HELLO PRACHI,

You are likely Kapha-pitta predominant, which means your body naturally tends to gain weight, hold water, and have issues related to digestion and metabolism, especially if your lifestyle is sedentary or stressful

WHAT IS PCOD IN AYURVEDA? In Ayurveda, PCOD is described as a yoni vyapad(disorder of female reproductive system), especially “ARTAVA DUSHTI”(impure or disturbed menstrual blood). It mainly occurs due to -Kapha accumulation= blocked the channels and causes cysts -medo dhatu (fat tissue) imbalance - agni(digestive fire) is low- causing poor metabolism -Aama(toxins) formulation due to indigestion food

THIS CAUSES -irregular and painful periods -hormonal imbalance - obesity -hairfall/acne - mood swings/anxiety

TREATMENT GOALS -reduces excess kapha and meda(fat) -clears aama(toxins) and improve agni(metabolism) -balance hormones naturally - regulates menstrual cycle and reduce pain - calm the mind and reduce anxiety (Manas doshas)

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT

1) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime for 3-6 months =removes toxins, improves gut health, help with weight loss

2) KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals with warm water for 3-6 months =reduces swelling, cysts, lymphatic congestion, and fat

3) ASHOKARISHTA= 2 tsp with equal water after meals for 3 months =balances female hormones and reduces pain and heavy bleeding

4) SHATAVARI GRANULES= 1 tsp with milk twice daily in morning and night for 3-4 months =supports hormonal balance and relieves anxiety

5) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 2 tabs twice daily before for for 2 months =enhances metabolism, clears toxins from liver

6) BRAHMI VATI= 1 tab at night for 2-3 months = improves mood, reduces stress and helps sleep

DIET

AVOID -sugar, jaggery, sweets, bakery ,maida -fried and processed foods - milk and curd- especially at night - cold water, soft drinks -excess rice, potatoes, bananas - non veg food- limit or avoid

FOODS TO INCLUDE

1) WHOLE GRAINS -millets= foxtail, barnyard, kodo, little millet- regulate insulin and reduce fat -quinoa, amaranth, red/brown rice -rolled oats(not instant)

2) VEGETABLES -focus on bitter, pungent, and astringent food -bitter gourd, drumstick, methi -cabbage, cauliflower, spinach, ash gourd -avoid raw salads, cook lightly and digestive spices

3) FRUITS(LOW GLYCEMIC) -amla=fresh or churna -pomegrante -apples, pears, papaya, berries

4) PROTEINS -Plant based= Moong dal, massor dal, horse gram, sprouted lentils -Animal based (if non veg)= boiled eggs, grilled fish(2 times/week)

5) HEALTHY FATS -cold pressed sesame oil -ghee=1 tsp/day -flax seed oil -seeds= flax, chia, pumpkin seeds- support estrogen balance

6) HERBS AND SPICES -turmeric, cinnamon, fenugreek, cumin, coriander, ajwian, -black pepper+ ginger

LIFESTYLE CHANGES FOR DEEP HEALING

1) DAILY RHYTHM -wake up before 7 am= sets hormonal rhythm -hydration=warm water with lemon+pinch of turmeric or methi seeds water(soaked overnight) -meal timing= eat meals at regular intervals; no skipping -sleep= sleep by 10-10:30 pm to optimise melatonin and cortisol balance -avoid excessive screen time, especially before sleep

DETOX PRACTICES TO FOLLOW these helps removes toxins and reduce cyst formation -Triphala churna= 1 tsp at night with warm water -CASTOR OIL=montly one 10 ml in milk at night -Self oil massage= sesame oil daily before shower -TAKRA- buttermilk spiced with cumin and ginger daily after lunch

YOGA AND MOVEMENT

BEST YOGA ASANAS -malasana= opens pelvic region -baddha konasana= improves circulation to ovaries -Bhujangasana= stimulates abdominal organs -setu bandhasana= balances thyroid and pelvic hormones -suryanamskar= 5-7 rounds

