Abstract
Recurrent pregnancy loss is defined as three or more consecutive spontaneous losses of pregnancy. In Ayurvedic samhita “GarbhastraviVandhya†is a term for recurrent habitual abortion in the first trimester and “Garbhapata†in second trimester up to 20 weeks from the last menstrual period. Spontaneous pregnancy loss is a surprisingly common occurrence and affects 1% of couples trying to conceive. The best available data suggest that the risk of miscarriage in subsequent pregnancies is 30% after 2 losses, compared with 33% after 3 losses.1 In this case study, interpretation of cause is done on basics of Ayurvedic diagnostic parameters and management is done according to that. Deepan, pachan, panchakarma specially Uttar vasti were planned before conception and after conception complete bed rest along with proper antenatal medicines and advices were given. There was uneventful antenatal period except foetal distress at 39.5 weeks of gestation and the patient was delivered by emergency caesarean section. A female baby with 3.1 kg birth weight was born.
