The uttarabasti nozzle for females should be 10 angulas in length, circumference as equal to that of urethra and its inner lumen permitting a seed of mudga (whole green gram/ phaseolus mungo). It should be introduced to a length of 4 angulas in the genital tract and 2 angulas into urinary tract for adult females and 1 angula for bala (unmarried below 16 years of age). The lady lying down supine with thighs folded upon itself, should be introduced the nozzle comfortably in the direction parallel to the spine. Two, three or four unctuous enemas may be administered in a span of 24 hours. The varti (suppository) to be administered for elimination of basti medicament should be thicker than the enema nozzle. This uttarabasti should be done for three consecutive nights with gradual increase in the dose of unctuous medicament. The procedure should be likewise repeated after 3 days.(65-69½)
