Abstract

Intrauterine growth restriction refers to a condition in which a fetus is unable to achieve its genetically determined potential size. Thus, an IUGR fetus should have grown bigger, if growth-inhibiting factors had not been present in embryonic life. This case study is about a 22-year-old primigravida whose ongoing pregnancy was uneventful until her seventh month. She was visiting Civil Hospital Baijanath (H.P.) for regular antenatal check-ups. On her seventh-month routine visit to the hospital, she was clinically diagnosed with intrauterine growth restriction. She was treated with allopathic medicines, but her condition deteriorated then she visited gyne OPD of Ayurvedic medical College Paprola on the 33rd week of pregnancy and was treated with Ayurvedic formulation. She was given granules of Garbhshoshahara yoga described in Garbhashaygata Vata chikitsa in Ashtanga Sangrah.
