EXPLORING KASHMARYADI GHRITA AND YAVAKSHAR UTTARBASTI WITH BALADI GHANAVATI IN ADDRESSING FEMALE INFERTILITY: A CASE STUDY ON ENDOMETRIAL FACTOR Authors: Gosai D And Makim R*
ABSTRACT
The impact and management of thin endometrium is a common challenge for patients who are
trying to conceive naturally or undergoing assisted reproduction. The prevalence rate of uterine
factor infertility is around 5- 10% whereas infertility due to thin endometrium falls around
2.5% as well as in ovarian stimulation cycles, the incidence of thin endometrium can reach 38–
66%; in most studies, the incidence of thin endometrium during IVF is between 1% and 2.5%.
A thin endometrium also significantly hinders IVF cycles. As a result, having a thin
endometrium should be considered a separate predictor of getting pregnancy.
A 28-year-old female patient presented at the outpatient department of Parul Ayurved Hospital,
reporting a 1.5-year history of primary infertility and 1 years of dysmenorrhea. The patient
underwent for evaluation before and after receiving Uttar Basti treatment, which resulted in
significant improvement in endometrial thickness observed via ultrasonography, along with
relief from dysmenorrhea symptoms. According to Applebaum's USSR (Uterine Scoring
System for Reproduction-Total Score-10 to 19) criteria, there was a noticeable improvement
(CET-4 mm to 10 mm) on 12th day of menstrual cycle after two Uttar Basti cycles, along with
an increase in endometrial thickness. Vata-Shamana, Agnideepana, and Dhatuposhana werethe recommended therapy protocols for Dhatukshaya Vandhya. This infertility can be caused
by a thin endometrium. Throughout the course of treatment, no negative effects were
discovered.
