Brief Summary

*Madhumeha* isa clinical entity described in Ayurveda as one of the types of*Vataja* *Prameha*.Regarding this disease Ayurvedic scholars have mentioned that *Madhumeh*ais caused by aggravation of *Vata*, the patient passes excess urinewhich is sweet, astringent in taste, slightly turbid and pale incolor. Describing the *Prameha*, the cardinal feature of *Prameha* hasbeen mentioned as *Avile Prabhuta Mutrata.* *Madhumeha* iscaused by*Dhatukshaya* manifests as thin and asthenicindividual due to loss of *Oja* or imbalance in *Oja.* In *MargavaranjanyaMadhumeha* the vitiated *Kapha*and *Meda* obstructthe passage of Vata.

*Madhumeha* can be correlated with a similar disease described in modernmedical sciences as Diabetes mellitus, which is a syndrome with disorderedmetabolism and inappropriate hyperglycemia, due to either a deficiency ofinsulin secretion or to a combination of insulin resistance and inadequateinsulin secretion to compensate.
