A Hormonal Balancing Herb for Women’s Health & Cycle Regulation
Chaste tree berry, commonly known as Vitex, is a deeply supportive hormone-regulating herb traditionally used in Western herbalism, Ayurveda, and Traditional European medicine for balancing the menstrual cycle, supporting fertility, and easing PMS symptoms. Rich in dopaminergic compounds, Vitex helps modulate hormone production, particularly by influencing the pituitary gland.

✔️ Menstrual cycle regulation: Helps balance irregular cycles and ease PMS symptoms
✔️ Hormonal acne support: Traditionally used to clear skin imbalances related to hormonal fluctuations
✔️ Fertility & reproductive health: Supports healthy ovulation and progesterone balance
✔️ Menopausal & perimenopausal relief: Helps ease hot flashes, mood swings, and hormonal shifts
✔️ Mood & emotional well-being: May help with mild anxiety, irritability, and low mood related to hormonal imbalances
✔️ Lactation support: Traditionally used to promote breast milk production
How to Use
🌿 Tea/Infusion: Steep dried chaste berries for a hormone-balancing tea
🌿 Tincture: A concentrated extract for cycle regulation and mood support
🌿 Capsules: A convenient option for long-term hormonal balance
🌿 Powdered & Culinary Use: Can be ground and added to herbal formulations
