Dear one, Thank you for opening up and trusting me with what you’re going through. I want you to know you are not alone in this. What you're facing with PCOD isn’t just physical; it’s something that touches your self-confidence, your emotions, and your everyday peace. And I completely understand how hard that can be the irregular periods, the facial hair, the sudden weight gain, acne, hair fall it can all feel unfair and overwhelming, especially when you’re just trying to live normally. But here’s something I want to remind you of your body is not against you. It’s simply asking for help. Ayurveda sees PCOD as a deep imbalance of hormones, digestion, and emotions and the good news is that this can be corrected, gently and naturally, over time. There is a way forward that doesn’t rely on suppressing symptoms, but rather restores your body’s own intelligence and rhythm. So let’s begin this journey with hope and a clear plan. Step-by-Step Healing for PCOD (Ayurvedic Plan) Phase 1: Clearing Toxins (First 5–7 days) Right now, we must first calm your system and help your digestion work properly again. Trikatu Churna – ¼ tsp with warm water before meals (twice daily). This will help boost digestion and melt hormonal blockages. Punarnavadi Kashayam – 15 ml with equal water, twice a day before food. It helps to reduce swelling, puffiness, and internal water retention. Eat light, warm meals — like moong dal, lauki, red rice — and sip warm water through the day. Avoid dairy and sugar during this phase. Phase 2: Hormonal Reset & Cycle Regulation (From Day 8 onward) Rajapravartini Vati – 2 tablets at bedtime (promotes healthy menstrual flow) Kanchanar Guggulu – 2 tablets after food, twice daily (shrinks cysts, balances hormones) Ashokarishta – 20 ml with equal water after lunch and dinner (regulates periods and reduces pain) Shatavari Kalpa – 1 tsp with warm water in the morning (nourishes reproductive strength) Phase 3: Skin, Hair & Emotional Balance Manjishtha Churna – ¼ tsp with honey at night (purifies blood, clears acne and pigmentation) Bhringarajasava – 15 ml with water twice a day (for hair fall and scalp health) Apply Neelibhringadi oil 3x/week on scalp – massage gently and wash with mild herbal shampoo Drink 1 cup of spearmint tea daily – it naturally reduces facial hair by calming excess androgens Daily Habits to Support Healing: Practice yoga or walk 30 minutes daily – even a gentle stretch helps your hormones Breathe deeply twice a day — try Nadi Shodhana Pranayama (10 mins daily) Eat your meals on time, don’t skip breakfast Sleep by 10:30 pm — your hormones repair while you sleep Optional Investigations (if not done already) Ultrasound pelvis (to track cysts) LH, FSH, Prolactin, Testosterone Thyroid (TSH), Vitamin D, B12 HbA1c (to assess sugar-insulin balance) This is not your fault. Your body has been trying to talk to you — through your skin, your periods, your hair — and now that you’re listening, everything can change. Be kind to yourself. Don’t rush. Even if it takes a few months, the healing will happen, and you’ll feel lighter, healthier, and more like yourself again. Whenever you feel stuck, unsure, or tired of the journey just remember: you’re not alone. I’m here. This is what we do in Ayurveda we walk together until your body finds its balance again. Take the first step your body will do the rest, beautifully. Warmly, Dr. Karthika Ayurveda Consultant

Dr. Khushboo
I am a dedicated Ayurvedic practitioner with a diverse foundation in both modern and traditional systems of medicine. My journey began with six months of hands-on experience in allopathic medicine at District Hospital Sitapur, where I was exposed to acute and chronic care in a high-volume clinical setting. This experience strengthened my diagnostic skills and deepened my understanding of patient care in an allopathic framework. Complementing this, I have also completed six months of clinical training in Ayurveda and Panchakarma, focusing on natural detoxification and rejuvenation therapies. During this time, I gained practical experience in classical Ayurvedic treatments, including Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara, and other Panchakarma modalities. I strongly believe in a patient-centric approach that blends the wisdom of Ayurveda with the clinical precision of modern medicine for optimal outcomes. Additionally, I hold certification in Garbha Sanskar, a specialized Ayurvedic discipline aimed at promoting holistic wellness during pregnancy. I am passionate about supporting maternal health and fetal development through time-tested Ayurvedic practices, dietary guidance, and lifestyle recommendations. My approach to healthcare emphasizes balance, preventive care, and customized wellness plans tailored to each individual’s constitution and health goals. I aim to create a nurturing space where patients feel heard, supported, and empowered in their healing journey. Whether treating seasonal imbalances, supporting women’s health, or guiding patients through Panchakarma therapies, I am committed to delivering care that is rooted in tradition and guided by compassion.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I’m Dr. Hemanshu, a second-year MD scholar specializing in Shalya Tantra (Ayurvedic Surgery), with a focused interest in para-surgical interventions such as Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma. My academic and clinical journey is rooted in classical Ayurvedic surgical wisdom, complemented by a modern understanding of patient care and evidence-based approaches. With hands-on training and experience in managing chronic pain conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, hemorrhoids, fistula, and other ano-rectal conditions, I provide treatments that emphasize both relief and long-term wellness. I am deeply committed to offering individualized treatment plans that align with the patient’s prakriti (constitution), disease progression, and lifestyle factors. I believe healing is not limited to procedures alone; it also requires compassion, communication, and continuity of care. That’s why I ensure each patient receives personalized guidance—from diagnosis and therapy to post-treatment care and preventive strategies. I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.

Dr. Deepali Goswami
I am Dr. Deepali Goswami, BAMS graduate n working mainly around women's health. Right now m running my own clinic where i treat all kind of gyne problems—from irregular periods to PCOD, white discharge, fertility-related issues, menopausal symptoms n lot more that affects everyday life of females. I usually try to keep the language simple while dealing with patients cause honestly half of them come already confused or like really scared of what's happening inside their body... and if I use too much technical terms it just make it worse. I’ve been practicing in this space for couple of years now—don’t remember the exact month, maybe two or three year back? but anyway, what matters is I’ve seen how many of these problems get ignored till they turn serious. That’s something I feel strongly about. My goal is to help women understand their symptoms early and explain how Ayurveda can help gently but properly, whether it’s hormonal stuff or pain or cycle issues. I use classic Ayurvedic concepts like dosha analysis, ritucharya, n yoni vyapad chikitsa wherever it fits, but sometimes modern lifestyle really needs to be factored in too. Like if someone working night shift, no point telling them to wake up at 5am and do abhyanga daily—it won’t work. I’m practical about it. Anyway, I try my best to create a space where women feel heard. Lot of them said nobody actually explained them what’s going on before. And that’s like the saddest part. I feel my biggest strength is really just listening n tailoring the treatment to her routine, diet n stress pattern. Some cases are harder of course... things don’t always go fast, esp when it’s been neglected for yrs. But then Ayurveda’s not magic. It takes a little time—but results feel real n lasting when done right.
