In this solo episode Colette continues her series on the srotas or channels of the body and focuses on the channels for the reproductive tissue:

• Artava Vaha Srotas is the channel carrying nutrients for the female reproductive tissue, the ova or egg.
• Shukra vaha srotas is the channel carrying nutrition for the male reproductive tissue, the sperm.
• Rajah vaha srotas is the menstruation channel.
• Stanya vaha srotas are the channels for lactation.

Colette discusses the opening, passage and function of each channel along with the subdoshas governing them. She also details the possible causes of aggravation and the signs and symptoms of aggravation which can include:

• Premenstrual syndrome and menstrual cycle disorders 
• Fibrocystic changes in the breasts
• Cystic changes in the ovaries
• Cervical polyps, uterine fibroids, endometriosis
• Low libido and sexual dysfunction
• Infertility
• STD’s - sexually transmitted disease

She also shares the recommended Ayurvedic treatments for these aggravations.
