        abstract = {Background: Endometrial receptivity is a decisive factor for successful embryo implantation. Even with good-quality embryos, implantation failure may occur due to impaired functional uterine blood flow and suboptimal endometrial development. The Modified Applebaum Uterine Scoring System (AUSS) is a validated Doppler-based tool for assessing endometrial receptivity.
Case Presentation: A 35-year-old woman with primary infertility and uterine fibroids presented with poor endometrial receptivity. Baseline transvaginal ultrasound and Doppler evaluation revealed a Modified Applebaum score of 12/20, indicating low implantation potential. An individualized Ayurvedic treatment protocol was administered for two months, focusing on Apana Vata regulation, Rakta Prasadana, and restoration of end-diastolic flow.
Outcome: Post-treatment assessment showed significant improvement in endometrial morphology and functional uterine blood flow, with the Modified Applebaum score increasing to 17/20, despite persistence of uterine fibroids.
Conclusion: This case suggests that personalized Ayurvedic intervention may improve functional endometrial receptivity, as evidenced by objective Doppler-based parameters. Ayurveda may serve as a supportive integrative approach in infertility management by optimizing uterine function even in the presence of structural pathology.},
