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
