Abstract: Endometriosis can lead to painful periods, severe abdominal pain during the menstrual cycle or before that causing discomfort with bowel movements. Endometriosis symptoms differ. Some women have minor symptoms, while others have moderate to severe symptoms. The degree or stage of the illness is not indicated by the severity of discomfort. Even if a patient has a minor type of condition, she may be in excruciating agony. It is also possible to have a severe type while feeling very little pain.
Vijaya can be an effective solution for the pain due to endometriosis. It not only suppresses the abdominal pain but also eradicates it completely after a course of time. Trailokya Vijaya Vati worked really well on the patient and could treat her severe abdominal pain with regular usage of the medicine as per the dosage being suggested.
Ayurveda Perspective
According to Ayurveda endometriosis can be correlated to Vatala Yoni Vyapat, the causes for this can be vitiation of Vata dosha in a woman having Vata type of body constitution or having regular food or lifestyle which vitiate Vata dosha. The vitiated Vata dosha reaches the reproductive system of the female and causes symptoms of Vatala Yoni Vyapat.
