Fertility with low amh want to get pregnant - #26171

hello Priti, Your concern is completely valid, and you are not alone many men silently experience similar issues, especially when metabolic factors like high cholesterol, high triglycerides, stress, and mild habits like smoking come into play.

From an Ayurvedic view, this is a Shukra Kshaya + Vata Vriddhi condition. Over time, your reproductive strength (Shukra Dhatu) has weakened, and Vata (responsible for nerve function, circulation, and erection) has increased

Poor erection maintenance Low libido or interest Loss of penile strength or firmness

Your high triglycerides and occasional smoking further block the fine channels (srotas) that carry blood and energy to the reproductive organs. So even though you take tadalafil (a temporary vasodilator), the natural function remains weak without it.

But the good news is: this is not permanent, and can be corrected if approached steadily and holistically especially since you’re just 42.

internal medication (6–8 weeks minimum):

1. Chandraprabha Vati – 2 tablets twice daily after food 2. Shilajit Rasayan Vati – 1 tablet morning and evening with milk 3. Ashwagandha Avaleha (Lehyam) – 1 tsp at bedtime with warm milk 4. Kapikacchu Churna – ¼ tsp with honey and ghee in the morning (helps libido and sperm strength) 5. Gokshuradi Guggulu – 2 tabs twice daily (for urinary and prostate tone)

These build long-term stamina, nerve tone, and hormonal vitality without causing dependency.

Investigations to be Done:

If not done in the last 6 months:

Testosterone levels (free and total) Fasting lipid profile Liver and kidney function test Blood sugar (fasting + HbA1c) Serum prolactin Thyroid profile These help rule out underlying causes that silently reduce libido and erectile strength.

Diet & Lifestyle Tips:

Include daily:

Dates (2–3 soaked), black sesame seeds, cow ghee, warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg at bedtime Garlic sautéed in ghee or roasted 2–3 cloves Almonds (4 soaked), walnuts (2), 1 tsp soaked fenugreek at night

Avoid:

Smoking (even 1 cigarette reduces nitric oxide → erection strength) Heavy, oily, cold, or sour food Night-time screen exposure and stress before sleep

Practice:

Bhramari pranayama, Vajrasana after meals Pelvic floor strengthening (like Ashwini Mudra)

This is not a reflection of your worth or masculinity. Hormonal and vascular sluggishness happens silently, but with your age and current awareness, recovery is possible. If this has affected intimacy with your partner, gently communicating that you are taking natural efforts can rebuild trust and comfort.

You’re not too late. The body heals when given the right support. If followed well, most people start noticing better morning erections, increased desire, and improved strength within 6–8 weeks.

Concerns regarding low AMH levels at a young age can feel overwhelming, yet there’s space within Ayurveda to offer support. Low AMH suggests diminished ovarian reserve, but keep in mind this doesn’t entirely dictate your fertility journey. First-and-foremost, addressing menstrual irregularities is crucial. Ayurveda regards balance in doshas, especially Vata and Pitta, vital for women reproductive health.

Exploring dietary changes can be beneficial. Include nutrient-dense foods like whole grains, legumes, nuts,and seeds. Steer clear of processed foods, excess caffeine or alcohol. Adding warm, nourishing foods that balance Vata such as cooked vegetables and ghee can support digestive fire, or Agni, essential for nutrient absorption. Herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari are known for rejuvenative effects; these may support reproductive endocrinology. Consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner to determine individual suitability of these herbs.

Essentially lifestyle plays a significant role, too. Regualting sleep patterns, engaging in gentle yoga or meditation can help balance stress that might affect your cycles. Stress reduction is significant, as high cortisol levels could impact menstruation and fertility. Amp up your routine with Abhyanga, self-massage with warm herbal oils, to harmonize dosha and promote relaxation.

Consider tracking your cycle to understand your patterns—whether through basal body temperature or ovulation kits. It’s wise to confirm pregnancy via a test, since missed periods can be stress induced or indeed indicative. Further medical evaluation might be worthwhile if cycles continue irregular. Consulting with a healthcare provider who’s knowledgeable about both Ayurveda and conventional approaches would be valuable so that you can integrate these insights effectively with any necessary medical care.

Considering your situation, the focus should be on supporting reproductive health and balancing the underlying factors that might impact it. In the Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, balancing the body’s doshas is crucial for optimal reproductive function. With low AMH levels, it may suggest an imbalance in the vata dosha, which can affect the reproductive system.

Start by ensuring that your daily routine fosters tranquility and stability. Prioritize grounding activities, such as a consistent sleep schedule and meals. Mornings might be a suitable time for gentle exercises like yoga or walking. Additionally, warm and nourishing meals— like cooked vegetables, whole grains, and soupy dals—help maintain vata balance.

Herbs such as Shatavari and Ashwagandha are traditionally used to support the female reproductive system. Taking Shatavari can help nourish the reproductive tissues, while Ashwagandha, can balance hormones and alleviate stress. It’s best to consult a local practitioner for guidance on dosage, and form.

Manage stress, as both mental and physical stressors can disrupt menstrual cycles and reproductive health. Incorporate practices like meditation, pranayama (breathing exercises), or simply spending time in nature.

Regularly check your pregnancy status as well; early detection is important for a healthy pregnancy. If menstrual irregularities persist, it’s wise to consult with a healthcare provider for further assessment. Remember, integrating Ayurvedic practices alongside contemporary medical advice often offers a more comprehensive approach to health.
