Author(s):

Aarti Shinde and Prasad Lomt

Abstract:

Rasa dhatu is the term for the vital fluid, also known as plasma that is created during food digestion and sustains a number of physiological processes. It is thought to be the first dhatu to form following digestion and is in charge of providing nourishment for all other dhatus [1]. Rasa dhatu keeps the body hydrated, boosts the immune system, regulates body temperature, and makes it easier for nutrients and oxygen to reach cells.
Aims and Objectives: Artava is the updhatu that comes from rasa, and the proper development and operation of rasa dhatu are essential for controlling the female menstrual cycle. The goal is to determine the pathophysiology of illnesses in women that are dependent on their Rasa Dhatu state.
Methods: Rasa dushti is the primary cause of most health problems that women experience during various stages of life, such as puberty, reproductive age, pregnancy, puerperium, or after menopause. This study includes the effects of Agni, the role of different causative factors, the state of dosha vitiation, and the identification of rasa dhatu dushti symptoms in women with different pathologies [2]. As a result, women's health concerns must be addressed, and they must receive prudent Ayurvedic treatment to enhance their quality of life.
