EXPLORING UNEXPLAINED INFERTILITY THROUGH AYURVEDIC ETIOLOGICAL AND TREATMENT FRAMEWORK- A CASE REPORT
Dr. Neha Verma, Sonam Baghel*
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Unexplained infertility is a condition in which a couple fails to conceive despite normal clinical, hormonal, and imaging findings. Modern diagnostics often cannot identify the underlying cause. According to Ayurveda, conception depends on the balanced state of doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha), proper function of dhatus (body tissues), healthy agni (digestive fire), and a stable mental state. Methods: A 35-year-old female patient with six years of primary infertility and a history of one failed IVF and four failed IUI cycles was treated using Ayurvedic principles. The treatment included Shamana chikitsa (oral medications), dietary modifications, yoga, relaxation techniques, and pranayama. Internal medications included Phala Ghrita, Shatavari, Santati Sudha, Immunogrit, and Narikanti. Lifestyle and dietary counseling were also provided. Results:After two months of Ayurvedic treatment, the patient tested positive on a urine pregnancy test, which was later confirmed via ultrasonography. The scan revealed a single live intrauterine gestation of approximately 5 weeks and 4 days. Follow-up treatment was continued with appropriate prenatal care according to Ayurvedic Garbhini Paricharya. Discussion: This case highlights the potential of Ayurvedic management in unexplained infertility by focusing on holistic well-being and dosha balance, especially Vata anulomana. Ayurveda may help address subtle functional imbalances that are not identifiable through modern diagnostic methods.
