MANAGEMENT OF KARNINI YONIVYAPATH (CERVICAL EROSION) THROUGH AYURVEDA – A CASE SERIES Authors: Nagaveni K S And Madhu M*
ABSTRACT
Karnini yonivyapad is a gynecological disorder in Ayurveda, categorized under conditions
affecting the female genital tract. It closely resembles cervical erosion based on its signs and
symptoms. Benign lesions can be particularly troublesome due to their chronic nature and
tendency to recur. In this context, the condition involves replacement of the stratified squamous
epithelium of the portio-vaginalis with columnar epithelium from the endocervix. Treatment
aims to eliminate the columnar epithelium and promote re-epithelization with squamous tissue.
This clinical trial evaluated the efficacy of a combination of Snuhi kshara, Triphala kashaya
and Jathyadi taila in managing Karnini yonivyapad, focusing on cervical erosion. Snuhi kshara
was applied locally on the eroded area, Triphala kashaya was used for Yoni praskshalana and
Jathyadi taila was used as pichu. Results were assessed based on epithelization of the erosion
and symptom improvement. The study found that the combination therapy showed good
outcome in treating Karnini Yonivyapath.
