Ghrit Kumari Swarasa (Aloe barbadensis Miller’s juice) is popular preparation these days which is indicated as hepatoprotective, appetite enhancer, wound healer, rejuvenator, beneficial for skin and in gynaecological disorders. The present clinical study was done on 15 patients of Kashtartava by getting the reference from bhaishjyatnavali where this drug is mentioned as bhawana dravya of rajahpravartini vati. Each patient was given fresh prepared juice in the dose of 25 ml tid for three menstrual cycles. There was significant relief in intensity of pain (t=3.500) and associated symptoms like giddiness, nausea, vomiting and anorexia but insignificant relief in duration of pain and increase in amount of flow. These results are may be due to rasayana effect of the drug and thus increasing pain threshold and giving best nutrition to the body, also katu vipaka dilates the pathway and liquefy the clots. It also decreases synthesis of prostaglandins. It can be recommended to weak and poor patients as this is a cheap product, easily available, easy to prepare and itself a balanced diet and rasayana drug resulting in good management of Kashtartava.
