Dr. Anupriya
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.

1.Ashokarishta 20 ml with 20 ml water twice daily after meals 2.Shatavari churna 1 tsp twice daily with warm water after meals

- Eat warm, nourishing foods Favor soups, khichdi, ghee, and spiced milk with herbs like ashwagandha, shatavari, and cardamom. These calm Vata and support hormonal balance. - Maintain digestive fire Eat light, cooked meals at regular times. Add hing, jeera, and ajwain to support Agni.

Don’ts for Early Periods - ❌ Avoid cold, raw, or heavy foods These aggravate Vata and Kapha, leading to stagnation and irregular bleeding. - ❌ No intense exercise or yoga Strenuous movement can disrupt Apana Vata, which governs downward flow. - ❌ Skip oil massages or baths During menstruation, digestion and circulation are weaker. Oils may not be properly metabolized. - ❌ Limit socializing, laughing, or crying excessively Emotional extremes disperse energy. Ayurveda encourages quietude during this phase. - ❌ Avoid spicy, salty, or sour foods These can increase Pitta, leading to heavier bleeding and irritability.

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.

Causes of Scanty and Early Periods

Based on your profile, here are some possible contributing factors from an Ayurvedic and general health perspective:

Perimenopause: At age 39, you are in the typical age range for perimenopause, the natural transition to menopause. Hormonal fluctuations during this time can lead to changes in your cycle, including both early and scanty periods. This is often a natural part of aging and not necessarily a cause for concern unless other symptoms are present.

Hormonal Imbalance: While your pelvic scan is normal, subtle hormonal fluctuations can still be at play. Your controlled hypothyroidism is a good example of how hormones affect your body. Even when “under control,” hormonal systems are complex and can influence one another.

Stress: High levels of physical or emotional stress can significantly impact your hormonal balance, leading to changes in your menstrual cycle. Stress can aggravate the Vata dosha, leading to irregular and scanty flow.

Diet and Lifestyle: An irregular lifestyle, poor diet, lack of proper rest, and even excessive or strenuous exercise can disrupt the balance of your doshas and affect your menstrual health.

Ayurvedic Recommendations to Overcome This

Ayurvedic treatment for menstrual irregularities focuses on balancing the doshas, nourishing the reproductive tissues (known as Shukra Dhatu and Artava Dhatu), and promoting proper circulation.

1. Dietary Adjustments (Ahar) Focus on Vata-Pacifying Foods: To balance the lightness and dryness of Vata, incorporate warm, nourishing, and grounding foods into your diet.

Include: Ghee, sesame oil, and other healthy fats. Cooked grains, root vegetables, and warm soups.

Avoid: Cold, dry, and processed foods. Limit raw salads, cold drinks, and fast food.

Include Pitta-Pacifying Foods: To cool the heat of Pitta, favor foods that are naturally sweet, bitter, and astringent.

Include: Sweet fruits like ripe mangoes, grapes, and pears. Bitter greens and vegetables.

Avoid: Pungent, sour, and spicy foods. Limit caffeine, alcohol, and very hot spices like chili and garlic.

Specific Foods:

Black Sesame Seeds: A traditional Ayurvedic remedy. Soak a tablespoon of black sesame seeds in water overnight and consume them in the morning. They are believed to be very nourishing for the female reproductive system.

Dates and Jaggery: These are good sources of iron and are considered Vata-pacifying and nourishing.

Cumin, Coriander, Fennel (CCF) Tea: This is a classic Ayurvedic tea that helps with digestion and balances all three doshas, particularly Pitta and Vata.

3. Lifestyle and Routine (Vihar)

Stress Management: Given that stress can be a major factor, prioritize activities that calm your nervous system.

Meditation and Pranayama: Daily practice can help reduce anxiety and balance hormones.

Gentle Yoga: Poses that promote blood flow to the pelvic region, like the Butterfly pose (Baddha Konasana), can be beneficial.

Regular Routine: Maintain a consistent sleep schedule and meal times. This helps to ground the Vata dosha.

Oil Massage (Abhyanga): A gentle self-massage with warm sesame oil before your morning shower can be very calming and nourishing for the body, especially for an aggravated Vata.

1) ashokarishta+ kumaryasava 3 tsf after food with water 2 times

2) tab sukumar kashaya 2 tab before food 2 times

Dear Sheema, Thank you for sharing your concern. Scanty periods along with early cycle by 4–5 days can arise due to multiple reasons, and in Ayurveda this is often considered under Artava Kshaya

Since your pelvic scan is normal and you have thyroid under control, it points more towards functional imbalance rather than structural disease.

