PCOS / PCOD, Irregular Periods & Hormonal Imbalance Treatment in Amroha

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS, often called PCOD) is one of the most common hormonal conditions in women of reproductive age. It can cause irregular periods, weight gain, acne, excess facial hair and difficulty conceiving, and it is linked to insulin resistance.

At Hashmi Dawakhana, Amroha, our hakims combine Unani medicine with diet and lifestyle change - the foundation of PCOS care. We also see women for irregular periods, painful periods and hormonal imbalance, in a private and comfortable setting.

How Unani medicine approaches it

Unani medicine relates PCOS-like symptoms to retention of menstrual blood (ihtibas-e-tams), coldness and congestion of the uterus, and imbalance of temperament. Treatment aims to regulate the cycle, reduce congestion and support metabolism.

Lifestyle change is central: our hakims give a practical diet and activity plan alongside individually prescribed Unani formulations, and we review ultrasound and hormone reports where available.

  • Individually prescribed Unani formulations to regulate periods
  • PCOS-friendly diet: fewer refined carbs and sugar, more fibre and protein
  • Activity and weight-management plan
  • Painful periods treatment and care for heavy bleeding where appropriate
  • Guidance for women trying to conceive

Frequently asked questions

PCOS is a long-term condition that is managed rather than switched off. Unani treatment, together with diet, exercise and weight management, may help regulate periods and other symptoms. A personal assessment comes first.

The terms are often used interchangeably in India. Both describe a hormonal condition with irregular ovulation and polycystic-looking ovaries on ultrasound.

Treatment depends on the cause - PCOS, thyroid problems, stress, weight change or other conditions. After assessment, the hakim plans Unani treatment and lifestyle changes suited to you.
