Removing gall bladder, makes digestion slow, Menstruation problem due to hormonal imbalance.
But why this problem occur.
To address your concerns, we’ll explore how Ayurveda might help manage your symptoms. Given you’re experiencing menstrual irregularities and have had your gallbladder removed, it’s important to balance your doshas, particularly focusing on regulating Vata, which often disrupts menstruation cycles and digestion.
First, consider your diet. Incorporate Vata-pacifying foods rich in healthy fats like avocados and ghee, which can support hormone balance. Avoid cold and dry foods; favor warm, moist, and cooked meals that are easy to digest. Veggies like cooked carrots and beets can be beneficial, promoting regular cycle. Hydrate with warm water or herbal teas, such as ginger or fennel, supporting optimal digestion and calming vata dosha.
Given your low hemoglobin (Hb 10) and vitamin D3 levels (18), Ayurveda suggests foods rich in iron, like beetroot, pomegranates, and sesame seeds. Expose your skin to sunlight for about 15-20 minutes daily to boosts vitamin D3 naturally, aiding your overall well-being.
With your removed gallbladder, digestion can be a challenge. Support Agni (digestive fire) by eating smaller meals more frequently and consuming foods like ginger and black pepper. If possible, a daily teaspoon of Triphala powder in warm water before bedtime might assist regular bowel motions and detoxification, supporting liver function after gallbladder removal.
For menstrual concerns, consider including jaggery and fennel seeds, known in Ayurveda to regulate cycles. Regular exercise, like gentle yoga or walking, helps balance hormones and reduce stress, also benefiting menstrual regularity.
Always consult with a healthcare professional before implementing these changes, especially considering your recent surgery and nutrient deficiencies. Address any immediate or severe symptoms with professional medical attention without delay.
Your situation involves a few interrelated issues. Firstly, your hemoglobin level (Hb 10) indicates mild anemia, while your Vitamin D3 level is quite low, which could contribute to various health problems, including menstrual irregularities. The removal of your gallbladder in 2023 may also affect digestion and hormone metabolism, impacting your menstrual cycle.
For addressing inflammation in the stomach, it’s crucial to look at digestive health closely. Since your gallbladder has been removed, bile metabolism changes, and this might lead to digestive discomfort. In the Siddha-Ayurvedic approach, we focus on balancing the digestive fire (agni) and reducing excess Pitta, which often contributes to inflammation and irregular menstruation.
One suitable remedy could be to incorporate cooling and soothing herbs like licorice (mulethi). You might prepare a decoction by boiling 1 teaspoon of licorice root in water and consume it daily, preferably after meals. Another beneficial practice is consuming aloe vera juice, about 2 tablespoons mixed with water, before meals. These measures can help pacify Pitta and soothe digestive discomfort.
Additionally, consider increasing your iron and Vitamin D intake, which is linked to the overall menstrual health. Get your daily dose of Vitamin D through sun exposure in the early morning or supplements if necessary. Iron-rich foods like leafy greens, lentils, and jaggery can help improve your hemoglobin levels.
It’s also important to maintain regular eating habits with balanced meals. Avoid spicy, oily, and highly processed foods that may exacerbate Pitta and digestive issues. Foster practices like yoga and meditation to balance hormones and manage stress, which can contribute to the menstrual irregularities you’re experiencing. However, given the complexities here, please consult a healthcare provider for an integrated approach, especially to address anemia and low Vitamin D levels.
