PLANNING A BABY BUT UNABLE TO CONCEIVE? TRY AYURVEDA TREATMENT FOR BETTER RESULTS
The inability to conceive is a source of worry to most couples who are planning a child. Although most people turn to conventional medicine for help, going the Ayurvedic route can help increase the probability of conception and treat infertility with minimal side effects.
Dr. Soumya Hullannavar of EliteAyurveda here gives a glimpse of how Ayurveda functions to help couples.
The ayurvedic approach, however, differs from conventional medicine. The treatment for Infertility in Ayurveda is comparable to a plant’s human conception. Therefore, the basis of the treatment of infertility in Ayurveda resembles four aspects of feeding the seed into a plant.
| Condition (Sanskrit) | In Plants | In Human beings |
| Ritu | Season | Proper ovulation & menstrual cycle |
| Kshetram | Fertile land | Healthy uterus |
| Ambu | Proper water & nourishment | Sufficient nutrition |
| Beejam | Quality of Seed | Quality of Sperm & Ovum |
Ayurvedic treatment is based on ensuring that the woman properly ovulates and develops safe ova and that the male sperm and sperm production is adequate. A key feature of Ayurvedic therapy is also ensured that both men’s and women’s reproductive bodies are balanced. Know when your fertile days are to get pregnant.
When this balance is disrupted by poor diet and lifestyle choices, any disease or ailment will manifest. While traditional medicine may treat each partner individually, Ayurveda treats the couple seeking conception as a whole, removing toxins and restoring tranquillity and equilibrium in order to initiate conception.
According to Ayurveda, pregnancy is contingent upon the sperm, ovum, and uterus being in good health. For both men and women, reproductive health depends upon the health of the Shukra Dhathu, or body-generated reproductive tissue. Proper metabolic function and digestion aid in the transfer of nutrients from food towards body fluid, blood, fat, muscle, bone, and bone marrow, and finally to Shukra tissue. In females, the Shukra tissue releases the ovum as part of the menstrual cycle; in men, sexual stimulation results in the formation of semen. Shukra dhathu’s health is contingent upon the health of all other tissues and the proper functioning of the body’s metabolic processes.
There are many physiological, psychological, and environmental factors that may affect fertility in men and women; here are a few Ayurvedic explanations for this.
The health of the reproductive organs: In women, the uterus is responsible for conception; in men, sperms are responsible for conception. However, inadequate nutrition, poor digestion, and toxic buildup in the body can prevent nutrients from reaching the uterus or turn the sperm unhealthy.
Lack of emotional connection: Having sex under duress with someone you dislike or are emotionally detached from will make it difficult to conceive. On the other hand, excessive sexual activity may result in Shukra kshaya and impotence.
Irregular diet: Eating hot, salty, or preservative-laden foods stimulates Pitta and kills Shukra or sperm.
Infection or trauma: Infertility may also occur when infection or trauma damage to the reproductive tissue.
##### Note: Some people may develop birth impotence.
Ayurvedic treatment is based on the detoxification of the body and helps every cell obtain adequate food for optimal operation, improving its conception chances. Phase F clearance formulations is an aid to couples in Ayurveda.
The body gets rid of toxins by removing them through this mode of treatment. The digestive system is corrected on a micro level until detoxification is performed which also ensures that each cell in the body begins to consume proper food.
If nutrients such as vitamins and minerals enter the detoxified cells, together with digestive enzymes and an adequate amount of oxygen, each cell begins to act normally, enhancing the body’s self-healing ability, boosting immunity, and increasing chances of pregnancy.
A minimum of 21 days is required to complete the entire process.
The treatment modalities and internal medicines are normally chosen according to the point, length, and constitution of the disease. Only after making a proper health assessment of the couple is a final Ayurvedic plan to treat infertility produced.
