How to managehigh prolactin, insomnia and alopecia - #26279

Nikieta

I'm a 34 year old Female. I have high prolactin, insomnia, alopecia, obesity, insulin resistance, gut issues. Low motivation, mood swings, lack of energy. Have been facing these issuesfor more than 5 years. Have tried glycomet but it doesn't suit me so stopped, was taking melatonin and later zol fresh tablet for sleep but now body is resistant to it so stopped that too. I feel like eatinga lot of carbs because ofgut issues and insulin resistance. But slowly trying to add more proteinin diet. Most dals cause bloating and acidity in mycase but recently I am able have white chickpea and black chickpea without much bloating. However most other dals cause bloating and discomfort. Used to use minoxidil for alopecia for about 3-4 years, then stopped it because of side effects and lost the hair again. It has becomevery thin, frizzy and difficult to manage.

Age: 34
Chronic illnesses: Asthma, insulin resistance, high prolactin, insomnia and alopecia

I am Dr Misba Gaded and ya, I'm an Ayurvedic physician with a BAMS degree—Ayurveda isn’t just my profession, it kinda became the way I see health, honestly. I mainly focus on general wellness n women’s health.. both areas really close to me for different reasons. Over time, I’ve got used to seeing a wide range of stuff like skin problems (those chronic ones that keep bouncing back), obesity, digestion that just won’t stay calm, joint pain that lingers, and typical things like constant fatigue or that never-ending cough & mild fevers. Sometimes it's more about untangling what's not obvious, right? One of my deeper areas of interest is women’s wellness.. I deal a lot with hormonal mess-ups—like PCOS, irregular periods, ovarian cysts, or issues around garbhashaya (womb care). Most women I meet are juggling so much, and it's like, they forget their own balance in all that. I try to bring that back through a mix of Ayurvedic herbs, food tweaks, daily routine shifts and even simple yoga flows if they’re open to that. Not like some magic fix in a bottle kinda thing.. it’s more patient, more layered. Sometimes we go all classical—formulations from the granthas, tailor-made to the person's prakriti and vikruti. Other times it’s just about cleaning up gut stuff and giving digestion some peace. That helps a lot more than people expect. I don't usually rush through consults, coz I need to really listen—sometimes what a person’s not saying tells you more than what they are. Anyway, I’m not into overcomplicating treatment or going all flashy about Ayurveda. I like keeping it rooted. I just want to help people feel more “at ease” in their own body again, whether it’s through a ghee-prep or a lifestyle reset or calming an aggravated pitta that's burning them from inside out. That's kinda the space I work in. Every person comes in with their own story.. I just try to meet them where they are and walk with them from there.

HELLO NIKIETA,

You are experiencing a combination of hormonal, metabolic, nervous system, and digestive disorders.

High prolactin= hormonal imbalance due to stress, impaired metabolism(kapha-vata aggravation)

Insomnia= Vata imbalance (racing thoughts, nervous system hyperactivity)

Alopecia(hair fall)= poor digestion(Agni) , excess vata and pitta in scalp, stress, low nutrition

Obesity, Insulin resistance= Kapha and Meda (fat tissue) accumulation, weak Agni(digestive fire)

Gut issues, bloating= weak digestive fire (Mandagni), vata imbalance in intestines

Mood swings, low energy= vata-pitta imbalance, chronic stress, poor nutrition, hormonal dysregulation

HOW THESE CONDITIONS CONNECT -High prolactin may be due to stress or pituitary imbalance (linked with adrenal exhaustion) -Insulin resistance and obesity further disturb hormones, worsen sleep, increase cravings -Poor digestion leads to “Ama” (toxins), which further disturbs metabolism, energy, skin and hair -Hair loss is a symptom of deeper nutritional, digestive and hormonal issues.

TREATMENT GOAL -balance kapha, reduce ama(toxins) -restore Agni(digestive and metabolic fire) -calm Vata (especially for sleep, stress, digestion) -support healthy hormones (especially prolactin, insulin) -nourish hair tissues (Asthi and Majja dhatus) -improve emotional and mental wellbeing

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

**FOR HORMONAL BALANCE

Nikita, you’re facing a multi system imbalance, but Ayurveda can help deeply because it dosen’t treat symptoms in isolation- it works by balancing the entire body-mind system. -start slowly with diet and medications -be consistent for 3-6 months

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

hello nikieta, you’re facing a complex but connected set of issues that all relate to hormonal imbalance, metabolic sluggishness, and gut disturbance. High prolactin, insulin resistance, obesity, alopecia, mood swings, and insomnia are all symptoms that suggest disturbed Agni (digestive fire) and blocked channels (srotorodha), especially of Manovaha srotas (mind-body pathway), Rasavaha and Medovaha srotas (nutrient and fat metabolism). Years of imbalance, wrong diet, or chronic stress can cause Ama (toxins) accumulation and disturb Vata–Kapha, worsening both physical and mental health. Medicines alone won’t work unless digestion is corrected first, so we’ll start with Ama Pachana (toxin removal) and then give core treatment.

