ABSTRACT
Stanya (Breastmilk) is the need of a newborn so expression of milk is of atmost importance to
baby and mother’s health too. Case study - Results & Discussion: Parameters improved
gradually and after 20 days there was significant improvement in the parameters in both
mother and baby. Drugs used for treatment were having Madhura rasa-vipaka, Sheeta virya,
Balya, Brihan, Rasayan, Stanyajanana etc. properties which helped to nourish Rasa dhatu and
to increase stanya pramana (lactation). Conclusion: Rasa dhatwagnimandya and Rasa
dhatukshaya are most common factors in samprapti of Stanykshaya and same should be
corrected to increase Stanya pramana as Stanya is upadhatu of Rasa dhatu. Treatment plan
may vary in each and every patient of Stanyakshaya. Stanya (breast milk) is upadhatu
(byproduct) of Rasa dhatu and it is termed as Jeevan (responsible for life) as it is the chief
source of nutrition to the infant.[2]