✅POSSIBLE CAUSES

1. Hormonal influences – Thyroid, even when under medication, can sometimes cause subtle menstrual irregularities. Hormonal fluctuations are a major reason for early or scanty flow.

2. Vata imbalance – Excessive stress, overwork, late nights, fasting, or dry foods increase Vata leading to irregular flow.

3. Pitta imbalance – Excess heat, spicy foods, or emotional stress can make cycles early but reduce overall quantity.

4. Nutritional deficiencies – Low iron, vitamin D, or lack of healthy fats can contribute to weak flow.

5. Emotional and lifestyle factors – Worry, stress, and physical overexertion affect menstrual rhythm.

6. Other chronic conditions – Since PCOD and pelvic pathology are ruled out, only thyroid and functional imbalance remain important.

✅ AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMEMT

✅INTERNAL MEDICATION ( to improve flow )

1 Rajapravartini vati 1-0-1 after food ( to improve flow) 2 Ashokarishta 30ml-0-30ml after food – regulates cycle and balances hormones. 3 M2 tone 1-0-1 after food

✅ DIET MODIFICATION

Prefer warm, nourishing, unctuous foods like milk, ghee, sesame, dates, soaked almonds, raisins, jaggery, moong dal, leafy greens.

Include iron-rich foods (pomegranate, beetroot, black raisins, jaggery).

Avoid very spicy, sour, excessively dry foods, cold drinks, and too much caffeine.

Take timely meals; avoid fasting or crash dieting.

✅LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

Maintain regular sleep pattern; avoid late nights.

Manage stress through pranayama (Anulom-Vilom, Nadi Shuddhi) and meditation.

Gentle yoga poses helpful for reproductive health – Baddha Konasana, Bhujangasana, Vajrasana, Setu Bandhasana.

Avoid excessive physical strain during periods.

With a nourishing diet, lifestyle corrections, stress management, and supportive Ayurvedic formulations, your cycle can gradually become regular and healthy.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

HELLO SHEEMA,

-Normally, a women’s uterus builds a thick inner lining every month. When hormones fall, this lining sheds as periods. -If the lining doesn’t build properly (due to low hormones, stress, thyroid imbalance, or aging ovaries), the bleeding becomes less (salty) -If hormones trigger the lining to shed earlier than usual, cycles come before time (early by 4-5 days on your case) -At age 39 years, your body may also be entering perimenopause, when cycles naturally start to shorten and fluctuates -Since our scan is normal and thyroid is controlled, this is mostly due to hormonal fluctuations + natural ovarian aging

TREATMENT GOALS -balance hormones naturally - support ovaries, pituitary , thyroid -nourish and strengthen uterus and endometrium -correct vata-pitta imbalance -regulate periods- make cycle more regular and bleeding adequate -support long term women’s health during perimenopause

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) ASHOKARISHTA= 20ml with equal water after meals twice daily =balances pitta, supports uterus, regulates cycles

2) DASHMOOLARISHTA= 20 ml + equal water after meals twice daily -reduces vata, relieves pain, strengthens reproductive system

3) SHATAVRI CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk once daily in morning =cooling , nourishing, hormone-supportive, enhances fertility and cycle regularity

4) PHALA GHRITA= 1 tsp in warm milk morning on empty stomach =nutritive, improves endometrium health, balances hormones

5) RAJAH PRAVARTINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily (if cycles become very irregular/scanty) =helps regulate menstrual flow by stimulating uterine function

DURATION= 3-6 months

LIFESTYLE CHANGES -maintain regular sleep-wake cycle (early to bed, early to rise) -Avoid stress, overwork, late nights all worsens vata -avoid excessive fasting, dieting, or skipping meals -moderate exercie- walking, yoga avoid over strenuous workouts

YOGA ASANAS -baddha konasana -bhujangasana -setu bandhasana -balasana

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom -bhramari -sheetali

DIET -warm,nourishing, oily foods -ghee sesame oil, soaked almonds -jaggery, dates, raisins, figs, black sesame seeds -whole grains- wheat, rice, millets in moderation -cow’s milk, buttermilk, fresh seasonal fruits -pomegranate, papaya, grapes -urad dal, moong dal, leafy greens

AVOID -excess spicy, sour, very salty foods -cold drinks , refrigerated food, dry snacks -too much tea/coffee, alcohol -excessive dieting, junk food

