Pelvic Inflammatory Disease Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment in Ayurveda
Abstract
The female reproductive system includes inner and external organs that produce hormones and are similarly responsible for ovulation, menstruation, and sexual interest. The external genitalia protect the internal organs, allowing sperm to enter the vagina. Menarche is a woman’s first menstrual cycle, and the normal menstrual cycle is divided into follicular and luteal phases and is more variable in its time course. When an infection occurs in a female reproductive organ, it is called Pelvic inflammatory disease. Now we discuss the causes, symptoms, and treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease.
Introduction
An infection of the reproductive organs of the female is known as Pelvic inflammatory disease, which is normally due to sexually transmitted microorganisms that unfold from the vagina to the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. Untreated Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) lead to Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, which is a serious condition caused by Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea. Sometimes it leads to serious complications, as the bacteria first enter the vagina and cause infection, with time moving on to the pelvic organs.

Ayurvedic Aspect of Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
As per Ayurveda, it is due to an imbalance of tridoshas, which is responsible for all health and health-related complications. According to Ayurveda, Pelvic inflammatory disease is due to the vitiation of Pitta and Vata doshas. Vata doshas cause pain and difficulty during intercourse. Pitta vitiations are related to inflammation and a burning sensation. Due to the vitiation of Kapha doshas, there is a buildup of Ama (toxins), which gets mixed with the blood and further reaches the reproductive system. Mainly, Apana Vata is responsible for the management and the proper and undisturbed functions of the pelvic organs. According to the symptoms, it can be said that it falls roughly under the conditions below.
Vata dushti

Pitta dushti

Vata-pitta dushti
