About Chasteberry for PCOS
Chasteberry, also called vitex, is another popular herb for relieving the symptoms of PCOS and treating infertility due to a hormonal imbalance.
Known as a "woman's herb", chasteberry has been used for centuries to treat menstrual irregularities. It can influence progesterone levels and help balance out the estrogen dominance often seen in PCOS. Incorporating a chasteberry supplement or tea may offer relief from PCOS symptoms for some individuals.
Used for thousands of years by various civilizations around the Mediterranean Sea to help alleviate female reproductive issues, it is been discovered once more as a natural way to treat symptoms caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome.
It is a great hormone-balancing herb and is also used as a remedy for menstrual problems.
Boil a cup of water and add one teaspoon of fresh or dried chasteberries. Let it steep for about 10 minutes. Strain and drink this tea daily for a few weeks or months, until you see improvement. Discontinue its use once you are satisfied with the results.
Alternatively, you can take this herb in supplement form. For proper dosage and suitability, consult your doctor.
