रक्तपित्तकरैर्नार्या रक्तं पित्तेन दूषितम् । अतिप्रवर्तते योन्यां लब्धे गर्भेऽपि सासृजा ॥१६॥

[Asrija yonivyapat] The menstrual blood (stored in yoni) is vitiated by the pitta due to excessive intake of rakta & pitta aggravating diet and lifestyle, then even after conception, the menstrual blood flows excessively. It is known as asrija (raktaja) yoni. [16] Here, even after conception, the pregnancy does not continue because of the excessive flow of blood. So in place of Asrijasome scholars read it as "Apraja".
