The classical text recommends Uttara Basti therapy for all varieties of Mutraghata. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a prevalent urological condition in aging males, often presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) such as dribbling of urine, perineal pain, and increased frequency of urination. While laser treatment provides symptomatic relief, many patients continue to experience post-surgical complications. This case report presents the Ayurvedic management of a 62- year-old male with persistent LUTS after laser therapy for BPH, treated with Varanadi Ghrita Uttara Basti for 12 days, along with Kala Basti and oral medications. The intervention resulted in notable symptomatic improvement, including reduced urinary dribbling, relief from perineal discomfort, and a significant decrease in post-void residual urine volume.