PRANAYAM -nadi sodhana= balances hormones, calms mind - bhramari= reduces anxiety and supports pitutary -kapalbhati= light version, support metabolism

MIND BODY CONNECTION PCOD is deeply linked with stress and emotional stagnation -practicue gratitude journaling, emotional release -engage in art, music, or nature therapy -reduce overthinking and over working- both aggravate vata

WEIGHT LOSS TIPS FOR PCOD -start your day with warm lemon water or methi water - eat light dinner before 7:30 pm -avoid emotional or binge eating- eat mindfully -chew slowly- improves digestion and satiety - avoid cold drinks- slows metabolism - drink triphala or cumin-fenugreek tea after meals - be consistent- small changes daily give long-term results

You are young and your body can heal beautifully if you follow a natural, consistent, and gentle routine. Ayurveda works slow but deep- give your body time. Don’t panic with slow progress. Even 5-10 % weight loss with greatly improve PCOD symptoms

DO FOLLOW THIS CONSISTENTLY FOR 3 MONTHS

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

hello Prachi,

Thank you for sharing clearly. What you’re experiencing — delayed periods, weight gain, hair loss, pigmentation, and low mood — are common symptoms seen in PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease). This condition affects your hormones, metabolism, and ovulation. The root cause often lies in hormonal imbalance, excess Kapha & Meda (fat tissue), and poor digestion and metabolism (Agni imbalance). But it is reversible, with regular effort.

In PCOD, your ovaries don’t release eggs properly due to hormonal disturbance. This causes periods to become irregular or stop altogether. Excess androgens (male hormones) also lead to facial hair, hair fall, acne, and pigmentation. Because your metabolism is slow, weight increases easily, especially around the belly. Over time, this affects your mental health too — mood swings, sadness, low confidence, etc.

You’re not alone in this — but continuing to depend on pills every month is not the long-term answer. Ayurveda can help restart natural cycles, reduce cysts, improve hair and skin, and uplift your mood, slowly but steadily.

Treatment Plan: 1. Ama Pachana (First 3–5 days)

To clean gut and improve metabolism before hormone regulation:

Trikatu Churna – ½ tsp with warm water before lunch and dinner Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp at night with warm water (for digestion, bloating)

2. Internal Medicines (Start after 3–5 days):

Pushyanug Churna – 1 tsp with honey and warm water twice daily Rajahpravartini Vati – 1 tablet twice daily after meals (for regular periods) Kanchanar Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily (for cyst resolution, weight) Ashokarishta – 20 ml with equal water twice daily after meals Manasmitra Vatakam – 1 tablet at bedtime (for anxiety and mood balance)

Diet + Lifestyle (Important as medicine): Avoid milk, curd, sugar, bakery, fried foods Include jeera water, methi water, and soaked almonds in the morning Eat dinner by 7:30 PM, avoid lying down immediately Do 15–20 mins brisk walk + surya namaskar (5 rounds) daily Practice Bhramari Pranayama and Anulom Vilom (for hormonal and mental balance)

Investigations to Be Done (if not already): Pelvic Ultrasound Serum FSH, LH, Prolactin Fasting Insulin & Glucose Vitamin D3 & B12

How many months have you not got your periods naturally? Are you currently taking any hormonal pills or allopathy medicines? What is your usual energy level — tired all day or active sometimes?

This needs consistent support — but you can get back your cycles naturally, improve hair, and feel like yourself again. Let’s go step-by-step with patience. Take care and feel free to follow up.

1. Sapthasaram kashayam 15 ml + 45 ml lukewarm water twice daily before food. 2. Rajapravarthini vati 1-0-1 after food. 3. Asokarishtam 15 ml twice daily after food.

Dealing with PCOD, known in Ayurveda as Aartava Kshaya or Yoni Vyapad, can be challenging, but with a holistic approach, you can find improvement. PCOD is often linked to an imbalance of the Kapha dosha, affecting metabolism, leading to weight gain, and hormonal imbalance. Integrating Ayurvedic principles can support natural balance and harmony in your body. Focus first on diet—consume light, warm, and easily digestible foods to boost your Agni (digestive fire), which is crucial for correcting imbalances. Avoid processed foods, excess sugar, and dairy if intolerance exists, as these aggravate Kapha and can worsen symptoms.

