Abstract

The inability to procreate is considered as a grim issue even today. The person devoid of a progeny is compared with the tree without branches, in Ayurveda. The concept of Garbha (foetus) and crucial components of conception are explained in detail in all major texts of Ayurveda. Acharya Sushruta has explained four important factors for conception as Garbha sambhava samagri. All these factors in their normal state result in a healthy offspring. Their absence or malfunction will lead to no or defective Garbha. Failure to conceive should be studied from all angles and all possibilities in a couple, especially the female. Before treating infertility, it is essential to know about factors required for conception and various factors responsible for Vandhyatva, according to Ayurveda. In present review, a detailed description of ‘Beeja’ i.e., Shukra and Artava is carried out.
