Abstract

Shwetapradar, or leucorrhoea, is a common gynecological issue affecting women of all ages, particularly in childbearing or reproductive years. It can be caused by various factors such as pelvic inflammatory diseases, fungal infections, cervicitis, anemia, and diabetes. The disease is usually nonpathological but can be significant if profuse, foul-smelling, or blood-stained. Yoni vyapadas which are caused by Kapha or Vatakaphaja doshas are the main causative factors of Shweta pradara. It also depends on the Nidana, which may lead to vitiation of any of the Doshas. The study aims to substantiate the Nidana and Samprapti of Shweta Pradara, a form of Ayurvedic treatment, to provide alternative therapies for those suffering from this condition.
