== वेगधारण परिणाम Effects of suppressing the natural urges ==
Since the vegas as the name suggests inherently carry the velocity, speed or rapid movement inside the body, those show obvious association with Vata dosha as per Ayurveda. Vata dosha is responsible for all types of movements happening inside the body. Therefore, forcible suppression of these urges is believed to cause obstruction to the flow of vata and lead to its movement in reverse direction along with its aggravation in the body parts in related body parts. Since all the vegas are associated with various systems of body which are also connected with few others, the effects of Vegadharana are visible in all these connected systems. Varied effects of vegadharana have been described by Acharya Charaka,<ref>Charaka Samhita ([https://niimh.nic.in/ebooks/ecaraka/?mod=read&h=vegA Sutrasthanam Adhyayam 7])</ref> Acharya Vagbhata,<ref>Ashtanga Hrudayam ([http://vedotpatti.in/samhita/Vag/ehrudayam/?mod=read&h=vegA Sutrasthanam Adhyayam 4])</ref> and Acharya Sushruta.<ref>Sushruta Samhita (Uttartantra Adhyayam 55)</ref>

=== Effects of suppression of various non-suppressible urges ===
Suppression of urine: leads to (i) difficulty in passing urine, (ii) urinary stone, (iii) atony of bladder and (iv) inflammation of urinary tract.
Suppression of stool: leads to (i) pain in abdomen, (ii) tympanites, (iii) indigestion (iv) gas in abdomen, (v) headache and (vi) ulcers.
Suppression of flatus: leads to (i) pain in the abdomen, (ii) tympanites, (iii) indigestion, (iv) heart diseases, (v) constipation or diarrhea and (vi) gas.
Suppression of semen: When semen in about to be ejaculated if it is suppressed then it may produce (i) a stone (spermolith), (ii) pain in testis and (iii) difficulty in intercourse.
Suppression of vomiting: When food is not digested, the body tries to expel it out. If it is suppressed, the undigested matter is circulated in the body, thereby producing different types of diseases like urticaria, giddiness, anaemia, hyperacidity, skin diseases and fever.
Supperssion of sneezing: This phenomenon is meant for getting rid of foreign matter from the nose thereby clearing the nasal passage. If this is suppressed, the foreign matter in the nose may produce rhinitis and chronic cold, headache, sinusitis and diseases of respiratory system.
Suppression of eructation: Suppression of eructation leads to hiccough, pain in chest, cough, anorexia and loss of appetite.
Suppression of yawning: Suppression of yawning leads to diseases of the eyes, throat, ear and nose.
Suppression of hunger and thirst: Desire to take food and drink water are suggestive of requirements of nutrition and replenishment of the loss. By suppression i.e. by keeping hungry and thirsty, nutritional dosorders and debility are produced. The body resistance and immunity against infections are lowered, thereby susceptibility to diseases increased. In the same way hunger, pain, dehydration etc. are produced.
Suppression of tears: In emotional conditions like pleasure and grief, the tears come down from the eyes and if suppressed, mental disorders, pain in chest, giddiness and digestive disorders are produced.
Suppression of respiration: Prāṇayāma is an important Yogic exercise and one should gradually practice this breathing exercise. Sudden holding of breath may cause suffocation, respiratory disorders, heart diseases and even death.
Suppression of sleep: This is also a natural urge. When the brain gets tired, the sense and motor organs get tired, rest is required. The rest is in the form of sleep. By keeping forcefully awaking, the diseases like insomnia, mental disorders, digestive disorders and diseases of sense organs are caused.
