NO MORE PAINFUL MENSTRUATIONS

Hello friends... myself DR SHAYESTA INAMDAR and today we will see how to get rid of painful menses or Dysmenorrhoea.       
                     
Many teenage girls and even in some extend middle age women are suffering with this problem.  Basically periodic menstrual cycle is a very natural phenomenon and it should be as normal as men doing periodic beard shaving.But in some ladies this is not So much easier. So when menstruation is so painful as to incapacitate​ day to day activities then it is called as DYSMENORRHOEA. Again depending upon is there any pelvic pathology or not, it is divided into two types primary and secondary dysmenorrhoea and then it has different causes  of which polyps, fibroids and other anatomical deformities goes under surgical treatments.And other than surgicals are psychosomatic factors, vasopressin ,prostaglandins, congestion ,etc....But you can get all this information on many other regarding sites​......here i will tell you it's another aspect that is ayurvedic aspect.     
              
  So what ayurveda says about dysmenorrhoea or KASHTARTAV?Let's see.Actually ayurveda says that whenever there is kashtartava or Dysmenorrhoea there is always rasadhatu dushti, apanwayu dushti, sometimes raktdhatu dushti and sometimes anatomical deformities too.Didn't get?Well these are particular ayurvedic terminologies which are well known to all ayurvedic graduates that is ayurvedic doctors but  my blog is also for common non ayurvedic people too ......so let me make this easier to understand everyone.         
    
     Do you  know why nature created all this periodic menstrual system?Offcourse this is a part of reproductive mechanism of human being. So let's see what happens there  .        
        
   Before ovulation or release of ovum from ovary , (first half part of cycle)body naturally try to prepare uterus for fertilisation. So uterus gets​ more nourishment by increasing blood supply,it gets more toned up.A soft bed of tiny ,delicate blood vessels get arranged there inside uterus on layer of uterine wall called endometrium,considering that ovum will get fertilised and will lie down here on this bed.So this is nourishing phase of uterus and according to ayurveda BRUHAN KAL.Then approximately at the middle of menstrual cycle ovum gets released. Well if it gets fertilised then  ok but if  not  then body removes​ all that preparations .The ovum gets liquefied, blood vessel's bed gets shedded off.....that is shedding off phase and according to ayurveda shodhan kal.This all is normal mechanism.but if something goes wrong in this mechanism...whatever may be the cause either according allopathy or according to  ayurveda ....then it causes Dysmenorrhoea or KASHTARTAV.      

  Now we known its pathogenesis but how to cure this ? Very simple that just support your body to do it's normal duty properly. How?here is the way shown by ayurveda.Three medicines are there.                                       
     1) ASHOKARISHTA:-
This is well known uterine tonic which nourishes ,tones up and makes​ more rhythmic to uterus. So start two tsp ashokarishta two times a day  from just after stoppage of  menstrual bleeding. After fifteen days that is after ovulation, stop this and start another medicine given below.    
                               .             .            

 2) KUMARIASAV-
This is well known shodhan kalp of ayurveda.It helps uterus to shed off vessel's bed easily and thus cleans uterus properly. It also relaxes os of cervix so that to leak out shedded blood easily. So start it taking two tsp two times a day just after stopping ashokarishta. Up to fifth day of menses.Thus both above medicines should be taken alternatively​ fifteen fifteen days.And third one medicine is.               

                                               
   3) DASHMULARISHTA -
This is a master drug keeping all things proper by keeping apan wayu proper.Apan wayu is the controller or manager of reproductive system .So take it continue two tsp twice a day for whole month. 
   This is the schedule of medicines to regulate and make painless to your menstruation. Follow this for three continue menstrual cycles and get freedom from monthly pain and monthly painkillers and antispasmodics.                                             Remember always, though ayurvedic but still these are medicines, so if you have some problem with medicines then take opinion of expert ayurvedic graduate doctor or ask your queries here.One more thing, this is not alternative treatment to any surgical need.So use it and let me know.                 
   Before finishing today's article I will note one sentence here which is mentioned by dr.D.C.Datta a well known gynaecologist and author of different gyn obstratic books.He mentioned in his gynaecology book that , women having dysmenorrhoea are mostly belongs to AFFLUENT SOCIETY! !                                     
    So I will write my next article on what dr.D.C.Datta wanted to say by this.But till then you people think about why prosperity makes menses painful!!!!
