Doctors’ responses
In Ayurveda, irregular periods, acne, and hormonal imbalances such as high prolactin and testosterone levels are often linked to aggravated Pitta and Vata doshas. Here is a concise management approach:
1. Dietary Recommendations
Reduce Pitta-aggravating foods: Avoid spicy, fried, sour, and overly salty foods.
Favor cooling and hydrating foods: Include coconut water, cucumbers, melons, and leafy greens.
Balance Vata: Incorporate warm, lightly spiced foods with ghee or sesame oil.
Avoid dairy: This can sometimes aggravate acne.
2. Lifestyle Changes
Maintain a regular sleep schedule to balance hormones.
Avoid stress through meditation or yoga (e.g., Nadi Shodhana pranayama).
Engage in moderate physical activity like walking or stretching.
3. Herbal Remedies
Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus): Balances hormones and supports the menstrual cycle.
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera): Helps reduce high prolactin levels and stress.
Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia): Detoxifies and reduces Pitta-related inflammation.
Neem (Azadirachta indica): Purifies blood to manage acne.
Manjistha (Rubia cordifolia): Supports skin health and balances Pitta.
4. External Applications for Acne
Neem and turmeric paste: Antimicrobial properties to reduce acne.
Sandalwood and rose water pack: Cooling and soothing for inflammation.
5. Specific Panchakarma Therapies
Virechana: A gentle purgation therapy to remove excess Pitta.
Shirodhara: Stress relief for hormonal balance.
6. Ayurvedic Formulations (under guidance)
Kanchanar Guggulu: Balances hormones and supports detoxification.
Chandraprabha Vati: For hormonal and menstrual irregularities.
Note: Always consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized treatment.

Oh, irregular periods and acne can be quite frustrating! It sounds like you might be grappling with an imbalance in your hormones, like the high prolactin and testosterone levels you mentioned. From an Ayurvedic perspective, such imbalances are often linked to an aggravated Pitta dosha, which needs some calming.
First up, let's talk diet. Cooling and detoxifying foods can be your best friends here. Load up on fresh fruits and vegetables—stuff like cucumbers, melons, grapes, and leafy greens. Try to steer clear of spicy, fried, or overly salty foods as they can really aggravate Pitta. It might sound cliché, but make sure you're staying properly hydrated; room-temperature water or herbal teas like tulsi or chamomile can help balance things out.
Herbal allies like Shatavari and Ashwagandha might be beneficial since they help balance hormones gently. Maybe you can take Shatavari powder, about a teaspoon, mixed with warm milk daily. Just make sure you consult with a practitioner to ensure these suit your constitution.
Lifestyle plays a big role too. Try to maintain a regular sleep schedule and incorporate stress-relieving practices like yoga or meditation. Stress can raise cortisol, exacerbating those hormonal imbalances. Practicing Pranayama in the mornings can help calm your mind and balance doshas.
Exercise should be moderate—not too strenuous—to keep your energy flowing without adding heat to the body. A brisk walk in the cooler parts of the day could work wonders.
Lastly, address your agni (digestive fire). A teaspoon of fresh ginger juice mixed with honey before meals might help improve digestion and regularize your cycles. Consistency is key—sudden changes or over-restrictions could make things worse instead of better.
And hey, remember to keep in touch with a healthcare professional about those hormonal levels. Ayurveda can complement, but not replace, other medical approaches. Stay safe and take care!
