Boil:
½ tsp cinnamon
1 tsp fennel seeds (saunf)
½ tsp flax seeds
1–2 tulsi leaves → Strain and sip daily.

🔸 3. HIRSUTISM (FACIAL/BODY HAIR)
Why: Due to high androgens (testosterone).
✅ Natural Remedies:
Spearmint tea: 1–2 cups daily – clinically shown to reduce androgens.
Flax seeds: 1 tbsp daily (grind fresh).
Avoid sugar, dairy, and processed wheat – all trigger testosterone production.
✅ Face pack for unwanted hair (use 3x/week):
Besan + turmeric + rose water
Add a pinch of raw papaya paste (enzyme helps weaken follicles over time)

Hello divya
Thank you for reaching out. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) in lean body type women often goes undiagnosed longer because weight gain isn’t a major symptom. However, issues like hirsutism (facial/body hair), acne, irregular cycles, and central fat deposition (belly fat) still indicate a hormonal and metabolic imbalance, especially involving androgens (male hormones), insulin resistance, and sluggish digestion. In Ayurveda, this reflects Kapha-Vata imbalance, artava dushti, and often ama accumulation.
Here’s a treatment plan with Ama Pachana first, followed by targeted medicines to address the main symptoms. This plan is safe, natural, and best followed for at least 3–6 months.
Treatment Plan
1. Ama Pachana (First 7 Days)
• Hingwashtaka Churna – ½ tsp with warm water before lunch and dinner
• Trikatu Churna – 1 pinch with honey, once daily before breakfast
2. Internal Medications (From Day 8 onwards)
• Kanchanara Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food (balances hormones, reduces ovarian cysts)
• Punarnava Mandura – 2 tablets after breakfast and dinner (improves metabolism, reduces water retention)
• Rajapravartini Vati – 2 tablets twice daily, only for 7 days before expected period (to induce and regulate periods)
• Manjishtadi Kashayam – 20 ml with equal water, twice daily before food (purifies blood, helps with acne and pigmentation)
3. External and Dietary Advice
• Apply Kumkumadi tailam or Aloe Vera gel at night for acne/pigmentation
• Avoid dairy, sugar, maida, deep-fried foods
• Add soaked fenugreek seeds and ½ tsp of flaxseeds in your daily diet
• Do 20 minutes of brisk walking and 15 minutes of yoga (focus on surya namaskar, Bhramari pranayama)
Suggested Investigations
• Serum LH, FSH (Day 2–3 of period)
• Serum Testosterone, DHEA-S
• Pelvic USG (if not recently done)
• HbA1c (to check insulin resistance)
This is a gentle and steady process aim to heal rather than suppress symptoms. Let me know your current period pattern (last 3 cycles), any medications you’ve taken before, or if there’s a family history of PCOS for a more personalized approach.
Warm regards,
Dr. Karthika

Hi Divya,
Hirsutism, acne, irregular menstrual cycle are related to PCOS. Kindly share your USG report. Could you please provide details about your menstrual cycle, such as the date of your last period and the typical length of your cycle (e.g., 35 days)?
1. Saptasaram kashayam 15 ml + 45 ml lukewarm water twice daily before food.
2. Asokarishtam 10 ml twice daily after food.
3. Rajapravarthini vati 1-0-1 after food.
The above medications are prescribed to help regulate your menstrual cycle and stimulate menstrual flow. Stop these medicines during periods.

HELLO DIVYA,
PCOS means that your ovaries are not working normally. Instead of releasing one healthy egg every month, your ovaries are producing many small immature eggs that stay inside and form small fluid- filled sacs or cysts
Think of your body as a system of hormones that must stay in balance.
IN PCOS
-the body makes too many male hormones which women also have in small amounts
- this stops ovulation, causing irregular or no periods
-it also affect insulin, a hormone that controls blood sugar. If insulin is not working properly(insulin resistance), it makes the body gain weight and worsens pcod.
In Ayurveda, PCOS is caused by an imbalance in the kapha and vata doshas, leading to
-ama(toxins) blocking the channels in your ovaries
-slow metabolism(poor digestion- weak agni)
- hormonal irregularities
- stress(aggravates vata) adding to iiregularity
INTERNALLY START WITH
1) M2 TONE SYRUP(by charak)= 2 tsp twice daily after meals
= helps ovaries work better, bring back your periods regularly
2) KANCHANAR GUGGULU( baidyanth/ AVP)= 2 tabs twice dailyafter meals with warm water
= melts small cysts in your ovaries, supports thyroid and weight loss
3) ASHOKARISHTA(baidyanth/dabur)= 2 tsp with equal water twice daily after meals
= regulates periods, reduces heavy bleeding and pain, supports uterus
4) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime
= clears toxins from your body and improves digestion
5) EVECARE CAPSULES(by himalaya)= 1 cap twice daily after meals
=balances hormones, improves ovarian function, regularises periods
DIET PLAN
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
FOODS TO AVOID
-cold and raw foods like smoothies, raws salads
- sugar and white bread=causes weight gain and acne
-fried or packaged foods= increases toxins
-milk,panner,cheese= can make cysts worse
-stress and late night= disrupts hormones
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
PCOS 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
DO FOLLOW THIS CONSISTENTLY FOR 3 MONTHS
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU
DR. MAITRI ACHARYA
