This constant dance of hormones orchestrates our fertility, a dance that changes throughout the month and throughout our lives. Of the millions of follicles (eggs) in the ovaries, eight to ten mature each month. But, in most cases, only one reaches the point that it ruptures and releases an egg (ovulation). The unused follicles die. After ovulation, the ruptured follicle reconnects and continues to grow, becoming the corpus luteum. In preparation for fertilization, it produces estrogen and progesterone to create an extra lining in the uterus. But after about 12 days, if no fertilization occurs, the corpus luteum dies, and estrogen and progesterone levels plunge. This causes the lining to be expelled. Menstruation begins. Hormonally, a woman''s period marks the end of the cimicifuga menstrual cycle. A new cycle begins when the hypothalamus, racemosa in response to the dramatic drop in estrogen and progesterone levels at the cimicifuga end of the last cycle, sends GnRh (another hormone) to the pituitary, which then releases a new batch of follicle stimulating hormones (FSH) to the ovaries. This stimulates the maturation of a small group of follicles. is a carefully standardized, all natural approach to menopause that helps the body adjust to the hormonal changes that take place during this time in a woman''s life.* Made from black cohosh and chaste tree berry, is effective in the time preceding racemosa and cimicifuga (perimenopause) and following (postmenopause) menopause and has been shown to relieve symptoms of PMS. is an herbal supplement that naturally promotes a woman''s hormone balance* without the use of artificial hormones. šs main ingredient, a fine black cohosh extract, is standardized to its key active compounds.

Looks at their studies of prolactin inhibition by plant extracts and focused on the effects of extract of Vitex agnus-castus and its preparations on rat pituitary cells under basal and stimulated conditions in primary cell cultures. Summarizes that Agnus castus has dopaminergic effects and inhibits prolactin secretion significantly. Concludes that agnus castus could be used as an efficient component in the treatment of slight hyperprolactinaemia and its symptoms The medicinal use of racemosa extracts from Vitex agnus-castus has a long tradition.
