ABSTRACT

Siddha medicine, a traditional Indian system of medicine, stands as a testament to the ancient wisdom of the Tamil civilization. Endometriosis is a chronic disease associated with severe, life-impacting pain during periods and related gynaecological disorders. The focus of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic value of Siddha Medicine Perungaya Chooranam in alleviating Soothaga Soolai (due to endometriosis). Method: a descriptive case series was carried out at the Government Siddha Medical College & Hospital in Palayamkottai involving 20 Female patients (Mean age 31.4 ± 5.2 years) reported having Soothaga Soolai (due to endometriosis). Participants were prescribed with Perungaya Chooranam (1000mg, twice a day) for 90 days orally. Clinical symptoms such as dysmennorhoea, chronic pelvic pain, dyspareunia, dyschezia and other systemic symptoms were evaluated before and after treatment. Results: Substantial improvements were observed following treatments with 75% of patients observing an overall decrease in pain severity from stage III to I, with an improvement seen in gastrointestinal and hormonal symptoms alongside pain reduction. The statistical analysis demonstrated noteworthy reductions in the majority of complaints (p < 0.05). Conclusion: This case series illustrates that Perungaya Chooranam delivers a significant reduction in pain and associated symptoms was observed, with 75% of patients reporting improvement from Stage III to Stage I in pain severity. The outcomes offer a call to futher investigations into Siddha medicines role in contemporary therapeutic practices for managing gynaecological conditions.
