Holistic Care in Obstetrics & Gynecology
Prasuti Tantra and Stree Roga, a major branch of Ashtanga Ayurveda, addresses women’s health across all stages of life. It encompasses menstrual disorders, reproductive health, infertility, antenatal and postnatal care, and gynecological conditions. Ancient Acharyas like Charaka, Sushruta, and Kashyapa described detailed protocols for women’s wellness, focusing on preventive, promotive, curative, and holistic management.
The department integrates Ayurvedic wisdom with modern gynecology and obstetrics, ensuring safe motherhood, fertility care, and comprehensive women’s health management.
