Hello I completely understand how challenging it can be to experience sleep disturbances, anxiety, and bodily changes after menopause and hysterectomy. But don’t worry we are here to help you out😊
✅ AYURVEDIC TREATMENT PLAN
✅INTERNAL MEDICATION
1. Ashokarishta – 20 ml with equal water after food , twice daily ( Helps in hormonal balance and reduces post-menopausal symptoms.)
2. Shatavari Kalpa – 1 teaspoon with milk morning and night ( Nourishes female hormones, calms Vata, improves sleep quality.)
3. Brahmi Vati – 1 tablet twice daily after food (Reduces anxiety, improves concentration, supports restful sleep.)
4. Saraswatarishta – 20 ml twice daily after food with equal water ( Excellent for anxiety, mental fatigue, and emotional stability.)
5. Dashmoolarishta – 20 ml twice daily after meals ( Relieves bloating, joint stiffness, and Vata pain in muscles.)
6 Burcalvin 1-0-1 after food ( for planter fasciitis)
✅LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION
Abhyanga (Daily Oil Massage) Massage your whole body with Ksheerabala Taila before bath. ( Calms Vata, improves sleep, reduces joint stiffness, and promotes a sense of grounding.)
Sleep Routine Apply Brahmi oil or Ksheerabala oil to the soles and scalp before bedtime. Take a cup of warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg and turmeric at night — improves deep sleep and calms the mind.
Yoga & Pranayama Gentle asanas: Supta Baddha Konasana, Balasana, Viparita Karani — calm the nervous system and support hormonal balance. Anulom Vilom and Bhramari Pranayama — twice daily to soothe anxiety and promote relaxation.
✅DIET MODIFICATION
✅ Include
Warm, cooked, easily digestible foods: moong dal khichdi, ghee, rice, soups. Include flax seeds, almonds, dates, milk, and fresh vegetables. Use spices like cumin, ajwain, fennel, turmeric to improve digestion and reduce bloating.
❌ Avoid
Cold, dry, or processed foods (increase Vata). Excess caffeine or sugary foods (trigger anxiety and bloating). Late-night eating and daytime sleeping.
Hydration:
Sip warm water or cumin-fennel tea throughout the day to reduce puffiness and improve metabolism.
If possible, plan for Panchakarma therapies like Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and Basti under Ayurvedic supervision — these are very effective for post-menopausal Vata balancing.
Through gentle Vata-shamana herbs, regular oil massage, proper diet, and calming yoga practices, your anxiety, sleep issues, and energy will gradually improve.
Wishing you a good health 😊
With warmth and care, Dr Snehal Vidhate

HELLO,
After menopause or hysterectomy (removal of uterus +ovaries) , the natural production of female hormones sharply. These hormones are not just for reproduction; they also maintain -the balance of mood and sleep -the strength of bones and joints -skin and hair glow -metabolism and weight regulation -proper functioning of the digestive system
When these hormones decline, Ayurveda describes it as a disturbance of vata and Pitta dosha,and an accumulation of ama (toxins) and kapha imbalance This leads to the symptoms you are facing -Sleep isses= due to aggravated vata and disturbed manovaha srotas (mind channels) -Anxiety, moong swings= due to aggravated prana vata and sadhaka pitta -Weight gain, belly fat, bloating- due to slow weak digestion and kapha accumulation -puffyface, fluid retention- kapha vitiation and lymphatic sluggishness -fatigue, joint pain, plantar fascitis- vata aggravatio and Ojas depletion So, your symptoms are not separate- they are all interlinked manifestations of post menopausal vata-pitta-kapha imbalance

Post-menopause hormonal shifts are quite impactful and can lead to several issues like anxiety, sleep disturbances, weight gain, and other symptoms you’ve mentioned. Ayurveda looks at menopause as a vata imbalance due to its erratic and drying nature.
For your sleep problems, a simple remedy can be consuming warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg before bed. This helps calm the mind and induces sleep. Also consider Brahmi oil massage on your scalp before bed, which promotes relaxation and enhances sleep quality.
The bloating and puffy face might be due to impaired digestion and water retention. Sip on hot water throughout the day to aid digestion and reduce bloating. Adding ginger or cumin seeds to your meals can further improve agni.
Weight gain and big belly could be the result of an imbalanced kapha. Regular physical activity, like a brisk 30-minute walk daily, aids in balancing kapha. Additionally, incorporating foods that are light, dry, and warm can help manage weight. Opt for barley, millet, and fruits like apples and pears.
To address hunger and fluctuating energy levels, try eating small, frequent meals. Include high-fiber foods like vegetables too maintain a stable blood sugar level. Minimize intake of refined sugars and processed foods as they can lead to cravings and energy crashes.
For joint pain and plantar fasciitis, consider daily light massage with warm sesame oil to alleviate the pain. It improves circulation and lubricates the joints. Practicing gentle yoga, focusing on stretching and strengthening the feet, might also be beneficial for plantar fasciitis.
If symptoms persist or worsen, seeking personalized guidance from a qualified healthcare professional is essential to ensure comprehensive care.
