Abstract

Diabetes uniquely affects pregnant women through the threats its poses to maternal and fetal health. Acharya kashyapa has mentioned that physical and psychological disorders of a Garbhini are similar to any other individual due to similarity in Dosha and Dushya, but their treatment differ in Garhbini. Ancient Acharyas had not given any specific description of Garbhini Prameha.Present article frame the possible pathogenesis of Garbhini Prameha by considering the Dosha and Dushya of Prameha in Garbhini and a screening method for preventing it through Prakriti Parikshan. Focusing on Garbhini, Dosh, Dushya, Nidaan, Samprapti, Roop, Updrava and Chikitsa of Prameha was studied from ayurvedic texts. Modern literature about gestational diabetes was also collected and studied. Acharyas mentioned Garbhini to be fit for Vrmhana and indicated Hridya, Drav, Madhur, Snigdha Ahaar for her. All these increases Kapha Dosha which is also the main responsible Dosha for Prameha.At the same time they contraindicated Atitrapana and Guru Ahaar to her.So, if a Garbhini takes Kafvardhak Ahaarvihaar other than indicated or Prakritivirudh Ahaar she may be diseased by Prameha. Her Dooshit Kapha lead to Dushti of Dhatus and Updhatus resulting in fetal complications.

Garbhini receiving Kafvradhak Ahaarvihaar for her health maintainance and fetal growth are more prone to Prameha. They can be prevented by screening them for their Prakriti and managed if diseased by Sanshaman Chikitsa mentioned for Prameha after studying their constitution and Dosh Dushya Dushti through Ayurveda.
