Abstract:
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine pathology commonly seen in females of reproductive age. Young adults are usually affected soon after hitting puberty. Nearly 15% of the global population is affected by this syndrome and the incidence is progressively increasing due to the present lifestyle and its demands on the human body and psyche. Obesity, infertility, insulin resistance and mental stress are some of commonly seen comorbidities of PCOS. According to Ayurveda perspective PCOS cannot be restricted to a particular disease but it can be analysed and treated on the basis of symptoms presented and the causes that have led to it. We can co-relate it to raktaja gulma, the condition that lies closest to the presenting pattern of a PCOS patient. Here we have the case report of a 29-year-old female, who is a diagnosed case of PCOS since 4 years. She presented with the complaint of inability to conceive and irregular periods. After 1.5 years of OP level management she conceived and delivered a healthy baby boy.
