Summary of article contents:

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common health problem caused by a disproportion of reproductive hormones with the ovarian expression of various metabolic disorders and a wide range of clinical features such as obesity, menstrual abnormalities and hyperandrogenism. In this modern era, the erratic lifestyle, highcalorie diet and deskbound jobs have resultantly expanded the spread of hormonal disparities and menstrual disorders have led to an increased prevalence of PCOS up to 20-30 %. There are similar conditions explained in the classics under the context of Pushpaghni jataharini . The treatment should be Kapha-Vata hara, vatanulomana, dipana, pittavardhaka along with avoidance of causative factors. Considering the above facts, Rajapravartaka churna and Hinguvachadi churna were selected for the study. The present study was aimed to bring out the effect of Ayurveda in PCOS, which is safe and nonhormonal. Objectives of the study: 1) A comprehensive study of PCOS and its congruence in Ayurveda . 2) To study the efficacy of Rajapravartaka churna and Hinguvachadi churna in PCOS and to compare its efficacy. Materials and Methods : A randomized comparative clinical study of two groups, consisting of 20 patients in each group. Group A - Rajapravartaka churna orally in the dose of 3 gm twice daily along with tila kwata as an anupana 50 ml; before food for a period of two consecutive cycles. Group B was given Hinguvachadi churna orally in the dose of 250 mg twice daily along with water; before food for a period of two consecutive cycles. Results and Interpretation : The study has shown a statistically significant difference between each group in its efficacy. Conclusion: Rajapravartaka churna showed better results than Hinguvachadi churna while taking the account of the percentage of each criterion.
