In Ayurveda, dyspareunia is associated with imbalances in the Vata, Pitta, and Kapha Doshas:
- Vata Imbalance: Leads to dryness, pain, and reduced elasticity in the reproductive tissues.
- Pitta Imbalance: Causes inflammation, heat, and irritation in the vaginal region.
- Kapha Imbalance: Contributes to stagnation, swelling, or infections.
Ayurvedic treatments aim to detoxify the body, balance doshas, and restore tissue health for sustainable relief.

A diet rich in hydrating foods like fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats is recommended. Warm, nourishing meals with spices like turmeric and ginger are beneficial. Avoid spicy, fried, and processed foods that aggravate Pitta. - Rasayana Therapy:
