Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and associated pelvic pain can significantly impact your quality of life, and reliance on painkillers can often lead to additional health concerns. In Ayurveda, PID is often linked to imbalances in Kapha and Pitta doshas, which can contribute to inflammation and discomfort. To manage your condition, consider incorporating herbs such as Ginger and Turmeric, known for their anti-inflammatory properties, along with Ashoka and Guggulu, which may help address pelvic pain and promote healing in the reproductive system.
Additionally, focusing on a diet rich in iron, such as leafy greens, lentils, and beets, can help combat anemia, while pairing these foods with vitamin C-rich sources (like citrus fruits) can enhance iron absorption. Herbal formulations like Triphala can support digestion and detoxification, aiding in overall wellness. Regular Abhyanga (self-massage) with warm oil can also relieve tension and improve circulation in the pelvic area.
Gentle yoga practices focused on relaxation and stretching, such as Supta Baddha Konasana (Reclining Bound Angle Pose), can help alleviate pelvic pain. If you could share more about your symptoms, lifestyle, and any treatments you've tried, it would be helpful in creating a more personalized Ayurvedic approach for your health concerns.

It sounds like you've been through quite a lot with pelvic inflammatory disease, and managing chronic pain is more than a handful, I get it. With Ayurveda, we would look at your unique dpsha balance – it often revolves around Vata, as pelvic pain and chronic conditions are commonly linked there. But each case is its own puzzle to solve.
Given your history, I suggest first focusing on a diet that can pacify Vata and support your condition. Foods like warm soups, ghee, cooked veggies, and whole grains can be beneficial. Avoid anything too dry, cold, or raw; they can aggravate Vata. Spices like ginger, cumin, fennel help enhance Agni (digestive fire) and are great additions.
For anemia, think iron-rich foods and herbs but in an Ayurvedic way. Leafy greens like spinach are good, but cooking them with some lime juice can enhance iron absorption. You should also consider taking Chyawanprash, it’s a traditional remedy with Amla, which is rich in Vitamin C and can help balance the body.
Since you have been using painkillers, exploring a natural means to manage pain might be worth it. Abhyanga, or self-massage with warm sesame or Mahanaranya oil, can be calming and pain-relieving for your chronic pelvic issues. Practicing yoga and meditative breathing can also help in loosening the tightness that chronic pain often causes.
But here's the deal – with any chronic pain condition, get opinions from specialists if needed. Pain management should be safe, so balancing it with Ayurveda is great, but don’t skip what's critical from a medical perspective. Tackling this with a dual approach can maybe bring you some relief. Tread gently on yourself, slow and steady wins this race.
