NAMASTE,
YOUR DESCRIPTION FITS VERY CLEARLY WITH A PITTA DOMINANT BODY TYPE WITH VATA INVOLVEMENT DURING PERIODS.
WHEN PITTA IS HIGH IT MANIFESTS AS STRONG ACIDITY ACID FLOWING BACK INTO THE FOOD PIPE ,EXCESS HEAT,SWEATING AND A FEELING OF INTERNAL BURNING EVEN IN COLD WEATHER. DURING MENSTRUATION THE BODY NATURALLY PRODUCES MORE HEAT AND MOVEMENT SO IF PITTA IS ALREADY HIGH IT GETS AGGRAVATED FURTHER WHICH EXPLAINS THE SWEATING HOT FLASHES AND ACID REFLUX AROUND PERIOD TIME.
ABOUT THE PHASE WHEN YOU WERE LIVING WITH YOUR RELATIVES
THERE WERE THREE VERY IMPORTANT FACTORS WORKING IN YOUR FAVOUR AT THAT TIME
FIRST REGULAR NATURAL EXERCISE CLIMBING STAIRS DAILY AND WALKING REGULARLY IMPROVES CIRCULATION HORMONAL FLOW AND DIGESTIVE FIRE WITHOUT OVERHEATING THE BODY THIS KEEPS BOTH PITTA AND VATA IN BALANCE.
SECOND EVENING AND NIGHT WALK A CALM SLOW WALK AT NIGHT ESPECIALLY WITHOUT BRIGHT ARTIFICIAL LIGHT HAS A STRONG NERVOUS SYSTEM CALMING EFFECT. THIS BALANCES VATA WHICH IS THE MAIN CAUSE OF PAIN AND CRAMPS DURING PERIODS.
THIRD LOW LIGHT AND NATURAL DARKNESS. LESS ARTIFICIAL LIGHT AND MORE NATURAL DARKNESS HELPS REGULATE MELATONIN AND OTHER HORMONAL RHYTHMS THIS INDIRECTLY SUPPORTS A REGULAR MENSTRUAL CYCLE AND REDUCES PMS AND CRAMPS THAT IS WHY YOUR PERIODS FELT SMOOTH PAIN FREE AND ON TIME.
NOW THAT YOU ARE NOT IN THAT ENVIRONMENT THE COMBINATION OF IRREGULAR ROUTINE, LESS NATURAL MOVEMENT, MORE ARTIFICIAL LIGHT, AND POSSIBLY MORE STRESS HAS DISTURBED BOTH PITTA AND VATA,RESULTING IN ACIDITY AND DELAYED PAINFUL PERIODS
AVOID SPICY FOOD, CHILLI ,GARLIC ,EXCESS GINGER FRIED ,AND OILY FOOD SOUR FOODS LIKE VINEGAR PICKLES ,EXCESS TAMARIND, TOMATO IN EXCESS, COFFEE ,TEA, COLA CHOCOLATE. LATE NIGHT HEAVY MEALS FASTING FOR LONG HOURS
INCLUDE SOFT COOKED WARM FOOD NOT VERY HOT RICE MOONG DAL KHICHDI OATS PORRIDGE STEAMED VEGETABLES GOURD PUMPKIN CARROT COCONUT IN SMALL AMOUNT MILK BOILED AND COOLED SLIGHTLY IF IT SUITS YOU GHEE IN SMALL QUANTITY
YOU CAN TAKE AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA HALF TEASPOON WITH LUKEWARM WATER
KAMADUGHA RAS ONE TABLET AFTER FOOD
ASHOKARISHTA TWO TEASPOONS WITH EQUAL WATER TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD DASHMOOLARISHTA TWO TEASPOONS WITH WARM WATER IN THE EVENING
EVENING WALK IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN MORNING FOR YOUR CASE AVOID BRIGHT SCREENS ONE HOUR BEFORE SLEEP SLEEP BY TEN THIRTY IF POSSIBLE DO NOT SKIP MEALS
SO YES WHAT YOU EXPERIENCED EARLIER HAD REAL SIGNIFICANCE IT WAS A COMBINATION OF RIGHT MOVEMENT ,RIGHT TIMING AND RIGHT ENVIRONMENT. BY RECREATING EVEN PART OF THAT ROUTINE YOU CAN AGAIN SEE IMPROVEMENT IN BOTH ACIDITY AND MENSTRUAL HEALTH

Okay sir! Thank you for your time. And one more I have major acidity issue. Even one hour walk daily doesn’t help me actually. And i actually don’t eat dinner. Just a warm glass of turmeric milk. Being a student I sit all day.
IN YOUR CASE THE MAIN ISSUE IS NOT LACK OF WALKING BUT CONTINUOUS HEAT BUILDUP AND IRREGULAR FUELING OF THE BODY SITTING ALL DAY CREATES STAGNATION AND INTERNAL HEAT AND WHEN FOOD TIMING IS IRREGULAR ,OR TOO LIGHT AT NIGHT THE ACID HAS NOTHING TO WORK ON SO IT STARTS IRRITATING THE FOOD PIPE.
NOT EATING DINNER IS ACTUALLY WORSENING YOUR ACIDITY, WARM TURMERIC MILK AT NIGHT IS HEAVY ,AND HEATING FOR A PITTA DOMINANT BODY AND TAKING IT WITHOUT PROPER SOLID FOOD MAKES ACID MORE AGGRESSIVE. THIS IS WHY EVEN WALKING DOES NOT GIVE RELIEF.
THE BO GENTLE NOURISHMENT TO ABSORB EXCESS ACID
YOU DO NOT NEED HARD EXERCISE YOU NEED REGULAR MEALS AND COOLING STABILITY
WHAT YOU SHOULD CHANGE NOW
DO NOT SKIP DINNER TAKE A LIGHT EARLY DINNER BY SEVEN THIRTY OPTIONS ARE SOFT RICE MOONG DAL KHICHDI VEGETABLE SOUP WITH RICE OR OATS PORRIDGE AVOID MILK AT NIGHT FOR NOW IF YOU WANT MILK TAKE IT IN THE MORNING
STOP TURMERIC AT NIGHT IT IS HEATING AND NOT SUITED FOR YOU
START TAKING ABOVE ADVICED MEDICINES
EVERY ONE HOUR STAND UP FOR TWO MINUTES
AVOID STUDYING CONTINUOUSLY FOR HOURS WITHOUT BREAK
ONE HOUR WALK IS NOT REQUIRED THIRTY MINUTES SLOW WALK AFTER SUNSET IS ENOUGH NO FAST WALK NO OVERHEATING
FOOD DISCIPLINE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN WALKING IN YOUR CASE
AVOID COFFEE ,TEA, CHOCOLATE TOMATO CHILLI FRIED FOOD BAKERY ITEMS LONG GAPS BETWEEN MEALS
ADD COCONUT WATER IN THE AFTERNOON SOAKED RICE WATER OR BARLEY WATER ONCE DAILY GHEE ONE TEASPOON IN LUNCH
SLEEP BY TEN THIRTY NO MOBILE ONE HOUR BEFORE BED
YOUR BODY IS ASKING FOR COOLING REGULARITY NOT MORE EXERTION ONCE ACIDITY SETTLES YOUR PERIOD ISSUES AND HEAT SYMPTOMS WILL ALSO REDUCE
IF YOU FOLLOW THIS FOR THREE WEEKS YOU SHOULD NOTICE CLEAR RELIEF
Don’t worry take kamadudaras muktayukta 1tab bd, Sutashekar ras gold 1tab bd, satavari ghurtam 1tsp, sukumara kashayam 20ml bd Enough
