Reproduction is the noblest and should be the most reverent of all human powers. Motherhood is the cherished desire deep down in the heart of every woman as it adds a new meaning to her life and existence, In order to achieve this, women needs shuddha artava as it is one of the essential factors for conception. Onset of artava marks the starting of reproductive life of women and it should be devoid of shoola, daha, picchilata and should not be excessive or scanty in matra and is considered as Shuddha Artava. Abnormalities in artava leads to many diseases like Yonivyapad, Artavavyapad, etc. which may results into complications like Infertility. Udavartini Yonivyapad is one among them. In this high-tech epoch, women's position is expected to reach new horizons both socially and physically. But some of the physiological things trouble the lady to make her slow down the race. One of such problems is painful menstruation. Most women often say that having menstruation is like having a monthly curse. Most women experience minor psychological and somatic changes for a few days preceding menstruation and during the days. Most of the accidental and suicidal deaths and other crimes occur among ladies during their premenstrual phase, which signifies the remarkable hormonal changes during that period and shows the importance to treat this condition. Stress of building career is yet another important reason which has now become a major priority in a woman's life. These abnormal interactions excite the doshas resulting into Vata vikruti resulting into painful menstruation. The etiological mechanisms of the disease includes a subtle imbalance of estrogens and progesterone and hormonal therapy is used for this imbalance which is not a permanent cure and on long term even may cause any side effects. Even though Dysmenorrhoea is not a serious ailment but it interrupts patient's personal, economic and social life and also it may lead into many complications. So its promising treatment without any side effects is needed in the present scenario.
