Abstract

Ayurveda is an ancient Indian system of medicine whose major goal is to keep  healthy people well and cure diseased people. That is why, from ancient times,  people from all over the world have been looking to India. Health, according to  Ayurveda, is a state in which the dosha, agni, dhaatu, mala, and all physiological  processes are in a homeostatic state, and the soul, sense organs, and mind are all in  a state of absolute wellbeing. The Vatadosha is the most significant of the three  doshas, and it is in charge of controlling all types of movements. Aahara is turned  into saara and kitta part when the food is digested by agni with the help of  samanavayu. With the harmonization of other Prana and Vyanavayus, apanavayu eliminates the kitta part of food. In pakvadhana, the apanavayu passes through the  sroni (pelvis), basti (urinary bladder), medhra (external genital equipment of each  sex), and uru (thighs). It aids samirana (flatus), sakrit (feces), mutra (urine), sukra (semen), garbha (foetus), and artava (menstrual fluid) removal.An attempt has  been made in this article to comprehend the physiological significance of apanvayu in micturition. The core resources for this study were gathered from Ayurvedic classics with available commentaries, as well as modern medical science text  books for a better grasp of the subject.&nbsp
