Discover All Of The Benefits of Wildcrafted Vitex Essential Oil (Chasteberry)


Vitex essential oil, also known as Agnus Castus and Chasteberry, has been used for thousands of years to aid the female reproductive system in a variety of ways. 

Broadly used in Europe, vitex remains an important remedy for helping regulate and stabilize female hormones, thus aiding in reproduction, reducing menstruation difficulties, easing menopause symptoms and is reported to help with symptoms of mild endometriosis. Also, a benefit of regulating female hormones, vitex can also improve acne.


 
What it does

Vitex essential oil is interesting because, although it has a noticeable effect on female hormone levels, it actually contains no hormones itself. This makes it a natural, gentle option for those wishing to aid in the regulation of their hormone levels. There are not any know adverse side effects of vitex when taken in moderation.

Natural Fertility Info explains that vitex has been proven to effectively balance female fertility hormones. Using vitex essential oil has a regulating effect upon the pituitary gland, the same gland that influences the amount of hormones produced by the ovaries.

According to Natural Fertility Info, studies have demonstrated that vitex:



  • Increases luteinizing hormone levels – luteinizing hormones encourage ovulation. 
  • Raise progesterone levels – the corpeus luteum is responsible for releasing progesterone, and vitex aids in corpeus luteum formation.
  • Ease symptoms of menstrual cramps, menopause and PMS
  • Helps with mild endometriosis – German gynecologists regularly use vitex on patients with mild endometriosis.
  • Can help discourage miscarriage – miscarriages caused by low progesterone levels can sometimes be avoided through the progesterone-producing effects of vitex. Pregnant women, however, should always consult a medical practitioner before using any herb during pregnancy.
  • Reduces menstruation difficulties – because of its regulating effects, vitex has been shown to both bring about menstruation when it is absent, and regulate it when it is erratic.
  • Improves acne – combined with an improved diet, vitex can reduce acne.
  • Help with milk production – when used right after having a child, vitex can assist in milk production.
