Your symptoms of severe headaches, nausea, fatigue, and painful periods suggest an imbalance in both Vata and Pitta doshas, with aggravated Apana Vata affecting the reproductive system and leading to painful menstruation, while excess Pitta may be causing the headaches, nausea, and vomiting. To help manage these symptoms, I recommend Shatavari and Ashokarishta to balance hormonal fluctuations and ease menstrual discomfort. Sukumaram Kashayam is also beneficial, as it supports reproductive health and calms Apana Vata, reducing pain and bloating. For the headaches and nausea, Godanti Bhasma combined with Praval Pishti can be effective, as both help soothe Pitta and ease headaches. Additionally, sipping cumin-coriander-fennel tea throughout the day can aid digestion, prevent nausea, and reduce excess heat. To ease menstrual pain, try castor oil externally as a gentle massage over the abdomen before your period begins. Avoid very spicy, sour, and fried foods, as these can aggravate Pitta. Consult an Ayurvedic practitioner to determine appropriate dosages and ensure these remedies align with your individual constitution and needs.

Severe headaches combined with nausea, tiredness, and painful periods can indeed be distressing. From an Ayurvedic point of view, it might be related to an imbalance in Vata and Pitta doshas. Migraines are often associated with Vata, while your symptoms like nausea and vomiting hint towards Pitta imbalance. Let's break it down a bit.
First things first, always prioritize your safety. If your migraines become debilitating, or there are new changes, do consult a healthcare professional.
For your headaches, you could try Shadbindu taila, an Ayurvedic nasal oil. Basically, a drop in each nostril every morning might help balance the Vata dosha. Just be sure the oil's warm, but comfortable.
Now, about diet, reducing spicy, oily, and fermented foods could balance Pitta. Instead, focus on cooling foods like cucumbers, coconut water, and fennel seeds. Avoid too much caffeine or alcohol, as they can overstimulate Vata.
For those painful periods, Ashoka or Shatavari might be helpful. You could try half a teaspoon with warm water daily, starting a week before your period. It may ease discomfort, but give it some time.
Lifestyle changes can be a big help too. Regular routines, like sleeping and eating at the same time every day, stabilize Vata. Rest is vital when you're feeling that exhaustion creeping in. Also, yoga and pranayama (breathwork) are great for balancing energies; try a few gentle yoga poses like child's pose or legs up the wall if you can.
Lastly, if those period pains are too much, a warm compress can be comforting. Just like Ayurveda’s approach, it’s about finding balance. Try these and see how your body responds, it might take a little while to feel a difference.
Remember, what works for one might not work for another, so listen to your body as it’s your best guide.
