The Ayurvedic Way to Balance Your Hormones and Reclaim Your Health
According to Ayurveda, PCOD/PCOS is primarily caused by an imbalance in the doshas, especially an aggravation of Kapha. Poor digestion (Agnimandya) leads to toxin (Ama) accumulation, sluggish metabolism, and blockage in bodily channels, which manifests as cysts and hormonal imbalance.
The Ayurvedic approach doesn’t just treat the symptoms; it works on rebalancing the doshas, cleansing the system, and nurturing reproductive health.
The 4-Pillar Approach to Healing PCOS Naturally
1. Diet (Ahara):
- Eat warm, cooked, easily digestible meals.
- Avoid dairy, sugar, processed foods, and cold items.
- Include spices like cumin, turmeric, and fenugreek.
- Drink warm water throughout the day.
2. Lifestyle (Vihara):
- Maintain a consistent daily routine (Dinacharya).
- Practice yoga (Supta Baddha Konasana, Bhujangasana).
- Engage in Pranayama and meditation to reduce stress.
3. Detoxification (Shodhana):
- Panchakarma treatments like Basti (enema) and Virechana (purgation).
- Simple home detox with Triphala and warm water.
4. Herbal Support (Aushadhi): This is where Ayurveda truly shines. Certain herbs can bring powerful balance to the endocrine system and help restore natural menstrual cycles.
🌿 Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus):
