Women's health can vary significantly with maturity as they experience hormonal variations across the various stages of their lives namely menarche, pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause. Besides the obvious physiological transformations, these hormones also make women vulnerable to greater emotional changes and stress.
Today's modern lifestyle with improper diet, stress and lack of physical activity has been observed to vitiate the doshas and disturb the body rhythm leading to issues and irregularities related to menstrual cycle and Gynaecological disorders. As a comprehensive approach to health and wellbeing Ayurveda prescribes a range of preventive and curative treatments as well as optimal lifestyle habits necessary for women's health and well-being.
According to Ayurveda, the aggravation of Vata Dosha and vitiation of Rakta Dhatu or hormones creates menstrual abnormalities. This can be due to illness, lack of physical activity or overexertion.
Gynaecological disorders are described as Yonivyapad In Ayurveda. Menstrual disorders ranging from amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, and menorrhagia can be successfully treated by understanding the underlying causative factors. Ayurvedic remedies for menstrual problems include the use of natural herbs, detoxification therapies, massage and appropriate lifestyle changes including diet. Some of the commonly prescribed treatments for menstrual disorders include Abhyangam (full body oil massage), Herbal baths, Podikizhi, Elakizhi, Yoni kshalanam, Uttaravasti etc in conjugation with herbal medication.
Ayurveda places significant emphasis on pre-natal care, with a range of prescribed interventions as well as specific herbal portions to be taken internally and oil massages designed to support the pregnant mother and the embryo and to enable a hassle-free normal delivery. Antenatal care or Ayurveda pregnancy care includes the proper nutritious diet, lifestyle, pregnancy exercise/ yoga, pregnancy oil therapy(massage) & Herbal bath.
Post-natal Ayurveda care focuses on restoring the new mother's physiology and psychology exhausted during pregnancy and preparing her for the care of herself and her new-born. This comprises of a detailed post-partum care protocol that includes use of herbal medicines to assist lactation, combined with medicated oil massages to strengthen the body and regain her health. Herbal medications including Kashayams, Arishtas and Lehyams are given to the new mother to enhance immunity, increasing lactation and rejuvenate the body post-delivery.
