Uterine prolapse or Mahayoni in Ayurveda, is a condition in which the uterus changes its normal position and descend into vaginal canal due to weak ligament structure and muscles.

Know more about Uterine Prolapse

Weak muscles can cause heaviness in the pelvic region, which results in pain and discomfort. This condition is common after childbirth and has numerous reasons to occur. Apart from vaginal causes, the uterus can sometimes also protrude outside the vagina, which can create problems when having sexual intercourse. Abnormal bowel movements and urination are caused by this condition. Uterine prolapse occurs due to vata dosha imbalance. Dosha imbalance along with some other physiological and anatomical abnormalities cause uterus to settle down in the vaginal canal and hence cause heaviness and pain in the abdominal region.

Following are some signs and symptoms of uterine prolapse:

Ayurvedic Treatment for Uterine Prolapse

To get relief from this condition, the uterine prolapse treatment first starts with the elimination of poor lifestyle choices like bad sleeping routines, poor diets, and addictions like alcohol and smoking. Elimination of these habits with others like a proper sleep routine, a nutritious diet, and an exercise routine will eventually balance the body and support healthy body functioning.

Ayurveda treatment is primarily based on lifestyle changes rather than only consuming synthetic pills. Lifestyle modifications help optimise the metabolic functioning of the body, which results in better treatment of disease. Detoxification of the body before treatment is also a necessary part, and panchakarma therapy is very useful in this case. This therapy flushes out unnecessary toxins from the body and supports healthy organ functioning. Detoxification therapy, along with the support of herbal medicines, helps manage this condition, and routine checkups will improve the patient’s condition over time. Herbomineral compounds are also used along with traditional medicines to target the root cause of the disease and support the patient’s recovery.

These procedures will greatly reduce the effect of the condition in the body and create a balance in the metabolic functioning of the body, which is required to treat disease better. Also, these therapies reduce stress and anxiety and bring calmness to the mind. In most cases, a combination of Ayurvedic treatment along with lifestyle and dietary modification helps in reversing the disease condition.
