Best Ayurvedic Treatment for Infertility in Kerala: What to Expect

Then Kerala has another particular advantage which gets less mention than it should. The Panchakarma tradition is one of the more advanced in India; oil-based techniques are rehearsed over years, and the climate itself has throughout history been integrated into the therapy. From mid-July into August comes Karkidakam, the month of monsoon in Kerala, which is — at least traditionally — a time for rejuvenation therapies. The climate is cooler, the body more open to suggestions of solidarity and family has arranged treatment around it since time immemorial.

A standard fertility Panchakarma treatment starts with a preparatory stage. You consume increasingly larger doses of medicated ghee for more than a few days, generally 7 or so days, which is why the beginning is sometimes described as unglamorous. Next, according to your case it could be a purgative step like Virechana and focuses on Vasti; the medicated oil or decoction enema that Ayurveda sees as pivotal for reproductive health. In women, where uttara vasti may be indicated which is should obviously only in the hands of a qualified and registered practitioner! When tension is clearly in the picture, you can often find Shirodhara — the slow running of warm oil across the forehead.

People expect something harsh. Generally this is a calm of tranquil rooms, heated oil and one or two schedule days of care.

And this is what distinguishes a natural infertility treatment in Kerala from a prescription you might receive at an over-the-counter pharmacy. Your dates matter again because the therapy is timed to your cycle and these environments are designed to cool down an alarmingly hi-strung nervous system.
