improve fertility in both men and women. Lakshmanarishta is mentioned
in pradarachikitsa due to its acute pittasamana properties.
‘Athyarthava’ is brought on by a disregulated pachaka pitta which
affects the bhrajaka and ranjaka pitta. The seeta and sthambhana
properties are capable of regulating the excessive teekshna guna of
pitta and thereby regulating hormonal function in both males and
females. After the initial stage of correcting the agni and vatavaigunya
in an individual, Lakshmanarishta is specifically usefull in correcting the
dhatwagni that contributes to the formation of healthy and functional
Sukradhatu.
