Ayurvedic Management of Early Pregnancy Failure

Abstract

Early pregnancy failure is a common clinical challenge, often managed with surgical or pharmacological interventions. However, these methods may not be preferred by all patients due to side effects, cost, or personal beliefs. This case series presents three patients with early pregnancy failure who were managed using Ayurvedic formulations with abortifacient properties. The cases involve both primigravida and multigravida women presenting with varied symptoms such as spotting, bleeding, and abdominal pain. Ayurvedic intervention led to spontaneous expulsion of the gestational sac in two cases, while one case required minor surgical assistance. This report highlights the potential utility of Ayurvedic abortifacients in a controlled clinical setting.
