Effects and Benefits
Numerous modern studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of Vitex in premenstrual syndrome (dysmenorrhoea, irregular cycle, bloating, acne), pre-menopausal symptoms, menopause, infertility problems and other conditions that can affect the female intimate health.
In a medical study, 1.93% of women given Vitex reported a decrease in the premenstrual symptoms, including: menstrual pain, depression, anxiety, food cravings.
Vitex helps to lower the levels of the hormone prolactin, which helps to rebalance other hormones, including oestrogen and progesterone – thus reducing the PMS symptoms.
The hormone balancing effects of Vitex 800 help in regulating the menstrual cycle and relieving the menopausal symptoms, easing the menstrual pain.
