Abstract

Pregnancy is a long and very special journey for a woman. It is a journey of dramatic physical, psychological and social changes, of becoming a mother, of redefining family relationship. Garbhiniparicharya or antenatal care is the unique contribution of Ayurveda in the field of obstetrics. The increased caloric requirement is to the extent of 300 over the non-pregnant state during second half of pregnancy. The increased demand needs to be compensated by exogenous supply of diet or drugs. Masanumasikagarbhiniparicharya has been advised to get proper nutrition and good progeny by Acharyas. Acharyacharaka has adviced use of anuvasanabasti with oil, prepared with madhuragana. Yoni pichu of this oil should be given for lubrication of garbhasthana (cervix) and garbhamarga (vaginal canal and perineum) to sukhaprasava.
