PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) / PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Disease) is one of the most common hormonal disorders affecting women today. It impacts menstrual health, fertility, metabolism, and overall well-being. Women suffering from PCOS/PCOD often experience irregular periods, weight gain, acne, and emotional stress, which can affect both physical and mental health. At Purshveda, we treat PCOS/PCOD not just as a hormonal disorder but as a holistic imbalance of body, mind, and lifestyle, offering natural and personalized Ayurvedic solutions for long-term healing.
What is PCOS / PCOD Treatment?
PCOS / PCOD is a condition where the ovaries produce an excess amount of androgens (male hormones), leading to hormonal imbalance and irregular ovulation. It is important to understand that occasional irregular periods can happen due to stress or lifestyle changes, but PCOS/PCOD is:
- Persistent over time
- Associated with hormonal imbalance
- Affecting menstrual cycle and fertility
- Impacting overall physical and emotional health
An individualized PCOD treatment plan may focus on managing symptoms, supporting healthy lifestyle habits, and addressing contributing metabolic, hormonal, and reproductive health factors.

- Irregular or missed periods
- Excessive weight gain (especially around abdomen)
- Acne and oily skin
- Excess hair growth on face or body (hirsutism)
- Hair thinning or hair fall
- Difficulty in conceiving
- Mood swings and anxiety
- Low energy and fatigue
- Dark patches on skin (neck, underarms)

Ayurvedic Perspective, Causes & Treatment
According to Ayurveda, PCOS/PCOD is associated with imbalance of Vata, Pitta, and Kapha doshas, along with disturbance in Artava Dhatu (female reproductive tissue) and weak digestive fire (Agni).
Ayurvedic Causes
- Weak digestion (Mandagni)
- Accumulation of toxins (Ama)
- Kapha imbalance leading to cyst formation
- Vata imbalance affecting menstrual cycle
- Stress and mental disturbance
- Improper diet and sedentary lifestyle
