Abstract

In Ayurveda, the most common bleeding disorders in women are referred to as Asrigdara and are characterised by Pradirana (excess excretion) of Raja (menstrual blood). In modern medicine, it is called "Dysfunctional Uter-ine Bleeding." Despite their high costs, hormonal therapy, anti-prostaglandins, and anti-fibrinolytic agents have not proven their definitive efficacy in modern medicine; their side effects have resulted in hormonal imbalances. In Ayurvedic classics, all gynaecological disorders are classified as Yonivyapad. Charaka Acharya Raktapra-dara is described as Pradara Roga by Charaka Aacharya. Excessive vaginal white discharge is referred to as Shweta Pradara and excessive or heavy menstrual bleeding is referred to as Raktapradara. It is known as Pra-dara due to pradirana (excessive excretion) of raja (menstrual blood) and Asrigdara due to dirana (excessive excretion) of Asrk (menstrual blood). Menorrhagia is treated with Haemostatic, analgesic, and hormonal thera-pies in modern medicine, which has limitations. As a result, an integrated and comprehensive therapeutic inter-vention in Ayurveda is required to prevent recurrence. Sodhana and Shamana therapies are recommended, but if Rugnabala is low, only Shamana is recommended. Many herbals and herbo-mineral preparations are mentioned in Ayurveda to treat Asrgdara and related symptoms, and these can be used according to Anubandha Dosha and Lakshana. Because Asrgdara is primarily caused by Vata Pitta Dosha, Kashaya Rasa and Pittashamaka Chikitsa may be used. Ayurvedic formulations aid in the breakdown of Asrgdara pathogeneses and their recur-rence.
