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.

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.

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.

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. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

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.

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. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

Dr. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

Dr. Haresh Vavadiya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor currently practicing at Ayushakti Ayurveda—which honestly feels more like a learning ecosystem than just a clinic. Being here has changed the way I look at chronic conditions. You don’t just treat the label—you go after the cause, layer by layer, and that takes patience, structure, and real connection with the person sitting in front of you. Ayushakti has been around 33+ years, with global reach and seriously refined clinical systems. That means I get to work with protocols that are both deeply rooted in traditional Ayurveda and also super practical for today’s world. Whether I’m managing arthritis, asthma, skin issues like eczema or psoriasis, hormone trouble, gut problems, or stress overload—my first step is always a deep analysis. Prakriti, doshas, ahar-vihar, past treatments—everything gets mapped out. Once I’ve got that picture clear, I create a plan using herbal medicines, detox programs (especially Panchakarma), Marma therapy if needed, and definitely food and routine corrections. But nothing’s random. Each piece is chosen for *that* person. And I don’t just prescribe—I explain. Because when someone knows *why* they’re doing a certain thing, they stick with it longer, and the results hold. One thing I’ve learned while working here is how powerful Ayurved can be when it's structured right. At Ayushakti, that structure exists. It helps me treat confidently and track results properly. Whether I’m working with a first-time visitor or a patient who’s been dealing with the same thing for 10 years, my goal stays the same—help their system return to a natural, sustainable state of balance. What I really enjoy is seeing how people’s mindset changes once they start to feel better. When they stop depending on just temporary relief and start building their health from within—that’s when the real shift happens. And being part of that shift? That’s why I do this.

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. Sumi. S
I am an Ayurvedic doc trained mainly in Shalakya Tantra—basically, I work a lot with issues of the eyes, ears, nose, oral cavity, head... all that ENT zone. It’s a really specific branch of Ayurveda, and I’ve kind of grown to appreciate how much it covers. I deal with all kinds of conditions like Netra Abhishyanda (kinda like conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early or full-on cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma stuff), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Pratishyaya (chronic colds n sinus), Mukhapaka (mouth ulcers), and even dental stuff like Dantaharsha (teeth sensitivity) or Shirashool (headaches & migraines). I use a mix of classic therapies—Tarpana, Nasya, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, even Gandusha and Dhoomapana when it fits. Depends on prakriti, the season, and where the person’s really struggling. Rasayana therapy and internal meds are there too of course but I don’t just throw them in blindly... every plan’s got to make sense to that individual. It’s kind of like detective work half the time. But honestly, my clinical work hasn't been just about Shalakya. I’ve got around two yrs of broader OPD experience where I’ve also handled chronic stuff like diabetes, thyroid issues, arthritis flares, PCOS, IBS-type gut problems, and some hormonal imbalances in women too. I kind of like digging into the layers of a case where stress is playing a role. Or when modern bloodwork says one thing, but the symptoms are telling me something else entirely. I use pathology insights but don’t let reports override what the patient's body is clearly saying. That balance—between classical Ayurvedic drishtis and modern diagnostic tools—is what I’m always aiming for. I also try to explain things to patients in a way they’ll get it. Because unless they’re on board and actually involved, no healing really works long-term, right? It’s not all picture-perfect. Sometimes I still re-read my Samhitas when I'm stuck or double check new case patterns. And sometimes my notes are a mess :) But I do try to keep learning and adapting while still keeping the core of Ayurveda intact.

Dr. Farzana Roshan
I am an Ayurvedic doctor with 5 years hands-on expereince trying to understand the person behind the disease, not just the symptoms on paper. I mostly believe that healing isn’t just about giving the "right" medicine – it’s about going deeper, finding the root cause, and working with the body, not against it. That’s what Ayurveda means to me—real, root-level work. I deal with all kinds of chronic stuff... like joint pain, arthritis, even the really nagging ones like lumbar disc problems and sciatica, where people have tried everything but still struggle with daily pain. I use a combination of classical formulations, local therapies like kati basti or lepam, plus guided diet & movement plans to help improve mobility and reduce stiffness. It’s not magic, but when people start getting their sleep back and can bend without wincing, that’s when you know it’s working. Stress, anxiety, insomnia—those are another huge part of what I treat. And honestly, they connect to everything else—thyroid imbalances, PCOS, weight gain, even diabetes. I’ve worked with women going through irregular cycles, PCOS struggles, even some who've had difficulty conceiving. In those cases, I focus a lot on dinacharya, herbs that regulate hormones naturally, and correcting lifestyle patterns that disrupt sleep or metabolism. Diabetes and obesity? That’s a long game. I usually help patients understand not just what to eat, but when and how. Tiny shifts in food timings and digestion make a big difference in blood sugar control. I don’t follow a one-size approach—some people respond fast, others need time... and I stick with them through that. I also see many kidney and gallstone cases—painful and frustrating, yes, but manageable through Ayurvedic herbs and flushing therapies, when applied carefully. Skin disorders, too—eczema, acne, even the stubborn fungal infections—these often come from deeper imbalances in pitta or rakta dhatu. Once we clean that internally, changes start to show outside. Ayurveda’s strength is in tailoring. That’s how I work—listen, observe, plan. Each person, each plan. Healing that actually fits you.

Dr. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.
