Experiencing continuous bleeding even after a Mirena IUD can be concerning. From a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, it suggests an underlying imbalance in doshas, likely involving an aggravated pitta affecting vata, leading to disturbances in the rakta dhatu (blood tissue). Here’s how you could approach this situation holistically:
1. Dosha Management: Focus on pacifying pitta dosha to stabilize vata. This could be facilitated through dietary modifications — incorporate cooling, pitta-pacifying foods such as aloe vera juice and pomegranate. Minimize spicy, sour, and excessively hot foods. Also, keep caffeine and alcohol intake low as they can aggravate symptoms.
2. Herbal Support: Ashoka (Saraca indica) is a renowned herb for managing excessive bleeding and supporting uterine health. Consume Ashoka bark decoction as guided by an Ayurvedic practitioner, typically before or after meals to combat these symptoms.
3. Routine Adjustment: Practice a routine that encourages balance for vata and pitta, involving adequate rest. Opt for calming activities like yoga and pranayama. They stabilize energy flow and calm nervous disruptions, which can aid in managing symptoms.
4. Rasayanas and Bhasmas: For reinforcing dhatus and revitalizing metabolism, discuss with practitioners about suitable rasayanas (tonics) and bhasmas (herbal-mineral preparations) for your condition. Primarily those that work on blood purification and stabilize circulation.
5. Medical Advice: It’s crucial to consult a healthcare provider, especially if the bleeding is severe, to rule out urgent medical conditions. Ayurveda can support but not replace interventions from your healthcare provider when necessary — these conditions can lead to significant health repercussions if untreated.
Turn these steps into part of your daily regimen with appropriate guidance and adjustments. Regular follow-ups with an Ayurvedic practitioner to monitor changes and avoid possible complications is advisable.
