Ayurveda’s View of PCOS
In Ayurveda, PCOS is typically seen as a Kapha and Vata imbalance affecting the reproductive system. Poor digestion (agni), toxin buildup (ama), and mental stress all contribute to the disorder.
Natural Management Strategies
- Herbal Support: Shatavari, Ashoka, Triphala, and Guduchi help regulate hormones and cleanse the system.
- Diet and Lifestyle: Eat warm, freshly cooked meals. Avoid dairy, sugar, and processed foods. Follow a consistent daily routine (dinacharya).
- Yoga & Pranayama: Gentle yoga poses like Baddha Konasana, Bhujangasana, and deep breathing can support ovarian function and lower stress.
- Panchakarma: Detox therapies like Virechana and Basti are customized to cleanse the reproductive system and improve hormonal balance.
Mind-Body Connection
Chronic stress can worsen PCOS. Practicing meditation and connecting emotionally with your cycle can bring deep healing and self-awareness.
When to Seek Ayurvedic Help
Consult a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized diagnosis and treatment. With time and commitment, natural balance can be restored.
