Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in women. Conventional medicine treats it with contraceptives to force a "withdrawal bleed", but this doesn't fix the underlying hormonal chaos.
At Lucknow Naturopathy Center, we treat PCOS as a whole-body issue involving Insulin Resistance, Adrenal Stress, and Liver Health. Our goal is to make your body ovulate naturally.
Symptoms & Signs
PCOS affects every woman differently, but common signs include:
Menstrual Irregularities
- Periods coming every 45-60 days or more.
- Scanty blood flow or heavy clotting.
- Complete absence of periods (Amenorrhea).
Physical Changes
- Weight gain (especially around the belly).
- Acne and oily skin.
- Unwanted facial hair (chin/upper lip).
- Darkening of skin on neck (Acanthosis Nigricans).
The Root Causes
Insulin Resistance
High insulin levels stimulate the ovaries to produce Testosterone instead of Estrogen. This stops the egg from maturing, leading to cysts.
Chronic Inflammation
Poor diet and toxins cause low-grade inflammation, which disrupts hormonal communication.
Stress & Adrenal Fatigue
Stress hormones compete with progesterone. High stress leads to "Adrenal PCOS" where the adrenal glands produce excess male hormones.
Our PCOS Reversal Protocol
We use a 4-step approach to restore hormonal balance:
1. Fertility Yoga
Boosting circulation to the reproductive organs.
- Butterfly Pose (Baddha Konasana): Opens up the pelvic region.
- Chakki Chalanasana: Tones the uterus and reproductive organs.
- Surya Namaskar: Crucial for weight loss in PCOS.
2. Seed Cycling
Natural Hormone Replacement.
- Day 1-14 (Follicular Phase): 1 tbsp Flax seeds + 1 tbsp Pumpkin seeds daily. (Boosts Estrogen).
- Day 15-28 (Luteal Phase): 1 tbsp Sesame seeds + 1 tbsp Sunflower seeds daily. (Boosts Progesterone).
3. Detox Therapies
Cleaning the system.
- Mud Pack on Abdomen: Reduces ovarian inflammation.
- Hip Bath: Improves blood flow to the ovaries and uterus.
4. PCOS Diet
Low GI, Anti-inflammatory.
- Avoid: Dairy (contains hormones), Sugar, White Rice.
- Eat: Cinnamon (improves insulin sensitivity), Spearmint Tea (lowers testosterone), Leafy Greens.
