| Elaboration | Various factors either dietary or behavioural affecting the well being of the foetus resulting in a miscarriage, abortion or stillbirth is called Garbhopaghaatakara Bhaava. This condition can lead to accumulation of Rakta in the uterus and manifest as an abscess ( Vidradhi ), which can be serious and result in maternal crisis. It should be handled as emergency and utmost care should be taken as the three Dosha are vitiated and the woman is sapped of her energy, depleted Ojas and Praan`a. |
