Garbha Vigyana

Garbha Vigyana (Garbha Vidya) is an important aspect of Ayurveda that deals with the science of conception, pregnancy, and childbirth. This branch focuses on ensuring the health and well-being of both the mother and the developing fetus, aiming for a healthy and balanced individual right from conception.
