Introduction: Asrigdara is of more concern, because excessive or prolonged bleeding may cause undue disruption of woman’s daily activities & affects woman's health both physically and psychologically. As per Ayurveda classics, Asrigdara is defined as excessive menstrual bleeding for prolonged duration and / or scanty intermenstrual bleeding for a shorter duration, denoting the features of specific Dosha. Asrigdara can be correlated with abnormal uterine bleeding especially dysfunctional uterine bleeding on the basis of its description in literature. Thus, according to its pathogenesis Pittashamaka, Vatanulomana, Rakta-sthapaka, Rakta-samgrahi, Agni-deepana and Garbhashaya-balya Chikitsa is beneficial in Asrigdara. Though the main concern is to reduce bleeding, hence Rakta Sthapana chikitsa becomes important. Acharaya Charaka said it to be treated on the principles of management of Raktatisara, Raktapitta and Rakta arsha. Aim & Objectives: To compare the efficacy of Drakshadi Yoga and Kutajashtaka Ghana in management of Asrigdara. Materials & Methods: Study was conducted on clinically diagnosed 30 patients of Asrigdara in P.G. department of Prasuti Tantra and Stri Roga, N.I.A., Jaipur. Drakshadi yoga was taken in this study from Sushruta Samhita Uttar Tantra 45/34 in reference to Raktapitta chikitsa. Kutajashtaka ghana (Chakradutta 3/86-89) was taken from Chakradutta from Atisaar Chikitsa, having indication in asrigdara. Result: Comparing the symptomatic improvement in both groups it was found that average percentage of relief was a little bit higher in ‘Group B’ Kutajashtaka Ghana i.e. 74.79 %, followed by ‘Group A’ Drakshadi Yoga i.e. 74.21 %.

Background/Aim. The prevalence of endometrial polyps (EPs) in the general female population is about 24%. Abnormal uterine bleeding is frequently the presenting symptom of EPs. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and characteristics of EPs in patients with abnormal uterine bleeding. Methods. The prevalence and characteristics of EPs were investigated in 961 patients with abnormal uterine bleeding who underwent dilatation and curettage between January and December 2006. Regarding histopathological features of EPs (presence of atypical hyperplasia or endometrial carcinoma), patients were divided into two groups: group A - patients who had EPs and EPs with hyperplasia without atypia (n = 204) and group B - patients who had EPs with atypical hyperplasia and EPs with carcinoma (n = 7). Results. In 211 (21.94%) patients EPs were found with abnormal uterine bleeding. Histopathologically, there were 175 (82.94%) EPs, 29 (13.74%) EPs with hyperplasia without atypia, 5 (2.37%) EPs with atypical hyperplasia, and 2 (0.95%) EPs with endometrial carcinoma. Contrary to the patients with EPs and EPs with hyperplasia without atypia (group A), patients who had EPs with atypical hyperplasia and EPs with carcinoma (group B) were older (p < 0.05), and more commonly postmenopausal (p < 0.05) and with hypertension (p < 0.05), all of statistical significance. Conclusion. The prevalence of endometrial polyps in patients with abnormal uterine bleeding according to our data was 21.95%. Atypical hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma were rarely confined to a polyp. Older age, postmenopausal period and hypertension may increase the risk of premalignant and malignant changes in endometrial polyps.

Background: Abnormal uterine bleeding is defined as irregularities in the menstrual cycle involving frequency, regularity, duration, and volume of flow outside of pregnancy. Up to 1/3rd of women experience abnormal uterine bleeding in their life, with irregularities most commonly occurs at menarche and perimenopause due to disruption of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. Aim: To compare the effectiveness of Norethisterone and Dydrogesterone for the treatment of irregular menstrual cycles due to abnormal uterine bleeding of ovulatory or endometrial dysfunction and to check for patient satisfaction after the use of prescribed hormones by taking their feedback. Methods: This observational, comparative, cohort-prospective study was conducted on 100 nonpregnant women between the ages of 15-45 years who presented with complaints of irregular menstruation in gynae outdoor of AMTH for 6 months from April 2021 to September 2021. After excluding pelvic pathology, known thyroid disease, coagulation disorder, or use of the contraceptive method, the participants were divided into Group A and Group B, each having 50 participants. Results: The mean age±SD of the participants in Group A was 29±3.4 while Group B had mean age±SD was 29.5±3.6. In Group A, 38(76%) patients reported a regular menstrual cycle after 3 months of use while 12(24%) patients complained of persistent irregular menstrual cycle despite 3 months use of Norethisterone with compliance in Group B using Dydrogesterone, 22(44%) patients had regular menstrual cycles while 28(56%) patients had persistent irregular menstrual cycles after three months of use. Conclusion: So we concluded from our study that Norethisterone had a better cycle control than Dydrogesterone.

