Don’t worry. These are common now a days. It happens due to life style.

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

Took these medications for 3 months. If the menstrual cycle didn’t become regular took some panchakarma therapies.

- Do suryanamaskara. - Keep the body always hydrated. - Took sesame seeds, soaked almonds, dates, raisins everyday. - Along with suryanamaskara do regular exercises. - Always walk for atleast 30 minutes a day. - Include pelvic strengthening exercises

Hello Annindita I can understand your concern regarding irrregular menses and weight gain. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊

☑️From your concerns Periods delayed (3–8 months) Acne around vaginal area + darkness of private parts Weight gain (especially belly fat) Age: 22

👉 This strongly suggests hormonal imbalance, often related to PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) or metabolic issues.

✅ AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT

✅INTERNAL MEDICATION

1 Ashokarishta – 15 ml + equal water twice daily after Food (for regular periods) 2 Kanchanar Guggulu – 2-0-2 after food (helps PCOS & cysts) 3 Sukamran kashya 15ml-0-15ml +45 ml. Water after food 4 Triphala powder – 1 tsp at night with warm water (detox & digestion)

✅ DIET MODIFICATION

✅Include Warm, home-cooked food (khichdi, soups, green veggies) Flax seeds, sesame seeds, soaked almonds, pumpkin seeds (help balance hormones) Amla, aloe vera juice, fresh seasonal fruits Whole grains like millet, oats, brown rice

❌Avoid Junk food, bakery, fried, packaged snacks Cold drinks, excess dairy (cheese, curd at night) Excess sugar & refined flour (white bread, biscuits)

✅ DAILY LIFESTYLE

👉Yoga & Exercise At least 30–40 mins daily (Surya Namaskar, Kapalbhati, Baddha Konasana, Malasana, Setu Bandhasana).

👉Sleep Try to sleep by 10–10:30 pm. Late nights worsen hormonal imbalance.

👉Stress Management: Meditation, pranayama, journaling

✅FOR PRIVATE AREA CARE

👉Wash with herbal powders (Triphala decoction) instead of chemical washes.

PREPARATION- take 5 gm of triphala powder in 3 litre of water, boil and reduce to half and use for washinh

👉For darkness → apply aloe vera gel + a pinch of turmeric daily. 👉Wear breathable cotton underwear.

your issues are common and reversible at this age. 👉 With consistency, you’ll start seeing results within 2–3 months.

Wish you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.

Darkening around private parts (natural care)

Apply aloe vera gel or coconut oil + turmeric paste (leave for 10–15 mins before washing).

Lemon + honey mask (only on outer skin, never inside), 2–3 times a week.

Wear loose cotton underwear and avoid tight jeans/leggings to reduce friction.

Yoga & Exercise +

Surya Namaskar (12 rounds daily)

Butterfly pose (Baddha Konasana)

Bhujangasana (Cobra pose)

Setu Bandhasana (Bridge pose) These improve pelvic blood circulation and help regulate periods.

Avoid

Junk food, excess sweets, packaged juices, white bread, fried foods.

Too much coffee/tea increases stress hormones. If you follow these remedies + daily 30 min exercise + healthy diet, you can see changes in periods, weight, and skin within 2–3 months.

Hello Anindita Nandi,

You are 22 and experiencing irregular periods, sometimes delayed by 3 to 8 months, along with acne in the vaginal area, darkening of the skin in private areas, weight gain, and fat accumulation in the belly. This combination of symptoms suggests that your body is experiencing hormonal imbalance, particularly involving insulin resistance, androgen excess, or Pitta-Vata aggravation in Ayurveda. Irregular cycles and weight gain are often linked because hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and insulin influence both metabolism and menstrual regularity. The darkening of skin in intimate areas and acne is a result of excess androgen effect and local inflammation. These changes are reversible with consistent care and supportive treatment, including internal medications, dietary changes, and lifestyle modifications.

