ABSTRACT
Endometriosis is a condition which have high recurrence rate. It can cause infertility though the etiology and pathology remains unclear till date. The current therapeutic measures more focus on treating clinical symptoms of endometriosis than curing the disease. Endometriosis as a disease is not described in any ancient manuscript, but group of symptoms can be co related with it. After taking detailed history of patient including modern and Ayurvedic parameters, the patient was given an Ayurvedic diagnosis Vandhyatva (Infertility). Yonivyapat may be understood as the functional and structural abnormalities of female reproductive organs. According to the Charak, there are twenty types of Yonivyapat or vaginal disorders, none of which seem to describe endometriosis individually. As per our opinion it is a Kapha roga, by location Pitta roga vitiated by Vata. In this article a 29 years old female with primary infertility and low AMH level and grade I endometriosis was treated successfully in 2018 with the help of Infertox treatment. Understanding any disease from Ayurveda point view and planning a complete treatment plan is important. Ayurveda can be effectively used as a complementary option in the cases of infertility due to less success rate in infertility cases. In this case we were able to give result in infertility which was due to Endometriosis but to collect evidence on the difference in endometrial tissue caused due to endometriosis need more focused and long study.
