Ayurveda Treatment Approach for Female Infertility:
Ayurveda treatment aims at the root cause of infertility. If there is a structural abnormality, ayurveda helps for supporting treatment. Suppose the infertility causes are due to hormonal changes, PCOD, infections, lifestyle changes, weight, and ovulation issues. In that case, Ayurveda treatment treats the root cause of all the doshas so can conceive naturally for the uneventful journey of pregnancy.
According to Ayurveda, four elements play an important role in conception
- Rutu- Season, which is the fertile period in women’s ovulation period for conception.
- Kshetra- Fertile land, healthy uterus without any ailments for implantation
- Ambu- Water in the form of nutrition, a good nutritional supplement for the fetus.
- 4) Beeja- Healthy egg, that is healthy sperm and ovum for fertilization.
So, if all four elements are in a healthy balanced state, then conception happens. So, the Ayurveda treatment approach is to maintain the four elements to prevent and treat infertility.
