Chaste tree berry, or Vitex, comes from a small tree native to the Mediterranean and Central Asia. The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine explains that women have used chaste tree berry for thousands of years to treat menstrual problems, infertility and other gynecological issues. Chaste tree berry is available in capsule, liquid tincture, or can be brewed into a tea. As with all herbal remedies, speak to a medical professional before taking them.
Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a painful condition that occurs when the cells that make up the lining of the uterus travel outside the uterus to other parts of the body, causing deposits to form scar tissue, explains the University of Maryland Medical Center, or UMMC. Reproductive hormones like estrogen and progesterone stimulate the cells both inside and outside the uterus. Chaste tree berry’,s hormonal activity may help alleviate the painful symptoms. UMMC recommends taking 400 milligrams once a day in the morning. Talk to your doctor before taking it if you are using other types of hormone therapy.
