PCOD is a medical condition in which ovaries produce immature or partially matured eggs and it eventually turn in to cysts. In this condition the ovaries usually become enlarged and secretes large number of androgens that can cause problems with woman’s fertility and life. Most common symptoms are irregularities in the menstruation, severe abdominal or back cramps, acne, infertility, hair fall, obesity. According to ayurveda pcod is because of obstruction or upward movement of Vata dosha, the obstruction is because of either kapha or pitta dosha.

In simple words removing the obstruction or changing the direction of vata dosha by ayurvedic treatments and medicines should be administered. In Agasti ayurveda all the treatments are person specific although we structured the treatment of pcod in to 3 stages:

• Panchakarma specific to dosha, deha, dhatu and prakriti of that particular
individual.
• Medicinal follow up and proper diet.