Medication :

Chitrakadi Vati – 2 tablets, twice daily after meals for 7 days (helps improve digestion and reduce Ama, which can aggravate hormonal imbalance). Ashokarishta – 2 tsp, twice daily after meals for 15–20 days (supports menstrual regularity and balances hormonal fluctuations). Kanchanar Guggulu – 2 tablets, twice daily after meals for 30 days (helps reduce fat accumulation and supports thyroid and metabolism). Nirgundi or Lodhra Ghan Vati – 2 tablets, twice daily after meals for acne and skin issues.

Diet & Lifestyle Suggestions:

Prefer light, warm, and freshly cooked foods; avoid excessive fried, oily, and sugary items. Include high-fiber foods – whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. Drink plenty of water to support metabolism and skin health. Engage in regular physical activity – yoga, walking, or mild cardio for 30–45 mins daily. Avoid stress, as it can worsen hormonal imbalance and menstrual irregularity. For darkened skin, avoid friction and tight clothing; use mild natural cleansers.

Investigations to consider:

Hormonal profile: TSH, Prolactin, FSH, LH, Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone, Insulin Ultrasound pelvis to check ovaries for cysts or structural issues. Blood sugar and lipid profile to check metabolism and insulin resistance.

Before starting treatment, ask about: Bowel movements – regularity, constipation, or diarrhea? Urination – frequency or discomfort? Appetite – normal or altered? Sleep – adequate or disturbed?

With consistent treatment, proper diet, and lifestyle changes, your periods can become regular, weight can reduce gradually, and skin and acne issues can improve. The key is patience and following the plan consistently.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

Dr. Sumi. S
I am a dedicated Ayurvedic physician with specialized expertise in Shalakya Tantra, focusing on the diagnosis and management of disorders affecting the Netra (eyes), Karna (ears), Nasa (nose), Mukha (oral cavity), Danta (teeth), and Shira (head and ENT region). My training and clinical experience have equipped me to treat a wide range of conditions such as Netra Abhishyanda (conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early and advanced cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Karna Nada (tinnitus), Pratishyaya (chronic rhinitis and sinusitis), Mukhapaka (oral ulcers), Dantaharsha (dental sensitivity), and Shirashoola (headache and migraine). I routinely incorporate classical Ayurvedic therapeutic techniques like Kriya Kalpas, Nasya, Tarpana, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, Gandusha, Pratisarana, and Dhoomapana, along with internal Rasayana and Shamana therapies, ensuring treatments are both effective and tailored to each patient’s prakriti and condition. Beyond my specialization, I bring over two years of clinical experience managing multi-systemic disorders. My approach blends classical Ayurvedic principles with a sound understanding of modern diagnostics and pathology, allowing me to handle cases related to metabolic disorders (such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, and PCOS), musculoskeletal issues (like arthritis and back pain), gastrointestinal disorders, skin conditions, and women’s health concerns, including infertility and hormonal imbalance. I believe in evidence-informed practice, patient education, and holistic healing. My focus is always on delivering compassionate care that empowers patients to actively participate in their health journey. Through continuous learning and clinical research, I remain committed to upholding the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda in a way that aligns with today’s healthcare needs.

Hello Anindita, Thank you for sharing your condition. As you are facing Irregular periods (delay 3–8 months) – cycles not regularized. Acne on vaginal area + skin darkening (private parts, inner thighs). Weight gain & belly fat – stubborn, not reducing easily.

👉 Likely Cause:

🔍 Recommended Investigations

1. CBC, Hb% – to rule out anemia. 2. Thyroid profile (TSH, T3, T4). 3. Serum Vitamin D, B12, Ferritin. 4. Hormone profile – LH, FSH, Prolactin, Testosterone, AMH. 5. Pelvic Ultrasound – to rule out PCOS. 6. Blood sugar, Lipid profile – to check for insulin resistance / metabolic syndrome.

🌿 External Care

For Private Part Skin Darkening & Acne:

1. Apply Aloe vera gel + turmeric pinch daily (wash after 20 min). 2. Lodhra + Manjistha + Rose water paste – apply locally once or twice weekly. 3. Wear loose cotton clothes, keep area dry, avoid chemical-based washes.

