ABSTRACT
Both the mother and the fetus value the time spent during pregnancy. Rasa and Rakta from the
mother feed the developing fetus. Garbhavasthajanya Pandu occurs due to the increase fetus
demands and improper functioning of the Rasa Dhatu, leading to malnourishment of the body. In
today’s era, due to decreased nutritional value of food and busy lifestyle, mothers will not be
able to fulfill the extra demand of nutrients by diet alone. Due to Apathyakara Ahar-Vihar there
is Aamotpatti, which causes Rasadhatu Dushti, which further leads to Uttarottar Dhatuhaani as
a Samprapti of Pandu. Anemia is the commonest hematological disorder that may occur in
pregnancy it is major cause of many congenital malformations and neonatal complication. In this
study, iron deficiency anemia is corrected by Ayurvedic drug which is balance Agni and
Dhatudushti and provide Iron supplement to relieve from all sign and symptoms.
