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.

Dr. Khushboo
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.

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.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

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. 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.
