The week before your period, do you sometimes feel like a completely different person?
- Short-tempered in ways that surprise even you.
- Exhausted despite sleeping.
- Bloated and heavy and uncomfortable in your own skin.
- Crying at things that wouldn't usually move you.
- Dreading the bleed before it's even begun.
This isn't a weakness. This isn't "just hormones" in a dismissive sense. This is your body, under stress, trying to get through a process it's struggling to complete smoothly.
PMS is real. It's physiological. And it is not something you're supposed to simply endure every single month for decades.
In Ayurveda, the days before menstruation are understood as a vulnerable, high-vata phase, where the nervous system is more reactive, digestion is more sensitive, and the body needs more grounding, more warmth, more rest.
When that's not happening, when life keeps moving at full speed, and the body doesn't get what it needs, PMS becomes the symptom.
Mood swings, cramps, bloating, brain fog, heavy bleeding, these are not separate problems. They're different expressions of the same underlying imbalance.
Dr. Sahaj Shah, MS (Ayu), and Dr. Pranita Shah, MD (Ayu), specialise in helping women understand and address that root imbalance, with personalised Ayurvedic protocols that work with your body, not against it.
