Maharishi Ayurveda
Lodhra Churna by Maharishi Ayurveda is the pure powdered bark of Lodhra (Symplocos racemosa), the classical astringent for women's wellness. It is traditionally taken to steady heavy or draining monthly flow, to balance excess discharge, to tone the tissues of the reproductive tract, and to support clear, calm skin. Made into a paste, it is also a traditional face-care ingredient. The name Lodhra is that of the honoured pale bark of women's classical care.
Ayurvedic Significance
The classics name Lodhra the prime astringent of the Artavavaha Srotas, the channels of the monthly cycle, steadying flow and firming tissue where Pitta and Kapha have loosened them. Its cooling astringency also settles the skin, which is why it appears in classical complexion pastes.

+What is Maharishi Ayurveda Lodhra Churna used for?
Maharishi Ayurveda Lodhra Churna (50gm) is a pure Lodhra powder taken to support women's reproductive wellness, a healthy menstrual cycle, healthy skin and the body's natural handling of excess discharge, and used externally for the skin. Built on Lodhra (Symplocos racemosa), it is from Maharishi Ayurveda, a respected Ayurvedic house. Traditionally it is used to support:
Women's reproductive wellness and a healthy, balanced menstrual cycle
The body's natural handling of excess or heavy discharge
Clear, healthy, toned skin (internally and as a face pack)
+What is Lodhra, and what is in Lodhra Churna?
Lodhra (Symplocos racemosa) is a classical Ayurvedic herb especially prized for women's health and the skin, and Churna means powder. Its astringent, cooling bark is traditionally valued for toning the female reproductive system, supporting a balanced cycle and the body's handling of excess discharge, and for clear, toned skin. By offering pure Lodhra powder, Maharishi Ayurveda provides this prized women's-and-skin herb in its traditional, versatile form, taken internally with water or honey, or used externally in a face pack.
+Is Lodhra Churna good for women's health and skin?
Supporting women's reproductive wellness and healthy skin is exactly what Lodhra Churna is most valued for. Taken as advised, Lodhra is traditionally used to support a healthy, balanced menstrual cycle, support the female reproductive system and the body's natural handling of excess or heavy discharge and support clear, toned skin (internally and as a face pack). Its astringent, cooling nature underlies both uses. It offers supportive care; heavy, very irregular or unusual bleeding, persistent discharge, or any gynaecological or skin concern should be assessed by a doctor, with the powder used as supportive care under guidance.
+How do you take or use Maharishi Ayurveda Lodhra Churna?
Lodhra Churna can be used internally or externally. Internally it is usually taken in a small amount, often around half to one teaspoon (about 3 to 5g) once or twice daily, with water, honey or milk. Externally it is used in a face pack. A simple approach:
Internally: take the measured amount with warm water, honey or milk, as advised.
As a face pack: mix a little powder with rose water or honey, apply to the skin, leave 15 to 20 minutes, then rinse.
Confirm the internal amount and duration with a practitioner, especially for menstrual concerns. For the face pack, patch-test first.
+How does Lodhra Churna work?
Lodhra Churna works through the astringent, cooling qualities of Lodhra. In Ayurveda, menstrual irregularity, excess discharge and heated or lax skin are linked to aggravated Pitta and Kapha in the reproductive system and skin, and Lodhra tones and supports the female reproductive tissues, supports a balanced cycle and the body's handling of excess discharge, cools aggravated Pitta and, on the skin, tones and clears. As the reproductive system and skin are toned and Pitta cooled, women's wellness and clear skin are traditionally supported. This astringent, cooling, toning action is why Lodhra is prized for women's health and the skin, used as supportive care.
+Which dosha does Lodhra Churna balance?
Lodhra mainly settles aggravated Kapha (excess discharge and heaviness) and Pitta (heat and excess flow) in the reproductive system and skin, with its astringent, cooling nature. Excess discharge, menstrual imbalance and heated or lax skin are classically linked to aggravated Kapha and Pitta, which Lodhra's astringent, cooling qualities settle and tone. By clearing Kapha, cooling Pitta and toning the tissues, it supports women's reproductive wellness, a balanced cycle and clear, toned skin. This makes it well suited to excess-discharge, heated, lax-tissue, Kapha-Pitta tendencies, used as supportive care under guidance.
+Can Lodhra Churna be used as a face pack for skin?
Yes, Lodhra is classically valued for the skin, and Lodhra Churna can be used externally as a face pack. Mixed with a little rose water, honey or water into a paste and applied to the skin, it is traditionally used to tone and refresh the skin, support a clear complexion and soothe heated skin, thanks to its astringent, cooling nature. Leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes, then rinse. Patch-test first if your skin is sensitive, and avoid broken or irritated skin. For persistent skin problems, see a doctor or dermatologist. A practitioner can advise. You can buy Lodhra Churna from AyurvedaBay.com, with worldwide shipping.
+Is Maharishi Ayurveda Lodhra Churna safe, and are there precautions?
Lodhra Churna is generally well tolerated when taken or used as directed, but a few precautions apply:
Internally, take only the advised amount; being astringent, too much may be drying or constipating.
It is supportive care; heavy, very irregular or unusual bleeding, persistent discharge, or any gynaecological or skin concern should be assessed by a doctor.
For the face pack, patch-test first and avoid broken or irritated skin.
Pregnant or nursing women, children, and anyone on medication, should consult a practitioner first.
It is supportive care and is not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any disease.
