Next topic for discussion:   Leucorrhoea (white discharge or shwet pradar) and its managment with #ayurveda

(We will discuss rakta pradar separately some time. Pl do not mix with this discussion. Thnx)

Dr. Meghdoot Satvekar: Leucorrhoea / shwet pradar - Excessive discharge of a white, sticky, foul-smelling material from the vagina is called Leucorrhoea. This common problem may occur due to unhygienic conditions, infection of the genital tract, or impaired immune function .

The causative factor is  Kapha Dosha. This increased Kapha, along with other factors, can impair the Rasa Dhatu  present in the vaginal tract, ultimately leading to the painless discharge of white colored fluid from the vagina.

Vd. Kinshuk Hirpara: The causative factor like improper food and lifestyle aggravates Kapha Dosha and vitiate rasa dhatu. Which causes whitish discharge from vagina.

Most common causes

1. Due to anatomy of female genitals they are more prone for infections

2. Poor hygienic conditions due to lack of knowledge

3. Due to having too much weight gaining foods which cause vitiation of Kapha Dosha and rasa dhatu

4. Sedentary lifestyle

5. Physiological reasons like menopause and pregnancy some females experience this during pms 6. Nylon based underwear it causes more n more irritation

Treatment

1. Tab myron from alarcin

2. Soda by Carb tab

Is the main line of treatment as symptom reliever

Find out the main reason afterwards and cure like wise

If digestion system is poor

1. Sooktyn from alarcin

2. Shankhvati

3. Jethimadh

If ama condition then give agnitundi

If related to gynaec issues

1. Falaghrita

2. Manjisthadi

If related to stress

1. Jatamansi powder a pinch every alternate night

Food and lifestyle changes

1. Include 2 fruits and 2 high fibre veggies day

2. Use cotton based underwear n change twice a day

3. I recommend my patients to do dettol wash to clean vaginal parts with dettol( or any antiseptic 2 drops only) + warm water twice a day

4. Have more liquids in forms of lemon water  and different types of veg soups

An advice from ayurvedic doctor is must before experimenting above instructions

Vd. Dhruti Kagrana: The word swetpradara has not appeared in our Bruhadtrayi. Yogaratnakara, Bhawprakash, Sarangadgara samhita and commentator cakrapani in charaka samhita have used the word swerpradara for white vaginal discharge ( leucorrhoea).

Mostly shwetpradara is not a disease, but a symptoms of so many disease.

Emotional stress

Nutritional status

Worm infestation

Uses of medication - including OCPills and above mentioned reasons are the causes of shwetpradara.

It is associated with Pain in the back, Felling of weakness, Loss of body fluids, Pruritis on & around the vulva etc..

Medicines with anupan of Bhata nu osamana (Rice water) is beneficial.

Dr. Bhadresh Naik: We can vaginal dishcharge with pratisyay according to vd ranjitbhai desai

Dr. Bhadresh Naik: Above 36women must go for screening test for ca uterus

Pep smear-Tvs-Not even to rule out erosion of cervix-Fibroids-Mass

Couple must be treat to prevent cross infection.If we diagnosis early ca we shaved the patients Humble request to all don't treat  as a sign find the causes

Dr. Madhuri Patil Chaudhari: to find causative factors thats producing  sign of leucorrhea is imp. Normally during ovulation or around rutudarshankal, discharge normal,,not pathological. Chandraprabha vati, Dashmularishta, if due to dhatushaithilya. Ashokarishta , to maintain normal lunar cycle .Triphala kashay for yonidhavan , Jatyadi tail uttarbasti, if due to cervical erosion or pittalayonivyapad.Kshar tail uttarbasti, kaphaj yonivyapad.Sahachar tel uttarbasti if vatajyonivyapad.

If uttarbasti is not comfortable to patient pichu dharan.(Tampoon soaked in proper sneh, oil/ghee,maximum retention 2 hrs)

Nowadays, it may be an allergic reaction to scented dry cover sanitary napkins. So history taking imp to R/o allergic reactions to Chemical in products used.

Overuse or continuous use of synthetic estro pro combi in newer ocps can induce leucorrhea.

