PCOD/PCOS

PCOS is a leading cause of obesity, menstrual irregularity, and infertility in women globally. In this condition, the ovaries produce an excess amount of male hormones called androgens which hamper the normal functioning of reproductive hormones. This results in irregular menstrual cycles, the presence of multiple cysts on the ovaries, and often weight gain.

Ayurveda considers this condition as a result of deranged Vata and Kapha Dosha predominantly, resulting in an inflammatory swelling called ‘Granthi’. Early diagnosis and Ayurveda treatment helps to reduce the risk of long-term complications, such as type-2 diabetes and infertility.
