ABSTRACT

Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, often resulting in inflammation, pelvic pain, menstrual abnormalities and formation of cysts such as endometriomas.[1] While conventional management includes hormonal therapy and surgical interventions, these treatments do not treat the root cause and frequently result in side effects, recurrence, or incomplete resolution of systemic imbalances.[2] Ayurveda offers a holistic approach to endometriosis by addressing the underlying dosha imbalances, particularly involving removal of obstruction of Vata dosha- in turn regulating retrograde flow of menstrual blood, improving the immunity and strength of the reproductive organs, and aiming to restore the function of the reproductive channels (Artava vaha srotas).[3] This case study presents a 28-year-old female patient with a two-year history of primary infertility and three failed intrauterine insemination (IUI) attempts. She reported symptoms of vaginal dryness, loss of libido, and high stress. Laparoscopy confirmed the presence of an endometriotic cyst within the uterine cavity. The patient was administered a three-month Ayurvedic treatment regimen comprising proprietary formulations- Poshini, Srujan and Vayu. These formulations regulate retrograde blood flow, ensure hormonal balance, and improve fertility. Post-treatment, the patient showed significant symptomatic relief, improved sexual health, and conceived within 3 months. The absence of adverse effects and improvement in fertility indicators highlight the role of Ayurvedic treatment of infertility due to endometriosis.