Background: Asrigdara is one of the most common Streeroga mentioned in which presents with the complaint of excessive bleeding per vaginum. It is caused due to the vitiation of Rasa dhatu, from which the Artava is formed. Considering the Nidanas of Asrigdara, it is clear that the Kapha Prakopaka Nidanas and Pitta Prakopaka Nidanas pave the way for Asrigdara. Considering the symptoms, Asrigdara can be correlated to dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) which occurs commonly during the extremes of reproductive age. Objectives: To compare the efficacy of Shatavarigopakanyadi Kashaya and Vasadi Kashaya in management of Asrigdara. Materials and Methods: Randomized comparative clinical study of two groups consisting 20 patients in each group suffering from Asrigdara. Group A - Shatavarigopakanyadi Kashaya 50 ml BD with Anupana of Sita and Madhu, Group B - Vasadi Kashaya 50 ml BD with Anupana of Sita and Ghrita Duration of Treatment: 2 consecutive cycles starting from 5th day of menstruation in each cycle. Results and Interpretation: Both the groups showed statistically significant results for all assessment criterias. Statistically there was no significant difference in curative effect between the groups. Conclusion: Both Shatavarigopakanyadi Kashaya and Vasadi Kashaya has statistically significant effect in Asrigdara.

Background: Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is abnormal bleeding that occurs in the absence of recognizable pelvic pathology, general medical disease, or pregnancy.  Globally, health care systems are focusing on low morbidity and low cost therapeutic interventions. Hence, medical treatment for DUB is high on the priority list. This comparative study was conducted to analyse the efficacy of ormeloxifene and combined oral contraceptive pills in reducing the blood loss and endometrial thickness in cases of DUB.Methods: This prospective study was conducted on women with dysfunctional uterine bleeding, who attended Gynaecology OPD at Hind Institute of Medical Sciences, between August 2015 and April 2016. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 72 women diagnosed with DUB were enrolled randomly in two groups A and B. Group A was treated by Ormeloxifene and Group B patients were treated with combined oral contraceptive pills for three consecutive cycles. The efficacies of the studied drugs were compared by analyzing the mean change in the pre and post treatment PBAC score, haemoglobin level and endometrial thickness using unpaired t-test.Results: Ormeloxifene was found to be significantly more effective (p <0.0001) than OCPs in controlling the menstrual blood loss (79% reduction in group A Vs 55.5% reduction in group B). Reduction in endometrial thickness was also more in the group receiving Ormrloxifene, however this was statistically not significant (p = 0.19). No major side effect observed with the use of Ormeloxifene.Conclusions: Ormeloxifene can be an effective and safe therapy in the treatment of Dysfunctional uterine bleeding.

Dushta Vrana is a common and frequently encountered problem faced in surgical practice. The presence of Dushta Vrana worsens the condition of the patient with different complications and may become fatal. Local factors on wound like slough, infection and foreign body, affect the normal process of healing. A healthy wound in a normal body heals earlier with a minimum scar as compared to a contaminated wound. Therefore in this study all the efforts are made to make a Dushta Vrana into a Shuddha Vrana. Once the Vrana becomes Shuddha, Ropana of the Vrana will start. The objective of the study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Jatyadi Taila and Jatyadi Ghrita in Dushta Vrana. Clinically diagnosed 60 Patients of Dushta Vrana were randomly divided into two groups, each consisting of 30 Patients. Group A were treated with the Jatyadi Taila and Group B was treated by Jatyadi Ghrita. The results observed was based on the relief obtained on the subjective and objective parameters taken for consideration for this study viz, size of ulcer, discharge, smell, pain, burning sensation, itching and granulation were found significant (P Lass Than 0.05). On the basis of assessment criteria and overall result of treatment, the patients of Jatyadi Taila group showed better results when compared to Jatyadi Ghrita group. Even though statistically there is no much significant difference between the two groups, but by seeing the effect on individual parameters (subjective and objective) and over all response, Jatyadi Taila seems to be effective when compared to Jatyadi Ghrita. It is having more Ropana qualities when compared to Shodhana.
