Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder that affects millions of women worldwide, leading to irregular periods, weight gain, acne, excessive hair growth, and infertility. While modern medicine manages PCOS with hormonal pills and insulin sensitizers, Ayurveda offers a holistic, side-effect-free alternative that focuses on root-cause healing.
In Ayurveda, PCOS is linked to the imbalance of Kapha and Vata doshas, impaired digestion (Agni), and accumulation of toxins (Ama) in the reproductive tissues. The goal of Ayurvedic treatment is to detoxify the body, restore hormonal balance, regulate the menstrual cycle, and support natural ovulation.
✅ Ayurvedic Approach to PCOS:
-
Panchakarma therapies like Virechana (purgation) and Basti (enema therapy) remove toxins and balance hormones.
-
Herbal formulations such as Shatavari, Ashoka, Lodhra, and Triphala nourish the reproductive system, regulate periods, and reduce inflammation.
-
Udwarthanam (dry herbal massage) helps manage weight and improve insulin sensitivity.
-
Yoga and Pranayama are recommended for stress reduction and hormone regulation.
Diet and lifestyle changes are equally emphasized—avoiding processed foods, sugar, and dairy while encouraging light, fresh meals and daily physical activity.
PCOS treatment in Ayurveda not only improves reproductive health but also enhances overall wellness—naturally and sustainably.
