Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Medical world is concerned about increasing rate of congenital imperfections in the new born which is posing confront to the aim of healthy humanity. Data reveals that 3-5% of all births result in congenital malformations, 20-30% of all infant deaths are due to genetic disorders, and 30-50% of post- natal deaths are due to congenital malformations. 11.1% of pediatric admissions are for children with genetic disorders, 18.5% are hospital -ad missions for genetic causes, and 50% of mental retardation has genetic basis. According modern genetics the causes are largely unknown. But to some extent the environmental factors are held responsible for the mutations that cause genetic disorders. Chromosomal diseases are said to be spontaneous or due to environmental factors or due to new mutations or inheritance. Multifactorial diseases are due to weak inheritance and the assistance of multiple environme- n tal factors. Ayurveda- A complete and holistic health science, not only deal with preventive and curative aspects of health but also has a strong footings in the field of healthy progeny. Shadgarbhakara-bhava have been propounded in the ayurvedic classics viz. Matrija(mother), Pitrija(father), Atmaja(soul), Satmyaja(wholesome practices by mother), Rasaja (diet of the mother) and Satvaja( psycholological health of the parents). Anything that may be Kaayika, Maanasika or Vaachika that causes beeja dushti is considered as Apachaara. Pregnancy is a delicate condition, which is most vulnerable and affected by enormous factors such as Environmental, Psychological or Food habits etc. All these conditions can be considered as Dooshivisha / Garavisha which is also known for its capability to result in congenital deformities. Dooshivisha is are Dhatupradushaka and Sanubhadaka. Garbhopaghaathakara Bhaavaas play a vital role in accum- ula tion of Dooshivisha. Hence considering all these factors an attempt is made to critically study the impact of Doo-shiVi sha as Garbhopaghatakara bhavas on progeny.
