Uttar Basti in Ayurveda: Uses, Procedure and Safety

What Uttar Basti is, the classical conditions it is used for in women and men, how a sitting works, and the precautions the doctor checks first.

Key Takeaways
Uttar Basti instils a few millilitres of medicated oil or ghrita into the uterine cavity in women, or the urethra in men, under aseptic conditions.
It is a local therapy within Panchakarma, used alongside internal Ayurvedic Medicine and, for many patients, a rectal Basti course.
For women, sittings are timed in the days right after the period ends. A course runs 3 to 6 sittings, repeated over selected cycles.
An intrauterine sitting costs ₹4,000 and a urethral sitting ₹5,000, at Ghorpadi and Manjri Bk, Hadapsar.
Not done during pregnancy, with an active infection or fever, or with unexplained bleeding. Fever, foul-smelling discharge or worsening pain after a sitting needs immediate review, and our team tells every patient this before the first sitting. Investigations such as ultrasound, hormone tests or a semen analysis stay with your gynaecologist, urologist or fertility specialist.

Uttar Basti is a classical Panchakarma procedure in which a small, measured dose of medicated oil or ghee (ghrita) is instilled into the uterus through the cervix in women, or into the urethra in men. At AMRUT AYU CARE™ it is planned by M.D. Ayurveda doctors after an examination and a review of your reports, at our Ghorpadi and Manjri Bk, Hadapsar branches. This page explains where it is used, how a sitting works and what is checked first. Call 8698282507.

What Uttar Basti Is

Basti is a medicated enema, and Uttara means higher or upper. Classical texts describe Uttar Basti as the Basti given through the genital or urinary passage rather than the rectum, so that medicine reaches the pelvic organs locally.

It works together with the rest of a Panchakarma plan: internal Ayurvedic Medicine, diet and, often, a rectal Basti course that settles Vata, the dosha that governs the pelvic region.

Where Uttar Basti Is Used

The doctor decides whether Uttar Basti suits you after an examination and a review of your reports. Classical indications fall into three groups. It is not a treatment for kidney stones, prostate disease or urinary infections, which need your urologist.

Women: cycle-related
Aartava Kshaya, scanty or irregular cycles, and PCOS or PCOD care, where the physician judges local therapy appropriate.
Women: Yoni Vyapad
Classical Yoni Vyapad presentations, and fertility support care planned alongside your gynaecologist's own treatment.
Men: Shukra Dushti
Presentations such as low sperm count and low motility, where a recent semen analysis guides the plan.

How a Sitting Works

Consultation and reports
The doctor takes your history, examines you and reviews any scans, blood tests or semen analysis you already hold.
Preparation
A light, easily digested diet in the days before, and for some patients a short rectal Basti course or oil massage first.
Cycle timing
For women, sitting dates are fixed in the days right after the period ends. For men, timing is set around the treatment plan.
The sitting
Under aseptic conditions, a few millilitres of warm medicated oil or ghrita are instilled with a fine sterile catheter. The instillation takes a few minutes, followed by supervised rest before you leave.
Review
The doctor reviews your response, adjusts internal Ayurvedic Medicine and decides whether a further cycle is worthwhile.

Uttar Basti Cost and Where It Is Done

An intrauterine Uttar Basti sitting costs ₹4,000 and a urethral sitting ₹5,000. The total depends on the number of sittings and cycles the doctor advises, and it is agreed with you before you start.

Uttar Basti runs at our Ghorpadi (Main) and Manjri Bk, Hadapsar branches, where full Panchakarma facilities operate. Consultation is at the Friday Men and Women Health OPD.

After a Sitting

Rest

Aftercare

A standard course runs 3 to 6 sittings on consecutive days. The doctor often repeats the course across selected cycles, reviewing your response between each.