Daily intake of herbs such as Shatavari and Ashwagandha can promote hormonal balance. Shatavari is known to support reproductive health and regulate menstrual cycles, while Ashwagandha helps reduce stress and stabilize mood swings. Dosage is crucial; typically, 1 teaspoon mixed with warm milk or water once or twice daily, but consult with a practitioner for personalized recommendations.

Yoga plays a vital role; poses like Baddha Konasana (Bound Angle Pose) and Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) enhance blood circulation and stimulate your reproductive organs. Practicing daily with Pranayama, especially Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing), can alleviate stress and anxiety, often associated with hormonal imbalance.

Regular Abhyanga (self-massage) with warm sesame or coconut oil can pacify Vata, which influences mental health, while also nourishing your skin, potentially reducing pigmentation. This can be done before bathing for 15 to 20 minutes daily. Allowing yourself moments of mindfulness can also ease the spirit—meditation or simple deep-breathing exercises can support mental well-being.

If these suggestions do not alleviate symptoms, continuous medical supervision is essential. Though Ayurveda can assist in rebalancing your systems, make sure to continue with, follow, or adjust any necessary allopathic treatments in coordination with your healthcare providers.

Polycystic Ovary Disease (PCOD) can indeed disrupt your balance and wellbeing, often due to aggravated Kapha dosha and hormonal imbalances. In Siddha-Ayurvedic practice, the focus will be on restoring this balance through diet, lifestyle, and herbal remedies, while also addressing metabolic fire (agni) issues.

Firstly, let’s focus on diet and lifestyle adjustments. Reducing consumption of refined carbs and sugars is important as they can lead to weight gain and further exacerbate Kapha imbalance. Favor whole grains (like quinoa or barley), plenty of fresh vegetables, and lean proteins. Avoid cold and heavy foods, as they can worsen Kapha. Incorporating daily physical activity is vital, whether it’s yoga, brisk walking, or a form of exercise you enjoy – aim for at least 30 minutes most days.

Herbs like Shatavari and Ashwagandha are known for supporting reproductive health and hormonal balance. Triphala can help improve digestion and aid in weight management. Prepare a herbal tea with equal parts of cinnamon and ginger – this may help regulate your menstrual cycle by stimulating agni.

For hair loss and skin pigmentation, Bhringraj oil applied to the scalp and a paste of turmeric and sandalwood for spots can be beneficial. Also, take a teaspoon of flaxseeds daily, as they’re high in Omega-3s, which supports hair and skin health.

Mental depression often linked to Vata imbalance, consider practicing meditation or Pranayama to calm the mind. However, please note it’s crucial to consult with a healthcare provider or an Ayurvedic practitioner to personalize this approach further, especially given symptoms can vary and regular follow-ups are necessary. Continue any medications previously prescribed unless advised by your doctor, and always discuss any changes in your health plan.

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. 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. Anjali Sehrawat
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. Sanchi Damodhar
I am an Ayurvedic doctor with about 3 years of hands-on experience, mainly dealing with lifestyle disorders like PCOD, weight gain, diabetes, stress, and gut stuff—like bloating or weak digestion or just that feeling something’s off. I did my BAMS coz I was really drawn toward natural healing, not just the herbs part, but how everything connects—mind, food, sleep, mood... all of it. What I really try to focus on is not just giving medicine n sending people off. I like to understand what’s behind the symptoms... like why their metabolism’s slowed down or why they keep getting acidity despite eating less. That’s where my work with diet and mindset come in. I use Ayurvedic principles, yes, but I also mix it with small practical stuff—daily routines, sleep hygiene, stress release, food planning, whatever feels doable for that person. It’s not always about detoxes or strict regimens, though sometimes that helps too. Depends, really. I’ve seen good results when people actually get that they don’t need to do huge things. Just right guidance at the right time. I try to keep things light in consultation, make people feel heard, not rushed. I genuinely like when someone says “no one explained it to me like this before” — that feels nice. My whole approach is basically trying to make health feel natural again. Nothing fancy. Just rooted in the real Ayurvedic logic and a lot of listening. And yes, there’s trial and error sometimes, every case is different. But that’s what makes it kind of real. If you're dealing with any of those everyday-but-tiring health issues, I’ll do my best to figure it out with you—not just for now, but in a way that holds up longer term.