Dr. Bhavesh Modh: Reasons for excessive white discharge – Pradara:

1. Viruddhahara- incompatible food

2. Madyapana –alcohol intake ( lower tribes )

3. Adhyashana – repeated food intake causing indigestion

4. Ajeerna – indigested food

5. Garbhapata – repeated abortion

6. Yana – riding the vehicles

7. Adhwa – long walk

8. Shoka- grief, stress

9. Atikarshana – emaciating disorders

10. Bharavahana –  weight lifting ( lower tribes, labour women )

11. Abhighata – injury

12. Divaswap – day sleep/sedentary lifestyle

13. Ashuchi – Unhygienic activities, infection

Origin of the diseases:

Due to the above said reasons ,the doshas are vitiated and lodged in the sites of Apana vata , namely Shroni (hip), Basti (bladder),उरू(thighs), Garbhashaya (uterus), Yoni (vagina) etc. Due to imbalanced doshas, body cannot withstand the vital strength and hence it is lost through vaginal route.

treatment of Pradara:

Bruhana बृहण– nourishing treatment – to improve strength, nutrition and immunity and

Stambhana स्तंभन – blocking treatment (stopping the excess flow) are adopted.

Dr. Bhavesh Modh: Types Of Leucorrhea

1. PHYSIOLOGICAL LEUCORRHEA-This type of leucorrhea makes a defense mechanism. This yellowish, white discharge keeps vaginal area lubricated which helps to preserve the flexibility of the vaginal tissues. It also helps in maintaining the chemical balance. This white and sticky discharge called leucorrhea is result of estrogen hormonal stimulation. It is very common in different stages of pregnancy presents with white, milky substance sometimes with foul smell. As pregnancy time increases, amount of discharge also increases. Sometimes this discharge also occurs in female infants due to uterine exposure to estrogen which disappears later.

2. INFLAMMATORY LEUCORRHEA - Type of leucorrhea where there is inflammation of vaginal tissues. It also presents with yellow, thick discharge, foul smell. Inflammatory leucorrhea occurs due to some bacterial infections or it may be due to sexually transmitted diseases.

Causes Of Leucorrhea

🔹Hormonal disturbances

🔹Indigestion

🔹Constipation

🔹Improper hygiene

🔹Diseases like diabetes, anemia

🔹Local injury

Symptoms Of Leucorrhea

Thick, yellowish white discharge, Weakness ,Pain in low back or thigh region,Headache,

Constipation

Ayurvedic Treatment Of Leucorrhea

White sticky discharge in Leucorrhea causes due to vitiation of kapha doshas which get aggravated due to kapha aggravating food leads to vitiation of rasa dhatu presents in vaginal track. First line of treatment in ayurveda consisits of enhancement of digestive fire which helps to remove the toxins and waste products out of body along with aggravated kapha. Ayurvedic medicines used here are to give strength to reproductive system. Ayurvedic medicines used are Aloe vera, Gandhak, Lodhra, Ashok, Udumber, Arjuna, Shatavari etc.

🔹Make a douche (Vaginal wash)from 2-3 tsp fenugreek seeds by boiling it in a 1 liter of water. After it starts boiling, keep it on low flame for about half an hour then filter it and use it.

🔹Take 1 teaspoon of powdered asparagus root with 1 teaspoon of honey twice a day.

 Ayurveda refers leucorrhoea to Shwetapradara. This word means excessive white discharge. It is believed to be caused by aggravation or vitiation of kapha dosha. This commonly occurs in patients who are weak, emaciated, and anaemic. Most women experience a certain amount of vaginal secretion, which is the body’s natural way of cleansing, lubrication, and guarding the vagina against infections.  Like the mouth and anus, the mucous membrane of the vagina constantly sheds and replaces its cells, passing them out of the body in the form of mucous secretion.

    This secretion occurs due to the action of cervical and endometrial glands and also because of the activity of bacteria which live harmlessly in a normal, healthy vagina. On the other hand, an abnormal vaginal discharge may be grey-white, yellow or green, brown or rusty. The consistency may be clumpy and thick or thin and liquid. There is usually a very offensive odour, and it may cause irritation and reddening of the part.(vulvitis)

If the discharge is thick and white and there is an itching sensation, it may be due to vaginal thrush, caused by a yeast-like fungus, the commonest cause of leucorrhoea. It may also occur in women suffering from diabetes or those who are being treated with antibiotics for some other condition.

