2 वायु तत्व- लंबा गहरा स्वाँस अंदर भरें और रुकें फिर पूरे तरीक़े से स्वाँस को ख़ाली करें रुकें फिर स्वाँस अंदर भरें ये एक चक्र हुआ। ऐसे 10 चक्र एक टाइम पर करना है। ये दिन में चार बार करें।I

3 अग्नि तत्व- सूरर्य उदय के एक घंटे बाद या सूर्य अस्त के एक घंटे पहले का धूप शरीर को ज़रूर लगाएँ। सर और आँख को किसी सूती कपड़े से ढक कर। जब भी लेंटे अपना दायाँ भाग ऊपर करके लेटें ताकि आपकी सूर्य नाड़ी सक्रिय रहे।

Hi Moukthika Neelamraju, 

We do understand your concern about PCOD. Women-health related issues such as PCOD, unhealthy / unexplained weight gain or cyst etc. are often linked to hormonal imbalance. We would like to draw your attention to the Nature Cure perspective on the same.

Nature Cure believes that the root cause of most diseases/health conditions is Toxaemia- the accumulation of toxins within the body.  While some toxins are an output of metabolism, others are added due to unnatural lifestyle- wrong food habits, lack of rest and stress. Nature has equipped us with the measures of eliminating the toxins on a regular basis - through breathing, stool, urine, sweat, mucus depositions in nose, eyes and genitals etc. Whenever there is toxic overload due to insufficient or faulty elimination our body tries to throw out the toxins in the form of Flu, Loose-motions, cough, cold, fever, skin rashes and acute pain. Periods are regulated by hormones - estrogen & progesterone. If there is a toxic overload on the body, it can prevent the hormones from performing their routine functions.

Your can reverse this state of imbalance & reduce weight naturally by getting back in sync with the natural laws of living. You can enroll in our Holistic Weight Loss Coaching Program our Natural Health Coach can look into you routine in a more comprehensive way and give you an action plan. Shifting to a natural lifestyle will also help you deal with all your other health issues. 

For queries regarding the program you can contact our teammates: 9238611952 (Sanjana), 9411817885 (Neha).

Go for accupressure or healing techniques

Polycystic ovary disease (PCOD) is a condition that creates an imbalance in a woman's hormone levels. Here in this condition, women produce higher levels of male hormones which might make the women skip the menstrual periods, which is why you would see irregular menstrual periods in women who suffer from this condition. PCOD and Obesity go hand in hand and it is very essential to handle both problems simultaneously.

This condition is caused by insulin resistance, some genetical history or due to inflammation in the ovaries.

Symptoms like irregular periods, abnormal hair growth, acne, weight gain, male pattern of baldness, darkening of skin and headaches are common in this condition.

Lifestyle modification and diet along with Yoga therapy could play a vital role in the management of this condition.

A low glycemic index and low carb diet consumption have shown very good results. Some research studies have elicited this fact.

Yoga therapy if taken under a trained Yoga therapist could be beneficial as well.

A healthful PCOD diet can also include the following foods:

• Natural, unprocessed foods. avoid junk foods and carbonated drinks.
• High-fiber foods.
• Avoid non-vegetarian foods, oily, garam masalas, 
• Kale, spinach, and other dark, leafy greens.
• Dark red fruits, such as red grapes, blueberries, blackberries, and cherries.
• Broccoli and cauliflower.

Specific Diet Plan To Tackle Weight Increase

Consume a high-protein breakfast. Don't skip a meal or food for breakfast in the name of dieting.

•   Avoid sugared drinks and artificial or synthetic fruit juices. 
•  Consume a lot of dietary fibers that are rich in fruits and vegetables.
• Stop coffee, tea, alcohol, social drugs, and sedentary lifestyle habits.
• Drink lots of water.
• Exercise at least an hour if possible. Alternative you may walk one side to your work if it is less than 2 kilometers or use stairs while you climb down instead of the lift.
• Cut down on sweets, oils, ghee, and non-vegetarian diet.
•  Avoid drinking water during meals.
• Cut down your calorie intake and increase your calorie burn up.
• Eat your food in very slowly and properly.

What I presume is that the Yoga that you practice might not be the right one, maybe I would suggest you take suggestions or reviewed through a trained Yoga Therapist or Naturopath which could be of great use. PCOD works well or could be managed efficiently through the practice of Yoga which research studies have proven this fact.
