Abstract: Yonishaithilya is a common gynaecological problem in women after the reproductive age group. This must not be taken as easily as it can adversely affect a woman’s life quality and may hamper her day-to-day activities. As per Bruhatrayi, yonishaithilya represents symptoms of mahayoni yonivyapada, Vataj yonivyapada and Phalini yonivyapada. Aetiology (samprapti), signs (lakshana), symptoms, and treatment (chikitsa) of yonishaithilya resembles perineal laxity. Perineal laxity is the condition where there is loosening of supporting structures of the female pelvis, thereby allowing the descent of one or more pelvic organs through the laxed anterior and posterior vaginal walls and showing symptoms like something coming out through the vagina, increased frequency of micturition, difficulty in voiding urine, stress incontinence, toda (pricking pain), chosha (burning), kandu (itching). Ayurveda provides us with formulations like Yonishaithilyahar yoga yonidhavan in Gadanigraha. In this study, we took 100 patients diagnosed with yonishaithilya in a single group and gave them Yonishaithilyahar yoga yonidhavan for 3 cycles of 8 days. After the study, it was found that 31(31%) patients had complete remission, 66(66%) patients had marked improvement and 3(3%) patients had moderate improvement.
