Kanchanar guggulu 1 BD Arogyavardini vati 1 BD Avoid cabbage cauliflower raw salads Include berries iodine in your diet

You have been on medication for 13 years (half your life). Your thyroid gland is now habituated to external hormones. A complete cure (stopping Thyronorm entirely) is difficult and takes time because the gland has been inactive for so long. We can reverse the dependency by reactivating your gland. We start Ayurveda alongside your 88mcg. As your TSH drops, your endocrinologist will naturally lower your dosage. Do not stop Thyronorm 88mcg abruptly, or your TSH will spike dangerous high.

Ayurvedic Prescription Medicines 1 Kanchana Guggulu: 2 tablets twice daily with warm water (empty stomach or before meals).
2 Arogyavardhini Vati: 1 tablet twice daily after food. 3 Hamsapadiyadi Kshayam 2tsp-0-2tsp with 2tsp warm water before food twice daily

Dietary Advice Eat 2 Brazil Nuts (or a handful of Walnuts) daily. Selenium is the fuel for thyroid conversion.

Stop eating Soy products (Soya chunks, Tofu) and Raw Cruciferous vegetables (Cabbage, Cauliflower, Broccoli). Cook them well if you must eat them. They block thyroid function.

Try to minimize wheat (Gluten) as it often triggers autoimmune antibodies.

Lifestyle Advice Yoga: Practice Sarvangasana (Shoulder Stand) for 2 minutes daily. This specific pose puts pressure on the throat, increasing blood flow to the thyroid gland. Pranayama: Practice Ujjayi Breath (Ocean Breath) specifically for throat health.

Start with Divya Thyrogrit 2-0-2 after food with water Aarogyavardhini 1-0-1 after food with water Do pranayam simhasan 5-10 minutes daily. Include iodised salt in your diet Avoid vegetables like cauliflower, cabbage, in your diet. Continue thyronorm as before, check for TSH after 2 months as TSH reduces, reduce the dose of Thyronorm under your doctor’s advice, don’t self medicate.

While modern medicine often considers hypothyroidism a long-term condition managed with thyroxine replacement, Ayurveda approaches thyroid imbalances by addressing underlying causes through balancing doshas, particularly focusing on Kapha and Vata, which can influence gland function. Important to understand, achieving a complete cure with Ayurveda might require a comprehensive approach combining diet, lifestyle adjustments, yoga, meditation, and specific herbal remedies.

Start with ahara (diet): Focus on a diet that balances Kapha and appeases Vata. Include warm, cooked meals like kichadi, lightly spiced with cumin, ginger, and turmeric. Avoid raw, cold foods as they increase Kapha. Avoid processed foods, excessive sugars, and dairy as they can disrupt digestion and potentially exacerbate thyroid issues. Moderate the intake of goitrogenic foods like cabbage and soy, consuming them cooked rather than raw.

For vihara (lifestyle), early rising and regular exercise are essential. Yoga asanas beneficial for thyroid include Sarvangasana (shoulder stand), Halasana (plow pose), and Matsyasana (fish pose). Pranayama like Ujjayi can support thyroid by improving metabolism and reducing stress, a known factor in thyroid dysfunction.

Herbs play a critical role. Consider including Dashmoola, Trikatu, and Guggulu, which can enhance metabolism and support thyroid function. Ashwagandha is reputed to support hormonal balance. However, herbal treatment must be personalized; it’s advisable to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for a tailored formulation.

Routine abhyanga (oil massage) with gentle warm sesame oil can support circulation and lymphatic drainage, reducing Kapha accumulation. Emphasize daily consistency over a long period for noticeable benefits.

Ayurveda suggests living in harmony with nature and adopting a sattvic lifestyle — calming and balancing the mind, minimizing stress and achieving calmness of mind are key. Remember that managing stress greatly impacts thyroid health, consider incorporating regular meditation or mindfulness practices.

Importantly, consult with both your allopathic physician and an experienced Ayurveda practitioner to find a complementary approach. Ayurveda can work alongside your medication by optimizing bodily balance, but it’s crucial to periodically monitor thyroid levels to adjust medical interventions as necessary. Aiming for a more balanced state, and gradual reduction in medication under medical supervision could become a reality.

Start with Divya Thyrogrit 1-0-1 after food with water Kanchanar guggul 1-0-1 after food with water Avoid cabbage, cauliflower, in your diet Use iodised salt in your diet Do pranamyam simhasan, specially for Thyroid problem.

Donot stop allopathic medicine, as your TSH value reduces you can tapper Thyronorm slowly.

HELLO,

Your thyroid is a small gland in the neck that controls your body’s metabolism, meaning -how fast you burn calories -your energy levels -your weight -your mood -your temperature -your hair, skin, digestive strength

AYURVEDIC VIEW

1) KAPHA IMBALANCE -sluggish digestion, slow metabolism, fluid retention

2) VATA IMBALANCE -anxiety, dryness, irregular hormones, nervous system, over activation

3) WEAK METABOLIC FIRE -causes slow hormone conversion and toxin buildup

4) BLOCKAGE IN CHANNELS -especially lymphatic, glandular, and metabolic channels

TREATMENT GOALS -improve thyroid hormone regulation naturally -reduce ama (toxins) and unblock glandular channels -strengthen agni (digestive and metabolic fire) -balance vata and kapha doshas -support lymphatic and endocrine system -reduce long term dependency on increasing doses of medications

INVESTIGATIONS ADVISED

THYROID PROFILE= TSH, Free T4, Free T3

AUTOIMMUNE MARKERS= anti-tpo, anti-Tg

GENERAL TESTS= CBC, ESR/CRP, Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Fasting glucose, Lipid profile

These help track progress and adjust treatment safely

DURATION OF TREATMENT Ayurvedic thyroid support is gradual but effective -6 WEEKS= noticeable improvement in energy and digestion -3 MONTHS= hormonal balance begins -6 MONTHS= stable correction of doshas and metabolism -1 YEAR= deeper glandular support and long term balance
