ABSTRACT

Uterine causes of infertility contribute to about 5 to 10% of cases. A fairly normal uterine cavity and endometrial lining are necessary in order to conceive and maintain normal pregnancy. Low endometrial thickness is one of the most challenging factor, even artificial reproductive techniques (ART) like IVF fails if the endometrium is not supportive for proper implantation resulting in either implantation failure or early pregnancy loss. In the present case a 24 year female presented with primary infertility due to thin endometrium was managed with ayurveda. The study was done to evaluate the role of sthanika and shamana chikitsa i.e.; yoni pichu with phalakalyana ghrita along with oral use of baladi vati for two consecutive menstrual cycles. After completing two courses of treatment significant improvement (CET-3mm to 9.2 mm)- was noticed as per Applebaum’s USSR (Uterine Scoring System For Reproduction-Total Score-10 to 19) criteriae with enhancement of the endometrial thickness. The treatment protocol was agnideepana, vata-shamana, dhatuposhana as infertility due to thin endometrium may be considered as dhatukshaya vandhya. There were no adverse effect found during the course of therapy.
