Vitex, also known as the Abraham tree, is an herb best known for its positive effects on a woman's reproductive system. Restores hormonal balance.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
1. Restores hormonal balance
The Abraham tree affects the receptors of the hypothalamus, reduces the secretion of prolactin and increases the production of luteinizing hormone by the pituitary gland, strengthening the progesterone phase of the cycle. The pituitary gland also affects the ovaries, stimulating progesterone production.
2. Restores the natural hormonal balance after long-term use of birth control pills
Taking Vitex for several months after removing estrogen-containing oral contraceptives helps to correct the menstrual cycle and restore ovulation.
3. Relieves the symptoms of PMS
Clinical studies show that Vitex can be extremely useful in relieving premenstrual syndrome. Fruit extract, which has a good positive result in 70-90% of cases of PMS, is often used.
Decreased estrogen levels lead to a decrease in the level of the neurotransmitter serotonin, which reduces the level of irritability, nervousness, swelling of the mammary glands, bloating and headache.
4. Prevents miscarriage
Vitex, as mentioned above, increases progesterone levels and thus reduces the risk of miscarriage in the first trimester of pregnancy.
5. Stimulates lactation
For more than 2,000 years, the Abraham tree has been used to stimulate milk production in lactating women. Start taking it usually from the date of birth of the child and continue, if necessary, up to 10 days.
6. Menopause
The hormone-modulating effect of Vitex agnus castus can also help relieve menopausal symptoms.
Women have documented an improvement in menopausal symptoms associated with improved mood and sleep. Some have even regained their menstrual cycle.
