Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have PCOD. Actually, I am taking Kalarchikai with pepper in the morning and evening. Can I take this during the ovulation period because I am trying to conceive? I am also takin Metformin.

Answered by Dr. Alka

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

You did not mention how long have you been taking this medicine and whether you are also taking allopathic treatment. For how long have you been trying to conceive?

1. As this medicine has very good effects on PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome), but also reduces blood sugar levels and you are already taking metformin, so monitor your blood sugar level regularly.

2. Ideally the medicine is given once a day for 90 days or for three consecutive cycles. The medicine should be taken regularly but stop taking it during periods. If your three or more cycles are normal, then stop taking it.

3. If periods are normal then try on the 11th to 14th day of the cycle. These are the ovulation days.

4. Take healthy and fresh food. Have fresh fruits and vegetables daily. Take care of your husband's diet too. Do exercise daily.

5. If you are seeking further help regarding conception, then do share your and your husband's reports and previous medical history too.

I hope you are satisfied with my answer.

Thank you.
