Abstract

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is the commonest endocrinological disorder of women in the reproductive age group. It is characterized by oligo/anovulation, hyperandrogenism, and raised Luteinizing Hormone: Follicle Stimulating Hormone ratio. Elevated levels of Luteinizing Hormone, contribute to hyperandrogenism and the altered ratio between Luteinizing Hormone and Follicle Stimulating Hormone. The present case report discusses the Ayurvedic management of altered Luteinizing Hormone - Follicle Stimulating Hormone ratio in a diagnosed case of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. The patient was diagnosed as having Ārtava Kṣaya with Mukhadūṣikā and was subjected to Ayurvedic management for 6 months commencing with Śodhana followed by Śamana.
