In Ayurveda cancer can be co related with ARBUDA. Signs and symptoms of pre and post cancerous stages can be observed under different conditions like Gulma (Cystic growth), Apachi (Benign growth), Gandmala (Lymphatic growth) etc. Vitiated Doshas afflict Rakta, medo and mamsa dhatus and cause Arbuda. Pathogenesis in ayurveda is explained on the bases of tridoshas. Agni or pitta that resides in each and every cell of the body is responsible for digestion and metabolism on cellular level. Diminished or decreased Agni is inversely proportional to the related issue and therefore in Arbuda decreased state of Dhatwagni will cause excessive growth of the tissue.

Charak Samhita says ” If vata predominantly associated with Kapha obstructs the circulation channels and moves in all directions in the body then this obstructed vata causes Shwasa.
Ashtang Hridyam has similar concept as Charaka.

Full sleep
We know that after the birth of a child you have little sleep. Children mostly wake up at night and sleep a lot during the day. In such a situation, as soon as their child falls asleep, they begin to do their household chores and also stay awake at night in child care. We recommend that you sleep with the child whenever the time is available. Also, share some responsibility of seeing the child at night with your husband or any other member of the household, so that you can get time to sleep and you can complete your sleep.
