A postnatal period is the period beginning immediately after the separation of placenta and extending up to six weeks, otherwise called as puerperium or puerperal period. Postnatal care is named as Sutika Paricharya in Ayurvedic classics. Garbhini and Sutika Paricharya are very well described by our ancient Ayurvedic scholars in their respective Samhitas.

Great emphasis has been laid on post natal care i.e. Sutika Paricharya, as during this period she restores her health and strength.
