Objectives: Karnini Yoni Vyapad which is one among twenty Yoni Vyapads is a common problem of the females in the reproductive age group. Since the symptoms of Karnini Yoni Vyapad as explained in Sam-hitas has got similarity with cervical erosion in modern perspective so it has been taken into consideration in this study. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of the trial drug i.e. Khadiradi Varti in the treatment of cervical erosion. Method: 30 numbers of patients suffering from Karnini Yoni Vyapad (Cervical erosion) were selected from OPD and IPD and were treated with Khadiradi Varti per vaginally following all aseptic measures, once a day preferably at bedtime for 7 consecutive days after completion of menstrual cycle. Such 3 cy-cles were performed for each patient. Result: The trail drug have efficacy in reducing severity of signs and symptoms like degree of cervical erosion (Yoni Karnika), cervical odema (Yoni Soth), discharge per vagina (Yoni Srava), bleed on touch (Rakta Srava) associated with Karnini Yoni Yyapad without having any tox-icity or adverse effect on the body.

Umbilical Endometriosis

Endometriosis is the commonest gynaecological problem; it affects 7 to 10% women in reproductive age group. Commonest site being the pelvic organs, extrapelvic presentation in almost all parts of the body have been reported. However umbilical endometriosis has been reported in more than one hundred cases. It was first described by Villar in 1886. Umbilical endometriosis accounts for only 0.5% to 1% of all endometriosis cases. Most of the reported cases occurred in the scar following gynaecological and obstetrical surgery. A few cases of primary umbilical endometriosis have been reported. We report such a rare case of primary umbilical endometriosis and the diagnosis was done by FNAC & the patient underwent wide local excision.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cmoshmcj.v13i1.19426

ABSTRACTThere are about 10 million people with epilepsy in India and a quarter of them are women in reproductive age group. The social stigma of epilepsy has pervasive impact on the life of people with epilepsy particularly women. The cyclical hormonal changes during menstrual cycle and during pregnancy can influence the seizure pattern in women with epilepsy. Exposure to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) can increase the risk of fetal malformations in the infants. This risk is higher with polytherapy and valproate in higher doses. A small proportion of children with antenatal AED exposure can have problems with cognitive development. All women with epilepsy need to have preconception evaluation to simplify the treatment of epilepsy. It is preferable to avoid valproate as an AED antiepileptic drug in women who are planning pregnancy.

AbstractThere are changes that occur in the maternal organ systems due to increased demands of pregnancy. Most of the rheumatic disorders occur in the reproductive age group. The hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy may mimic the signs and symptoms of rheumatic disorders thereby making the diagnosis difficult. Rheumatological disorders need to be diagnosed and treated at least 6 months before the onset of pregnancy; otherwise they may have considerable effect on the prognosis of the disease. This is particularly evident in cases of SLE and anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome. Therefore, pregnancy is a crucial issue that needs to be clearly addressed in details in all female patients in the reproductive age group having some of the rheumatological disorders.

Dermoid cysts or mature cystic teratoma are the most common type of ovarian germ cell tumor usually occurring in the reproductive age group. They are commonly unilateral and 10-12 % can be bilateral. They are commonly multicystic and contain sebaceous fluid as well as tissue of three germ cell layers e.g. ectoderm (skin, hair, brain) mesoderm (muscle, fat ,teeth ,bone, and cartilage) and endoderm (mucious and ciliated epithelium).These teratomas usually arise from the gonads but has been found anywhere in the body. Their site, size and clinical presentations are extremely variable causing confusion with medical and surgical diseases, acute emergency due to rupture and torsion , bowel and bladder injuries, and pregnancy etc. The malignant teratoma occurs at 3-4% only among ovarian carcinoma. The malignant transformation in benign cysts is a rare occurrence with 1-2% cases and squamous cell carcinoma being the commonest. This review is undertaken to study the different presentations produced by these tumors. Keywords: bizarre; cyst; dermoid.
