Summary of article contents:

As per Ayurveda, four factors are essential for the creation of healthy offspring i.e. Ritu (period near ovulation), Kshetra (female reproductive system), Beeja (ovum and sperm), and Ambu (nourishing substances). All of these are related to women. The woman is the prime source of progeny. An offspring cannot be conceived if there are disorders in the Yoni (female genital tract). To fulfill this purpose Yonishuddhata is a major prerequisite. The pelvic inflammatory disease affects most of the structures of the female genital tract with its inflammatory sequalae. Therefore, this condition must be corrected for maintaining fertility so as to obtain healthy progeny. Shigrvadi Kashaya can be used as an oral decoction administration for the reversal of pathology of PID without having any adverse effects of antibiotics and analgesics used in contemporary medical science.
