Hello Priyanka,

Thank you for explaining your condition. You are experiencing Acanthosis Nigricans (darkening of skin, especially in folds) for 1.5 years, repeated weight gain, and PCOD. You also notice skin darkening worsens with sunlight.

Likely Nidana:

1.Kapha-Pitta imbalance → leads to medodushti (fat tissue imbalance) and twak dushti (skin darkening). 2.Insulin resistance from PCOD → triggers acanthosis nigricans. 3.Agni (digestive/metabolic fire) weakness → repeated weight gain.

🔍 Recommended Investigations

1. Hormonal profile: LH, FSH, Estradiol, Progesterone, Testosterone, Prolactin, TSH, Insulin, HbA1c. 2. Lipid profile – cholesterol, triglycerides. 3. Fasting blood sugar and postprandial sugar. 4. Liver function test – fatty liver screening. 5. Skin assessment – dermatology consult if required.

💊 Internal Medicine

Phase 1 – Medo-hara & Agni deepana (4 weeks)

1. Triphala churna – 1 g with warm water at night (skin detox, lightens pigmentation). 2. Guggulu Panchapala churna – 1 g with warm water after meals (fat metabolism). 3. Guduchi kwatha – 20 ml with 20ml of warm water twice daily before meals (immunity & insulin support)

Phase 2 – Medo-pravartaka & Artava-sthira (next 4–6 weeks)

1. Chandraprabha vati – 2 tabs twice daily after meals (PCOD, metabolism support). 2. Ashokarishta – 15 ml + equal water twice daily (regulates menstrual cycles). 3. Triphala ghrita – 5 ml at night (skin health, digestion). 4. Kapikacchu churna – 3 g with warm milk once daily (insulin & metabolism support).

🌿 External Support

1.Topical: Aloe vera gel / Licorice-based cream on dark areas (sun-safe, skin-lightening). 2.Avoid prolonged sun exposure; use hats or light clothing to cover skin folds.

🥗 Diet & Lifestyle

Pathya (Recommended):

1. Low-glycemic diet – oats, whole grains, millets. 2. Leafy greens, bitter gourd, cucumber, tomato. 3. Soaked almonds & walnuts (healthy fats). 4. Drink plenty of water – 2–3 L/day. 5. Small, frequent meals to improve metabolism.

Apathya (Avoid):

1. Excess sweets, refined carbs, fried/oily foods. 2. Excess dairy (milk, cheese, cream) if insulin resistant. 3. Excessive sun exposure (worsens skin pigmentation). 4. Late-night eating and irregular sleep.

🧘‍♀️ Yoga & Lifestyle

1. Asanas: Surya Namaskar, Dhanurasana, Ardha Matsyendrasana, Paschimottanasana (boost metabolism, reduce insulin resistance). 2. Pranayama: Anulom Vilom + Kapalabhati (5–10 min daily). 3. Maintain regular sleep cycle (10 pm–6 am). 4. Gentle aerobic exercises / gym – 30–45 min, 4–5 days/week.

🌸 With Kind Regards

With consistent care addressing medo-dushti, insulin resistance, and PCOD, your skin pigmentation, weight, and cycles will gradually normalize. Avoiding excess sun and following the lifestyle recommendations will prevent further darkening.

Hi Priyanka – thank you for sharing your concerns

1. Identify the Root Causes (According to Ayurveda):

PCOD → Kapha and Vata imbalance + hormone disruption Acanthosis Nigricans → Linked to high insulin levels, Kapha dominance Hyperpigmentation → Pitta aggravation (sun sensitivity, skin discoloration) Weight gain → Weak Agni (digestive fire), sluggish metabolism, Kapha accumulation

Internal Medicines:

Triphala Churna – 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime Manjistha Churna or Capsule – 1 tsp powder or 500 mg capsule once or twice daily Chandraprabha Vati – 1 tablet twice daily after meals Ashokarishta or Kumaryasava – 15 ml with equal water after meals, twice daily

External Application: Turmeric + Aloe Vera + Lemon Mask – Apply 3 times a week for 15 minutes.

LIFESTYLE CHANGES (Crucial!)

Avoid sun exposure, especially 10am–4pm. Use umbrella/scarf Walk daily (30–45 mins) – helps reduce insulin resistance Avoid fried food, dairy, white sugar, maida (refined flour) Include fenugreek seeds, cinnamon, flaxseeds in diet Eat light, warm, freshly cooked meals to balance Kapha and Agni.

Thank you !