🥗 Diet & Lifestyle

Pathya (Recommended):

1. Fresh green veg (lauki, pumpkin, spinach). 2. Fruits: papaya, apple, pomegranate. 3. Flax seeds (1 tsp daily), soaked almonds (5 daily). 4. Jeera–ajwain–saunf water after meals. 5. Cow’s ghee (½ tsp daily). 6. Lukewarm water throughout the day.

Apathya (Avoid):

🧘‍♀️ Yoga & Lifestyle

1. Pranayama: Kapalabhati (5 min), Anulom Vilom (10 min daily). 2. Asanas: Malasana, Setubandhasana, Bhujangasana, Surya Namaskar (5–7 rounds). 3. Brisk walking / light jogging – 30 min daily. 4. Sleep before 11 pm. 5. Maintain consistent meal timings.

Dr. Chaitrali Rajendra Tambe
I am someone who really believes that Ayurveda isn’t just about giving herbs and oils—it's more like a whole way of looking at the body, the habits, the food, and how everything connects together. I got solid training in Ayurvedic clinical practice and feel most confident when I'm using therapies like Panchakarma or planning proper Shodhana for someone who's stuck in a cycle of chronic illness or stress-related issues. There’s just something powerful about seeing how classical cleansing can bring that shift in energy and clarity for ppl who've tried everything else. I work a lot on dosha assessment—sometimes it takes a bit of digging cause symptoms don’t always line up in a textbook way. But once I figure out what’s really going off-balance, I try to make treatment super personalized. It’s not just about giving a kashayam or lepa... I spend time explaining diet changes, routines, sleep timing, and even emotional triggers when needed. Many people don’t realise how big a role lifestyle play in their conditions. Right now, I’m mostly focused on lifestyle disorders and detox-based therapies. Things like PCOS, fatty liver, skin allergies, joint stiffness, IBS, anxiety-linked issues… those come up a lot. I try not to rush. I’d rather go slow n consistent, combining classical concepts with modern diagnostics if needed. Blood tests, reports, scans—they help me track things while still keeping the treatment Ayurvedic in core. I’m also pretty organized about documenting my cases—not just for reference but to understand patterns better. I guess every case teaches you something new, even after hundreds of patients. And I do keep learning, whether it’s updating protocols or trying to refine a virechana schedule that didn’t go as planned. In the end, for me it’s really about finding that balance for each person... not just patching the symptom. I think that’s where Ayurveda really shines.

This is a lifestyle-metabolic disorder, so treatment is a mix of ahara (diet), vihara (lifestyle), aushadhi (medicine), and shodhana (detox if needed).

1. Ayurvedic Remedies

• Ashokarishta – 20 ml with equal water after meals, twice daily. • Shatavari powder – 1 tsp with warm milk at night. • Kanchanar Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after meals. • Triphala powder – 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water for detox, weight management, and clear skin.

For Acne/Darkness of Private Parts:- • Wash with Triphala decoction or neem water daily (instead of chemical washes). • Apply Aloe vera gel + turmeric paste externally 3–4 times/week.

2. Diet Recommendations

✅ Include • Warm, freshly cooked food. • Green leafy vegetables, gourds, pumpkin, drumstick. • Moong dal, khichdi with ghee. • Fruits: papaya, pomegranate, guava, soaked raisins. • Spices for metabolism: ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, cumin. • Seeds: flaxseeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame.

❌ Avoid • Junk food, fried, refined sugar, bakery, fast food. • Cold drinks, packaged juices. • Excess dairy (cheese, paneer, curd at night). • Sitting idle after meals.

•	Exercise minimum 30–40 min daily (yoga + brisk walk).

Your condition is most likely PCOS/PCOD → please get an ultrasound + hormone tests (LH, FSH, TSH, Prolactin, Insulin, Testosterone) done to confirm.

• Sleep early (before 11 PM), avoid late-night screen time.

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.

