An Exploratory Study To Evaluate The Effect of Siddharthakadi Basti in Retained Products of Conception

INTRODUCTION

Retained products of conception (RPOC) are a common and treatable complication after delivery or termination of pregnancy. The presence of chorionic villi, indicating the existence of trophoblastic tissue or remnants of the placenta, serves as the key criterion for pathologically diagnosing Retained Products of Conception (RPOC).

This single-arm, open-labeled exploratory study aims to fill this gap by examining the impact of Siddharthakadi basti on RPOC. By delving into the synergistic potential of traditional practices like basti, the study seeks to provide valuable insights into the ayurvedic management of RPOC, potentially offering safer and more effective options for women’s reproductive health.
