The Ayurvedic view
of the menstrual cycle is: Average menses are
considered to be 4-5 days, moderate flow, moderate
colour, no clots, and no discomfort.
| It
is divided into 3 phases: |
• |
Kapha phase |
• |
Pitta phase |
• |
Vata phase |
If there is any disturbance
in these phases then they lead to infertility.
The main problem with the menstrual cycle is
that the downward descending energy (apana vayu)
is blocked. This causes all sorts of fluctuations
from pain, bloating, dryness anxiety, insomnia,
scanty periods, irregular cycle, clots &
infertility.
