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 working in Ayurveda for about 2 years now, mainly around gynecological problems, which I honestly feel are way more common than most people realise. I see a lot of women struggling silently with issues like irregular periods, cramps that just don’t stop, mood swings, PCOS kind of symptoms... sometimes they come in after trying a bunch of stuff already n nothing really works long-term. That’s where I try to bring in a more rooted approach. I use a mix of Ayurvedic principles, dietetics (like food based on dosha & body type etc), and yoga therapy to manage these conditions. It’s not just about reducing pain during periods or balancing hormones—it’s more like trying to understand what’s causing the imbalances in the first place. I spend time trying to map the prakriti-vikriti profile and see how stress, food, daily habits are impacting the cycle. I don’t rush things, coz honestly healing isn't linear and doesn't follow some fixed timeline. And not everyone wants to jump into panchakarma straightaway either, right? Also pain management is a big part of my work. Whether it’s period cramps or pelvic pain, or even chronic stuff tied to digestion and fatigue, I look at how we can ease that naturally. Sometimes through simple things like castor oil packs, or subtle shifts in routine, other times I may recommend herbs or formulations. Yoga plays a huge role too, esp. when the body feels stuck or inflamed. Not gym-style yoga, more therapeutic.. breath n movement syncing with dosha correction, that kind of thing. To be honest, I’m still learning—Ayurveda’s depth is huge, and I feel like I’m just getting started. But what I do know is, when I see women begin to trust their own body’s rhythm again, that’s really powerful. Makes all the effort worth it. Even small relief matters. It's not perfect, sometimes things take longer, sometimes we need to adjust mid-way... but it's real.

Since your periods have been absent for the last 6 months and you now have pain in the right side of the abdomen with a past history of ovarian cyst surgery, it is very important to get a Pelvic Ultrasound (USG abdomen + pelvis) done immediately.

This test will help check: Whether there is any recurrence of ovarian cyst. If there are complications like torsion, rupture, or adhesions after surgery Condition of the uterus and ovarian function Please do not start any medicine until this scan is done. Once the report is available, treatment can be planned safely.

Dr. Kavya Rejikumar
I am an Ayurvedic doctor with a deep interest in musculoskeletal, digestive, and gynecological disorders — and honestly, what drew me to this field was not just the herbs or panchakarma but the way Ayurveda sees people. Like not just "symptom–prescription", but prakriti, lifestyle, emotional pattern, diet habits… all of it matters. I work with a lot of cases like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, IBS, and infertility – and yeah, these aren’t simple or short-term. Each one shows up with layers. For arthritis, I look into inflammation, gut health, sleep, old injuries, ama buildup. For IBS, it's more than just food triggers — it’s anxiety, vata imbalances, irregular routines. In infertility cases, I always go beyond reports – tracking menstrual patterns, digestion, sleep quality, emotional stress, even past trauma if it's relevant. Some ppl come in scared, confused, exhausted. And I just try to hold space first... before doing anything else. I usually work with a mix of Panchakarma (only when needed, not for everyone), classical Ayurvedic medicines, diet tweaks, and small lifestyle shifts. Nothing fancy – just consistent things that actually work if done right. Sometimes it's simple changes like warm water routines, reducing viruddha ahara (wrong food combis), or daily abhyanga that make big shifts. My goal’s always been: don’t just treat, actually teach them how their body works. Once that understanding comes, half the fear goes away. I do my best to explain in plain words, not textbook terms. And of course, I still read, keep learning, sometimes get stuck too — but this process still excites me. Helping someone move from pain to clarity — whether it's joint stiffness, bloating, or irregular cycles — that feels meaningful. That’s the path I walk, slow but steady.

HELLO PRAJAKTA,

-You are 27 years old, had ovarian cyst surgery in 2020. -periods have stopped for 6 months (secondary amenorrhea) -Pregnancy is ruled out (test negative) -Now you also have right-sided abdominal pain for 5 days.

