What could be done to normalize irregular periods?

Question

Hi doctor,

I am 42-years-old. Over the past few months, my periods have become irregular. It is on time for a few months, and sometimes, I do not get it for two to three months. Though I get periods-like symptoms during the cycle when periods are due, I do not get my periods. I feel very bloated when the cycle is delayed. Ultrasound shows no abnormalities. I have taken tablet Thyronorm 25 mcg since my last pregnancy three years ago. TSH levels are within the normal range. Kindly suggest a remedy for regularizing my periods.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I just read your query.

If all investigations are normal then I suggest you take the following medicines for one month. This will help you with your problem. I suggest you continue taking your thyroid medications.

I suggest the following:

1. Tablet Raj parvartini vati (Kanya (Aloe vera), Kaseesa (Purified blue vitriole), Tankana (borax)) one tablet two times a day with water after food for one month.

2. Aloe vera juice one tablespoon with an equal amount of water two times a day after food for one month.

3. Syrup Evecare (Ashoka, Dashamoola, Lodhra) two teaspoons with water after food for one month. Consult your doctor and take the medicines accordingly.

4. Do walk daily at least for 30 to 60 minutes a day.

5. Do not take curd or buttermilk after the evening time.

6. Avoid excessive intake of tea, coffee, or cold drinks if you do.

Follow these points regularly and wait for the next cycle. Stop taking your medicine when your periods arrive. Consult a nearby Ayurveda physician after one month regarding improvement and for further management.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read your query.

I suggest you continue these medicines for the next cycle. Stop taking these medications when your periods arrive. You can restart taking Syrup Evecare and Aloe vera juice in the same quantity as suggested earlier. On the 22nd day of your cycle, you can restart the Tablet Raj parivartini vati in the dose of one tablet two times a day with water after food till your periods start. When your periods come then stop taking this tablet. Continue all the lifestyle changes as advised earlier. It will help you in the regularization of your periods.

As you have been taking thyroid medicines regularly, I will not suggest you to leave them. But I suggest you to add Tablet Giloy (Tinospora Cordifolia) to your daily regimen. Take Tablet Giloy one tablet two times a day with water after food for one month. It will help you maintain your normal thyroid hormone levels.

Once your periods get regular then I suggest stopping that medicine and adding some more medicine for the maintenance of your thyroid hormone levels. Consult me after you get your period. Also, share your recent thyroid function test reports and the reports of any other investigations if done.

Wishing you good health and happiness.

Thank you.
