Case Study # 1

She is a successful manager with a multi-national company and 2 months back got promoted with a good salary hike. Everything was good till the time she started having problem with her period dates. She is 35 years and a mother of 1. The date is getting delayed by more than 2 months many times and when it happens it caused unbearable pain. Situation turned so worst that she was forced to take leave from her office during those days and this is generating huge problem in her professional life as the cause in unexplainable for her to management. She started getting depressed and irritated about the problem. She could not concentrate on her work and that hot noticed by her boss. She discussed the whole matter with her elder sister and she took her to our clinic.

When she visited our clinic she was feeling bit shy to start discussion. We started the interaction in a casual note about her job and what she likes and dislikes in life.  This way she felt bit normal and explained the whole issue slowly. She was actually suffering from heavy period and that too with huge time gap. During this time she used to feel extreme fatigue and lethargic towards doing any work because of back and stomach pain. For us such cases are very common and asked her to go for some hormonal tests.

Looking at her face we noticed that she is abnormally pale which we predicted to be a reason of being anemic which again impacts menstruation. Keeping her age in mind we also observed that there can be chance of hormonal dis-balance in the body which happens due to over stress and work pressure. But it was not right to comment on any case till be have the reports in our hand.

She underwent all tests and met us back on next weekend. We went through the report and found both our observation were correct in her case. She is anemic and above that going under depression due to stress and work pressure. We explained her thing and confirmed that she will be 100% fine only if she follows our instructions. She promised to do so.  We gave her hormonal pills to bring balance in the body and suggested pranayam yoga steps to remove stress and anxiety and bring positivity in life. We strictly recommend 30 mins walk in the morning for breathing fresh air. We asked her to meet us after 6 months. Well before this time within 4 months of our treatment we get a call for her and she said life is back in track.

Case Study # 2

Vandana is a 30 years young lady working with a reputed IT company. She earns a good salary and is completely satisfied with her life. Last 2 months she started facing a problem with her period dates. She has experienced a huge gap in the period dates that delayed even for more than 2 months and when it happens, she experiences unbearable pain. Her pain forced her to take leaves that caused a problem in office life also. It was hard for her to explain the reason for the frequent leaves and his boss was irritated. Even she was also depressed and irritated with the problem. Her work quality was also affected by this and overall performance was dipped in last few months. After trying everything, she discussed the Menstrual Disorders with her friend and decided to visit our clinic.

On her visit to our clinic, she was shy and was not able to discuss the problem deeply. We started behaving friendly and assured her to keep the entire treatment confidential from others. Once she gained confidence, she disclosed the entire matter that helped us to analyse and diagnose the problem more effectively. She is facing Menstrual Disorders that cause a huge gap in periods with heavy pain. At this time she feels extreme fatigue and lethargic along with stomach and back pain. We suggested her some hormonal test that cleared us the issue more precisely.

On the first visit we noticed that her face is pale and this can be the major reason for her being anaemic. This mostly affects the menstruation and we also noticed that there can be some other hormonal reasons for this medical condition. The major reason for the hormonal dis-balance can be due to the workload, night shift and diet problem. So we decided to go for the medical test and then star medication based on the real facts and reason for the problem.

We performed all the tests and asked her to visit next week for the treatment. After analysis of the report, the major reason for the Menstrual Disorders was cleared and was due to the work pressure, depression and unusual working hours. We started the treatment and suggested some pranayam yoga for removing stress, work pressure and asked to prefer the normal working hours. Along with this, we also provided hormonal pills to balance the body and make it healthy once again.

This also took a toll on her studies. She failed to concentrate on studies and got poor marks in her exams where she somehow managed to pass with low grades. She wanted to have regular periods as she knew that irregularity in periods can lead to serious consequences later in her life.

She visited us with her friend. She was extremely thin indicating that she has some eating disorder. She was also looking pale hinting towards anemia. She hesitantly discussed her problem with us. 

