Summary of article contents:
Primary dysmenorrhea is a lower abdominal pain occurring during the menstrual cycle which is not associated with other diseases or pathology. It hinders the day-to-day activities of women. Treatment of primary dysmenorrhea aims to relieve pain and other symptoms. Menstrosap is an Ayurvedic proprietary medicine manufactured by Sitaram Ayurveda Private Ltd. Thrissur for dysmenorrhea. The medicine is a combination of Sapthasaram Kahayam (decoction), Hinguvachadi Choornam (powder), Sesame oil and Ricinus oil. To explain the efficacy and mechanism of action, clinical trials and knowledge of bio-medical compounds in the product are mandatory. This type of study is the need of the hour for better scientific validation. To explain the mode of action of the product scientifically, Gas Chromatographic- Mass Spectrometric analysis was done. GC-MS revealed nine compounds that explain scientifically the mode of action of the drug. Among the nine compounds identified, six compounds show anti-inflammatory activity. Menstrosap also shows the presence of omega-7 fatty acids which also helps to reduce the symptoms of dysmenorrhea.
