PATHOGENESIS OF ENDOMETRIOSIS - AN AYURVEDIC PERSPECTIVE

Dr Divya Sreenath. J

Abstract :

 Endometriosis is considered to be as the 3rd leading cause for gynaecologicalhospitalisation (Mcleod, 2010)characterised with severe pain and other symptoms like menstrual irregularity, infertility etc. There are so many theories regarding the pathogenesis of the disease, but none of these is capable of exploring its pathogenesis as a whole.In ayurvedic classics there is no specific condition or disease which can be exactly correlated to endometriosis.According toacharyas, for treating a disease it is not necessary to know its name but is mandatory to know its pathogenesis.Depending upon its clinical signs and symptoms we can consider the different entities like yonivyapath,raktagulma, raktapitta etc. and treat accordingly. The main aim of the treatment is to reduce the pain, restore fertility and to prevent the recurrence of symptoms
