As female is considered to be the root of a healthy offspring, due importance is given to her reproductive health especially external and internal reproductive system and the diseases which affect those.

Abnormal diet and lifestyle, abnormalities of sperm and ovum are responsible for vitiation of doshas mainly vata dosha, causing gynaecological disorders. All gynaecological disorders should be managed with purvakarma like proper oleation and sudation followed by panchkarma. Besides panchkarmas and special therapies, healthy diet, purgatives and milk are also beneficial to treat the gynaecological disorders. Importance of purification before conception for healthy progeny is highlighted. This is highly significant to prevent hereditary or genetic disorders from passing them to next generations.
