Abstract
There is no exact correlation between the Thyroid gland and Hypothyroidism in Ayurveda. But the function of the Thyroid gland can be compared with the action of Agni, Tridosha and Dhatus. However, the symptoms of Hypo- thyroidism are correlated with the symptoms of Ama, Ojovyapat, Kaphavritta Udana. If we find the type of dis- ease, then all endocrine disorders are Adhyatmik Vyadhi which is described in Sushrut Samhita. Causative factors of Adhyatmik Vyadhi are perfectly matched with Hypothyroidism in the present era. Ayurveda is one of the oldest and purest forms of treatment available today. Ayurveda always emphasizes that, if you won't find the disease in Samhita/Text, then fit all the symptoms of that disease in its basic principles and then treat it as per Ayurvedic perspective. Now a days, different types of symptoms are seen in different types of people, as Hypothyroidism involves impairment of various systems i.e., strotas. Due to the advancement of technology and instrumentation, it is easier to diagnose Hypothyroidism based on a pathological investigation. But modern management of Hypo- thyroidism is not satisfactory. That's why for safe, effective, and preventive management, find the pathogenesis of disorders according to the Ayurvedic perspective. Keywords: Hypothyroidism, Agni, Tridosha, Dhatu, Ama, Ojovyapat, Kaphavritta Udana.
