ABSTRACT

Introduction: Male in fertility is a significant global health concern, contributing to 20 40% of infertility cases. Among infertile males, 45% exhibit oligozoospermia or azoospermia. Conventional therapies offer limited success in managing these conditions. Ayurveda describes seminal defects under Shukra Dushti and sexual dysfunctions under Klaibya within Vajikarana Chikitsa . This case report explores the efficacy of Ayurvedic management in a patient with azoospermia. Methodology: A 30 year old male presented with primary infer tility and generalized weakness. A prior semen analysis confirmed azoospermia. Clinical and Ayurvedic assessments revealed Shukravaha Srotas Dushti with Vata predominance. The patient underwent a three month Vajikarana based intervention, including Manmant ha Rasa , Pushpadhanwa Rasa , Makaradhwaja Rasa , Poornachandrodaya Rasa , Swarna Vanga Rasa , Shukramruta Rasa , and Kapikacchu Choorna , along with Shilatone capsules. Outcome: Follow up semen analysis demonstrated sperm count improvement from 0 to 20 million/m L, with motility enhancement (RLP+SLP: 35%). While azoospermia resolved, mild asthenozoospermia and reduced semen volume persisted. The patient also reported improved physical strength and well being. Conclusion: This case demonstrates Ayurveda’s role in m anaging male infertility, demonstrating significant improvements in seminal parameters. Vajikarana chikitsa offers promising potentials in azoospermia management.
