I have lot of hormonal imbalance and pcos - #31477
I am 32 years old, married, having two kids. Since the age of 14-15 i am having pcos. Before marriage my periods never used to come on time and always came only if i took medicines. But after kids period got regularised. But suddenly since 2-3 months again it's irregular. So I checked hormonal profile. I found that Estradiol and SHBG are very low and also have bilateral pcos in abdomen scan. I want to consult doctor for it as i have irregular periods, pigmentation on body, also hair fall and lot of hair growth on body. I am also unable to lose weight despite of doing exercise and yoga. So please help me to find a best solution to come out of this problem as I am suffering since childhood.

When dealing with PCOS and hormone imbalances, addressing the root cause through Ayurvedic principles may provide sustainable benefits for your condition. Your constitution or prakriti may tend towards a Kapha or Kaph-Pitta imbalance, where excess Kapha can lead to stagnation and toxic buildup in the body. Let’s try to customize a plan for you:
1. Dietary Adjustments: Core to managing PCOS is keeping diet simple and sattvic. Favor a diet rich in whole, unprocessed foods. Consume more fresh fruits, green leafy vegetables, and whole grains like barley and millet, which are light and easy to digest. Avoid processed sugars, dairy, and fried foods as they can aggravate Kapha.
2. Spices and Herbs: Integrating spices like turmeric and cinnamon can help balance blood sugar levels. Drinking a glass of warm water with turmeric and a little ginger every morning may help detoxify the system. Herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari might help in balancing hormones, but consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner to confirm this suits you.
3. Lifestyle & Exercise: Continue with regular exercise, perhaps adding activities that stimulate metabolism, like brisk walking or swimming. Yoga poses like Surya Namaskar and Kapalbhati pranayama can activate digestive fire, helping with weight management.
4. Daily Routine (Dinacharya): Establishing a regular daily schedule for eating, sleeping, and activity might help with overall balance. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep, aiding the body’s detoxification process.
5. Stress Management: Stress disrupts hormonal balance. Incorporating meditation or mindfulness into your daily routine can significantly lower cortisol levels, enhancing hormonal harmony.
While Ayurveda offers supportive measures, it is important to continue consulting with your healthcare provider regarding any continuing or worsening symptoms, especially concerning your hormonal levels! Tailoring these suggestions to fit your specific condition and genetic makeup would ideally be done with the guidance of a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Addressing PCOS and hormonal imbalances requires a multi-pronged approach in Siddha-Ayurvedic medicine, focusing on balancing your doshas, supporting proper digestion, and ensuring adequate nourishment for your dhatus (tissues). Your symptoms hint towards imbalances primarily in your Kapha and Pitta doshas. Here are some recommendations to consider:
1. Dietary Adjustments: Opt for a diet that pacifies Kapha. Incorporate more fresh fruits and vegetables into your meals while avoiding fatty, fried, and sugary foods. These can aggravate Kapha and lead to weight gain and further hormonal imbalance. Favor warming spices like ginger, cinnamon, and turmeric, which can stimulate digestion and balance hormones. Eating light evening meals can also be beneficial.
2. Herbal Support: Certain herbs might aid in balancing hormones and improving symptoms. Ashwagandha can be useful to alleviate stress and energy levels while Shatavari may help regulate the menstrual cycle. Consult an Ayurvedic practitioner to find the proper dosage and form for you, as individualized approach is essential.
3. Lifestyle Adjustments: Regular physical activity is crucial but focus on more Kapha-reducing exercises like brisk walks, jogging, or cycling. Practice Pranayama and meditation daily to reduce stress, which can further exacerbate hormonal imbalances.
4. Detoxification: Panchakarma, a series of therapeutic procedures aimed at cleansing and rejuvenating the body, might assist in rebalancing your systems but should only be done under guidance of a qualified Siddha-Ayurvedic practitioner.
5. Regular Sleep: Ensure restful sleep to balance body energies. Establish regular sleep patterns and create a calm environment to improve rest quality.
6. Seek Siddha-Ayurvedic Consultation: To tailor these advices precisely to your health profile, certaintly visiting a practitioner for individualized assessment would be ideal. They might suggest further examination or specific treatments like Abhyanga or Nasya, considering your current health and lifestyle.
Reevaluating these aspects holistically in sea of your life with Siddha-Ayurveda’s personalized approach can potentially help address the root cause of your symptoms and better manage PCOS. Be cautious with any severe symptoms and consult conventional medical professionals for immediate concerns.
