Comprehensive women's health treatment addressing gynecological conditions and reproductive wellness.

POLYCYSTIC OVARIAN DISORDER (PCOD)

  • PCOD/PCOS is a lifestyle disorder and hormonal disorder common among women of reproductive age.
  • Women with PCOS have infrequent or prolonged menstrual periods or excess male hormone (androgen) levels.
  • Factors like genetics, insulin resistance, and inflammation may play a role in the development of PCOD.
  • Symptoms can vary widely, including irregular periods, weight gain, excess hair growth, and acne.
  • Treatment typically involves lifestyle changes, medication to regulate the menstrual cycle, and managing symptoms like acne and excess hair growth.

LEUCORRHOEA

  • Leucorrhoea includes all abnormal blood-free vaginal discharges with or without foul smell or itching.
  • Can cause pain in the thighs and calf muscles and burning during micturition (urination).
  • Ayurvedic treatment of leucorrhoea is aimed at balancing Kapha dosha.
  • Treatment focuses on restoring the digestive fire and cleansing accumulated toxins.
  • Rejuvenating herbs are used to tone the reproductive system.

DYSFUNCTIONAL UTERINE BLEEDING (DUB)

  • Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is abnormal uterine bleeding in women with no clear underlying cause.
  • DUB has been observed in both ovulatory and anovulatory cycles and impacts physical, social, emotional, and material quality of life.
  • Ayurveda considers heavy menstrual bleeding as Rakta Pradara, mostly attributed to an unwholesome diet and lifestyle that vitiates the doshas.
  • Treatment protocol includes dosha purifications like virechana and basti (Panchakarma therapies).
  • Vaginal tampons (yoni pichu), avagaham, and oral medicines help balance the doshas and correct the condition.

UTERINE FIBROID

  • Uterine fibroids (leiomyomas) are benign tumours of smooth muscle, originating in the uterine wall.
  • Symptoms include abnormal and excessive uterine bleeding, pelvic pain, painful intercourse, and infertility.
  • Ayurvedic management includes Vata-Kapha pacifying therapies and blood purifying medicines.
  • Treatments focus on managing weight and hormonal imbalance and stress management.
  • Aims to balance the body's doshas, enhance reproductive health, and improve chances of conception.
  • Treatment involves a combination of therapies, herbal remedies, and lifestyle modifications based on individual needs.

GARBHA SANSKAR

  • Garbha Sanskar is a traditional Indian practice focusing on overall development of the foetus during pregnancy.
  • Emphasises various activities, behaviours, and practices to promote physical, mental, and spiritual well-being of both mother and unborn child.
