PCOS or Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome is one of the most common reason for irregular periods, infertility, central obesity or weight gain around the centre of the body. It is also the common cause for persistent acne, male type baldness, hair loss and dark pigmentation around the neck which is known as acanthosis nigricans. Ayurveda is extremely effective and there are many ayurvedic herbs and medicines which we use in the treatment of PCOS to get hormonal balance, to get regularity of periods and to get better fertility and regular ovulation. I recommend these five herbs as must haves alongside any treatments that you are taking to make your PCOS management very effective. The first herb is Shathavari. Shathavari is very popular and many people must have heard of this herb while managing PCOS. Shathavari helps in regularising periods. It is excellent for hormonal balance and it helps in reducing hair loss and also helps to have regular ovulation and a good fertility. The second herb I would advice is Ashoka. Like Shathavari this herb is very popular. It is very effective if you have irregular periods and excessive bleeding because of PCOD. Ashoka also helps in improving insulin sensitivity and reducing hair loss. The third herb I would recommend is called Lodhra. Lodhra or Symplocus recemosa is a very powerful herb in improving insulin sensitivity. It is extremely helpful for women who experience heavy and prolonged bleeding due to PCOS. It helps to arrest bleeding very fast. It also enhance fertility and is a must have herb if you are battling PCOS. The third herb I recommend is aloevera. Aloevera can be taken as supplements. Aloevera juice is very popular among people who are suffering from PCOS. Aloevera has multiple benefits. It not only balances hormones. It also helps in improving insulin sensitivity which makes it an ideal herb for even those who are suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus. It helps in making the periods regular if your flow is very less because of PCOS or having oligomenorrhea aloevera is very ideal supplement to improve the flow during menstrual periods. It also improves ovulation and is a must include herb in your PCOS management. The last herb I would recommend is brahmi. Brahmi or Bacopa monnieri is a very popular herb or brain tonic which is used in children for improving academic performance, but is also an excellent herb to include in your PCOS management. Emotional wellness is affected in every women who is suffering from PCOS. That is because hormonal imbalance also affects emotional well being of a women. Including Brahmi is a must during management of PCOS because brahmi being a grain tonic enhances mental well being, improves sleep, allows women to handle mental stress much better and all the emotional ups and downs, depressions, anxiety that are experienced by women are managed much better when we include brahmi in their routine. So Shathavari, Ashoka, Lodhra, Aloevera and Brahmi are the five must have herbs that I would recommend for PCOS management.
