Alive or dead foetus, after attaining development of all its body parts or after, presenting abnormally and/or in abnormal passage, associated with abnormal uterine action due to vitiation of apana
vayu, during the seventh month is termed as mudhagarbha.
Mudhagarbha refers to the condition in which the foetus loses consciousness with absence of descent.
Mudhagarbha consists of two words mudha and
garbha. Mudha is derived from dhatu while "muh" is to become stupefied, unconscious or swooned, to become bewildered or going in wrong direction or becoming lazy.

The foetus gets detached from its bonds in the same way as a fruit gets detached from its stalk due to trauma. The main causative factors of mudhagarbha are:

- riding on carriages or animals
- travelling, staggering
- falling down
- compression
- running
- trauma
- sleeping or sitting abnormally or on uneven place,
- fasting

- diarrhoea
- vomiting
- purgation