HELLO ANINDITA,

Polycystic ovarian disease is a hormonal imbalance where ovaries produce more male hormones than normal. because of this -eggs do not mature properly leading to missed/delayed periods -small cysts form in ovaries -hormonal imbalance causes irregular periods, acne, hair loss, dark skin patches, weight gain (especially belly fat)

The symptoms you describe may be related to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), which is a condition that can affect menstrual cycles, weight, skin, and hair. Ayurveda approaches this with a focus on balancing the doshas, particularly kapha and vata, which are often imbalanced in such conditions.

For regularising your menstrual cycle, begin by incorporating fresh seasonal fruits and vegetables in your diet to reduce kapha and improve digestion. Consumption of whole grains, legumes, and protein-rich foods like beans and lentils can also help. Limit the intake of sugar, refined carbohydrates, and dairy products as they can exacerbate kapha imbalance.

Incorporating specific Ayurvedic herbs can be beneficial. Shatavari is known to support the reproductive system, while Ashwagandha can help balance hormones and regulate menstrual cycles. These can be taken in powdered form, mixed with warm water or milk, or as per recommended by an Ayurvedic practitioner.

Physical activity play a critical role in managing weight and hormonal balance. Engage in a daily routine of moderate exercises, such as brisk walking, yoga or swimming. Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutations) practiced regularly helps in regulating hormones and reducing stress, which might be contributing to your condition.

To address skin issues like acne and darkening, maintaining proper personal hygiene is essential. Use natural, gentle cleansers and consider applying herbal pastes made with turmeric and sandalwood to affected areas. These can have a soothing effect on skin.

Also, it is important to manage stress levels through relaxation techniques. Incorporating meditation and breathing exercises into your daily routine can aid in balancing your body’s systems.

Consistency is key in Ayurveda, but improvements may take some time. If symptoms persist or worsen, consider reaching out a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner or a healthcare professional for more personalized guidance. They can provide further insights on your prakriti (constitution) and vikriti (current state of imbalance) for a more tailored approach.

Dr. Rajan soni
I am working in Ayurveda field from some time now, started out as a general physician at Chauhan Ayurveda Hospital in Noida. That place taught me a lot—how to handle different types of patients in OPD, those daily cases like fever, digestion issues, body pain... but also chronic stuff which keeps coming back. After that I moved to Instant Aushadhalya—an online Ayurveda hospital setup. Whole different space. Consultations online ain’t easy at first—no pulse reading, no direct Nadi check—but you learn to ask the right things, look at patient’s tone, habit patterns, timing of symptoms... and yeah it actually works, sometimes even better than in person. Right now I’m working as an Ayurveda consultant at Digvijayam Clinic where I’m focusing more on individualised care. Most ppl come here with stress-related problems, digestion issues, joint pain, that kind of mix. I go by classic diagnosis principles like prakriti analysis, dosha imbalance and all, but also mix in what I learned from modern side—like understanding their lifestyle triggers, screen time, sleep cycles, food gaps n stress patterns. I don’t rush into panchakarma or heavy medicines unless it’s needed... prefer starting with simple herbs, diet change, basic daily routine correction. If things demand, then I go stepwise into Shodhan therapies. My goal is to not just “treat” but to help ppl know what’s happening in their body and why its reacting like that. That awareness kinda becomes half the cure already. Not everything is perfect. Sometimes ppl don’t follow what you say, sometimes results are slow, and yeah that gets to you. But this path feels honest. It’s slow, grounded, and meaningful.

Irregular periods, acne, and weight gain are common symptoms associated with polycystic ovarian syndrome - or PCOS, most likely caused by hormonal imbalances and insulin resistance. In Siddha-Ayurvedic terms, this could be a result of a kapha and vata imbalance, impacting digestion, metabolism, and overall health. Let’s tackle these issues with specific, actionable steps.

First, consider dietary changes. Focus on a kapha-soothing diet: Fresh, warm, and light foods are beneficial. Reduce intake of heavy, oily, and cold foods, as those can exacerbate kapha-related symptoms. Favor whole grains, plenty of vegetables, and lean proteins. Spices like turmeric, cumin, ginger, and coriander can aid digestion and support metabolic fire (agni).

Regulating your physical activity is equally important. Aim for daily movement, even simple brisk walking for 30-45 minutes. Yoga and pranayama, particularly practices that promote balance and relaxation, can reduce stress — a factor in hormonal imbalances.

