It also serves as a vehicle for variety of medications by substituting drug decoctions for water and drug powder for adjuvant. In 28 Yawagu preparations explained by Acharya Charaka in “Apamarga tanduliya” chapter, Panchkol siddha yawagu is first one which has properties to stimulate digestion power and cures colic pain.

On the basis of clinical findings, the case was diagnosed as Hypomenrrhoea with dysmenorrhea.
