Chapter 96 · Stri roga: past deeds
स्त्रीरोग — कर्मविपाकः
धने सति निष्कद्वादशकं दद्यात् शक्त्यपेक्षया वा। अथ वा धान्यतिललवणानि दद्यात् । हरिद्रां च दद्यात् उमामहेश्वरप्रीतये पूजां च कुर्यात् । इति स्तनस्फोटे ।
If she has wealth, she should give twelve nishka (gold coin weight), or as much as she can. Or she should give grain, sesame and salt. She should also give turmeric, and do puja (worship) to please Uma and Maheshwara. This is for sores on the breasts.
