Background: During pregnancy many demands are made by growing fetus, to meet these requirements maternal system has to undergo certain changes. Garbhinichardi (Emesis Gravidarum) is one among them and this has been termed as Gruhita Garbha Lakshanas (Immediate signs of conception) in Ayurvedic clas-sics. Approximately 80 % of pregnant women experience excessive salivation, nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, commonly known as “morning sickness”, which is seen frequently throughout the day. Design: This is single blind pilot study. 30 patients with complaints of Garbhinichardi (Emesis Gravidarum) in first trimester were included in this study. Patients were given Chaturjatachurna (Chatutjata powder)for a peri-od of 2 weeks in dose of 3gms thrice a day after meal with Anupana (Adjuvant) as Madhu (honey) of 5ml mixed with Tandulodaka (Raw rice water) Results: This pilot study showed statistically significant changes with Chaturjatachurna in reducing the complaints of pregnant women such as nausea (p<0.001), vomiting (p<0.001) and Aruchi (Anorexia) (p<0.001) in their first trimester of pregnancy. Conclusion: Chaturjata-churna was effective in the management of Garbhini Chardi (Emesis Gravidarum) and other symptoms in the first trimester of pregnancy.

Objective: To study the prenatal developmental anatomy in first trimester of pregnancy in Khyber Pakhtun Khuwa. Materials and methods: The cross sectional study was conducted on 600 pregnant females visiting the antenatal clinic of Khyber Teaching Hospital Peshawar and Khyber clinic (Jamrud). The duration of study was 6 months. A pregnant women greater than 16 years of age, willing for ultrasound was selected, poor visualization due to technical factors like obesity, surgical scar were excluded. All the patients were enlisted under informed consent. Detailed obstetrical history was taken. The embryos were visualized with the help of abdominal ultrasound. Data were recorded followed by statistical analysis and presented as percentages. Results: In the present study, 591 cases (98.5%) were single, 8 (1.33%) cases were twin and one case is (0.16%) of triplets. The distributions of normal and abnormal cases were studied in first trimester. The shape of gestational sac was regular in 370(61.66%) and irregular in 230(38.33%) Yolk sacs were identified in 430(71.6%) cases, while in 170(28.33%) of cases yolk sac could not be identified. It could not be identified in 50 (8.33%) of cases due to early pregnancy and in 120 (20%) of cases due to abnormal pregnancy. The Fetal pole was detected in 150(25%) cases and could not be identified in 450 (75%) of cases. The relationship of gestational age, gestational sac and crown rump length in normal pregnancy was observed. Conclusions: There is linear increase in measurements of fetal growth parameters as the gestational age increases. For the assessment of gestational age in the first trimester, ultrasound is an accurate and useful modality. Key words: Trimester, Gestational sac, Yolk sac and Crown rump length.

Phagocytic Uptake

Providing adequate nutrition to the fetus is key to a successful pregnancy. The interstitial form of implantation displayed by the human blastocyst is generally associated with early onset of maternal blood flow to the developing placenta, and hence hemotrophic exchange. However, the recent finding that the maternal intraplacental circulation is not fully established until the third month of gestation suggests that human fetal nutrition may be initially histiotrophic. We therefore investigated activity of the uterine glands during early pregnancy. We demonstrate here that these glands remain active until at least wk 10 of pregnancy, and that their secretions are delivered freely into the placental intervillous space. We also demonstrate phagocytic uptake by the placental syncytiotrophoblast of two glycoproteins, the mucin MUC-1 and glycodelin A, synthesized in the maternal glands. Glycodelin was also detected within the epithelium of the secondary yolk sac lining the exocoelomic cavity, indicating that the yolk sac may play an important role in nutrient exchange before vascularisation of the chorionic villi. Our findings demonstrate that the uterine glands are an important source of nutrients during organogenesis, when metabolism is essentially anaerobic.
