Scanty periods, known as oligomenorrhea in modern terms, often reflect an imbalance in the body’s doshas, particularly vata. Though your diagnostic tests show normal results, changes in lifestyle, stress, or daily routines could disturb the natural rhythm. First, reassessing your Vata dosha might be essential. Vata governs movement and communication in the body and can influence your menstrual cycle.
To address scanty periods, you can try including certain dietary and lifestyle modifications. Consuming warm, nourishing foods like sweet potatoes, ghee, and sesame seeds can be useful. These help balance the Vata dosha. Avoid excessively spicy, dry, or cold foods that could aggravate this imbalance. Also, practicing a regular routine of yoga and meditation can help calm the mind and body, reducing stress and allowing hormones to stabilize.
For herbal support, consider Shatavari, an herb known for balancing female hormones and promoting reproductive health. 1-2 teaspoons of Shatavari powder with warm milk can be consumed daily in the evening. It’s crucial to ensure that digestion is strong, as Agni, your digestive fire, plays a vital role in absorption and processing of nutrients. Drinking warm ginger tea or adding a bit of hing (asafoetida) to meals can support this.
If the issue persists despite these measures, consulting with a healthcare provider who can integrate both conventional and Ayurveda perspectives might be beneficial. Since you’ve already tried some Ayurvedic medicines without effect, personalized treatment is likely needed. If already seeing an Ayurvedic practitioner, reassess with them, focusing on adjustments to minimize imbalance.
