​Why Yoga is beneficial than Gym for PCOS women

​PCOS is still a puzzle for many. The name, definition, causes are unknown and solutions are still symptoms based. I see PCOS as a mind-body disease. PCOS requires a holistic mind-body approach; corrections in lifestyle, and involvement of Yoga rather than just focusing on symptoms based outcomes. There is growing evidence that practice of Yoga on regular basis can help solve the PCOS puzzle more efficiently than other forms of physical activity.  Read this article form Vibhuti Rao, to know how Yoga can help your PCOS symptoms. 

World is filled with people with diabetes and obesity. There is another chronic issue taking lead and that is Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. Many young girls as young as 14 years have PCOS. The scary statistics point out on dire need of solutions for PCOS.  And the number is constantly increasing, especially among our urban population. Girls living in metro city are facing problems relate to PCOS- weight gain, irregular periods, facial hairs, and also infertility.
Do not get confuse with its name.  It is not only something wrong with your ovaries. Do not blame hormones alone. I personally believe that it is all about insulin resistance among Indians. And PCOS is a lifestyle chronic health condition. So, you have been doing something not correct from past few years before you get the symptoms of PCOS.  So, along with Ayurvedic medicines, which are safe and effective, I advise my PCOS girls to practice Yoga daily for 20 minutes. 

​Why Yoga is better than Gym for PCOS women?- This is a common question women ask me. And I strongly suggest them to practice Yoga than sweating out in gym.  And I am sure you too would agree with my points for saying so. Gym will work on your physical body but not your mind- not your hormones. So you need Yoga for better results in PCOS. Read further.
Yoga, originated in India is now spreaded all over the world due to its various health benefits. This science focuses on bringing a balance between body and mind to achieve absolute bliss and is proved to positively impact on subjective well-being.
PCOS is a mid-body disease. PCOS is a group of disorders and not a single disease. Moreover, the pathology and diagnosis criteria are still debatable and on constant reforming. This throws a challenge to physicians to successfully treat this syndrome. Clearly, PCOS is a result of metabolic disturbances along with hormonal imbalances.

Moreover, yoga’s benefits for women with PCOS are not limited to the body alone, but its all-rounder therapy. One of the definitions of “yoga” is “to unite” – and modern yoga practice unites body, mind, breath, and spirit. Yoga is much deeper than just the physical body level. Yoga helps to release deeply stored stress in the system, which can help improve PCOS symptoms. The first step in PCOS yogic management is to balance weight and stress levels.

So get your Yoga pants on!
