Classical view, not medical advice.
यमाज्ञया महादेवि षष्टिवर्षसहस्रकम् ॥
By the order of Yama (the god of death), O Goddess, he stayed sixty thousand years. Coming out of hell, he became a jackal in a deep forest.
पुनः काको वरारोहे ततो भवति मानुषः ॥
Then a crow, O fair one. Then he becomes human. He knows good qualities, is devoted to the gods, and is keen on the pleasures of prostitutes.
रागी सूक्ष्मतनुर्वक्ता ज्ञानवान् सुतवर्जितः ॥
He is passionate, thin, a good speaker, learned, and without a son. His wife is fat, ugly and harsh.
