Ayurvedic Understanding of PCOS

Dosha Imbalance: PCOS is often associated with imbalances in the Kapha and Vata doshas. Kapha dosha, can lead to excessive accumulation, heaviness, and sluggishness in the body. Vata dosha, can contribute to irregularities, including erratic menstrual cycles and hormonal fluctuations. For PCOS treatment in Ayurveda, one must balance Kapha and Vata doshas.

Agni (Digestive Fire) Impairment: Ayurveda places a significant emphasis on proper digestion, and when the digestive fire (Agni) is weakened, it can lead to the formation of toxins (ama) and disrupt hormonal balance

Ama Accumulation: The accumulation of ama, or undigested toxins, can clog the channels of the body, including the reproductive system. This can lead to the development of cysts and disrupt the normal functioning of the ovaries.
