A condition that leads to weak, porous and brittle bones that even mild stresses like coughing or bending over or a fall can cause a fracture. Bones are living tissues that undergo continuous break down and replacement. Osteoporosis condition develops when production of new bone is insufficient to counteract the loss of existing bone. This condition mostly develops without any symptoms or pain and weaker bones are frequently not detected until painful fracture occur. The most common fractures are fractures of wrist, hip and spine.
WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF OSTEOPOROSIS?
This condition develops due to decrease in bone density, that makes the bones more fragile. Bones usually become weaker with increasing age, but in some individuals this process tends to happen more speedily.

MANAGING FEMALE INFERTILITY WITH AYURVEDA

Infertility is defined as the inability to become pregnant and give birth to a child that is limited or hindered in some way. This condition is generally discovered after 12 months of unsuccessful attempts to get pregnant. One third causes of infertility are due to male problems, one third are because of female problems and one third are because of combination or unknown factors. Female infertility occurs when the reasons of infertility are discovered to be from the female spouse. Infertility is a prevalent condition. At least 10% of women experience some form of infertility. As a woman matures, her chances of being infertile rise.
WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF FEMALE INFERTILITY?
There are number of factors that can disrupt the process of reproduction at any step. The causes of female infertility are : Ovulation Disorders
Most instances of infertility are caused by ovulating rarely or not at all. Some of the ovulation disorders are :
- Hypothalamic Dysfunction: Pituitary gland produce two hormones FSH(Follicle stimulating hormone) and LH (Luteinizing hormone) that are responsible for stimulating ovulation every month. Excessive emotional or physical stress, recent substantial weight gain or loss , very low or very high body weight may disrupt production of these hormones and affect ovulation.
- Polycystic Ovary Syndrome(PCOS) : Due to PCOS there is imbalance of hormones, which affects ovulation. This condition is associated with insulin resistance and obesity, acne and abnormal hair growth on face or body. This is the most common cause of female infertility.
- Too Much Prolactin : Production of excessive prolactin by pituitary gland, that reduce the production of estrogen and may cause infertility.
- Primary Ovarian Insufficiency : Also known as Ovarian Failure, this condition is due to auto-immune response or by premature loss of eggs from ovary which is a result of genetics or chemotherapy. The ovary no longer produce eggs and this cause reduced production of estrogens in women under the age of 40.
Damage To Fallopian Tubes
Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes prevent sperm from reaching the egg or prevent the fertilized egg from entering the uterus. The cause of fallopian tube damage or blockage is :
- Previous abdominal surgery : Previous pelvis or abdominal surgery , such as surgery for ectopic pregnancy may cause blockage or damage of fallopian tubes.
- Pelvic Inflammatory disease : Infection of fallopian tubes and uterus because of gonorrhea, chlamydia or other sexually transmitted infections.
Endometriosis
A condition when tissue that typically grows in the uterus implants and grows in other places is called as Endometriosis. Extra growth of tissue and there surgical removal of it can lead to scarring that may block fallopian tubes. This condition can also disrupt implantation of fertilized egg. This also seems to affect fertility in indirect ways.
Uterine or Cervical Causes
There are various cervical or uterine causes that may interfere with egg implantation or increase the risk of miscarriage. The causes includes :
- Cervical stenosis : Narrowing of the cervix which may be due to inherited malformation or damage to cervix.
- In the uterus, benign polyps or tumors (fibroids or myomas) are frequent. Some tends to block the fallopian tubes or disrupt the implantation, thus affecting fertility.
- Problems with uterus that exist from the time of birth, like an abnormally shaped uterus, might make it difficult to get or stay pregnant.
- In some cases cervix does not produce enough mucus to allow sperm to pass through and enter the uterus.
WHAT ARE THE RISK FACTORS FOR FEMALE INFERTILITY?
There are certain factors that increase the risk of infertility in females. The factors includes :
- Smoking : Smoking cause damage to fallopian tubes and cervix and also increase the risk of miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy. Smoke also age the ovaries and deplete the eggs prematurely.
- Age : With age the quality and quantity of the women’s egg starts to decline. The rate of follicle loss speeds, resulting in fewer and poorer quality of eggs in mid 30s.
- Alcohol : Intake of excessive alcohol can reduce the fertility.
- Weight : Being under weight or overweight can affect the ovulation.
WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF FEMALE INFERTILITY?
- Periods that are irregular
- Periods that be excruciating or heavy.
- No periods
- Experience symptoms due to hormonal changes
- Pain during intercourse
WHAT AYURVED SAYS ABOUT FEMALE INFERTILITY?
In Ayurveda important factors to conceive are Rutu( fertile period), Kshetra ( reproductive organs), Ambu ( nutritive fluids) and Beej (ovum). A good psychological state of Vata and Shadbhava is also required for conception. Any abnormality in these factors tends to cause infertility or Vandhyatva . Agnimandya and tri dosha dushti are the major causes of Abnormality in factors of conception, according to Ayurveda. The main causes for agnimandya and tri dosha vitiation are consumption of unwholesome diet, suppressing natural urges etc.
According to Ayurveda, reproductive health is essentially influenced by tissue metabolism and nutrition, both of which are essential for conception. The Ayurvedic approach to fertility is distinct in that it emphasises enhancing the entire health of the potential parents. Fertility may result as a result of increased general health.

The increased medha dhatu cause obstruction of the body channels which confines the vata movement specially to koshtha( abdomine). This leads to stimulation of digestive fire, thus the food is digested quickly. The quality of life quickly declines as a result of vitiated dosha, which abruptly causes serious ailments when the body develops excessive fat. When the person’s buttocks, belly, and breasts have an excessive gain in fat and muscle tissue, become pendulous, and experience poor energy and metabolism, this is referred to as being excessively obese.
