Dr. V. Gnana Prasanna* and Dr. Ch. Sridurga

Abstract

As per Ayurveda there are 7 types of dhatus. Depletion (or) decrease of these dhatus is termed as kshaya. Shukra dhatu is one among the seven dhatus. It gets nourishment by majja dhatu. Its depletion leads to (severe discomforts)(or)uneasiness to the body. Mainly leads to male infertility. Shukra also provides Dhairya, Prasannata (happiness), Bala(strenth), Praharsha and bija for garbhotpatti. As a result of dushita dhatu poshan, shukra dhatu does not get nourished. Main aim of this article is to correct (or) to improve the quality of shukra through one of the classical yogas viz Dhatri Phaladi yoga from Basavarajeeyam. The principal ingredients of this formulation are Amalaki churna, Ikshu rasa, sita and madhu. The preparation of the said yoga involves Bhavana of Amalaki churna using Ikshu rasa as bhavana dravya and q.s madhu for pill making. Sugarcane is benifical for both male and female reproductive health restoration due to the presence of essential nutrients and minerals etc. Amalaki is an excellent elixir and has got rasayana properties. It is jeevanam, preenanam and dhatupustikaram.
