Artava Kashaya is the condition in which menstruation does not occur at the appropriate time, which can be correlated with oligomenorrhea with scanty menstrual blood flow. The principle of treatment is focused on Agni Deepana, Sroto Shodhan, Artava Pravartana and Vata Kapha Shaman. Hence in the current case report treatment scenario was selected for the management and follow-up was done every 15 days. The present case study was carried out by following good clinical practice guidelines, studies on irregular menstruation, and Ayurveda textual references. Written informed consent of the patient was taken before starting the treatment. A detailed history of the patient with all necessary clinical and physical examination and laboratory investigations were carried out. The patient had got her menstruation regularly with normal duration while taking medicine. Also, the amount of flow was improved, and the intensity of pain was reduced effectively from moderate to mild. Even after the cessation of medicine, she got her menstruation in 30 days with a normal amount of flow. Hence, the most common gynecological problem in adolescent girls is mostly amenorrhea or menorrhagia due to frequent ovulation that can be triggered by the presence of oligomenorrhoea which is a physiological condition after menarche, and which usually happens after a period of a regular cycle. Therefore, Artava Kshaya can be correlated with oligomenorrhoea or hypomenorrhea. Artava Kshaya is explained by Acharya Sushruta in Sushrut Samhita Sutra sthan chapter 15 with the characteristics of Yathochit Akal Darshan with Alpartava and sometimes featured with Yoni Vedana. |
