Her Story

The Struggle

Aishwarya was suffering from PCOD, irregular and very painful periods and hormonal issues since the past 5 years. Her periods were always late, sometimes the cycle going upto 2 months. This was causing her to be stressed, she was gaining weight and growing acne on her face. This was severely affecting her confidence. Her energy levels were out of rhythm and she was overly reliant on caffeine to get her through the day. She tried an allopathic approach and was on hormone pills but that only caused her to increase her weight but her periods didn't feel better. Finally fed up and not wanting to take hormone pills forever, she decided to approach natural healing. And that's when she came to Thavira.

Daily Symptoms

  • She suffered from irregular periods sometimes going up to 2 months a cycle.
  • Bloating, Acne, feeling heavy and sluggish throughout the day. Energy levels would crash in the evening.
  • She was gaining weight and her face was becoming puffy and bloated.
  • There was constant brain fog, confusion and her memory felt unreliable.
  • There was low motivation to do anything which led to procrastination.
  • The periods were also very painful and she would be completely incapacitated during her periods.

The Breaking Point

She was on hormone pills for 2 years and nothing improved, all that happened was she gained weight and the moment she stopped the pills, her cycles went haywire again. She wanted to fix this issue permanently without relying on any medication for it.

Our Assessment

What We Discovered

We discovered that her symptoms were because of a sluggish liver which was not processing the hormones properly and because of a dysregulated gut-hormone axis balance. This was causing poor processing and production of necessary hormones for the cycles to stabilize

Root Causes Identified

  • Poor estrogen clearance, dysregulated gut-hormone axis due to poor lifestyle habits and diet patterns, caffeine was dysregulating her circadian rhythm leading to unstable recovery.
  • Diet was mainly carb-rich leading to increased insulin and pre-diabetic stage as well.

Doctor's Analysis

Addressing her hormones would give temporary relief but for long term relief - we need to fix the liver, and improve the gut environment along with the lifestyle and diet so that the foundation which is responsible for proper hormone regulation is balanced. Once we fix that, the hormones will regulate by themselves

Treatment Protocol

Phase 1: Fixing the base

  • We introduced a gut friendly diet and kept her on a low carb intake. We introduced liver support herbs and powerful anti-oxidants to reverse the damage caused by free radicals due to pre-diabetes.
  • Along with that we also started her on necessary seed cycling to ensure proper hormone signalling.

Phase 2: Signalling the hormones

  • Now that the liver was ready to process hormones properly, we started with natural therapies through acupressure and hydrotherapy to improve the blood flow and signal the hormones to start moving.
  • Proper lifestyle habits and eating patterns ensured that the circadian rhythm and gut-hormone axis was properly regulated.
  • Along with this, we started her on some hormone balancing functional medicines.

Phase 3: Stabilization

  • Her levels reached under control limits, Her painful periods had reduced significantly, she could tolerate the pain and it was becoming manageable.
  • Proper nutrition ensured that her body is not deficient in any necessary element needed.
  • Along with that due to proper hormone signalling by the end of phase 3, her weight had reduced by 3 kgs. She felt lighter and confident about herself.

Daily Routine

Warm meals at fixed timings, fibre-rich diet, limited caffeine, pelvic yoga, acupressure practice, hydrotherapy sessions, breathwork, early dinners, and consistent sleep-wake rhythm.

Her Journey

Week 2: Digestive Ease

Bloating reduced. Bowels started moving with less effort. Lower abdomen felt lighter.

Week 4-5: Breakthrough Moment

Major reduction in PMS bloating and constipation. Felt clear relaxation in the pelvic region.

Month 2: Hormonal Rhythm Emerging

Energy improved. Mood swings softened. Digestion smooth and predictable.

Month 3: Cycle Stability

Periods became regular and predictable. PMS minimal. Body rhythm felt aligned again.

Life After Treatment

6 Months Later

Aishwarya informed us during our follow up, that her periods were stable now. She was getting a cycle every month which she felt was an amazing change, especially now her period cramps were not as painful as before. Her acne was gone and she felt confident about herself because her excess fat was also coming under control.

In Her Own Words

“I was fed up with hormone pills, and I had accepted that I will always have these irregular cycles. I would even joke about it often. But the period pain was intolerable for me, which is why I needed some solution for it. I didn't want to keep taking painkillers all the time. So when I approached Thavira, they kept me on diets and supplements - which while I was doubtful at first, they explained the mechanism of how it works very nicely. And I myself was surprised to see the improvement by the end of the treatment. I never expected that I would get a period every month, but here I am now. It feels amazing frankly. Thanks Team Thavira.”

What Aishwarya Still Does

  • Warm, fibre-rich meals
  • Limited caffeine intake
  • Pelvic yoga and breathwork
  • PMS-preventive routine before cycles
  • Consistent daily rhythm and sleep
