This case report describes the management of adenomyosis using Ayurvedic interventions in a single patient presenting with menstrual-associated pain and variable bleeding, reflecting adenomyosis defined as endometrium invading the myometrium. The treatment regimen included Kanchnar guggulu, Patrangasav, Ashokaritha, and Matra basti, which the authors state was useful for symptom relief. The paper’s main limitation is that it is an uncontrolled case report with no described comparison group or quantified outcome measures. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis — an Ayurvedic treatment case report targeting adenomyosis symptoms.

Abstract

Adenomyosis is a very common condition of invasion of endometrium into the myometrium with endometrial glands and stroma. It is commonly presented with a benign growth and uterus is enlarged. The patient presents with the symptoms like pain (may be chronic or acute) associated with menstruation and variable bleeding pattern. It is a great challenge to treat adenomyosis and hysterectomy has been the only way to treat it. Ayurveda can give a better relief to patient. In this case study, treatment with Kanchnar guggulu, Patrangasav, Ashokaritha and Matra basti has been found useful.
