Clinical features of ITP are ecchymosis and petechiae or thrombocytopenia incidentally found on a routine CBC. Bleeding disorders are explained in classics under the heading of <em>Raktapitta</em>.  ITP can be correlated with <em>Tiryaka Raktapitta</em> as in this disorder. It is <em>tridoshaja vayadhi</em> and its manifestation will be subcutaneous bleeding. In this study, a 45 years old female patient had complaints of bleeding from gums and heavy menstrual bleeding for 4 years was treated with <em>Guduchi Kwatha</em> and <em>Aamlaki churna</em>, <em>Shatavari churna,</em> <em>Vata churna</em>, <em>Nimba Arka</em>, fresh <em>Papaya patra swarasa</em> for 6 months. Significant improvement was observed in patient condition and blood reports and platelet count is stable without any allopathic medications.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>}, number={1}, journal={International Journal of Ayurvedic Medicine}, author={Chaudhari, Atul L and A Kumbar, Prakash and Krishna, Rinjin G and Kajalben, Patel}, year={2022}, month={Apr.}, pages={233–237} }
