Background: Female infertility treatment has witnessed global growth in recent years,1 yet despite advancements in medical strategies, many couples still face unsuccessful treatment attempts.2 Complementary and alternative medicine, such as Ayurveda, has garnered attention as an alternative option for infertility treatment, offering a range of inpatient and outpatient interventions. Case report: This report highlights the case of a 31-year-old woman suffering from Vandhyatva due to Artava Kshaya, trying to conceive since the past 9 years. After one natural conception followed by a spontaneous abortion, and six years of unsuccessful conventional fertility treatments, the patient turned to Ayurvedic care. Undergoing a multi-staged Ayurvedic treatment, various Panchakarma therapies including Vamana, Virechana, Yogabasti, Nasya, Matra-Basti and Uttarabasti, including oral medication, dietary and lifestyle adjustments, and spiritual elements, the patient successfully conceived and delivered a healthy baby in 2023. Conclusion: Ayurveda presents a promising avenue for addressing infertility when conventional treatments fail. However, the evidence supporting Ayurvedic interventions remains limited and necessitates robust clinical trials. Emphasizing holistic health improvement, the Ayurvedic approach to fertility aims to enhance overall well-being, potentially increasing the likelihood of successful pregnancy outcomes. Further research is warranted on large scale to establish the efficacy and safety of Ayurvedic interventions in female infertility management.
