Abstract

The mother who has just given birth to a baby is termed as Sutika and the care during this phase is termed as Sutika Paricharya according to Ayurveda. Sutika period lasts for 6 weeks. During this period she should need more rest and diet which increases the digestive power, alleviates the Vata and provides strength to the body. Chances of infection are more during puerperal phase so she needs more antiseptic precautions. By proper post natal care she regains the energy and strength after pregnancy and delivery and helps to attain anatomical & physiological pre pregnancy stage. This review study is managed to fulfill this purpose.
