Developing an Assessment Protocol in Ayurvedic Research for Hyperemesis Gravidarum with Special Reference to Garbhini Chardi
Abstract: Garbhini Chardi (nausea and vomiting in pregnancy) is described in Ayurvedic texts as one of the Vyakta Garbha Lakshanas – early physiological signs indicating pregnancy. However, when this symptom becomes excessive, persistent, or distressing, it may transition from a normal event to a pathological condition, requiring timely intervention to safeguard maternal and fetal health. In advanced stages, it leads to day-to-day incapacitation, weight loss, dehydration, and metabolic disturbances – clinically …
