Various characters of urine have been described in the Ayurvedic literatures. According to predominance of Doshas which are subjective. There is a possibility to develop the objective parameters based on the characters described in the texts by which the predominance of Doshas can be determined. The study was planned to examine the urine of cases having purely Vata, Pitta and Kapha predominant Vyadhis and compare these findings with the urine of cases having Vata, Pitta and Kapha predominant Prakriti, which serves as control. To select the diseased cases having predominantly single Dosha, Nanatmaja vyadhis as described in the texts and which are available in the hospital were selected. Hence, the patient having Pakshaghata i.e. Vataja nanatmaja vyadhi, Kamala i.e. Pittaja nanatmaja vyadhi, and Sthaulya i.e. Kaphaja nanatmaja vyadhi were selected. Optical density of urine was measured to characterize the urine according to Doshas. Temperature of urine during voiding was taken as another parameter. To observe the difference according to Doshas other parameters like surface tension, specific gravity and chemical parameters were carried out to characterize the urine according to Tridosha. Through we observe the difference in above parameters according to predominance of Doshas but statistically it was not significant but we are successful in proving the colour, appearance of urine as per the description in the text.
