I am a dedicated Ayurvedic practitioner with a diverse foundation in both modern and traditional systems of medicine. My journey began with six months of hands-on experience in allopathic medicine at District Hospital Sitapur, where I was exposed to acute and chronic care in a high-volume clinical setting. This experience strengthened my diagnostic skills and deepened my understanding of patient care in an allopathic framework. 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. I am passionate about supporting maternal health and fetal development through time-tested Ayurvedic practices, dietary guidance, and lifestyle recommendations. My approach to healthcare emphasizes balance, preventive care, and customized wellness plans tailored to each individual’s constitution and health goals. I aim to create a nurturing space where patients feel heard, supported, and empowered in their healing journey. Whether treating seasonal imbalances, supporting women’s health, or guiding patients through Panchakarma therapies, I am committed to delivering care that is rooted in tradition and guided by compassion.

HELLO JANVI,

This means -Your uterus is shedding less lining (endometrium) than before -this often happens when hormonal balance shifts- especially estrogen and progesterone levels

From an Ayurvedic point of view, this is Artava kshaya (reduced menstrual flow) and mild Ritu vyapad (cycle disturbance)

MAIN IMBALANCE -Vata (irregular timing, pain without proper flow) -Pitta (heat, early ovulation symptoms) -Rakta dhatu kshaya(less blood tissue nourishment)

TREATMENT GOALS -balance vata and pitta so your cycle comes on time and without pain -nourish rakta dhatu so the uterine lining builds up properly-> healthy flow -strengthen the uterus and ovaries for better ovulation and hormone rhythm -relieve pain naturally without harming hormones -prevent long-term issues like infertility, PCOS, or endometrial weakness

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) SHATAVARI GRANULES= 1 tsp with warm milk in morning and night for 3 months =improves fertility, nourishes female reproductive tissues, balances pitta and vata

2) ASHOKARISHTA= 20 ml with equal water after meals for 3 months =strenghtens uterus, regulates cycles, reduces pain

3) LODHRA CHURNA= 3 gm with honey in morning for 3 months =balances pitta, improves endometrial health

4) DASHMOOLA KASHAYA= 40 ml with water twice daily before meals for 3 months =relieves pelvic pain, balances vata

5) PHAL GHRITA = 1 tsp in warm milk morning for 3 months =nourishes uterus, supports ovulation

EXTERNAL TREATMENT

1) OIL MASSAGE= warm sesame oil massage over whole body =balances vata, improves circulation to uterus

LIFESTYLE CHANGE

SLEEP= 10 pm to 6 am, avoid late nights (vata-pitta calming)

STRESS= avoid overthinking, mental strain, and emotional overload

EXERCISE= gentle yoga, no over exercising during periods

HYDRATION= warm water or herbal teas (ginger, fennel). Avoid iced drinks

AVOID= skipping meals, excessive fasting, very spicy/fried/junk food, and too much coffee/tea

YOGA ASANA -baddha konasana= opens pelvis, improves blood flow -supta baddha konasana= relaxes uterus -setu bandhasana= tones pelvic organs -viparita karani= improves circulationn, calms mind

PRANAYAM -nadi sodhana= balances hormones -bhramari= relieve stress, calms pitta -sheetali= balances heat

DIET -warm milk with ghee + a pinch of turmeric -black sesame seeds + jaggery (rich in iron and calcium) -dates, pomegranates, figs= blood nourishing -moong dal khichdi with ghee easy to digest, nourishing -fresh vegetables, especially beets and carrots improves blood

AVOID -very spicy, sour, fermented foods - pitta aggravation -cold,raw, stale foods- vata aggravation -excess coffee, cola, alcohol- hormone disruptors

HOME REMEDIES -Sesame seed + jaggery laddoo= 1 daily in winter, improves menstrual flow -Fenugreek seed tea= soothes cramps, improves digestion -Warm castor oil pack on lower abdomen before periods- relieve pain, increases blood flow

INVESTIGATION ADVISED -thyroid profile -serum prolactin-again after 3 months -day 2- 3 FSH, LH, Estradiol - serum progesterone (day 21 if 28 days cycle ) -pelvic ultrasound- check ovaries, endometrial thickness -cbc, ferritin- check for anemia

Your condition is not dangerous right now, but its a signal your body’s hormonal rhythm is slightly off

-If we address it now with Ayurvedic nourishment. + lifestyle discipline, your cycles can return to healthy flow in few months -If ignored for long, it can progress into irregular ovulation, infertility, or endometrial weakness -Be patient= the uterus and hormones need at least 3-6 cycles to fully reset

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

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.

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.

Hlo janvi, Just relax and be stress free, bcz being in stress will increase your problem you will be get ok soon.

