“It is the woman who procreates children and propagates the human species. Dharma (righteousness), Artha (wealth), Lakshmi (auspiciousness), and Loka (the entire universe) are represented in every woman”. Ayurveda regards the woman as she is the very foundation of society. Sutika is not a Rogi, the Paricharya explained to Sutika in Prasavottara Kaala is like Dinacharya, Ritucharya as explained for Swashta. This makes the necessity of particular mode of life in order to attain puerperium pre pregnancy health and to rejuvenate. A Sutika’s Sharir is thought to be empty after delivery due to exertion of labor pains & excretion of moisture (Kleda) & blood. The mother become very tired after delivery and hence needs to be given extra care. As well as during Sutika-Kala the Sutika is prone to many diseases which developing either in normally delivered woman or in a woman having undergone a difficult labour are not dealt in much detail by most of the Acharyas. There is a need of proper Ayurvedic treatment which not only improves her physiological condition but also protect her from the upcoming diseases. Total 20 clinically diagnosed patients were registered for the present study and study was completed in 18 patients. Sutika Dashmoola Kwatha showed satisfying results statistically.
