RESUMO
The Garbhaavkarnti is the stage that describes the process of the growth of cell from intra-uterine life to post natal stage. The Garbhaavkranti mainly deals with the pre-natal life i.e. the foetal period and other related processes. This period is minutely envisioned by Langman’s medical embryology, and in Susurta Sharira we have got more detailed version of pre-natal period. The Garbha-avkranti word signifies the Garbh i.e. zygote and Avkranti or Avatarana i.e. different stages of development of zygote. Garbhaavkranti is a process in which different stages of formation of Garbha is mentioned. Garbha (zygote) is formed from the uniparental inherent cells known as sperm and ovum. There are some special characteristics that combine or fuse together along with 24 other Gunas like Avyakta, Mahana, Ahankara, Prakriti Tatva and Bhava i.e. gene and chromosomes. There is no single way that may lead to the formation of Garbha. Matraja Bhava (maternal inheritance factor) is present in Aartava which further shows the quality of Aagnaya feature i.e. the mitochondria of ovum. The importance of embryology at that time was known by Susruta & the criteria for good progeny & the process by which embryo develops was all known to them in subtle level. It is fascinating to conclude that they knew about all this without the technological advances which are available today. The importance of healthy mother & father in phase of conception is shown in this Garbhavkranti. This gives the idea of unhealthy reasons and gives broad scale treatment for infertility cases. The Garbhaavkranti (embryology) is always a matter of mondo concern to medical field. So, in this article the Susurta Sharira Grabhavkranti is discussed precisely thereby referring to Langman’s medical embryology for testimonial based study.
RESUMO
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is the most common disease in the female population among adolescence and reproductive age group mainly due to the adoption of westernized culture. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is a physiological disorder that causes many negative effects involving a variety of systems in the body, such as the endocrine, metabolic, psychological, and reproductive systems. The complex symptomatology of PCOS makes very difficult to treat as a whole. In Ayurveda also no disease can be compared directly with PCOS. Some of clinical symptoms of PCOS may simulate Granthibhoota Artava dushti and if not treated early lead to the full manifestations and complications of PCOS. A 26 year old female came to OPD of Streeroga of IPGT & RA, having the complaints of irregular cycle, weight gain and failure to conceive since 2 years of active married life with a previous history of abortion. Sonography revealed bulky ovaries with multiple small follicles. Based on clinical findings along with sonological evidences Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome was diagnosed and a treatment protocol was selected for managing the PCOS and finally to achieve conception. Palasadi basti was selected followed by Pathadi choorna orally with warm water as internal medicine. The treatment was done for 3 months and during follow up the cycles became regular and finally the patient got conceived within 2 months.