In Ayurveda, when menstruation is absent, it is called Artava kshaya (decrease of menstrual flow) or Nastartava (complete absence of menstruation). -This usually happens because of imbalance in Vata and kapha dosha -Vata responsible for movement gets obstructed by kapha responsible for growth, cyst like formulations, leading to blockage of reproductive channels -surgery may remove cysts but doesn’t correct the underlying imbalance, so the problem so the problem can come back

Before starting treatment, the following tests help rule out other causes -Pelvic ultrasound= check uterus, ovaries (for cyst recurrence, endometrium thickness) -Hormone tests- TSH, FSH, LH, Prolactin, Estradiol, Progesterone, AMH -CBC and Blood sugar= to rule out anemia and insulin resistance (common in PCOS)

TREATMENT GOALS -Clear obtruction in reproductive channels -Regulate hormones naturally -strengthen uterus and ovaries to maintain healthy cycles -prevent recurrence of cysts -relieve abdominal pain and improve digestion

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) RAJAHPRAVARTINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily with warm water after meals =stimulates uterus, helps initiate periods

2) ASHOKARISHTA= 20 ml + equal water after meals twice daily =regulate menstrual cycle, reduces pain

3) KUMARYASAVA= 20 ml with equal water after meals twice daily =supports ovarian function, acts as mild uterine tonic

4) PHAL GHRITA= 1 tsp with warm milk in morning =nourishes reproductive tissues, balances vata

5) SHATAVARI CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at night =rasayana for female health, improves fertility and hormonal balance

DURATION= usually 3 months of continuous therapy

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) OIL MASSAGE with warm sesame oil =relaxes body , reduces vata

2) STEAM TO ABDOMEN AND LOWER BACK -releives pain, removes channels blockages

3) LEPA (herbal paste on lower abdomen ) =reduces pain and kapha obstruction

LIFESTYLE CHANGES -Sleep= maintain regular regular sleep, avoid staying up late -Exercise= moderate daily exercise like walking, yoga, avoid over exertion -Stress management= meditation, pranayama-since stress directly affects menstrual hormones -Avoid= excess cold exposure, cold water baths, excessive fasting, overwork

DIET -warm, freshly cooked foods -sesame seeds, jaggery, ginger, ajwain, cumin- naturally stimulate periods -ghee in modertion= balance vata -fruits= pomegranate, pineapple, papaya -green leafy vegetables= moong dal, whole grains

AVOID -cold,heavy, stale, junk food -excess dairy (curd, cheese, cold milk ) -oily, deep fried, fast food -excess tea, coffee, alcohol

YOGA AND PRANAYAM Helps balance hormones, relive stress, and improve pelvic blood flow

ASANAS -bhujangasana -Baddha konasana -Malasana -Supta baddha konasana -Dhanurasana

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom -Bhramari -Kapalbhati

Practice daily for 15-20 min

HOME REMEDIES -Seasame + jaggery= 1 tsp roasted sesame seeds with small piece of jaggery daily -Ginger tea= boil fresh ginger in water, drink water twice daily -Ajwain water= boil 1 tsp ajwain seeds in a glass of water, reduce to half, drink warm -Papaya= regulate consummation helps stimulate menstruation

-Since your periods have been absent for 6 months and you have abdominal pain, do not ignore this- get a gynaecological heck up and ultrasound first

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Missing periods can be due to various conditions, especially after experiencing ovarian cysts, and a recent negative pregnancy test further rules out that possibility. The pain you are experiencing in the right side abdomen could be associated with many reasons, possibly the cyst or another unrelated issue. However, it is important to first rule out any acute conditions, so consulting a healthcare professional for this symptom is crucial.

Concerning the absence of your menstrual cycle for six months (amenorrhea), this could be related to hormonal imbalances, stress, nutritional deficiencies, or underlying medical conditions. In Ayurveda, such issues are often linked to an imbalance in the doshas, specifically Vata and Pitta, which govern bodily rhythms and metabolism, respectively.

You can start by including warm, nourishing foods in your diet to balance Vata. Prefer cooked vegetables, whole grains like rice and quinoa, and legumes. Drink warm fluids; ginger tea is particularly benefical. Avoid cold or raw foods, excessive caffeine, and processed sugras. All of these tend to aggrivate Vata.

