HOW AYURVEDA HELPS IN LEUCORRHEA
As per Ayurveda, Leucorrhea can be correlated with ‘Shweta Pradara’. Acharyas stated that Shweta pradara is not a disease or disorder, but it’s a symptom of many diseases. It is a kaphaja roga because the main causative factor for white and painless vaginal discharge is due to aggravated Kapha dosha as it has a dominance of its liquid property and ras dhatu of the reproductive system is vitiated. Causative factors of Shweta pradara are abortion, excessive coitus, improper lifestyle and diet during menstruation and Ritu kaal along with the unhygienic conditions of the vagina.
