Expert Care by Dr. Satish Sawale at Dnyan Raj’s TRUE Health Care, Nerul, Navi Mumbai
Constipation is not merely the absence of daily bowel movement. In Ayurveda, it is a Vata-dominant disorder involving impaired Apana Vayu, weakened Agni (digestive fire), disturbed gut motility, and emotional stress factors.
Modern lifestyle, hormonal transitions, dietary errors, suppressed natural urges, irregular sleep, and chronic stress have made constipation a common yet underestimated root cause of multiple diseases.
At Dnyan Raj’s TRUE Health Care, Nerul, Ayurvedic physician Dr. Satish Sawale offers individualized, safe, and long-term non-habit forming solutions for constipation across all life stages—without dependency on laxatives.
Why Constipation Must Be Treated Differently in Each Age Group
Ayurveda strongly emphasizes that the cause of constipation varies with age, physiology, hormones, occupation, and mental stress. Hence, one medicine cannot fit all.
Below is how constipation manifests differently in each population—and how it is successfully managed under expert Ayurvedic supervision.

10. Constipation After Hospitalization and During or After Cancer Treatment (Chemotherapy & Radiation)
Constipation is extremely common yet deeply distressing in patients who have recently undergone hospitalization, major illness, surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy.
In such cases, constipation is not isolated—it reflects systemic weakness, tissue depletion, and disturbed physiological intelligence of the body.
Unique Pathophysiology (Ayurvedic View)
From an Ayurvedic standpoint, this condition involves:
- Severe Agni Mandya (digestive fire suppression)
- Vata Prakopa due to tissue depletion (Dhatukshaya)
- Dryness of colon caused by radiation
- Chemotherapy-induced gut mucosal damage
- Long-term use of opioids, antiemetics, steroids
- Loss of appetite and fear of eating
- Emotional trauma, anxiety, and uncertainty
Ayurveda classifies this as:
“Bala-hani, Agni-nasha and Apana Vata avarodha following Shodhana-like insult.”
This category requires extreme clinical maturity and therapeutic restraint.
Constipation During Chemotherapy Cycles
Common contributing factors:
- Anti-nausea medications
- Reduced food intake
- Altered gut microbiome
- Dehydration
- Immobility
- Suppressed urges due to weakness
Patients often suffer from:
- Hard stools
- Painful evacuation
- Incomplete bowel emptying
- Abdominal bloating
- Fear of straining
Constipation After Radiation Therapy
Radiation causes:
- Dryness and fibrosis of intestinal lining
- Reduced peristalsis
- Heat-induced Pitta–Vata imbalance
- Chronic bowel irregularity

- Burning sensation
- Flatulence
- Loss of appetite
- Fatigue
- Weight loss
