For managing thyroid-related issues, Ayurveda focuses on balancing metabolism and improving overall vitality. Your symptoms of weight gain, skin problems, weakness, and allergies indicate an imbalance, often linked to Kapha and Vata doshas, which can disrupt thyroid function. To address this holistically, Ayurvedic herbs, diet, and lifestyle practices can offer significant benefits.
For thyroid support, Kanchnar Guggulu is highly recommended as it helps in managing glandular swellings and supports metabolic balance. Take 1-2 tablets twice daily after meals with warm water. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is another powerful herb that supports thyroid health, alleviates weakness, and enhances energy levels; 500 mg taken twice daily with warm milk or water can be beneficial.
To address skin issues, Manjishtha (Rubia cordifolia) and Neem are ideal for purifying the blood and reducing allergies. You may take Manjishthadi Kwath (15 ml with an equal amount of water) twice daily. Additionally, applying Kumkumadi Taila externally on the skin can help reduce pigmentation and improve complexion.
Weight management can be supported by Triphala powder (1 teaspoon with warm water at bedtime), which aids digestion and detoxification. Dietary adjustments, such as avoiding cold, heavy, or oily foods, and emphasizing warm, lightly spiced foods, are key to balancing metabolism. Adding more fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and moderate amounts of protein will also support weight management and skin health.
Incorporating gentle exercise and yoga into your routine will further aid in balancing your metabolism and boosting energy levels.

To manage thyroid-related symptoms like weight gain, skin issues, weakness, and allergies, focus on a balanced diet rich in iodine, selenium, zinc, fiber, and hydration to support thyroid health, skin, and energy levels. Regular exercise, such as walking or yoga, can help boost metabolism and reduce stress, which often worsens thyroid symptoms. For skin care, apply natural moisturizers like coconut oil or aloe vera, and consider herbal masks with turmeric and honey. Ayurvedic herbs like ashwagandha, triphala, and guggul may support thyroid function and overall wellness, but it’s best to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for guidance. Maintain a consistent routine with set meal times and prioritize quality sleep to stabilize metabolism and manage fatigue. Regular checkups with a healthcare provider will help monitor and manage your thyroid health effectively.

Ah, thyroid issues can really mess with your system, it's no fun but let's see what we can do about it from an Ayurvedic perspective. Ayurveda looks at thyroid problems generally as a kapha imbalance, considering it's heaviness and stagnation impact on your body. But there's more to pay attention to, like vata and pitta imbalances too.
First up, about weight gain – I'd suggest focusing on boosting your agni – that's your digestive fire, think of it as your metabolism engine running your body. Triphala churna, an Ayurvedic classic, taken every night before bed with warm water can help. It's generally safe but best to start with half a teaspoon, see how your body responds.
When it comes to skin problems, Try neem and turmeric – make a paste with water and apply on troubled areas. Both have great anti-inflammatory and anti-everything bad properties that can help cool and heal your skin. Though remember to patch test first, some skins are sensitive!
To address weaknesses, Ashwagandha is a wonderful adaptogen which strengthens and balances your system. It's great for energy and adaptative response to stress. Around 300 mg of a good extract daily might be supportive. Check how you feel with it, though.
Skin allergies might benefit from cilantro juice, fresh leaves blend with a little water to take in the mornings. It can help pacify Pitta when skin reactions flare up.
Don't forget your daily lifestyle – consistent sleep, regular balanced meals, stress management with yoga or meditation, these small changes can build a solid foundation of harmony in your body's systems. Meals emphasizing warm, cooked, easy to digest foods can make a good difference, combined with sipping hot water during the day.
Lastly, keep in touch with a healthcare professional to monitor your thyroid levels and adjust treatment if needed. Ayurveda is great but work with your current treatments for the best balance. Make changes one at a time and observe how they work for you.