Hyperprolactinemia is one of the gynaecological condition which has ill effects on women health. Prolactin interacts with hormone such as oestrogen and progesterone,which are crucial for menstrual cycle. High prolactin level can suppress the production of fSH and LH which are necessary for ovulation and disruption to ovulation can lead to irregular periods,lighter periods or complete absence of periods.

First of all want to know have u any other medical history of hypothyroidism,any oral medicine intake, any stress any sleep issues or lifestyle disturbances factors.

According to Ayurveda there can be two reasons -1) rasashya. 2) kafa avran on rasaWe will plan completed course treatment for atleast 2 months

1) Ashokarisht (10 ml)+ kumaryasav(10 ml) BD with equal amount of water after food 2)M2 tone syrup 10 ml TDS with equal amount of after after food 2) chanderprabha vati 1 tab BD after food 3) raj pravartini vati 1 tab BD after food 4) Tab EBH 1 TAB HS 5) morning tea- ginger small amount+ cinemon stick small piece + 2-3 black pepper+pinch of turmeric+ beyleaf+ gur= boil in 1 glass of water until 1/4th = drink in morning empty stomach daily

FOLLOWED with panchakarma (shodhan) treatment. 1) nasya and shirodhara with Luke warm dhanvantari tailam/ shatpushpa tailam for 7 days 2) anuvasan basti with sahcharaaditaila 7 days before periods.

Follow this for atleast 3 cycles

You will see result in first menses and within 3 months prolactin will gets to nrml also.

– kindly let me know if their is any pelvic USG, MRI, prolactin level , body weight, or body structure

Experiencing light periods that last only for approximately one and a half day can indeed be a sign of a hormonal imbalance, particularly given your history of high prolactin levels. In Ayurveda, we often associate such menstrual irregularities with an imbalance in the doshas, especially Vata and Pitta, and sometimes influenced by Kapha in the case of high prolactin.

First, it’s important to support your overall hormonal balance. Ashwagandha and Shatavari, two prominent Ayurvedic herbs, may help in stabilizing and harmonizing your endocrine system. Shatavari is particularly known for supporting female reproductive health and nourishing the tissues (dhatus). You might consider taking 1-2 capsules of Ashwagandha and Shatavari daily with warm water or milk, preferably in the evening to help reduce stress, which can elevate prolactin.

Diet plays a crucial role too — focus on eating warm, cooked meals emphasizing whole grains, fresh fruits, and vegetables like carrots and beets that help in maintaining hormonal equilibrium. Avoid cold, dry, or processed foods as they may disturb Vata and aggravate your condition.

Include a teaspoon of flaxseed or sesame seeds in your diet, they are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and can effectively help in balancing hormones. Stress can exacerbate hormonal issues, hence practicing daily yoga and mindfulness could be beneficial. Mindful breathing exercises can be particularly effective in calming the mind and supporting consistent hormone levels.

The timeframe for seeing improvements can vary, often it may take several months to notice significant changes. This greatly depends on individual constitution and adherence to the regimen. Consulting with a specialist in Ayurvedic medicine regularly would be invaluable in making necessary adjustments to your treatment.

Remember, while Ayurveda provides effective support, it’s crucial to continue consulting with your healthcare provider. Regular monitoring of prolactin levels and discussing any medication or therapy changes with them can provide a safe pathway towards recovery.

Light menstruation, especially with a history of high prolactin levels and persistent hormonal imbalance, can be related to a disturbance in your body’s natural balance, often involving an imbalance in the doshas, especially vata and pitta. To approach this from a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, let’s focus on stabilizing these imbalances and supporting your overall system.

First, dietary modifications can be essential. Favor warm, nourishing foods such as whole grains, cooked vegetables, and warming spices like cumin and ginger. Avoid cold and processed foods that can aggravate vata. Consuming sesame seeds with jaggery daily can help regulate your cycles over time; take one teaspoon of the mixture in the morning.

Herbs like Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) and Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) are traditionally used to support reproductive health and hormonal balance. An appropriate dosage would be around 500 mg of Ashwagandha and 1 gram of Shatavari per day, usually with warm milk. It’s crucial to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for personal dosage and suitability.

Additionally, regular abhyanga (self-massage) with warm sesame oil can be calming to the vata dosha. This practice can be done daily before bathing.

For prolactin management, herbs like Vitex agnus-castus may support hormone balance, albeit they should be used cautiously and under guidance.

The timeline for seeing changes can be variable; consistency is key, and improvements might begin within 3-4 months. However, it’s important to closely monitor your health and work with a healthcare professional alongside these practices, especially if there’s ongoing, significant hormonal disturbance. If symptoms persist or worsen, consulting a specialist is vital to rule out any underlying conditions requiring urgent medical intervention.

