Abstract | | | | Tubal blockage is one important causative factors of female infertility. This review is an attempt to evaluate the efficacy of Yavakshara Taila Uttarabasti in tubal blockage. Studies on patients of child bearing age with active marital life of one year or more having complaint of failure to conceive with at least one fallopian tube blocked diagnosed by Hysterosalpingography (HSG) were selected. Collective data of 52 patients from three studies with similar treatment protocol and criteria for selection and assessment is being presented here. Among forty seven patients who completed the treatment, 42.31% had unilateral and 57.70% had bilateral tubal blockage. The intervention in these studies included Yavakshara Taila (5 ml) Intrauterine Uttarabasti for 6 days (with interval of three days in between), after completion of menses for two consecutive cycles. The results indicated that the tubal patency achieved in 80.85% of patients and conception was achieved in 06.38% without any complication.
Uttarabasti is an imperative and an exclusive Ayurvedic procedure stated in classics particularly for the management of Vandhyatva and other gynecological disorders. Yavakshara Taila Uttarabasti may be an effective procedure for treating tubal blockage with no apparent evidence of complication.
Key words: Hysterosalpingography (HSG), Intrauterine Uttarabasti, Yavakshara Taila, Tubal blockage.
