Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have been taking Kalarchikai with pepper and honey after a meal for the past five days for a PCOS problem. But I started to have an abdominal cramps and thigh pain (similar to the cramps that occurs during menstruation). What can I do now?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Kalarchikai (Caesalpinia Bonducella) is a well-known medicine to manage PCOD (polycystic ovarian diseases). It does not show any side effects when taken under a prescription of ayurvedic or Siddha physicians. You should take 0.11 oz twice a day after meals. The pain you have now can be a premenstrual pain. Wait for a few days and stop taking this choornam for a few days. After a week, you can start taking it in a recommended dose.
