A METICULOUS ASSESSMENT OF AN AYURVEDIC CASE STUDY ON ENDOMETRIOSIS MANAGEMENT

A METICULOUS ASSESSMENT OF AN AYURVEDIC CASE STUDY ON ENDOMETRIOSIS MANAGEMENT Description Endometriosis is a chronic and progressive gynaecological condition that affects millions of women worldwide. Endometriosis affects roughly 10% of reproductive age women and girls globally.[7] Endometriosis is characterised by presence of functioning endometrium in sites other than uterine mucosa, in which 25% patient were asymptomatic; whereas the symptoms of endometriosis were related to site of lesion and also on the response of hormones. As cyclic hormones both stimulates and supresses the growth. In Ayurveda, endometriosis is associated with Vataja Yonivyapada, a condition arising from an imbalance of Vata dosha that impacts the reproductive system. The aggravation of Vata dosha disrupts the normal positioning of body tissues, leading to the displacement of endometrial tissue beyond the uterus. Modern conventional treatments involve hormonal therapies and surgical interventions, which may not always provide lasting relief and can have significant side effects. As a result, there is growing interest in alternative approaches, which is Ayurvedic medicine, for managing endometriosis. A review of Ayurvedic Samhita, modern text books, web sources and previous researches were used to collect data. References to Endometriosis in classical Ayurveda texts are limited, as there is no direct description of it. This study aims to compile research and conceptual evidence to correlate Endometriosis with similar diseases described in Ayurveda, along with their respective treatments. By identifying these parallels, we can establish an effective treatment approach and enhance the success of Ayurvedic management for Endometriosis. This article explores the efficacy of Ayurvedic interventions for Endometriosis and compares various therapeutic approaches.
