Doctors' responses

–Since you are breastfeeding your 4-month-old baby, Pigmento can be used .If it is a topical cream, it may be used on small areas but avoid applying it on the breast area and wash hands after applying, if using on breastarea then before breastfeeding clean it properly.

Is it a tablet or topical ointment?? If it’s topical ointment can use but if it’s a tablet form better to hold ot

- Pigmento (by Charak) contains herbs like Bakuchi (Psoralea corylifolia), which are traditionally used for vitiligo. - However, Bakuchi and similar strong herbs are not proven safe during breastfeeding. They may affect the baby through breast milk. - Therefore, it is not advisable to take Pigmento while you are breastfeeding unless a qualified Ayurvedic physician specifically approves it. External Care— - Kumkumadi Taila: Apply lightly at night for skin nourishment. - Haldi + Amla paste: Apply on patches 2–3 times weekly. - Bakuchi oil : Avoid direct sunlight after application.

Since you baby is 4 months, you can use pigmento local application on affected area twice daily, but be careful baby does not come in contact to this cream. Tablet pigmento can start after 2 months, i.e. after baby is 6 months, starts eating soft diet Do pranayam lom -vilom bhastrika bhamri 5-10mins twice daily. Avoid wrong food combination like milk with citrus fruits, nonveg food, curds, Salty foods, snacks.

HELLO, Yes, you can consider Ayurvedic management for vitiligo during breastfeeding but under precautions, because some herbs may pass through breast milk. Vitiligo is correlated with Shwitra/kilasa, mainly caused by imbalance of pitta, kapha and rakta dhatu. Factors involved -impaired digestion -toxin accumulation -improper diet combinations -stress or hormanal changes Breastfeeding mothers need mild and safe treatment, focusing more on diet and external therapy CAN YOU USE PIGMENTO WHILE BREASTFEEDING? -Pigmento capsules usually contain bakuchi, majistha, neem etc -Bakuchi is strong and photosensitising , so during breastfeeding it should be only taken under supervision -self medication is not recommended SAFER APPROCH -Prefer external applications and dietary correction first -If internal medicine is required, doctor will examine and decide EXTERNAL AYURVEDIC TREATMENT These are usually safer during breastfeeding BAKUCHI OIL -Apply a very small amount on white patches -expose to mild sunlight for 5-10 minutes -start 2-3 times per week ALTERNATIVE GENTLE OILS -Neem oil -Coconut oil + turmeric Always patch test first to avoid irritation DIET FOR VITILIGO Ayurevda given great important to correct diet -whole grains wheat, barley, millet -green vegetables -amla -pomegranate -black sesame seeds -moong dal -turmeric -cow ghee in small quantity AVOID -milk with salty or sour foods -fish + milk combination -curd especially at night -very sour foods -junk food and processed food -excess tea, coffee Avoid incompatible foods as they aggravate skin disorders LIFESTYLE ADVICE -maintain regular digestion -manage stress important trigger -sleep properly -do light yoga and pranayam -avoid chemical cosmetics on patches HELPFUL PRACTICES -Anulom vilom -gentle morning sunlight exposure DO FOLLOW HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL THANK YOU

