Revitalizing cervical health: a case study on the efficacy of apamarga kshara pratisarana with triphala kwath prakshalana and jatyadi tail pichu

Summary of article contents:

Cervical ectropion or erosion is a prevalent gynaecological condition characterised by replacing the natural squamous epithelium with columnar epithelium on the ectocervix. In Ayurveda, this condition is correlated with Karnini Yonivyapad , which results from local dosha disturbance in the reproductive tract. Acharyas have recommended that Bahira Parimarjana Chikitsa address this dosha imbalance using a therapeutic approach focusing on external cleansing and treatment. The pathogenesis of Karnini Yonivyapad suggests that Kaphahara Chikitsa , involving Kshara as a local application, is effective due to its properties of being Katu , Ushna , Tikshna , Pachana , Vilayana , Shodhana , Ropana , Shoshana , Stambhana , Lekhana , and Kaphanashaka . While conventional treatments may alleviate symptoms, they often fail to address the underlying issue. This study demonstrates that a combined therapy approach can effectively cure cervical erosion by utilising Apamarga Kshara Pratisarana with Triphala Kwath Prakshalana and Jatyadi Tail Pichu .
