Intrauterine Enema (Uttarbasti) with Yoga Therapy in the Successful Management of Unilateral Fallopian Tube Blockage: A Case Report

Infertility is one of the most common problems encountered by gynaecologists in daily practice. It significantly affects an individual's social, familial, physical, and psychological well-being. This is a case study of a 30-year-old female diagnosed with a unilateral (left) cornual end block of the fallopian tube. In addition to specific internal Ayurvedic medications and Yogic practices, an intrauterine enema (Uttarbasti) with Apamargakshara Taila (5 mL) was administered for five days each month for five months. The internal medications included Pushpadhanwa Rasa and Laghumanjishthadi Kwatha, and the Yogic therapy of Kapalabhati. Assessment was done using Hysterosalpingography (HSG) before and after the treatment. The pre-treatment HSG confirmed the presence of a left fallopian tube blockage, while the follow-up HSG after five treatment cycles indicated that both fallopian tubes were patent. This case suggests that Uttarbasti, in combination with internal Ayurvedic medications and Yogic therapy, may be effective in managing fallopian tube blockages.
