  • Reduce the cholesterol and triglyceride intake(in other words cleansing your lipid profile can lift off the excess peripheral fat onto your ovarian region) thereby restoring healthy menstrual cycles.

  • Be regular with screening examinations aimed at testing for glucose tolerance, lipid profile, blood pressure and sleep apnea. 

Sample treatment plan of action:

Day 1 to day 15

In the initial stage patients are administered: 

  • Triphala kwacha [30ml].
  • Chandraprabha[2pills].
  • 5gms of manibhadra powder. 

These are administered for the elimination of toxins and general purification of the body.

Day 15 to 4th month 

In Stage 2 patients are treated with:

  • Shatavari [asparagus]
  • Shatapushpa [peucedanum graveloens]
  • Guduchi [tinospora cordifolia with Krishna jeeraka] 

Twice a day in the morning and evening. Treatment is aimed at improving follicular maturity, immune responses, stabilize hormonal influence and menstrual irregularity

4th month to 6th month

In stage 3 patients are treated with:

  • 5 grams of atibala powder
  • 4 pills of rasayana kalpa [a concoction of ancient botanicals as recommended by ayurvedic experts] 

This is the last stage of the treatment plan and aimed towards removal of unwanted follicles and avoid miscarriage.

Metfoemin, Glucophage and fortamet are medications that help regulate the insulin levels and control their spike whilst accelerating you towards wellness. These medications are significant as abnormalities in insulin secretion directly affect the release of reproductive hormones.

An amalgamation of gonadotrophins and birth control pills can help you with the symptoms and can control your Thyroid Stimulating Hormone levels.

However, one of the downsides of allopathic treatment is that it doesn’t address and aim to correct the root causes. Resultant in probable reoccurrence of the disease with aggravated symptoms is common in many patients.
