am passionate about making Ayurveda understandable and practical for today’s lifestyle. Whether it’s managing modern-day metabolic issues or offering natural beauty solutions, my goal is to empower patients with holistic tools for long-term well-being. As I continue my postgraduate journey, I remain committed to deepening my knowledge in medicinal plants and applying that wisdom to help patients heal naturally and completely.

Dr. Khushboo
I am someone who kinda started out in both worlds—Ayurveda and allopathy—and that mix really shaped how I see health today. My clinical journey began with 6 months of hands-on allopathic exposure at District Hospital Sitapur. Honestly, that place was intense. Fast-paced, high patient flow, constant cases of chronic and acute illnesses coming through. That taught me a lot about how to see disease. Not just treat it, but like… notice the patterns, get better at real-time diagnosis, really listen to what the patient isn’t saying out loud sometimes. It gave me this sharper sense of clinical grounding which I think still stays with me. Then I moved more deeply into Ayurveda and spent another 6 months diving into clinical training focused on Panchakarma therapies. Stuff like Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara—learned those not just as a list of techniques, but how and when to use 'em, especially for detox and deep healing. Every case felt like a different puzzle. There wasn’t always one right answer, you know? And that’s where I found I loved adapting protocols based on what the person actually needed, not just what the textbook says. Alongside that, I got certified in Garbha Sanskar through structured training. That really pulled me closer to maternal health. Pregnancy support through Ayurveda isn’t just about herbs or massage, it’s like this entire way of guiding a mother-to-be toward nourishing the baby right from conception—emotionally, physically, all of it. That part stuck with me hard. My overall approach? It’s kinda fluid. I believe in balancing natural therapies and evidence-based thinking. Whether it's seasonal imbalance, hormonal issues, Panchakarma detox plans, or just guiding someone on long-term wellness—I like making people feel safe, heard, and actually understood. I’m not into rushing plans or masking symptoms. I’d rather work together with someone to build something sustainable that really suits their body and where they’re at. In a way, I’m still learning every day. But my focus stays the same—use Ayurvedic wisdom practically, compassionately, and in a way that just... makes sense in real life.
