It has also been used for its claimed activity in the reduction of libido. The German health authorities have approved the use of V. agnus-castus for menstrual cycle irregularities, premenstrual syndrome, mastalgia, and menopausal disorders. The German Commission E recommended 30–40 mg/day of extract of dried fruit which is standardized based on 0.6% casticin. Scientific studies confirmed several pharmaceutical effects of this medicinal plant including antioxidant, chemopreventive, immunomodulatory and cytotoxicity, tumoricidal, antimutagenic, antimicrobial, antifungal, insect repellant, larvicidal, fracture healing, osteopenic, antinociceptive, opioidergic, antiepileptic, preventing nonalcoholic fat liver disease and oxidative stress, and anti‑inflammatory activities. Adverse effects following by application of this plant are mild and reversible. There are no drug interactions recognized by systematic reviews. Theoretically, chaste tree could interfere with dopaminergic antagonists. In addition, the application of V.

  • Vitex ​Agnus-Castus
    REFERENCE SHEET: Vitex ​agnus-castus Pronunciation Vitex agnus-castus​​ (vy-teks ag-nus​ kast-us​) Summary Vitex agnus-castus​​ (VAC) is also commonly known as chaste tree or chasteberry. The plant’s main constituents include vitexin, casticin, agnuside, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, alkaloids, and diterpenoids. The fruit consists of flavonoids, terpenoids, neolignans, phenolic compounds, and glycerides. The extracts of the dried ripe fruits themselves demonstrate antioxidant activity and have been used in treating symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Essential oils from the fruit contain 20.73–23.36% 1,8-cineole + 16.09–22.28% sabinene, and 6.60–19.73% α-pinene. Its main flavonoids include casticin, vitexin, and orientin. Standardized extracts typically measure the iridoid or flavonoid content where aucubin (iridoid glycoside) or agnuside is used as the reference material. Vitex agnus-castus​​ ​Reference Sheet Main Medical Uses Research supports the use of VAC in treating the symptoms of PMS, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, premenstrual migraines, premenstrual tension syndrome, postmenopausal hot flushes, cyclical mastalgia and hyperprolactinemia. Evidence also demonstrates similar effectiveness of VAC to low dose oral contraceptives and metformin in polycystic ovarian syndrome, and to ethinyl estradiol/drospirenone in dysmenorrhea.

The clinical presentation can involve a series of disorders, including hot flushes with episodes of sweating, particularly at night, palpitations, changes in sleep-wake rhythm, irritability, anxiety and mood changes, vaginal dryness due to a process of progressive atrophy with thinning of the outer and inner labia, reduction of vascularisation and elastic fibres, and decreased sexual desire; subsequently, Many women use alternative therapies to treat hot flushes and other menopausal symptoms. The purpose of this review is to summarize current information on the efficacy and safety of phytoestrogens and the herbal medicine. Given the importance that these symptoms assume for the woman, not only for the perceived quality of life, but also for the increased risk of developing all the diseases, all the treatments adopted for menopausal women are directed primarily to resolving vasomotor disorder Keywords: Menopause; Vasomotor symptoms; Hot flushes; Phyto- fibres, and decreased sexual desire; subsequently, the process of atrophy oestrogens; Magnolia; Chaste tree berry also affects the epidermis with thin, pale skin that is easily susceptible to bacterial and viral infections.

    Volume 4, No.2 2001 A CONCISE UPDATE OF IMPORTANT ISSUES CONCERNING NATURAL HEALTH INGREDIENTS Thomas G. Guilliams Ph.D. FEMALE CYCLE DIFFICULTIES Non-invasive Diagnosis and Natural Treatment Options The menstrual cycle is one of the most exquisite displays of biological rhythm. It is a fascinating combination of positive and negative feedback controls involving the hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, adrenals, ovaries and uterus. Unfortunately, for various reasons, the rhythm is often disrupted and difficulties arise. This review will look at some of the more common disruptions and difficulties with the menstrual cycle such as amenorrhea, anovulation, luteal phase deficiencies, abnormal uterine bleeding and PMS. This review focuses on several trends and diagnostic techniques used to distinguish if the patient can be treated with natural remedies, what those remedies are, and the research supporting those remedies. It will be clear that with the proper diagnosis and treatment, natural medicine is well suited to set the rhythm back in motion. The normal menstrual cycle is a cascade of hormonal events. Signals received and sent by both the brain and the uterus orchestrate the presentation of a fully functional egg and the preparation of the Table of Contents endometrial lining of the uterus to implant the egg, if and when it is fertilized. The cycle is typically broken into three phases: the follicular, the Menstrual Cycle Overview . .1 ovulatory, and the luteal phase. Let us briefly look at what occurs at each of these phases (Fig 1).
