You’ve been having weight gain around your belly, lighter periods, mood swings, and high anxiety for a few months. These can happen when stress affects your hormones, and sometimes other conditions like thyroid problems or hormone imbalances can contribute. It would be a good idea to do some blood tests to check your hormones, thyroid, and blood sugar. Managing stress, healthy eating, and regular exercise can also help improve your symptoms. –Ayurvedic Medicines 1) Asokarishta – 15 ml twice daily after food 2) Shatavari Capsules– 1 capsule daily 3) Manasamithra Vati – 1 tablet twice daily 4) Evakalp Tablet – 1 tablet twice daily — Lifestyle & Diet Daily morning walk + yoga, pranayama for stress Warm, high-fiber foods; avoid sugary/fried items Maintain regular sleep —Follow-up: 4 weeks or sooner if symptoms worsen

Hello, Your symptoms cluster suggest a classical. Ayurvedic pattern of kapha + vata imbalance with possible medo dhatu (fat metabolism) disturbance and artava kshaya (reduced menstrual flow) , often overlapping with PCOS like presentation Understanding in Ayurveda -central obesity + cravings-> kapha aggravated + medo dhatu dushti -Light periods= vata aggravated in artavavaha srotas -anxiety + mood swings-> vata aggravated + rajas imbalance -Binge eating= kapha + emotional vata GOAL -reduce kapha, stabilize vata , correct metabolism, regulate hormones, calm mind Internal medications 1) Metabolism + fat correction -Triphala tablet= 2 tabs at betime with warm water =detox + improves metabolism + mild hormone balace -Guggulutiktakam kashaya= 15ml + 45 ml warm water twice daily before meals =reduces central obesity, clears channel 2) Hormonal balance + menstrual correction -Ashokarishtam= 15ml + equal water after meals twice daily =improves menstrual flow, uterine health -Shatavari gulam= 1 tsp at night with warm milk =nourishes hormones + reduces vata Anxiety + mood stabilization -Manasmitra vatakam =1 tab at bedtime =best for anxiety, overthinknig, emotional imbalance -brahmi pearl capsule= 1 tab twice daily after meals = improves stress tolerance + focus Cravings and binge control -Varanadi kashaya= 15ml before breakfast =reduces kapha cravings. + fat accumulation Diet very important -warm, light freshly cooked meals -barlet, millets, green gram -spices= jeera, methi, ginger, turmeric -early dinner before 8 pm Avoid -sugar, bakery, dairy excess -cold food, smoothies -fried and processed food For binge control -drink warm jeera water when cravings hit Lifestyle -Exercise= continue good-> add strength training + brisk walk Yoga -surya namaskar -baddha konasana Sleep= before 11pm very important for hormones Mind management Daily -10 min nadi sodhana pranayam -5-10 min meditation Work stress is a trigger-> must be managed, otherwise treatment won’t fully work Expected timeline -3-4 weeks= anxiety, cravings improve -6-8 weeks= weight + inch loss -2-3 cycles= menstrual flow improves Do follow Hope this might be helpful Thank you
