The menstrual discharge in a female after puberty is a regular monthly course. Moon governs the fluid matter in a female and Mars governs the blood. Their combination causes menstruation. When Moon comes in transit in any of the houses, first, second, fourth, fifth, seventh, eighth, ninth or twelfth, the menses occur.
Sometimes it is disturbed by irregularities or by excessive flow. This occurs due to malefic influence of the planets. It is the lower abdomen where womb and ovaries are situated. Womb is ruled by the sixth house and Kanya rasi, while ovary is ruled by seventh house and Tula rasi. Therefore the disease connecting menses are to be found out from sixth, seventh and eighth houses and from Kanya, Tula and Brischika rasis. Moon and Mars are the karaka planets. for this disease. In case of excessive flow, a malignant Mars is responsible; For pain and irregularities Saturn is to be held responsible. Moon works for all chemical changes in the body and therefore Moon-Mars, Moon-Saturn, Moon-Rahu, Moon-Ketu combinations are not good in a female horoscope for regular’ and undisturbed menstrual discharge. Whenever Moon is afflicted in transit by above malefics, they will create some irregularities in menstrual discharge.