HOME REMEDIES -sesame jaggery laddos= 1 daily, especially in winter -soaked raisins= 7-10 overnight, eat in morning -warm milk with a pinch of turmeric and 1/2 tsp ghee at night -fenugreek seeds tea= improves uterine tone -pomegranate juice= helps regulating cycles

Even though your scan is normal, it’s wise to check -Hemoglobin -Vitamin D, B12 -FSH,LH,AMH -Prolactin, Estradiol

-Your condition is not dangerous and is quite common around your age -It is a combination if thyroid history + natural hormonal changes in perimenopausal -With Ayurvedic rejuvinatives, diet and lifestyle corrections, you can improve cycle regularity, flow and overall energy -Treatment aims not just at regulating periods but also at supporting smooth transition into perimenopause, preventing osteoporosis, mood changes, and fatigue -stay regular with medications, do yoga pranayam and keep periodic checkups

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Scanty periods, also known as hypomenorrhea, can occur when the menstrual flow is lighter than usual. In Ayurvedic terms, this might relate to an imbalance in the Vata dosha, which governs movement and flow in the body. Since you’ve mentioned that your thyroid is under control, we’ll focus on factors that might address potential Vata imbalances and related lifestyle aspects.

Your tendency to have early periods, coming 4 to 5 days early, could be linked to factors like stress or nutritional deficiencies. Since you’re 39, it’s also essential to consider early hormonal changes as you approach perimenopause. Factors like diet, lifestyle, and stress levels can play a significant role in menstrual health.

A few suggestions to consider for addressing scanty periods include:

1. Dietary Adjustments: Favor warm, nourishing foods that pacify Vata, such as cooked root vegetables, grains like rice, and healthy fats like ghee. Limit raw foods, cold, dry, or overly spicy meals that may aggravate Vata.

2. Herbal Support: Ashoka, Shatavari, and Aloe Vera have been traditionally used in Ayurveda to support menstrual health. Ashoka could help regularize your cycle, while Shatavari is known for balancing hormones.

3. Regular Routine: Establish a daily routine that involves waking up early, balanced meals, and going to bed at a regular time. Consistency can help balance Vata and support hormonal regulation.

4. Stress Management: Practice yoga or meditation regularly. Pranayama and gentle yoga poses can help stabilize Vata and reduce anxiety, promoting a healthy menstrual cycle.

If your condition persists or worsens, it’s crucial to consult an ayurvedic physician or healthcare provider for personalized guidance, especially if you’re nearing perimenopausal transitions, to ensure comprehensive care considering all underlying factors.

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.

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. 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.

I am working as a Senior Ayurveda Consultant in an Ayurvedic multi-speciality hospital, and honestly it still feels a bit surreal sometimes because the work is so wide and kind of unpredictable each day. I move between different departments, looking at cases that range from simple digestion problems to chronic disorders that need long-term panchakarma support, and I try to bring a balanced clinical view without losing that traditional Ayurvedic touch that gives the whole system its meaning. Some days I’m deeply involved in planning treatment protocols with juniors, other days I end up spending long time with a pt trying to understand where the imbalance actualy started. In a multi-speciality setup you learn fast that nothing comes isolated—one pt walks in for pain, but the root is life-style; another comes with respiratory issues but the digestion is where everything is stuck. I like that part, even if it makes my thought process a bit tangled while I’m working through it. Being in a senior position also means I guide the team on diagnosis patterns, dosha assessment, panchakarma selection, all that practical stuff that you dont get fully from textbooks. And sometimes I mix modern clinical observations with classical Ayurvedic principles just to make sure the pt gets safer and more effective care. I don’t try to make it fancy; I just want the treatment to make sense for the pt sitting in front of me. There’s also a satisfaction in seeing long-term pts return with improvements—pain reducing, sleep stabilizing, metabolism settling down—and knowing the whole team contributed. I keep learning through every case, even when I think I already understand the pattern, there comes some tiny detail that changes the approach. My aim stays the same each day: to offer treatment that feels honest, thoughtful and truly healing, not just symptom management. And working in a multi-speciality hospital gives me that chance to see Ayurveda applied in its full, practical form, with all its depth and little imperfections that make it real.

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.

