Ayurvedic Concept and Management:

Ayurveda has many beautiful perspectives regarding the human anatomy that are not described in modern science. One such perspective is Srotas. Srotas are those channels throughout the body connecting various organs and organ systems and nourishing them. The root cause of polycystic ovarian syndrome in Ayurveda can be considered an imbalance of channels of menstruation (Arthava vaha Sroto dushti), and the culprit is vitiated Vata, which disordered the functions of Pitta and affected the basic functions of Kapha. Due to lifestyle factors, genetic factors, high stress, sedentary life, obesity, diabetes, specific drug consumption, and overuse of contraceptive pills, the normal metabolic pattern of your body is altered, which leads to the vitiation of Pitta, which controls the hormonal balance of the body. When the hormones are deranged, normal nourishment won’t take place, which will derange Kapha, resulting in cystic formation, which later can lead to the symptoms of PCOS.

The PCOS Cookbook

There is no ideal food for PCOS patients. The diet should be based on your calorie needs, whether you are vegan or non-vegetarian and your daily routines. Always use steamed food items instead of deep fried and baked foods. Drink enough water and fruit juice.

Pulses like lentils, green beans, chickpeas, split peas, raw beans, etc., along with two meals, will help ensure a fiber and protein rich diet with a low glycemic index and low fat.

Fruits that are fresh grown and organic, like pomegranate, apples, papaya, medium ripe bananas, watermelon, gooseberries, guava, strawberries, blueberries, prunes, apricots, ,peaches.

Sai Ayush Ayurveda for PCOS

One in ten women is affected by PCOS, as per research surveys. Not every woman with PCOS suffers from infertility. Eating healthy and staying active should be your primary goals for successful treatment. Hormonal imbalances can be well managed by Ayurvedic herbal decoctions, tablets, herbal tonics, ghee, and powders after assessing your Prakruti and body type.
Deepana and Paachana (to improve digestive fire and metabolism) are followed by the intake of herbalized ghee (clarified butter), based on your unique imbalance. The body is then fully cleansed using an Ayurvedic detox known as Panchakarma. In PCOD, a specialised herbal enema called uthara vasti (detoxification of the reproductive system) is done by an expert consultant. The herbal enemas will help clear out the channels. The Sirovasti (oil pack on the head) and Shirodhara (streaming of warm oil at the third eye) will help relax your mind. The choice of herbs and formulations may vary in each case.

At Sai Ayush Ayurveda, we provide individual care plans for PCOS, beginning with a detailed consultation by our expert Ayurvedic practitioners.