नमस्कार, जी हां, स्तनपान के दौरान आप विटिलिगो के आयुर्वेदिक उपचार पर विचार कर सकती हैं, लेकिन सावधानी बरतें, क्योंकि कुछ जड़ी-बूटियां स्तन के दूध में जा सकती हैं। विटिलिगो का संबंध श्वित्र/किलास से है, जो मुख्य रूप से पित्त, कफ और रक्त धातु के असंतुलन के कारण होता है। संबंधित कारक: - पाचन में गड़बड़ी - विषाक्त पदार्थों का संचय - आहार का अनुचित संयोजन - तनाव या हार्मोनल परिवर्तन स्तनपान कराने वाली माताओं को सौम्य और सुरक्षित उपचार की आवश्यकता होती है, जिसमें आहार और बाहरी चिकित्सा पर अधिक ध्यान दिया जाता है। क्या स्तनपान के दौरान पिगमेंटो का उपयोग किया जा सकता है? -पिगमेंटो कैप्सूल में आमतौर पर बकुची, मजिष्ठा, नीम आदि होते हैं। -बकुची तेज और प्रकाश के प्रति संवेदनशील होती है, इसलिए स्तनपान के दौरान इसे केवल डॉक्टर की देखरेख में ही लेना चाहिए। -स्वयं दवा लेना उचित नहीं है। सुरक्षित तरीका -पहले बाहरी उपचार और आहार में बदलाव को प्राथमिकता दें। -यदि आंतरिक दवा की आवश्यकता हो, तो डॉक्टर जांच करके निर्णय लेंगे। बाहरी आयुर्वेदिक उपचार ये आमतौर पर स्तनपान के दौरान सुरक्षित होते हैं। बकुची तेल -सफेद धब्बों पर बहुत थोड़ी मात्रा में लगाएं। -5-10 मिनट के लिए हल्की धूप में रखें। -सप्ताह में 2-3 बार लगाना शुरू करें। वैकल्पिक सौम्य तेल -नीम का तेल -नारियल तेल + हल्दी जलन से बचने के लिए हमेशा पहले पैच टेस्ट करें। विटिलिगो के लिए आहार आयुर्वेद में सही आहार को बहुत महत्व दिया गया है। -साबुत अनाज - गेहूं, जौ, बाजरा -हरी सब्जियां -आंवला -अनार -काले तिल -मूंग दाल -हल्दी -गाय का घी (कम मात्रा में) इनसे बचें: -नमकीन या खट्टे खाद्य पदार्थों के साथ दूध -मछली और दूध का मिश्रण -दही, खासकर रात में -बहुत खट्टे खाद्य पदार्थ -जंक फूड और प्रोसेस्ड फूड -अत्यधिक चाय, कॉफी अन्य खाद्य पदार्थों से बचें क्योंकि वे त्वचा संबंधी विकारों को बढ़ा सकते हैं। जीवनशैली संबंधी सलाह: -पाचन क्रिया को नियमित रखें -तनाव को नियंत्रित करें, जो एक महत्वपूर्ण कारक है -पर्याप्त नींद लें -हल्का योग और प्राणायाम करें -दागों पर रासायनिक सौंदर्य प्रसाधनों का प्रयोग न करें सहायक अभ्यास: -अनुलोम विलोम -सुबह की हल्की धूप में बैठना कृपया पालन करें आशा है यह आपके लिए उपयोगी होगा धन्यवाद

Yes, आप Pigmento tablet breastfeeding के दौरान ले सकती हैं यह vitiligo के लिए सबसे सुरक्षित और लोकप्रिय आयुर्वेदिक दवा है और स्तनपान कराने वाली माताओं में व्यापक रूप से इस्तेमाल होती है। ✓Pigmento लेने का सही तरीका (आपके लिए) डोज: 1 tablet सुबह + 1 tablet शाम (खाने के बाद) Duration: कम से कम 6–12 महीने लगातार (पहले 3–4 महीने में नए स्पॉट्स रुकने लगते हैं, फिर रेपिगमेंटेशन शुरू होता है) ✓साथ में: Kumkumadi Tailam – 3–4 drops affected areas पर रात को हल्की मालिश (face, hands, patches पर) Bakuchi oil (diluted with coconut oil 1:3) – patches पर रात को लगाएं (सिर्फ रात में, धूप से बचें) ✓जरूरी सावधानियाँ (breastfeeding के दौरान) Pigmento में Bakuchi (Psoralea corylifolia) है = बहुत कम मात्रा में होता है, कोई toxicity रिपोर्ट नहीं मिली breastfeeding में धूप में न निकलें (सुबह 10 से शाम 4 बजे तक)= vitiligo patches ज्यादा फैल सकते हैं Sunscreen SPF 50+ जरूर लगाएं (patches पर भी) बच्चे को दूध पिलाने से पहले हाथ/chest अच्छे से धो लें अगर oil लगाया हो ✓Diet & lifestyle tips रोज: काले तिल 1 छोटा चम्मच (भूनकर), अंजीर 2–3 भिगोकर, अनार 1, गाजर का जूस (छोटा गिलास) Avoid: खट्टा (नींबू, इमली, सिरका), मछली/समुद्री भोजन, बैंगन/टमाटर कच्चा, ज्यादा मिर्च सूरज की रोशनी 10–15 मिनट सुबह 8–9 बजे (controlled sun exposure patches पर) Regards Dr Gursimran Jeet Singh MD Panchakarma

Only use topical applications on the body during breastfeeding. Do not apply on or near the nipple area. Baby’s saliva backwashing into the mother’s nipple during breastfeeding helps our mammary glands access the baby’s nutritional needs and produce milk best suited to the baby’s nutritional requirements. Any barriers in that will upset this mechanism, most medications taken by the mother also leak into the breast milk, altering the quality of breast milk. Please don’t take any steroid medications during this period if you can help it. use herbal external appications like bakuchi thaila , but healing of vitiligo lesions depend on its chronicity. hope you take my points into consideration

The formulation you choose is generally considered safe but I advised you to monitor the baby for any change in digestion or skin 1) winsoria oil - apply on patches 2 to 3 times a day and exposed to early morning sunlight for 5 to 10 minutes