I am Dr Soukhya, completed my BAMS degree under Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Science, and sometimes I still can’t believe how fast that year of full-time practice went by… feels like I m still figuring small things while already handling so many female disorders and skin related conditions every day. I work mostly with Ayurveda treatments for gynic cases, hormonal ups-and-downs, chronic skin troubles and a few other things that always need more gentle hands than people expect. I am practicing for a year now, but honestly the learning kind of never stop, each patient shows something new… sometimes I even pause thinking “wait, did I explain that right” and then go again with more clarity. My focus stays on understanding the root-cause, balancing doshas properly, and giving care that feel practical not over complicated. I treated many gynic issues, from irregular cycles to pregnency related discomforts, and a lot of cosmetology concerns too (acne, pigmentation and stuff that people get worried about really quickly!). I am also running offline yoga classes for pregnant women and others too… it started simple but grew into this small supportive space where I see how much differnce breathing and mindful movement makes. Sometimes the schedule gets messy, or I m not sure if the batch timing was perfect, but the sessions still turn meaningful. Ayurveda, yoga, routine corrections — all these tie together in my approach. I try to keep things straighforward, even if my notes get a bit scattered here and there or a comma miss somewhere, but the intention stays steady: help people feel better with methods that respect body’s natural healing.

Dr. Jatin Kumar Sharma
I am a BAMS graduate and currently running my own clinic, where I see patients on a regular basis and try to give them honest, practical care. My daily work involves understanding different health concerns, listening properly to what the patient is going through, and then planning treatment in a way that actually fits their routine. I believe treatment should not feel confusing or rushed, and sometimes even small changes make a big difference. Running my own clinic has taught me a lot about responsibility and consistency. Some days are busy, some are slow, but every patient brings a different challenge and learning. I focus mainly on Ayurvedic treatment methods, lifestyle correction and long-term health balance, rather than quick fixes. There are times when progress takes longer, but I stay patient and keep working with the person step by step. I try to keep my approach simple, practical and honest. For me, real success is when a patient feels better in daily life, sleeps better, eats better and slowly regains balance. That is what keeps me going and improving every day.

Dr. Vinod Kumar
I am working mainly as a Nadi Vaidya, and sometimes I still get a bit lost trying to explain what that really means in short words, because pulse reading kind of feels deeper than what fits in a simple line. When I sit with a patient and place my fingers on the nadi, I try to sense those small shifts in vata pitta kapha that tell me where their system is going out of track… sometimes I re-check it twice just to be sure I’m not missing a tiny variation, even if it makes me look a bit slow in the moment. I am also involved in Ayurvedic medicine preparation and formulations, which is something I enjoy almost too much — mixing the dravya, adjusting the proportions, watching how the balance changes by a small tweak. At times I get distracted thinking if I should try a slightly diff herb profile, but I always stay inside the classical guidelines, just making sure the formulation really matches the patient’s prakriti and their current avastha. Some days my notes get messy and I forget a comma here or there, but the process of crafting a remedy still feels very precise to me. I focus on making medicines that support digestion, metabolism, tissue strength, things like that, because a good formulation can shift a person’s health more gently than people expect. And when I match the nadi reading with a right formulation, the results turn clearer, at least in my expereince. I am trying to grow this work slowly, understanding more about how each patient responds, and adjusting my approach without rushing. Even when doubts pop in my head—like did I judge the pulse too quickly or should I re-evaluate the formulation—I take it as part of learning. Being a Nadi Vaidya with hands-on practice in Ayurvedic preparations feels like a path that keeps opening new layers for me, and I want to keep refining it, even if my thoughts wander or my typing looks a bit off now and then.

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. Suraj Amber
I am practicing Ayurveda for about 8 years now, feels strange saying that because honestly the learning never stops. My work is all about finding balance in the body, not in some abstract way, but literally working with each person’s unique prakriti and the vikriti they’re dealing with at that moment. I follow the classical principles — herbal formulations, Panchakarma therapies, diet corrections, lifestyle tweaks — but nothing is “one size fits all”. Each treatment plan is shaped by the person infront of me, their health history, and the small details you only catch when you really listen. Over time I’ve worked with people dealing with digestion troubles, joint pains, hormonal shifts, stress-related health dips, and even stubborn chronic stuff that didn’t respond much to other methods. My approach is to go for the root cause first, because treating just the symptoms feels like putting tape over a crack... it hides it for a while but doesn’t fix it. That’s also why I focus on prevention — if you stop the imbalance before it grows, you save a lot of pain later. I keep my learning alive by reading classical Ayurvedic texts and joining continuing education whenever I can fit it in (sometimes late nights with too much chai). And I try to pass that clarity on to patients, explaining why a certain herb or therapy is chosen, what changes they might notice, and how they can keep supporting themselves after treatment ends. For me, this is more than just work. It’s a way of living… making choices every day that keep the mind, body, and emotions in some kind of harmony. My goal is still the same as day one — offer care that’s authentic, safe, and actually works for the long run, while making sure the person feels heard and understood through the whole process.

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.