Adding herbs like Ashwagandha can be helpful. Its grounding properties support hormonal balance and alleviate stress. Take about 1 teaspoon of Ashwagandha powder in warm milk once a day. Ensure you have adequate rest and try to establish a regular sleep cycle, as irregular sleeping patterns can disturb menstrual regularity.

Performing some gentle Yoga poses like Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) and Baddha Konasana (Bound Angle Pose) can help enhancing circulation and stimulate pelvic health. Aim for 15-20 minutes daily.

Triphala, a traditional Ayurvedic formulation, can aid in detoxification and digestive improvement, hence balancing Pitta and regulating hormones. Take 1/2 tsp with warm water before bed.

Regularly practicing pranayama like Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) can calm the nervous system and address underlying stress. Evening walks, moderately paced should be pursued.

Missing proper check-ups should be avoided; please see a doctor immediately to investigate further if pain or other symptoms persist or worsen. A regular health evaluation can identify medical needs beyond the scope of lifestyle and dietary adjustments.

It’s important to address the absence of menstruation alongside your recent abdominal pain with caution. Given your history of an ovarian cyst operation, there could be a few factors at play here. First, it’s crucial to rule out any serious conditions, so I urge you to seek immediate medical attention if the pain worsens or if you experience additional symptoms like dizziness, fever, or unusual discharge.

From a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, the lack of menstruation, or amenorrhea, can often be related to an imbalance in the vata dosha and potentially some involvement of kapha. This can disrupt the normal function of the reproductive system. A vital focus should be on balancing these doshas and supporting healthy agni (digestive fire), as it influences all body systems including reproduction.

Diet plays a key role in managing vata imbalances. Aim to consume warm, cooked foods—think rice, whole grains, and stews—prepared with warming spices such as ginger, cumin, and turmeric. Avoid raw foods and cold drinks which can exacerbate vata disturbances. Hydrating with warm herbal teas like fennel or cumin tea can be supportive as well.

Herbal remedies known in the tradition for supporting regular menses include herbs like Shatavari and Ashoka, which can help in balancing reproductive hormones. You may take Shatavari powder, around 1 teaspoon mixed with warm milk or water, twice daily. However, be sure to consult a local Siddha-Ayurvedic practitioner to ensure these recommendations fit your unique body constitution and health status.

For abdominal pain, applying a warm sesame oil massage to the lower abdomen might offer some relief by improving circulation and calming vata. Since the pain is recent and noticeable, it’s important not to delay further evaluation by a healthcare provider, especially considering past surgery and negative pregnancy test results. Always prioritize prompt medical consultation to address potential complications.

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. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

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. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

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.

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. 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. 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. 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. Shaniba P
I am an Ayurvedic doctor, someone who’s pretty much built her clinical journey around natural healing, balance and yeah—just trying to help ppl feel a bit more whole again. I work mostly with conditions that kinda stay with people... like joint pain that won’t go away, periods all over the place, kids falling sick again n again, or just the kind of stress that messes up digestion n sleep n everything in between. A lot of my practice circles around arthritis, lower back pain, PCOD-ish symptoms, antenatal care, immunity problems in kids, and those quiet mental health imbalances ppl often don't talk much about. My approach isn’t just pulling herbs off a shelf and calling it a day. I spend time with classical diagnosis—checking Prakriti, figuring out doshas, seeing how much of this is physical and how much is coming from daily routine or emotional burnout. And treatments? Usually a mix of traditional Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma (only if needed!!), changing food habits, tweaking the daily rhythm, and honestly... just slowing down sometimes. I’m also really into helping ppl understand themselves better—like once someone gets how their body is wired, things make more sense. I talk to patients about what actually suits their dosha, what throws them off balance, and how they can stop chasing quick fixes that don’t stick. Education's a big part of it. And yes, I’ve had patients walk in for constant cold and walk out realizing it’s more about weak agni n poor gut routines than just low immunity. Every case’s diff. Some are simple. Some not. But whether it’s a young woman trying to fix her cycles without hormones or a 6-year-old catching colds every week, I try building plans that last—not just short term relief stuff. Healing takes time and needs trust from both sides. End of the day, I try to keep it rooted—classical where it matters but flexible enough to blend with the world we're livin in rn. That balance is tricky, but worth it.
