ABSTRACT

Infertility is included under non communicable diseases, which possess significant physical, psychological, social and financial burden on the couples who are affected with the same. Among the factors causing infertility endometrial abnormalities plays an important role. Endometrium is important as a receptive endometrium with an adequate thickness of minimum 7 mm is essential for the implantation of blastocyst. Low endometrial thickness is one of the most important challenging factor, even Artificial Reproductive Techniques (ART) like IVF fails if the endometrium is not supportive for proper implantation resulting in either infertility or early pregnancy loss. In contemporary system hormonal therapies and invasive procedures are used for treating infertility. Many of these have found to be less effective. Majority of patients could not afford the cost of these artificial reproductive techniques. In Ayurveda there is no direct correlation of thin endometrium. Increased rooksha guna of vata, ushna teekshna guna of pitha along with dhatvagnimandya resulting in arthava dhatu kshaya leads to thin endometrium, ultimately results in vandyathwam. Ayurveda therapy has been widely used in the management of female infertility as an effective, natural, safe, and cost-effective method. This study is conducted to evaluate the effect of Dhatryadi Ghrita in improving thin endometrium in female infertility. Study design is pre and post interventional study with sample size 15. Participants of the study are infertile females who are diagnosed with thin endometrium satisfying the selection criteria of endometrial thickness (7 mm & less than 7 mm) around ovulation. Prepared medicine will be dispensed through OPD in 200ml container and instructions will be given to use daily 24 ml of two equal divided dose in morning and evening with hot water as anupana for 90 days. Results will be analysed at the end of treatment by follicular study up to the time of ovulation.

ABSTRACT

 Dysmenorrhea, painful menstruation of sufficient magnitude so as to incapacitate day today activities, is one of the most common gynaecological disorder in young women; especially teenagers.  Dysmenorrhea is of two types- Primary and Secondary dysmenorrhea. Primary dysmenorrhea is one where there is no identifiable pelvic pathology. It is mostly confined to ovulatory cycles. The pain is related to dysrhythmic uterine contractions and uterine hypoxia. According to Ayurveda, vata vikriti is the main cause of pain. Apanavata is concerned with expulsion of sukra, artava, sakrut, mutra and garbha. Viguna apana vata causes Yonivyapath. Among the 20 yonivyapath, primary dysmenorrhoea may be included under udawartha, which is characterized by painful and difficult expulsion of menstrual blood due to viguna vata. According to Charaka samhitha the aggravated vatha moves in reverse direction fills the garbhasaya, seizes with pain and discharges arthava rakta with great difficulty. Considering the above facts Gandharvahastha eranda tailam mentioned in Bhaishajya ratnavali vridhi chikitsa and Gandharvahasthadi kashaya  mentioned in vatharoga chikitsa of Sahasrayoga are taken for the study.The drugs in Gandharvahasthadi kashaya yoga have ushnaveerya, deepana , vatha anulomana and vatha kapha hara property which is needed for udavartha condition.Eranda is told as agrya vathahara oushada by acharya Charaka.