Dr.V.Yamini Sowbhagya
I am Dr. V. Yamini Sowbhagya, currently working as Assistant Professor at Dr. BRKR Govt Ayurvedic Medical College, Hyderabad—been here for 4 years now, and honestly, still learning every single day. I did both my UG and MS here itself, specialized in Streeroga & Prasuti Tantra (Ayurvedic Gyn & Obs), which kinda gave me this strong base and local connect too... everything I know grew from this place, in a way. I’m super into the preventive side of Ayurveda — like, not just fixing what’s wrong, but stopping it before it starts. I really try to create awareness wherever I can, sometimes even just in daily OP conversations. I genuinely believe half the gynaecological issues we see can be avoided if we just paid attention to simple dinacharya or food patterns or even sleep cycle. But ya, easier said than done — people come in when things go too far. I was selected as a Fellow at the Foundation for Center for Healthcare Entrepreneurship (CfHE) at IITH, Kandi, Sanga Reddy... which kinda pushed me into research + innovation mode. I got to see healthcare from another angle entirely — not just as a doctor but as a thinker. That time challenged me in diff ways, not all comfortable, but really useful. Academically, I love teaching. Like, genuinely. Theory, clinics, discussion — I try to make it real and not just memory games. Students need space to ask stupid questions, and I'm okay with saying "I don’t know" sometimes n checking later. Apart from that, I keep my hands in research stuff too — been involved in quite a few platforms, from college-level to inter-institutional. And ya, I did recieve a bunch of awards n cash prizes over the years, at both state n national level... it’s nice, though I don’t chase them. What matters more is if someone somewhere feels like they got heard or healed. That’s the bit I try not to lose in all this system madness.

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.

HELLO JANVI,

Ayurvedic Perspective Light/short duration (Alpa Rajah) is commonly associated with Vata + Pitta imbalance and Artava Dhatu weakness (reproductive tissue). High prolactin indicates hormonal imbalance → in Ayurveda as Agnimandya (impaired digestion/metabolism) and disturbed Rasa–Rakta Dhatu.

Management

1. Diet (Āhāra) Warm, soothing foods: milk, ghee, sesame, dates, jaggery, soaked almonds.

Avoid: junk food, too much coffee/tea, cold & dry foods.

-Take black sesame + jaggery laddoo daily (particularly before & during periods).

2. Lifestyle (Vihāra) Normal sleep (10pm–6am). Gentle yoga: Baddha Konasana, Bhujangasana, Setubandhasana. Relieve stress (pranayama: Anulom Vilom, Bhramari).

3. Herbal Support (Aushadhi)

-Shatavari churna –1 tsp with warm milk in morning supports reproductive system.

- Ashokarishta – 20ml + equal water twice daily after meals controls menstrual flow.

-Dashmool kwath – 40 ml twice daily pacifies Vata, beneficial for pain & irregularity.

-Praval pishti (if Pitta heat symptoms are present)= 125mg with honey twice daily

4. Panchakarma (if imbalance is not corrected) Uttar Basti (medicated oil/ghee enema through uterus, performed under expert supervision). Nasya with Anu Taila (regulates hormones).

Timeline With diet + lifestyle + herbs appropriately, changes are generally noticeable in 3–6 months. Follow-up regularly, particularly to re-check the prolactin levels.

THANK YOU

DR. HEMANSHU MEHTA

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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.

Dr. Vijayalaxmi Teradahalli
I am an Ayurvedic physician with clinical experience in both integrative setups and more focused specialty roles—which honestly gave me a pretty wide-angle view of how Ayurveda fits into modern patient care. I worked as the Clinic Head at Madhavbaug in Bangalore, where I wasn’t just doing OPD rounds—I was planning full treatment flows, coordinating team work, following up lab trends, and helping ppl navigate chronic issues like diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and early-stage cardiac concerns. That job made me think way more about how Ayurveda can support preventive cardiology, not just wait for something to go wrong. Then came a whole different space—my time as duty doctor at a maternal hospital. It was intense, but super valuable. I worked closely with mothers through their antenatal and postnatal phases, and learned how to weave Ayurvedic support into that space without overloading the system. Like, knowing when to use a herbal decoction vs when just timing a meal better might shift the outcome. There were also moments where I had to adjust protocols based on what was happening in real time—not everything follows the textbook. Across both places, one thing stayed common—I focused hard on root-cause thinking. Not just patching up numbers or covering symptoms. I try to build care that lasts beyond that one consult. Whether it’s tweaking an oil to match a dosha shift, or helping someone actually follow a sleep routine without making them feel guilty for missing it... I believe real care is flexible, but still rooted in the classics. I use Panchakarma selectively—like Virechana or Basti when truly called for—and combine that with solid dietary advice, patient-led journaling, and mind-body awareness. I don't force rigid changes. I work with the patient's rhythm. That way it sticks better. For me, it’s not just about prescribing herbs or quoting sutras. It’s about building trust, helping people reconnect with their bodies, and using Ayurveda in a way that fits their life—not in a way that overwhelms it. That’s the kind of work I’m trying to build, one step at a time.

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. 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.
