A Case Study of Ayurvedic Therapies for Polycystic Ovarian Disorder

Abstract

Background: Endocrinopathies are involved in the complex heterogeneous illness known as polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD). Although the symptoms resemble Vata and Kapha Dosha involvement, Ayurveda does not link the condition to a specific disease or syndrome. By addressing fundamental metabolic abnormalities and restoring ovulation naturally by accelerating follicle growth, Ayurveda cures polycystic ovarian disorder. The course of treatment for a PCOS patient varies on the patient's body type, underlying causes, and manifested symptoms. Case study: A 25-year-old woman who was visiting the Prasuti Tantra evam Streeroga OPD with her 28-year-old husband complained of dysmenorrhea, insufficient menses, delayed menses, acidity, hairfall, and general weakness. Her ovaries seemed polycystic in her ultrasound reports. She had sparse, painful periods every two days for 45 days with minimal clots. No obstetric history existed. For four months, the patient received Kuberaksha vati, Kalaonji powder, Rasapachak kwatha, Granthiraja powder, and Navayas Churna, with monthly follow-ups.The patient's menstrual cycle was progressively reset to normal, or 28 days, after treatment. Her menstrual cycle was getting closer together. Dysmenorrhea and clot concerns saw a significant improvement. Even her USG results showed that her ovaries looked normal following treatment. In conclusion, this instance demonstrates the value of customized treatment options for polycystic ovarian syndrome. Additionally, it highlights the value of Kuberaksha vati, Kalaonji powder, Rasapachak kwatha, Granthiraja powder, and Navayas Churna in lowering subjective as well as objective Polycystic Ovarian Disorder signs and symptoms. For further inferences, more extensive clinic trials should be conducted.
