Delays in conception (by fertile women) due to affliction by various yonivyāpadas(..) have been described in various texts (CS.Ci.30/38; AS.Ut.38/53; AH.Ut.33/52). There are several other reasons that have been documented under Naigameshahr̥ta garbha or nagodara (delayed labor) (SS.Sa.10/57, KS.Kh 9/39), paripluta or divya-garbha(..) (KS.Kh.9/39-40), bhootah r̥ta garbha(..) (AS.Sa.1/17, AH.Sa.2/62). All these phenomena could be termed subfertility. (7) It is important to remind the reader that the later stages of raktagulma resemble pregnancy in their signs and symptoms, as described by other commentators and sages such as Kaśyapa (KS.Kh.9/37,AD.AH.Sa.2/61,CS.Ni.3/14, Ci.5/19; AS.Ni.11/45; AH.Ni.11/50; KS.Ci.8/17). Ignorant people could misjudge bleeding in raktagulma as destruction of the foetus by evil spirits(Dutta DC, 1998) or hydatidiform mole (Dawn CS,1998) (10)
