Description
Chaste Tree has the effect of stimulating and normalising pituitary gland functions, especially its progesterone function.
It may be called an amphoteric remedy, as it can produce apparently opposite effects though in truth it is simply normalising.
Chaste Tree has, for instance, a reputation as both an aphrodisiac and anaphrodisiac. It will always enable the appropriate to occur.
The greatest value of Chaste Tree lies in normalising the activity in female sex hormones. It is thus indicated for dysmenorrhoea, premenstrual stress and other disorders related to hormone function.
It is especially beneficial during menopausal changes.
In a similar way it may be used to aid the body to regain a natural balance after the use of the birth control pill.
