          Infertility evaluation begins after recording the complete history of the patients. A complete physical examination of both man and wife is advised. Urine test, nadi pariksha (pulse examination), menstrual fluid test, details about menstrual cycle (which can point out to problems such as PCOS), and severe dysmenorrhoea (suggesting endometriosis or genital infection), pelvic surgeries etc., help the doctors reach at a diagnosis. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          According to the individuals\u2019 body constitution, a detoxifying program is adopted to eliminate the accumulated toxins. The aim of this treatment is to transport toxic substances that are clogged in different parts of the body to places where it can be easily expelled via natural body opening. A preliminary detoxifying therapy helps the patients improve their metabolic activity of the liver and get rid of few causative factors.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          When kapha dosha impairs, body tends to put on weight and results in obesity, which turns out to be a causative factor for PCOS.

So, the detoxifying therapy is a good pre-treatment procedure for balancing all the doshas, to their appropriate levels.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00a0 \u00a0 Balanced diet<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

          Fat are not necessarily bad. But a high intake of fat has been linked with an increased risk of PCOS, because it contributes to the development of obesity and overweight. Also it takes a toll on hormonal system. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          As PCOS is a hormonal disorder, take care in the consumption of fats. Resorting to healthy fats like omega 3 will be good. Also avoiding red meat and trans fat helps to put hormones in order.<\/span><\/span><\/span>2<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n

          Exercise regularly 5 days a week.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n

          Regular physical activity in combination with a healthy diet is beneficial at improving fertility and insulin in women with PCOS. Remember too much exercise will give physical stress. Following a mild pattern in exercise keeps one fit and removes excess calories and fat.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          Stay away from stress.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n

          What many doctors may not tell about PCOS is stress. It leads to production of stress hormones at high level, which leads to chaos in normal hormonal function. Remember Stress alone can cause anovulatory cycles. Flushing the toxic emotions prevents one from stress.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          Increase fiber intake.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n
          \"fiber
          Fiber rich foods.<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

          Body needs fibre every day. According to daily dietary requirement, women need 25 to 30 grams of fiber per day. But due to fast pace lifestyle current dietary fiber intake is less than 15 grams. To women with PCOS fiber lowers blood glucose and estrogen levels, while for normal women it prevents them from insulin resistance. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          Taking plant based foods ensures required fiber for body which animal based foods doesn\u2019t have.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          Reduce over weight.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n

          Being overweight can cause PCOS and having PCOS will result in obesity. So in both case working on reducing weight is beneficial. Taking a balanced diet rich in vegetables and non sweet fruits loaded with vitamins keeps one fit. Practicing yoga also reduces body weight especially doing suryanamaskar few reps a day keeps hormonal system in harmony.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

                All the Tamil explanations and definitions made are based on the Siddha literature. We have used terminologies and definitions from modern medicine in order to help the readers absorb the right essence. Siddha literatures are thousands of years old that were postulated, based on then existed scenarios. The postulates framed then, may or may not be in coherence to today\u2019s world, because as humans have travelled a long path of evolution. Such evaluations have rendered immense changes to humans mentally and physically.