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. 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. Cherukuri Savitha Varenya
I am Dr. Cherukuri Savitha Varenya — Ayurvedic physician with a heart set on blending classical healing with today’s complex health realities. My early clinical experience was rooted in pediatric and neonatal care, where I worked as a Duty Medical Officer at Ankura Hospitals and also at Paramita. Those years in the NICU and PICU taught me more than just protocols — how to really hold space for families in chaos, how to stay calm, and how small things matter... like explaining something twice if needed, or just sitting down next to a worried parent. That grounding in acute care gave me a different lens when I stepped deeper into Ayurveda. I started exploring traditional systems more deeply — Siddha medicine caught my attention first, then marma therapy. I trained at Chakrasiddh Holistic Healing Centre, where the cases were not always straightforward. Chronic pain, neuro issues, degenerative stuff, lifestyle burnout — we weren’t just treating, we were unblocking. That work showed me how body memory holds trauma, and how marma can quietly reset systems that are stuck. Right now, I’m part of the clinical and research team at Vasavi Ayurveda, where I’m involved in herbal formulation — and it’s really rewarding. Developing products that are not only rooted in Ayurvedic texts but backed by evidence & outcomes is something I care about deeply. We're not just bottling herbs — we’re trying to build trust through results. Whether I’m working with children, supporting women with hormonal irregularities, or designing a remedy for joint stiffness — I try to bring empathy first. I don’t rush through consultations. I listen, ask again if needed, and tailor treatments that feel livable to the patient. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all protocols, never did. Ayurveda isn’t separate from life. It is life, seen through a different lens. I just try to help ppl see that clearly, one case at a time.

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. Amina CA
I am still kinda wrapping my head around how much has happned in just these last 8 months. I got to see over 500 patients—not just names on a file but real ppl with stories, symptoms that didn’t match books, and responses to treatment that taught me a lot more than classroom ever did. Every single case added something—sometimes confidence, sometimes doubt, but mostly clarity about why Ayurveda needs to be personal. That whole idea of root-cause isn’t just a phrase to me now, cause I’ve actually *done* the work of figuring it out—through prakriti reading, hetu analysis, tailoring herbs to that one stubborn thing that wouldn’t budge unless I got it right. Started off at the Govt Ayurveda Dispensary, Paingottoor (Mar-April 2024), juggling OPD and learning to keep things practical—what you *can* do with limited time and still follow classical line of treatment. Moved to Nellimattom next month, same OPD scene but somehow I felt more ready—like I knew what I was looking for during consultation. Then came the big shifts—District Ayurveda Hospital, Thodupuzha—Shalya Tantra for a month (May-June). Learning surgical concepts, wound management, minor procedures, all that opened up a whole diff layer of Ayurveda for me. After that was NARIP, Cheruthuruthy (June-July)—real-deal Panchakarma, hands-on, under ppl who *really* knew the texts and the techiques. I saw how deep detox can go when it’s done right. Then Shalakya Tantra (ENT + eye care, July-Aug)—very niche but suprisingly common complaints. By Sept I was at Sparsh Ayurvedic Clinic, Nellimattom, and that place blended modern diagnostics with our way of thinking. Helped me sharpen decisions fast, without losing authenticity of the classical tools. All that put together—it's shaped me into a doctor who listens more, assumes less, and keeps asking, "what’s *actually* causing this?” before reaching for a remedy. I want my patients to heal for real—not temporarily cope. That's the goal every single time.

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.
