    Agnus Castus

    Hippocrates, recommended Agnus Castus (Vitex) for female complaints, over 2000 years ago. Though the herb does not contain hormones, it may aid female hormone levels.



    It has been suggested that women who suffer from PMS produce two little progesterone in the last weeks of their menstrual cycle. Studies have shown that Agnus Castus can help to maintain a healthy balance of the female sex hormones and relieve symptoms such as irritability and ease water from the system. It is also commonly taken by women who are going through the change. Take between 250mg and 500mg daily.