Herbal support can be effective. Shatavari and Ashwagandha are known to aid in hormonal regulation. Triphala may help with digestion and detoxification. Always consult with a local practitioner before starting any herbal regimen, especially if you take medications or have other health conditions.

For skin concerns, consider topical applications like sandalwood paste or turmeric, diluted with milk or aloe, for acne and darkened areas. Mild natural exfoliation can help too.

It’s critical to monitor these symptoms closely. If you experience severe pain or if any condition worsens, seeking medical attention is essential. A healthcare professional can provide diagnostic insights and necessary interventions. Prioritize these steps, and allow time for the practice to bring results.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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.

Dr. Khushboo
I am someone who kinda started out in both worlds—Ayurveda and allopathy—and that mix really shaped how I see health today. My clinical journey began with 6 months of hands-on allopathic exposure at District Hospital Sitapur. Honestly, that place was intense. Fast-paced, high patient flow, constant cases of chronic and acute illnesses coming through. That taught me a lot about how to see disease. Not just treat it, but like… notice the patterns, get better at real-time diagnosis, really listen to what the patient isn’t saying out loud sometimes. It gave me this sharper sense of clinical grounding which I think still stays with me. Then I moved more deeply into Ayurveda and spent another 6 months diving into clinical training focused on Panchakarma therapies. Stuff like Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara—learned those not just as a list of techniques, but how and when to use 'em, especially for detox and deep healing. Every case felt like a different puzzle. There wasn’t always one right answer, you know? And that’s where I found I loved adapting protocols based on what the person actually needed, not just what the textbook says. Alongside that, I got certified in Garbha Sanskar through structured training. That really pulled me closer to maternal health. Pregnancy support through Ayurveda isn’t just about herbs or massage, it’s like this entire way of guiding a mother-to-be toward nourishing the baby right from conception—emotionally, physically, all of it. That part stuck with me hard. My overall approach? It’s kinda fluid. I believe in balancing natural therapies and evidence-based thinking. Whether it's seasonal imbalance, hormonal issues, Panchakarma detox plans, or just guiding someone on long-term wellness—I like making people feel safe, heard, and actually understood. I’m not into rushing plans or masking symptoms. I’d rather work together with someone to build something sustainable that really suits their body and where they’re at. In a way, I’m still learning every day. But my focus stays the same—use Ayurvedic wisdom practically, compassionately, and in a way that just... makes sense in real life.

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. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

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. K Bhagyalaxmi
I am an Ayurvedic doctor with 5 yrs of steady practice in the field—not a lifetime, but long enough to see how people respond when you really pay attention, not just to symptoms but to the whole story behind them. I started out thinking I’ll just treat the doshas, pick the right herbs, and things will work. But real patients kinda show you that it’s more layered. Now I mostly focus on connecting classical Ayurveda with actual day-to-day health struggles people bring in—digestive chaos, sleep going off track, periods all over the place, hair falling out for months, or just plain burnout. Over time I’ve worked a lot with people dealing with long-standing issues—like IBS, acne, weight gain that doesn’t budge, PCOS, stress spikes, thyroid shifts, low energy, even those vague feelings of “not feeling like myself.” I don’t rush into meds. I spend a good amount of time understanding lifestyle, eating patterns, stress points. A lot of my plans involve routine resets, easy-to-follow diet tweaks, herbal support if needed, and just—staying in touch. Most people don’t need complicated therapies, they need clarity. And someone who doesn’t make them feel like a list of symptoms. I’m usually direct but never pushy. I keep my advice realistic, cause no one's going to steam daily or wake at 4 am forever. Even basic things like fixing digestion or improving sleep hygiene makes a huge diff, if done right. Also I like writing or talking about healing in a way that doesn’t scare ppl off with too much jargon or pressure. 5 years in, I’m still learning. Still adjusting. Ayurveda is deep, and the body doesn’t always respond how you expect—but that's kinda the magic too. Every patient brings a different challenge, and I try to meet them where they are, not where textbooks say they *should* be.

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.
