	Ayurveda Diseases of the Urinary and Reproductive System (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Ayurveda recognises eight types of dysuria: three cause by the vitiation of the different doshas of the body; one cause by the vitiation of all the three doshas; one caused by the failure of the system in ejecting the waste matter; and the others b the presence of stones in the bladder.
		The cardinal symptoms of dysuria as described above are: scanty urine; pain during the act of urination; pain in the penis in men, and in women in the lower abdomen; urine mixed with blood; feeling of heaviness in the renal region and the scrotum; and the ever-present urge to pass urine.
		If dysuria is caused by the presence of stones in the kidney or the bladder, it is of vata origin, because the vitiation of vayu leads to the accumulation of biochemical substances around the nucleus of urinary salts, which take the shape of stones.
