Abstract

Rakta pradara is one of the common gynaecological complaints seen in our OPDs—Pradirana (Excessive se-cretion) of Raja, termed as Pradara by Acharya Charaka1. Prolonged and intermenstrual bleeding is termed Asrigdara by Acharya Susrutha2. The menstrual bleeding flowing abnormally in volume, duration, intensity, and frequency is called the disease Raktapradara (AUB). Various treatment modalities like hormonal therapy, anti-prostaglandins, antifibrinolytic agents and surgical interventions are available in modern medicine for the man-agement of AUB. Considering the side effects and adverse effects, Ayurvedic management can be recommended as a safer, more feasible and more effective therapy for the management of Rakta pradara.