🔹 If the discharge is greenish-yellow and has an unpleasant smell, it could be due to trichomoniasis, a sexually transmitted disease, but it may also be transmitted via toilet articles from one woman to another, or perhaps  might have forgotten to remove a tampon or diaphragm.

🔹If the discharge is brown, like blood, and usually follows intercourse, it may probably be due to cervical erosion.

🔹 If the discharge is spotted with blood, either mid-period or following intercourse, it may be due to a cervical polyp.

🔹If a low back, or an abdominal pain accompanies the discharge, and you feel sick, it may be due to an infection of the pelvic organs (pelvic inflammatory disease).

I seen in my practice ,  women who are constantly under stress and are anxious by nature may also complain of leucorrhoea.

( मनोदवेग > मंदाग्नि > Improper digestion > रसादिधातु अपोषण > symptoms of leucorrhoea )

🔵Precautions for patients of leucorrhoea.

👉Maintain good health, take proper rest, and do stress reduction exercises regularly, as these increase your resistance to infection.

Avoid fried, hot, and spicy foods, pickles, maida, and its products. Cut down on sugar, fermented foods, mushrooms, pastries, sweets, cheese, puddings and alcohol.

👉Take plenty of fresh curds.

👉Keep your vaginal area clean by washing it 1-2 times daily with plenty of water. Pat dry afterwards, using your own towels.

👉Always wipe your anus after defecation from the front to back, to prevent infection from stools entering your vagina.

👉Do not use nylon panties. Wear clean cotton panties and change out of wet clothes promptly.

👉During your periods, use a clean cotton cloth or pads instead of tampons, especially at night.

👉Both you and your partner should wash hands and genitals before and after intercourse.

👉You must ensure that your sexual partner is free of any infection.

👉Use a condom to provide added protection.

👉Keep your blood sugar always under control.

👉Do not self-medicate and avoid unnecessary medication.

👉Avoid perfumes and chemical products such as deodorant soaps, perfumed powders, perfumed sprays, and coloured toilet papers.

👉Do not scratch, as the fungus may get under your nails and spread.

👉Drink at least 10-15  glasses of water daily and include plenty of green-leafy vegetables and salads in your diet.

Mr. Premkumar Yadav: Excessive exertion and high stress can contribute to formation of leucorrhoea, so care should be taken to reduce those elements. A lower impact exercise may be used instead of high impact exercise, while some forms of exercise such as yoga and meditation have been shown to lower stress

Vd. Sushmaben hirpara: Any antiseptic liquid like dettol or savlon ( diluted ) act faster as vaginal wash...specifically during travelling.  Coz maximum infections occur due to usage of different washrooms.  If the cause is cervix erosion  pichudharan acts best. Instead of making pichu anyone can use tampon. I advice patient to  Dèep tampon in caster oil and insert in vagina. Got good results. This is tampon. Mostly it is used  vaginal pad for menstruation.

Surat Vd Medha Patel: Yes,  Dr Sushma,  I too have been using tampons as pichu since years,   very convenient.  

I just tell them that in the normal course, u pull it out when soaked,  in this case, u soak n then put it in,   I usually advise to let it stay for maximum 5hours, but even if it stays overnight,  there is no problem. Since it is pre sterile,  it is very  convenient  to use.  

I have been using the Johnson  n Johnson  tampons for pichu  soaking them in whichever  tailam,  ghritam  that is indicated

Dr. Prerak Shah: In west, women are more aware abt Tampons....Indian women are not so. But it is very hygienic and convenient. For me: In west, my most common suggestion is to use plain ghee for pichu - tampon and keep it over night...always gives me good result

Vd. Rahul Marwah: Common causes of white discharge--

1. Malavasthamb- constipation

2. Yoni vyapad -- diseases of the vagina mentioned in sushrut n vaghbhat

3. Gulma

Dr. Hardikchandra Kalal: Leucorrhoea :-

(1) Physiological:-

(a) As Natural defense ➡ to preserve the flexibility of the vaginal tissue➡ due to estrogen stimulation.

