Stree Vandhyatva is defined as not being able to get pregnant inspite having unprotected intercourse for at least a year for most of the couples. Beeja particularly ‘streebeeja’ is the only entity which don’t have any alternative because it is the important component which resembles a family in future as their own offspring. Soumanasya Garbhjananam which reflects peace of mind causes production of Garbha. As per Acharya Charaka, this is a one of the Adravya chikitsa.