Phase 1: Ama Pachana (first 5–7 days)

Hingwashtak Churna – 1 tsp with warm water before meals Triphala Churna – 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime

Phase 2: Main Medicines (start after 7 days of above)

Kanchanara Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after meals Chandraprabha Vati – 2 tablets twice daily after meals Ashwagandha Churna – ½ tsp with warm milk at bedtime Sutshekhar Ras (Plain) – 1 tablet before food twice daily (for acidity and bloating) Ayaskriti – 10 ml with equal warm water after meals (for iron and metabolism) Brahmi Vati (Gold optional) – 1 tablet at night for sleep, stress, memory

Hair Support (External)

Neelibhringadi Tailam – Apply warm oil on scalp 2–3 times a week, leave for 1 hour, wash with herbal shampoo Shikakai & Arappu powder mix – Herbal hair wash weekly instead of chemical shampoos

Follow-up: Review after 6–8 weeks.

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

Based on the symptoms you’ve described, it seems like there’s a complex interaction between your dosha imbalances that needs attention. High prolactin, alopecia, insomnia, insulin resistance, and gut issues indicate a combination of Vata and Kapha imbalances.

For managing high prolactin, consider incorporating Shatavari powder in your daily routine - about 1 teaspoon mixed with warm milk before bed. It’s renowned in Ayurveda for balancing hormones and can help manage prolactin levels naturally. It’s usually safe but, check with your practitioner if you have specific health conditions.

Insomnia can be alleviated with Ashwagandha or Brahmi. Try taking Ashwagandha powder - half a teaspoon mixed with warm milk or water, in the morning. It helps in reducing stress and promotes sound sleep. Brahmi can be taken in capsule form, once daily, which aids cognitive functions and calms the mind, which might also indirectly aid sleep.

For alopecia and hair health, consider Bhringraj oil - gently massage your scalp with the oil before washing your hair a couple of times a week. Including Amla in your diet is also beneficial due to its high vitamin C content that nourishes hair and promotes growth.

Gut issues are likely contributing to your cravings for carbs. Pippali powder can aid digestion and improve metabolic activities. Take a pinch of it with honey before meals. Adding fresh ginger in your tea or meals can help alleviate bloating and discomfort caused by legumes, you might try soaking dals overnight and then throw away the soaking water before cooking to reduce bloating — and start with small amounts to see how you tolerate it.

For insulin resistance, a balanced diet with low glycemic index foods, and regular moderate exercise like brisk walking for at least 30 minutes daily is beneficial. Avoid refined sugars and opt for whole grains in moderated quantities.

Keeping hydrated is essential, so drink plenty of lukewarm throughout the day. Plus, managing stress through Yoga and Pranayama can also have positive effects on overall health and mood swings.

Assessing your body’s response to each advice is crucial - sometimes what works for one may not for another. Keep track of any changes and adjust the regimen as needed, possibly with the guidance of a trained Ayurvedic practitioner, ensuring you’re working safely towards relief from these chronic issues.

To address high prolactin, insomnia, and alopecia holistically, consider focusing on balancing your body’s doshas and improving digestive health. These issues may be linked to vitiated vata and kapha dosha, imbalanced agni, and impacted digestive system.

1. Diet and Nutrition: Start by incorporating a vata-pacifying diet; focus on warm, cooked meals that are easy to digest. Favor whole grains like quinoa and millets, and vegetables such as cooked carrots, zucchinis, and squash. Since dals cause bloating, consider mung beans, which are often easier to digest, in small quantities.

2. Herbal Remedies: For high prolactin and to support hair health, bring in adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha, which can help balance hormones and also support sleep. Brahmi and Jatamansi are beneficial too for calming vata and improving sleep. For alopecia, Bhringraj oil can be massaged into the scalp regularly.

3. Daily Routine: Develop a consistent daily schedule, rising with the sun and eating at regular intervals to stabilize energy levels and metabolic processes. Prioritize gentle morning stretches or yoga to enhance circulation and reduce stress.

4. Digestive Health: Consume herbal teas like ginger tea or cumin-coriander-fennel tea to support digestion and reduce bloating. Consider a small piece of ginger with a few drops of lemon juice and salt before meals to stimulate agni.

5. Stress Management: Stress can exacerbate all these conditions, so incorporate meditation or pranayama into your daily routine. Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) can be particularly calming to the nervous system and may aid in insomnia and mood swings.

6. Sleep Hygiene: Establish a calming pre-sleep routine; turn off screens an hour before bed and opt for a warm bath or reading to wind down. Avoid caffeine and heavy meals in the evening.

Given your symptoms and ongoing issues, it’s important to work alongside a healthcare professional to monitor hormone levels and adjust the approach as needed, especially for insulin resistance and obesity. These conditions require comprehensive management and regular medical follow-ups to prevent long-term complications.

I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

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. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

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. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

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. 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. 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. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.
