The value of breast milk for newborns is well-referenced in classical Ayurvedic texts. According to a remark by Acharya Charaka, nursing should begin the moment the baby is born.The value of colostrum and breast milk for newborns has long been recognized in modern research. Today Agalactia or hypogalactia, also known as stanyakshaya, is a fairly prevalent condition, particularly among primiparous women. In conjunction with its chikitsa and causative elements, the two states are jointly discussed in ayurveda samhitas. The acharyas defined a variety of stanyajanana, stanyavardhaka medicines, as well as stanyavardhakaaahaar and bhava(factors), and they have proven to be of tremendous relevance over the years. The goal of the current study is to examine the literary Stanyakshaya/stanyanaasha description and determine the likely mechanism of action of the herbal galactogogues described there, based on their pharmacological characteristics and chemical make-up.
