  • Abstract:
  • Around the world, dysmenorrhea, also known as Kashtartava, is a common cause of menstrual illness. In order to maintain Apana Vata balance and prevent menstrual diseases, the traditional Ayurvedic regimen of nutritional, behavioural, and external measures during menstruation, known as Rajasvala Paricharya, is advised. It is also being suggested more and more as a non-invasive method for relieving periodic pain. Rajasvala Paricharya stated goals in classical texts and modern Ayurvedic literature are to preserve samy avastha (body equilibrium), protect reproductive health, promote a shuddha artava (menstrual blood), and prevent menstrual disorders like kashtartav. Menstrual flow is treated as physiological by classical Ayurveda which also provides an outline of precautions to take for the menstruation woman. Rest, avoiding strenuous work, consuming warm, easily digested mealsavoiding cold exposure and cold baths also advised to avoid ushna katu amla lavana aahar These are intended to avoid Srotorodha and Vata distortion and to promote Apana Vata functioning.Specific recommendations in Ayurvedic interventions emphasize Yavanna (barley-based preparations) Acharya Sushruta advised consuming Havishya, which are prepared from Shali, Yava, ksheer, and Ghrita, during the menstrual period. especially in terms of regulating Pitta and Vata doshas, which are necessary for normalizing menstruation. Early clinical features (testing the Yavanna/barley diet) justify further rigorous evaluation. objective outcomes (pain VAS, analgesic use) are priority next steps