We made her comfortable and the discussion lasted for an hour. We knew that her problem is somewhere associated with her eating habits and hence, we pointed out that. We discussed her eating habits and figured out that she is suffering from anorexia, an eating disorder. While discussing the problem with her, we also came to know that of late, she has been dealing with excessive hair fall. We advised her of some hormonal tests and asked her to see us after getting the report.

She came to us with the reports. We found out that she is anemic. Her reports stated hormonal imbalance. We explained to her the consequences of anorexia and asked her to take a healthy diet. We prescribed her some medications to establish hormonal balance. We gave her a diet chart and asked her to strictly follow the diet.

She felt relaxed after a brief interval of time and subsequently narrated her whole experience for the past year. She told that she was depressed because of the untimely menstrual periods, which often got delayed and were heavy and abnormal. She reported that the periods also caused immense pain. Apart from these problems, she said that she also suffered from pain in the back and other areas of the body, which did not allow her to lead a normal, fruitful, and productive life. We had experience in dealing with these kinds of cases before. Hence we asked her to undergo certain clinical and hormonal tests so that the whole picture could be clear.

The tests revealed that she was suffering from certain hormonal misbalances, just as we predicted. She was also anemic to a certain extent. The cause of these problems was a nutrient deficient diet and excessive work and profession stress.

We provided to her certain hormonal pills so that the hormonal balance in our body could be made more stable, optimized, and normal. We also provided to her certain dietary advice and tips and told her to follow yoga asanas, including the Pranayama yoga, for relieving stress and anxiety. We also advised her to take at least a 30-minute brisk walk, and get fresh and open air each day.

Apart from these problems she also witnessed menstrual bleeding outside the menstrual cycle. A physician she knew guided her to our clinic, so that she could overcome this problem.

The patient was very embarrassed and was a bit shy and hesitant to discuss the problem initially. We prompted her towards general discussions and later she opened up. She’s told that these untimely heavy periods were causing her weakness and fatigue and she was also not able to focus on her job responsibilities. The happiness in her personal life was also deteriorating. She said that she wanted to overcome these medical problems soon so that there is no adverse impact on her professional and personal life.

We carried out a thorough medical examination of the patient to know all the details and conditions concerning her mind and body. We carried out a physical examination, as well as told her to undergo certain clinical tests. We found the patient suffering from hormonal imbalances that were caused by excessive stress and workload in her life, and due to the absence of regular exercises and correct dietary choices. The patient was suffering from the disease of Menometrorrhagia, which is a kind of disorder concerning menstrual cycle. The patient was having both irregular blood flows as well as heavy periods from time to time. This disorder of flow affected hundreds of women. We had good expertise in treating these, as many patients that we had earlier treated belonged to this category.

We provided the patient certain Ayurvedic hormonal pills that could restore the hormonal balance of her body without causing any side effects. We told her to choose more healthy foods including the foods that are rich in Iron and told her to follow exercise schedules regularly.

But after that there was a gap of 2 or 3 months for the next cycle to come. She used of have huge bleeding after the delayed cycle and with stomach paon. Life used to be like a hale for the young girl and her condition was also so pathetic that she needs to bunk her school for those days. The number of absent days was increasing in school and one fine day her principal gave a call to her parents. Her mother met her class teacher before meeting the principal as she was not feeling comfortable to discuss the thing with him. Her class teacher took the responsibility to convey the reason of absenteeism to principal.But asked her mom to wait for her still she is back. When she returned she referred the name of us to her mom and asked her to take her to us.

The girl was too young to express the problem and so some blood and pain make her condition really worst. She is totally confused what exactly is happening with her. Her mother shared the problem with us and explained what exactly is happening with her and pathetic the condition of the girl because of irregular period and that too with heavy flow. She was to get her girl out of this pain to lead a normal happy life.

What we understood is that the main reason behind this problem is some hormonal misbalance which is causing the problem. Many are not aware that in the beginning years of periodic cycle many like this girl pass through this problem. The reason is that the body undergoes a change before its gets settle in a regular monthly cycle.

We first asked the little girl to feel stress free as she is not ill because of any disease and this happened with many like her in this age. We gave her some medicine to bring regularity in the cycle. We changed some diet plan and gave some free hand exercise.
