*Dr. Akanksha Shukla, Dr. Richa Jaiswal
ABSTRACT
Charaka has defined the Acharana Yoni as a vaginal disorder which is produced by the Krimis and itching is the main symptom. In this disease the Krimis are formed due to uncleanliness of the vagina or some infections and due to severe itching the women have the excessive coital desire which pacifies the itching. To evaluate the clinical features and management of Acharana Yonivyapad with drug udumbaradi tail and guduchidantyadi malhar Sixty female patients fulfilling the diagnostic criteria of Acharana Yonivyapad were enrolled in the present clinical study. The patients were randomly divided into two groups, with 30 patients in each group. Clinical assessment was performed before and after treatment based on the severity of vaginal itching, vaginal discharge, and other associated symptoms. The treatments produced improvement in the clinical manifestations of Acharana Yonivyapad, particularly vaginal itching and abnormal vaginal discharge. Maintenance of genital hygiene, along with appropriate Ayurvedic management, contributed to symptomatic relief and reduction in recurrence. Acharana Yonivyapad is closely associated with poor genital hygiene and the proliferation of Krimi, resulting in vaginal itching and discharge. Regular genital hygiene, combined with appropriate Ayurvedic therapy, plays an important role in the effective management of this condition. The disease may also be correlated with infective conditions such as pruritus vulvae described in modern medicine.
