subjectAbstract

Various reports suggest that 30 to 50% of women in the reproductive age group suffer from excessive and irregular uterine bleeding by various causative factors. Various treatments prescribed in modern medicine like hormone therapy, antiprostaglandins and antifibrinolytic agents etc have not proved their definite efficacy inspite of high price and side effect, and lastly hysterectomy may lead to hormonal imbalance and psychological upset in young fertile women. To overcome this a clinical trial was conducted on 30 Patients, were divided in 2 groups, 15 patients in each. Group A (Trial group) in which Virechana karma with aragwadha phala majja kashaya was given; Group B (Control group) in which OCP tablets were given to patients for treatment. Three follow-ups are taken in both groups for three consecutive cycles each. Study reveals, significant benefit was observed by the trial group to reduce symptoms of Asrigdara with a p-value of <0.01.
