In Ayurveda, the human body is made up of seven vital tissues (Sapta Dhatu) – Rasa, Rakta, Mamsa, Meda, Asthi, Majja, and Shukra.
Shukra Dhatu is the final and most refined tissue formed after all other Dhatus are nourished. It represents reproductive strength, vitality, immunity, creativity, and fertility in both men and women. It is not just about semen or sperm — Shukra Dhatu also includes female ovum (egg) and the entire reproductive energy.
How is Shukra Dhatu Formed?
Rasa → Rakta → Mamsa → Meda → Asthi → Majja → Shukra
This transformation takes time, and any disturbance in Agni (digestive fire) or presence of Ama (toxins) affects this chain and leads to weak or depleted Shukra Dhatu.
Signs of Weak or Disturbed Shukra Dhatu
Men:
- Low sperm count
- Erectile dysfunction
- Premature ejaculation
- Lack of libido
- Physical fatigue and low stamina
Women:
- Irregular or painful periods
- Anovulation
- Hormonal imbalance
- Infertility
- Loss of glow or vitality
Also, weak Shukra affects Rasayana effect — immunity, longevity, and skin-glow get reduced.
Causes of Shukra Dhatu Dushti (Damage)
- Poor digestion and chronic constipation
- Excessive sexual activity or suppression of urges
- Stress, anger, overthinking
- Use of alcohol, smoking, gutkha
- Improper diet (junk food, viruddha ahar, late meals)
