AYURVEDIC VIEW
Poor diet and inefficient digestion are main factors for these disorders. Toxins are produced in body due to improperly digested food. These toxins circulate by blood to deep tissues and channels where they causes blockage and stagnation. This causes aggravation of vata dhatu(air)dosha and rakt(blood) dhatu. Aggravated vata bring impaired blood in the channels carrying the Raj (menstrual blood) which end in increased menstrual blood flow.
