Abstract

Cells other than Spermatozoa (Non-sperm cellular elements) like immature cells, leucocytes, RBC, particulate debris; amorphous matter and Epithelial cells present in semen greater than 2-4 per ml and agglutinate can be called as Anyadhatusamashrita, which is one among the AshtaShukraDushtiwhich is associated with Nispraja, GarbhaVikruti,Aharshana and Klaibya. AnyadhatuSamrushta is the formed by the vitiation of Kapha and Pitta Doshas. Virechana is the Shodhana procedure that is specific for the elimination of vitiated Pitta and Kaphadoshas. Thus, in the present study, it is hypothesized that Virechana helps in removing Anya Dhatu from the Shukra. In the present study, 30 subjects with Anyadhatusamsrushta found during the retopariksha were subjected Virechana with Trivrtchurna. There was significant (p<0.05) reduction in liquefaction time and viscosity, macrophages, immature cells, epithelial cells, and amorphous matter.

Keywords: Male infertility; Shukradhatu; Anyadhatu Samsrustha; Virechana.
