The foundation of a family's general well-being is its female members. The phrase "Healthy women, Healthy world" refers to the idea that women are the guardians of family health and are essential to preserving the general well-being and health of the community. The term "Artava" in Ayurveda refers to menstrual blood. The two seasons of Ritukala (ovulation period) and Rajakal (menstruation period) in women may be the cause of Artava. The three energies known as Tridoshas-Pitta, Kapha, and Vata-that are classified under the seven Dhatus govern the human body. These Dhatus are also Updhatus. Menstrual blood, or artava, is one of Rasa Dhatu's Updhatus [1]. Women's hormonal status can be determined by examining the unique features of menstrual blood, including its physiological and pathological variations, which are referred to as Shudhartava and Artavdhusti, respectively, in Ayurvedic classics. Shudhartava is essential to preserving women's reproductive health. Infertility may result from Artava or menstrual abnormalities like dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia, amenorrhoea, etc., or uterine disorders like endometriosis, adenomyosis, uterine fibroids, etc., when Artava is not exactly the same as the highlights of Shudhartava mentioned in the classics. Colour, texture, a particular scent, quantity, and other related characteristics, such as the type of pain, are explained in Ayurvedic classics. Therefore, we can only determine the disease linked to menstruation by observing variations in menstrual blood.Therefore, research on Artava and Artavdhusti is crucial for the diagnosis of pathological conditions involving the female reproductive system.
