Mrs Indrani Bagchi,

The Nutrition Nurturer

Ms. Indrani Bagchi, a dedicated teacher of nutrition, once faced a personal battle that tested her resilience and reshaped her understanding of health. Just before menopause, she experienced heavy, irregular bleeding that confined her to her home and dimmed her vibrant spirit.

Her journey from desperation to renewal inspires women everywhere to seek smarter, safer paths to wellness.
Her Courageous Journey

Wisdom beyond symptoms

Ms. Bagchi tried various oral medications and hormonal therapies for years to control her bleeding, which had become so severe she avoided public transport and even her beloved school.

These treatments took a heavy toll, damaging her liver significantly and leaving her anaemic.

As a mother, she worried deeply about her daughter witnessing womanhood through such suffering, fearing it might taint her child’s view of femininity.

When she came to us in desperation, we listened carefully over many hours. Following international guidelines for women over 40, we prioritised finding the root cause over merely masking symptoms. Despite her delicate liver condition making anaesthesia risky, we proceeded with hysteroscopy, a camera examination of her uterus.

This revealed the best path: targeted hormone therapy placed directly inside the uterus.

A Smarter Path to Relief

This approach bypassed her liver entirely, allowing the hormone to act precisely where needed without systemic harm. Her liver function recovered remarkably, her anaemia improved, and she returned to teaching with renewed energy. No longer homebound, she now travels freely and shares her joy with students through vibrant, healthy meals like her signature salad bowl.

Nourishing Mind and Body

Salad wisdom for modern women Ms. Bagchi’s nutrition expertise shines in her carefully crafted salads, free of phytoestrogens, those plant-based compounds that can disrupt hormones and even trigger hormone-sensitive cancers if overconsumed. Her bowl bursts with rainbow colours and fibre-rich goodness, reminding us that even “natural” foods demand scientific scrutiny. Plants hold hidden risks, but informed choices bring true health.
She teaches us that after 40, oral hormones for bleeding carry avoidable side effects. Targeted treatments preserve vitality while safeguarding the body.

A Teacher’s Lasting Lesson

Ms. Bagchi proves that suffering need not define womanhood. Her story urges women to question outdated “old school” thinking, embrace precise diagnostics, and choose liver-friendly solutions. Through her classroom and kitchen, she spreads hope: health reclaimed through knowledge is the greatest nourishment of all.

✍🏽 This is my Tribute to her.

Thank you, Ms. Bagchi, for inspiring healthier choices and a scientific outlook on women’s wellness. Your salad bowl reminds us all to eat with wisdom and live with joy.
Regards Dr Manas Chakrabarti
