Stillbirth - #18548
A few months ago, my sister experienced a stillbirth at 8 months of pregnancy, and our entire family has been struggling to cope with this devastating loss. She had a healthy pregnancy with no major complications, but suddenly, she stopped feeling fetal movements, and an ultrasound confirmed that the baby had no heartbeat. She went through a painful induced labor, and the doctors couldn’t provide a clear explanation for what went wrong. I read that stillbirth can be caused by umbilical cord accidents, placental insufficiency, infections, or unknown medical reasons, but I want to understand if Ayurveda has insights into why stillbirths happen and how women can prevent pregnancy complications naturally. My sister is now emotionally and physically drained, and she is scared of trying to conceive again. Could her loss be linked to an underlying Vata or Pitta imbalance? Does Ayurveda offer any herbs or therapies to promote healing, strengthen the uterus, and prepare for a healthy pregnancy in the future? I have read that Shatavari, Ashoka, and Brahmi are beneficial for reproductive health, emotional healing, and uterine strength—would these help in naturally preparing the body for another pregnancy? Are there any Ayurvedic cleansing practices, emotional support therapies, or post-pregnancy recovery techniques that can help in coping with stillbirth and ensuring a healthy pregnancy in the future? Since I prefer natural fertility and emotional healing solutions, I am looking for Ayurvedic treatments that can provide support for stillbirth recovery, hormonal balance, and reproductive health naturally. Please provide detailed Ayurvedic insights on stillbirth, its possible causes, and Ayurvedic approaches to pregnancy care.
