Summary of article contents:

Prameha, akin to diabetes mellitus in Ayurvedic medicine, is characterized by abnormal urinary discharge and systemic imbalances. This study explores the Ayurvedic concepts of Dosha, Dushya, and Mala to understand their roles in Prameha's pathogenesis and clinical manifestations. Through a review of classical texts and modern literature, the research highlights how vitiations in Doshas (Kapha, Pitta, Vata), affected Dhatus (Rasa, Rakta, Meda, Mamsa, Majja), and metabolic waste (Mala) contribute to the disease. It connects traditional Ayurvedic descriptions with contemporary understandings of diabetes, emphasizing the need to further integrate these insights into modern medical practices. Keywords: Prameha, Diabetes Mellitus, Dosha, Dushya, Mala, Purvarupa INTRODUCTION Prameha , a syndrome resembling diabetes mellitus in Ayurvedic literature, presents a complex interplay of physiological imbalances characterized by abnormal urinary discharge
