According to Ayurveda, Infertility is when you can't get pregnant after one year of attempting to conceive. In females, the reason for infertility includes endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and thyroid disease. Men with infertility issues might have a low sperm count or low testosterone.

Treatment of Infertility at Ayushakti

Agni Deepana and Ama Pachana

Ama arrangement (toxins made when undigested food structures in the stomach) by the imbalance in Agni (the force of absorption) lead to numerous diseases in the body. Consequently, the therapy of Ama(toxins) should constantly incorporate the therapy of Agni, including the utilization of stomach-related and carminative Ayurvedic details and eating food at a legitimate time following a fixed timetable. 

Ayushakti Ayurveda Panchakarma treatments help to dispense with Ama and rectify Agni. 

Vatanulomana

The fundamental dosha associated with infertility is Vata. Vatanulomana (balancing the elements of Vata) is vital in treating infertility. Following routine exercises, yoga and meditation along with a fixed eating schedule.

Sodhana

Snehana (Oleation Therapy) and Swedana (Sudation treatment or Medicated Steam Fomentation treatment) are done before Sodhana (detoxification therapy). Then, treatment modalities like Vamana (emesis), Virechana (purification), Vasti (cured purification) and Utharavasti (enema) directed through urethral or vaginal opening are finished according to the condition of the patient. The patient must follow peyadi krama (a dietary routine to be followed behind Sodhana). This detoxification treatment helps to remove ama (toxins) from the body. These treatments help to address ovarian, tubular and uterine issues causing infertility.
