- Brief Summary
Hypothyroidismis one of the most common functional disorders of the thyroid gland. A state of Hypothyroidism can be dueto primary disease of the thyroid gland itself or lack of pituitary TSH[Thyroid Stimulating Hormone].A keen insight to the pathogenesis ofhypothyroidism according to the principles of *Ayurveda*, we find that it is basically caused due to dysfunctioningof the ‘*Agni (dhatvagni)’.*If we compare various symptoms of hypothyroidismand *Kaphaja Pandu*, we find that manysigns and symptoms can be correlated with each other, for example, paleness and dryness of skin, hair fall,hoarseness of voice, cold intolerance, modest weight gain, reduced appetite,lethargy, somnolence, puffy face with oedematous eyelids, nonpitting pretibial oedemaetc. So hypothyroidism is similar to *Pandu*especially to ‘*Kaphaja Pandu*’. *Gomutra* and *Haritaki* arehaving *Katu-Tikta-Kashaya Rasa*predominance and *Ushna Veerya*which actas *Kapha Hara* and may help tobreakdown the pathology of *Kaphaja Pandu*and hypothyroidism. For this purpose, “*GOMUTRA HARITAKI*†mentioned by *Aacharya Charak* in *Pandu Chikitsa* is selected.
