My wife has been dealing with an endometriosis cyst for over a year now. We tried allopathy first and then switched to Siddha medicine for the past 9 months it's helped but hasn't fully cured her. I'm wondering if Ayurveda and Siddha use similar treatments or if switching to Ayurveda might give better results. Is there any guarantee that Ayurveda can completely cure it?
