Dr. Harshitha C. M.* and Dr. Anupama V.

ABSTRACT

The transformation of a female from a woman to mother is a life time event filled with happiness. But this happiness is gained only after undergoing tremendous physical exertion during labour. In today’s obstetric practice LSCS plays an important role to reduce the mortality and morbidity of mother and child. Owing to this now a days the incidence of LSCS is increasing. Sutika paricharya is the regimen advised after delivery with an intention to correct the agni, doshas, dhatus and bring them to normalcy. Udara pathana mentioned in mudha garbha chikitsa can be taken as reference for LSC. After delivery, as the mother will be having shoonyashareera due to garbhanishkaramana, Shithilatva of shareera dhatu, pravahana vedana, kledaraktanisruti, agnimandya, all these leads to dhatu kshaya hence sutika paricharya is advised. The same is also seen after LSCS. Apart from the above reasons, raktapravrtti during the operative procedures, wound formation as well as immobility for almost 6-8 hours due to anesthesia will further contribute to agnimadya and dhatu kshaya. Hence it is even more important to follow sutika parichaya in these patients. It is the need of the hour to study and ascertain that sutika paricharya can be applied and is useful and in these patients also. With this intension sutika paricharya as advised by acharya Harita was selected and this modified sutika paricharya was advised for LSCS patients.
