Abortion is the termination of pregnancy, where the fetus cannot survive in the external environment. Spontaneous abortion is miscarriage and intentional abortion is induced abortion. There are various laws in modern countries to regulate abortion and their social and ethical dialogues have been started since time immemorial.

Induced abortion is performed with medication or surgical methods and is the safest medical procedure. However, this procedure carried out by charlatans reports the death of more than 50,000 in one year. A study says that last year 50 million abortions were performed and half were handled by untrained healers who caused a serious threat to the health of millions of women.

Miscarriage is a medical condition and is caused by various etiologies like incompetence of the cervix, weakness of the mother, hormonal imbalance, hereditary factors, physical exertion, stress, etc.

Ayurveda has a unique concept of the Tridosha (Three Somatic Humors) theory regarding the metabolism of the body. Every action of the body can be explained in terms of three humors: Vata (Air), Pitt (Fire), and Kaph. Health is the balance of these three factors and their imbalance causes disease. Pregnancy occurs in a unique combination of three factors and Vata supports the fetus, Kaph nurtures and Pitt converts. Any reason that challenges this balance will lead to miscarriage and there is a clear Garbhini charya (pregnant daily routines) to manage the balance and for healthy offspring. There are some special foods and decoctions for each month and this will allow a smooth delivery.

Ayurveda compares fertilization to the formation of fire from two pieces of wood by rubbing them together. Atma or soul enters the womb and by the association of Atma, the fetus becomes chetana (active, conscious, alive). The growth of the fetus month by month is explained Sarirasathana of Ashtanga Hrdayam.

The pregnant woman should avoid excessive sexual activity, carrying heavy loads, sleeping or waking up at inappropriate times, sitting on hard surfaces, grievances, anger, fear, emotions, suppressing natural impulses, controlling desires, fasting, walking long distances, eating spicy foods, alcoholic beverages, meats, lying on your back, and panchkarma therapies. A pregnant woman who engages in such activities or due to other illnesses develops stomach bleeding or pain. After expelling the embryo, women should be given drinks to ease the pain. Strong wine is recommended and cleanses the uterine cavity and suppresses pain. After that, a special rice soup processed with laghu panchmoola-Solanum indicum, Solanum xanthocarpum, Desmodium gangeticum, Uraria picta and Tribulus terrestris without fat or salt is given. The selected herbs are easily digestible and promote digestion.

After the initial treatment, women should receive Dipyakadi churna with ghee for three days. The decoction based on Katuka (Picrorhiza kurroa), Ativisha (Aconitum heterophyllum), Pata (Cissampelos pareira), Sakha twak (Cinnamomum zeylanicum), Hingu (Ferula asafoetida) and Teja (Marsdenia tenacissima) should be administered in the same period. For the next seven days, women should be given medicated ghee and arishta (fermented liquid medicine) depending on the reason for miscarriage, a tampon soaked in Shirisha (Albizia lebbeck) or Kakkubha (Terminalia arjuna) decoction should be inserted into the vagina . .
