Abstract

Yoni shuddhata is one among the major fundamentals for a healthy offspring. Twenty types of yonivyapad mentioned in the classics are a major cause in hampering the normalcy of the female reproductive tract. In the present period, pelvic inflammatory disease is a burning problem whose incidences are increasing rapidly. Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a disease of the upper genital tract. It implies infection and inflammation of the upper genital tract organs typically involving the uterus (endometrium), fallopian tubes, ovaries, pelvic peritoneum and surrounding structures. As per ayurvedic classics, this disease can be correlated with paripluta yonivyapad which is the result of vitiated vata and pitta dosha. Hence the present study was conducted to observe the efficacy of krishnadi churna and panchavalkaladi taila pichu in the management of paripluta yonivyapad. The results were assessed on the basis of signs and symptoms described in both, ayurveda as well as modern medicine like shroni vedana, prishthashula, sparshakshama, abnormal vaginal discharge, cervical motion tenderness, vaginal pH and ultrasonography etc. A special proforma was prepared and the patients were examined on the basis of available signs and symptoms. Patients were treated with krishnadi churna and panchavalkaladi pichu and marked result was observed in the form of improvement in chief complaints of the patients.
