Abstract
Infertility is defined as a failure to conceive within one or more years of regular unprotected coitus. Female factor is directly responsible in 40-55% thus it is a major issue in the current era due to the growing number of incidences as a result of combination of various unwholesome environmental, social, psychological and nutritional factors. The most common causes of female infertility are ovulatory factors, endometrial and tubal factors, etc. In Ayurveda, Vata is considered to be the root cause behind all the disorders related to the female reproductive system including female infertility. Panchakarma plays an important role in treating female infertility. Basti Karma is considered as the most important treatment for Vataja disorders according to the classical literature of Ayurveda thus here, Uttarabasti is highlighted for the management of gynaecological disorders, wherein medicated oil or ghee is administered directly into the uterine cavity. Ayurvedic treatment modalities can bypass the surgical management to avoid the related burden to provide fruitful outcomes in such conditions. Present review is an effort to understand the efficacy of Uttara Basti in female infertility especially in various factors so the relevant data is collected, extracted and analysed.
