Abstract
Background: Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is a prevalent endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age, characterized by hormonal imbalances, irregular menstrual cycles, insulin resistance and presence of ovarian cyst. Conventional treatments for PCOS often focus on symptoms management but ayurvedic medicine offers a holistic approach that aims at addressing the root cause. Virechana Karma is an essential treatment modality in ayurveda for managing hormonal imbalances and detoxifying the body. Materials and Methods: In the present study a 25 years old female diagnosed with PCOS was treated with Shodhana Karma as Snehapan, Sarwanga Abhyanga, Swedana followed by Virechana Karma and Shamana Chikitsa given after discharge. Result: After the given treatment patient has got significant relief in her symptoms and showed significant difference in her subsequent USG report. Conclusion: The role of Virechana Karma in the treatment of PCOS, emphasizing its ability to regulate the Dosha, particularly Kapha and Pitta, which are considered to be imbalanced in PCOS. By eliminating ama from the body and promoting Agni, Virechana helps restore hormonal balance, improve insulin sensitivity and regulate the menstrual cycle. Hence, Virechana Karma represents a promising and integrative therapeutic option in the present study.
