Abstract

Introduction: Shukra is considered as the supreme Dhatu, responsible for normal sexual functioning, both procreation as well as sexual potency to cohabit. Acharya has explained the importance of the ultimate DhatuShukra as above, which is must for life and decrease in its quality or quantity may result into many ailments or even death. Ksheena Shukra is an acquired abnormality of Shukra Dhatu. Qualitative as well as quantitative reduction in Shukra Dhatu occurs in it. Sushruta and Vagabhata have mentioned Ksheena Shukra among the Ashtavidha Shukradushti caused by the vitiation of Vata and Pitta Dosha. Ksheena Shukra may be correlated with Oligozoospermia. Oligozoospermia (decrease and abnormality in sperm count) leads to male infertility. These cases are increasing now a days due to sedentary lifestyle including bad food habits. Material and Method: According to Maharishi Chakrpani, in management of Ksheena Shukra, Gokshuradi Vati is mentioned. Gokshuradi Vati is said to be Shukravardhaka by its Vrishya, Rasayana, Brimhana and Anulomana, Tridoshahara properties. Also, it can be given in all seasons. Seeing all these benefits, we have selected Gokshuradi Vati. Result and Discussion: By its Brimhana property, it increases all the Dhatus ultimately it increases the Shukra Dhatu. By this process it will ultimately improve the level of Rasa to Shukra. The Aim of this research paper to find out the Role of Gokshuradi Vati in the management of Ksheen Shukra W.S.R. Oligozoospermia.
