Lower abdominal organs are under influence of apana. It controls all reflexes related to these organs like testes, penis, anus, and groins. It functions for menstrual flow, ejection of semen, and expulsion of baby.
This is very thoughtful of Charaka-Samhita to consider excretory functions as mechanical in mechanism. In spite of active re-absorption, formation of urine in fact as per modern physiology is mechanical in large extent. Micturition and defecation reflexes are mechanical as well. Apana is controller of all excretions through pelvic organs. It functions for expulsion of fetus from uterus, for excretion of urine and feces, also for ejection of semen and for menstrual flow.