(b) In pregnant woman :- for increase blood flow to the vagina ➡ due to increase estrogen

(c)In female infant:- for short time after birth  ➡due to uterine exposure to estrogen .

(d) Before menstruation , before and during ovulation , during menopause.

➡Physiological w/d is without itching, burning and foul smell.

So, it is helpful for differential diagnosis &

No need to treatment of physiological leucorrhoea. ➡Just counselling  for hygiene.

"panchavalkal kwath avagah sved" & "jatiyadi oil pichu"  best as local hygiene.

➡Type of leucorrhoea:-

(1) Vulvar leucorrhoea:- Mostly in puberty time or menopause time

(2) Vaginal leucorrhoea:- Between After puberty to 1st pregnancy .

(3) Cervical leucorrhoea:- Mostly in pregnant women.

(4) Uterine leucorrhoea:- Mostly in pregnant women but occasionally red colour discharge.

➡Another two types according to cause:-

(1) cervicitis.

(2) Trichomonal vaganitis.

➡1st try to diagnosis and find the cause then treatment :-

It is better for us & patient

Because most common complain of patient :- with treatment she feel better but when it  stop , disease is again  occur.

➡May be possible cause of leucorrhoea is  STD. so, its require long time  or life time treatment.

And cause of simple infection .it is easy to treat and recover with in short time .

➡Mostly we diagnose  leucorrhoea in Ayurved as "श्वेतप्रदर " but in bruhatrayi or laghutrayi no mention such type of word.

➡In charak samhita describe 4 type of pradar

(1) vataj

(2) pittaj

(3)kafaj

(4)tridoshaj

➡In among all 4 type  

Only kafaj may be we can consider as leucorrhoea.

➡In bhavprakash describe "सोमरोग "

And its symptoms match with leucorrhoea but we can't considere because

 "सोमरोग" is related to mutravahsrotas.

Treatment :-

➡As hygiene and treatment

"Panchavalkal kwath avgah swed" & "jatyadi oil pichu"

➡Pushyanug churna with tandulodak

➡Amalki bij  churna with honey

➡Devdavyardi kwath

➡Tab.Myron (Alarsin pharma)

 Dose As per severity and cause .

Vd. Shrinidhi: Chandraprabha vati along with gandaka rasayana do work wonder

Dr. Satyendra Sharma: Permanent solution of Leucorrhoea   

Solution 1

Vd. Hitendra Gohil: pl write botanical name or Sanskrit name.

Dr. Satyendra Sharma: Botanical name of gaabh is diospyros peregrina

Dr.Surendra Davanagere: Shwetapradar, especially caused due to Pitta vitiation can be treated very well with the use of Chandanasava.

Cervical & Vaginal inflammation is commonly seen in Shwetapradar, in which this local inflammation is reduced spontaneously due to the Tikta, Kashay Rasa & Pittashamak properties of Chandan.

These properties also help to reduce the occurrence of white discharge

Dr. Kumar S K: Shwetha pradhara has multifacet etiology and pathogenesis. It may be due to  systemic diseases like anemia, tb , decreased immunity etc and local diseases such as infectious and inflammatory proceses..so treatment varies accordingly but we need to address local and internal drugs. Drugs having kashaya ras will help in treating local and drugs having tiktha, katu and madura rasa helps internally.

DR. Jenil Nayak Valsad: Any disease must be by ayurved point of view...if wish to treat with ayurved medication and principals...

Dr. Jyoti Ashok: I agree with Dr.pulkit. First find out the nidhana,then find out which dosha pradhana,then select the med.acc.to the prakriti of the pt.

Medicines r mentioned in the above posts.dr's should use their yukti & select med.0:30

Vd. Amarish Pandya: Pancha valkal kwath prakshalana and pichu dharan by Nalpamradi Taila provides good results in leucorrhoea due to cervical erosion. Triphala guggulu, Chandraprabha vati,  Supari Pak can be used orally. Advice for personal hygiene, particularly after defecations is very important. Take proper history most of the women consider normal discharge as leucorrhea and get never cured after any treatment.
