Cervical erosion occurs when the cells lining the inner surface of the cervix grow abnormally on the outer surface. This leads to a transformation from squamous epithelium to columnar epithelium in the cervix. Nowadays, this condition is prevalent among women of reproductive age. This condition could be linked to a concept in Ayurveda known as "Garbhashaya Grivamukhagata Vrana," although direct mention of this term is absent in traditional Ayurvedic texts. The AstangaHrudaya, however, indirectly describes it in relation to the "YonivranayekshanaYantra."Ayurveda, with its comprehensive healing approach, offers a solution to the recurring and chronic nature of cervical erosion. The Ayurvedic approach to managing this condition involves a thorough examination of the patient's history, symptoms, and their constitutional type (Prakriti), as well as the imbalances of the Doshas. The chosen treatment methods and appropriate remedies are determined based on these assessments. This article explores the role of various localized treatments (Sthanik Chikitsa) in managing cervical erosion.
