Researchers presented a case study exploring the effectiveness of Ayurveda in treating primary infertility. Dr. Manish Bartwal and Dr. Shivani Kalouni reported the experience of a patient who faced difficulties conceiving. The treatment included the use of herbs, dietary adjustments, and lifestyle practices, aiming to balance the doshas and improve reproductive health. The patient showed significant improvements in her menstrual cycles and, after treatment, was able to conceive.
