Partial Empty Sella Syndrome Treatment In Ayurveda

Abstract

The pituitary gland is a gland at the base of the brain and produces substances that affect the growth and hormonal levels in the body. The prevalence of Partial Empty Sella Syndrome is 10 to 30%. Females are more prone to this disease than males and mostly middle-aged females. The causes, symptoms, and ayurvedic management of Partial Empty Sella Syndrome are described in detail in this article.  

Partial Empty Sella Syndrome

Introduction

Partial Empty Sella Syndrome is a condition in which the pituitary gland shrinks or becomes flattened. The pituitary gland rests in sella turcica, in the skull, and looks like a saddle compartment.

Partial Empty Sella Syndrome is of two types

  • Primary Partial Empty Sella Syndrome- occurs due to birth defects. 
  • Secondary Partial Empty Sella Syndrome- present due to some disease in the pituitary gland.

Though it is not a life-threatening condition, some people do not experience any symptoms and do not need any treatment if the pituitary gland is not enlarged.

Ayurvedic Aspect 

We can consider Partial Empty Sella Syndrome as a Vataj disorder. Excess aggravation of Vataj dosha in the brain could lead to certain serious disorders by hindering normal functioning and hormonal imbalances in the body. Since all reproductive functions related hormones are released directly and indirectly through the pituitary gland. Vata Dosha suppresses the activity of the pituitary gland. This can be recovered by balancing the body doshas with ayurvedic herbs.

Causes

The cause for primary Partial Empty Sella Syndrome and secondary Partial Empty Sella Syndrome differs. Whereas, more commonly the exact cause for both is still not known.

  • Primary Partial Empty Sella Syndrome occurs due to some birth defects in the sella diaphragm.

Secondary Partial Empty Sella Syndrome occurs due to-

  •  Brain trauma
  •  Pituitary tumors
  •  Surgery of the pituitary gland
  •  Due to other associated disorders

Symptoms

The symptoms of Partial Empty Sella Syndrome may include

  •   Impotence
  •   Infertility
  •   Less sexual desire
  •   Irregular menstrual periods
  •   Inflamed eyes
  •   Blurred vision
  •   Spinal fluid coming out of the nose
  •   The pressure inside the skull at its base

 Diagnosis

Diagnostic tests are done to confirm the diagnosis are

  • MRI scan
  • CT scan

 Treatment

There is no specific treatment for Partial Empty Sella Syndrome and in most cases, treatment is not needed until abnormal symptoms are produced-

  •  Symptomatic treatment is indicated
  •  Analgesics
  •  Hormonal replacement therapy for balancing hormones
  •  Surgery to prevent Cerebrospinal fluid leakage from the nose

Myotonic Dystrophy Symptoms, Causes, And Treatment By Ayurveda

ABSTRACT

Myotonic dystrophy is a disorder that results in progressive weakness and muscle wasting. People suffering from this disorder have the inability to relax certain muscles and muscular contractions are prolonged in such people. In such cases, a person can have problems releasing the handle or door knob grip, temporary locking of the jaw, or slurred speech. Myotonic dystrophy is of two types majorly, i.e. type 1 and type 2 in which the signs and symptoms can be overlapping although type 1 is more severe than type 2. This write-up is all about Myotonic dystrophy and its herbal treatment and management by Planet Ayurveda’s herbal remedies.

Herbal Remedies For Myotonic Dystrophy

INTRODUCTION TO MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY

A myotonic dystrophy is a group of genetic disorders and types of muscular dystrophy and which is one of the most common kinds of it in adults. Signs and symptoms of this disorder can appear at any age but the most common age can be between 20-30 years. In this muscular disorder, there occurs progressive weakness and muscle wasting which gets worse over passing time. Myotonic dystrophy type one is more common than type two.

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY

The two types of Myotonic dystrophy are usually similar but the symptoms can be slightly more severe than type two. However, some of the basic signs and symptoms which both involve are:

  • Muscle contractions are longer than normal, i.e. Myotonia
  • Speech is slurred
  • Lenses of the eye can become cloudy, i.e. Cataract
  • Electrical signals which control heartbeat can become defective, i.e. Cardiac conduction defects
  • Diabetes
  • Progressive muscle wasting
  • Progressive muscle weakness
  • Distal muscles, i.e. muscles that are far away from the center of the body are usually affected. For example, the face, legs, neck, and hands

There are certain other symptoms that can only occur in Myotonic dystrophy type 1 are constipation, trouble swallowing, or gallstones.

CAUSES OF MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY

The main causative factor behind Myotonic dystrophy is a genetic mutation. As myotonic dystrophy is of two types, i.e. type 1 and type 2, hence the mutation causing it is also of two types resulting in respective types. DM1 or type 1 is caused due to the alteration or mutation in the gene called DMPK, i.e. myotonic dystrophy protein kinase. Whereas DM2 or type 2 is caused due to mutation in the CNBP gene, i.e. nucleic acid binding protein gene. Certain proteins which are vital for many body functions are created by the instructions of the given genes. Hence any alteration or abnormal mutation in them causes the production of faulty protein or even protein might be absent which may result in affecting different organ systems like the brain, depending upon the functions of a certain protein.

DIAGNOSIS OF MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY

Neuromuscular disorders specialist doctors can often diagnose Myotonic dystrophy with the help of medical history and physical examination. Patterns of weakness, muscle wasting and myotonia are found here. Certain lab tests like EMG (Electromyography) can help in the confirmation of the diagnosis.

TREATMENT OF MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY

Conventionally there is no exact treatment for Myotonic dystrophy, type 1 or type 2. Medicines are given to control the disability and manage the symptoms like Mexitil is given to combat myotonia. For pain, your doctor would recommend certain anti-inflammatory medicines along with assistive devices for muscle weakness.

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT FOR MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY

Ayurvedic treatment of Myotonic dystrophy can help in improving the quality of a patient’s life along with muscle growth. As per Ayurveda, Myotonic dystrophy is caused due to Vata Vriddhi (Aggravation of Vata dosha) and Dhatu kshaya. As it is an inherited condition hence complete cure is not necessary but proper Ayurvedic treatment can help in maintaining a good range of motion in all the joints of the body.
