Endometriosis Ayurvedic Treatment & Diet to Avoid Surgery

Endometriosis is a condition or gynecological disorder where there is an abnormal growth of tissue outside the uterus instead of being inside the uterus. It involves ovaries, fallopian tubes, and the tissue lining the pelvis. The most common symptoms are painful periods, painful intercourse, excessive bleeding during periods, infertility, nausea, vomiting, painful bowel movements or urination, constipation and severe pelvic pain.

Most common causes of Endometriosis are genetics, impaired immune system, aging, environmental toxins and retrograde menstruation.

According to Ayurveda, this is more common in Kapha prakriti women. It can be categorized as Kapha rog by function and Pitta rog by location. Hormonal imbalance, blood flow and any inflammation in endomertrium is caused due to vitiated pitta dosha while overgrowth of endometrial cells is due to Kapha dosha. It is even said that vitiated Vata dosha displaces the endometrial cells from their location in uterus to outside. Endometriosis is known as Sannipatika condition as all three doshas are imbalanced in this disorder.

Herbal remedies for Endometriosis - Ayurvedic Treatment

Here are the Herbal Remedies for Endometriosis and their Dosage.

1. Pradrantak Churna

This is a herbal powder mix of various herbs like pushyanug churna and ashoka churna. Ashok tree is known to possess qualities to balance female hormones. The excess of estrogen and progesterone hormones are balanced slowly in a natural way rather than in an a quick fashion as in birth control pills or hormonal therapies. The bark of this tree is used to prepare this formulation along with 14 more rare herbs.

Dosage - 1 teaspoonful twice daily with warm water.

This preparation gives a lot of strength to the uterus and helps to heal the lining.

2. Female Health Support

This contains extract of herbs useful to shrink the extra endometrial cells by slowly normalizing the hormonal imbalance.

Dosage - 2 twice daily after meals with warm water.

3. Boswellia-Curcumin

Boswellia-Curcumin is a potent anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, anti-cyst remedy in Ayurveda. This works to break down the adhesions, reduce inflammation, pain and swelling, works to reduce and shrink the extra growths of endometrial cells or any other extra growth of unnatural cells in the body - for example piles, warts, tumors, cysts also respond very well to this formulation.

Dosage - 2 twice daily after meals with warm water.

4. Aloe Vitals

Known to posses many miracle healing powers, Aloe is popularly known as "Kumari" in Ayurveda. Kumari means Female. This plant has all the right chemistry and science in it to heal the endometrium without causing any side efffects. It is rich in natural vitamins, minerals and helps to scrape the endometrium slowly and naturally without causing any side effects.

Dosage - 1 twice daily after meals with warm water.

5. Shatavari Capsules

The name Shata means 100 and vari means husbands. It is given an analogy in Ayurveda that this herb gives so much strength to the uterus that it can bear 100 husbands.. though it's a funny analogy but this herb really works well and actually provides strength to the uterus.

Dosage - 2 twice daily after meals with warm water.

All these herbs are recommended for atleast 2 months initially and then there should be marked improvement in the condition. The symptomatic relief can be seen within 15-20 days. The medicine can be continued for 6 months to a year if there are too many uterine fibroids, adenomyosis (adenomas), ovarian cysts, falllopian tube blockage and extensive bleeding associated --- Dr. Vikram - 29th Nov.08

Do not think that these are many different medicines and its too much. These are all herbs. Imaging plucking a few leaves from the tree, making them into a pill will need how many leaves ?

The dosage for getting the results is about 5-6 leaves. So 5-6 leaves do not go into a tablet or a capsule. So Ayurvedists need to use higher doses of herbs to get the desired results.

What is Endometriosis?

Endometriosis is a health disorder of females in which the cells of uterus grow in other parts of the body causing pain, swelling, bleeding and infertility.

The endo metrium is the innermost layer of cells of uterus. They grow in size and number and over lap each others and also spread in other organs like fallopian tubes and cause blockages. This leads to thickening of internal wall of uterus, which leads to pain, inflammation, heavy / irregular bleeding, painful bleeding and most commonly infertility.

Endometriosis affects about 3-15 % of the women. The exact cause is not known in modern medicine but according to Ayurveda - Stress is one of the leading cause of Endometriosis. Use of hormonal pills is also one of the reasons. Unwanted sex in which female partner is not mentally involved is also one of the reasons in some cases of endometriosis.

This disease is one of the leading cause of hystrectomy and laprotomy in majority of women. There are no specific treatment for endometriosis available in modern medicine other than surgery. Danazol - something similar to male hormones gives relief in some females but it causes male hormone side effects like growing of facial hair and hoarseness of voice. So ultimately there is no use of it.

Which Ayurvedic Herbs are Best for Endometriosis

According to Ayurveda, there are certain herbs which are having hormonal balancing properties. These plants do contain female hormone precursors but the herbs have their anti-dotes also within them. This maintains a perfect balance which resolves the situation without causing any side effects. For example, the herb Saraca asoca contains analogues and precursors of female hormone estrogens in the form of phytoestrogens, but if there is excess in the body, it normalizes the hormones and does not cause any side effects. Similarly the other plants like Shatavari have progesterone like actions. The kachnaar Guggul works to shrink the membranes, tumor like cells, endometrial growth and so on. Curcumin is actually a natural pain relieving, inflammation reducing, anti-cancer herb. Although endometriosis is not cancerous but anything that grows out of proportion is known as "cancerous" in Ayurveda. So Ayurveda has different ways of looking at things. The tumors, cancers, adenomas, swollen lymph nodes, growths, hyperplasias all respond really well to the Ayurvedic treatment containing herbs like Kachnaar Guggul and Curcumin.

If you look at this disease from Ayurvedic Vata- Pitta and Kapha point of view, the disease is caused by imbalance of all 3 doshas. First there is imbalance of Vata dosha, then Pitta dosha, the dushya is kapha which also vitiates Kapha dosha.

The herbal combination mentioned above is not only working on Kapha reducing reducing the no. of cells or scraping off / shredding the membranes off) but also balances the metabolism of the functional cells of the uterus and ovaries. This leads to healthy cells formation in future, thereby leading to perfect harmony in the system. Slowly the bad cells are shredded and worn off and the healthy cells take over. The process takes about 6-9 months and one can avoid surgery and even avoid IVF or other measures to get pregnant.
