Doctors' responses
For constant mucus in the throat, targeting Kapha imbalance could be key. Since you’ve already tried Dashamoola and Nasya without success, let’s consider some adjustments. Triphala churna might be beneficial; take half a teaspoon with warm water before bed. It may help improve digestion, reducing mucus formation. Also, drinking warm ginger tea throughout the day can assist in breaking down excess Kapha responsible for mucus production.
Addressing pimples could be related to both dietary causes and Pitta imbalance. Avoid spicy, fried, or excessively oily foods as they can aggravate Pitta and lead to skin issues. Try applying a paste of Turmeric and sandalwood powder once daily, leaving it for 15 minutes before rinsing, which may help soothe and clear skin.
Your missing periods coupled with pimples suggest there could be an imbalance in hormones, often seen with Vata or Kapha disturbances. Ashoka Arishta could be helpful, taken two tablespoons with equal water twice daily after meals. It’s a classical preparation known to regularize menstrual cycles.
For lifestyle, consider incorporating regular yoga and pranayama. Bhastrika and Anulom Vilom pranayama might promote improved circulation and hormonal balance. Making sure to follow dinacharya (daily routine) and ritucharya (seasonal routine) can stabilize doshas, which assists in resolving systemic imbalances.
Importantly, maintain a balanced diet with whole foods, plenty of vegetables, and fruits like pomegranate, which are less likely to disturb your doshas. Stay well-hydrated but avoid cold beverages.
Given that you’re seeing a medical practitioner, it is always prudent to continue consultations with your doctor for monitoring, especially regarding missed periods and the potential hormonal link. Safe, effective, but slow progress should surface with balanced efforts.
