Hinguvachadi dysmenorrhoea case series article

Ayurveda considers women most precious because of their key role in continuing progeny. The diseases affecting the Yoni (female genital tract) and their therapeutics have been illustrated under the heading of Yonivyapad (diseases of female genital system). Artava (menstruation) when associated with unbearable pain is termed as  Kashtartava. Vitiated Vata Dosha is the main causative factor of any kind of gynecological disorders. The process of menstruation is mainly under the control of Apana Vata. The treatment of this vitiated Vata remains main objective for treatment of Kashtartava (dysmenorrhoea). Along with internal medication, local soothing of pain is also important in general treatment of Vata Dosha. Thus, a treatment protocol was developed considering these  aspects for management of patients suffering with Kashtartava (dysmenorrhoea). The protocol consisted of internal administration of Hinguvachadi Churna and local treatment of Tila Taila Yoni Parisheka (Vaginal douche). In the present case series, three eligible patients were explained the purpose and possible effect of multimodal treatment of Hinguvachadi Churna & Tila Taila Yoni Parisheka. Treatment was prescribed to the patients those who were willing for it. Patient outcomes were also noted and analysed. It was observed that multimodal treatment of Hinguvachadi Churna and Tila Taila Yoni Parisheka was effective in the cases where it was used.
