Abstract: Uterine fibroids are the most prevalent solid benign tumours in women of reproductive age. Histological, this tumour is made up of smooth muscle and fibrous connective tissue and is known as uterine leiomyoma, myoma, or fibromyoma. Uterine fibroid symptoms have a detrimental influence on physical and social activities, women's health-related quality of life, and job productivity. Although postmenopausal leiomyomas are smaller and fewer in number.
Though uterine fibroids are not malignant, they can cause a variety of symptoms such as dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia, metrorrhagia, and lower back pain. Ayurvedic literature discuss a variety of clinical disorders that resemble fibroids. Due of its muscular origin, sluggish development may be superior to Granthi/Arbud in Garbhashaya. In today's fast-paced world, junk food consumption, lack of exercise, and other factors have resulted in the establishment of Agnivaishamya and Aama. This, in turn, vitiates Doshas like Kapha and Vata, as well as Dushyas like Rasa, Raktha, Mamsa, Medasand Arthava, resulting in Dhatwagnimandya and the creation of Garbhashaya Granthi.
