Chaste Tree Berry Whole (Vitex angus castus)

Agnus Tree Berries, also known as Chase Tree: has a long extensive history of use for hormone regulation. It is often used for treating endometriosis, infertility, PMS, preventing miscarriage in first trimester, and menopausal symptoms particularly hot flashes. Herbalist have had success using this herb to help regulate menstrual cycle and even help initiate a period in women who have had absent periods for some time. Chase Tree does not contain actual hormones but rather works to help naturally balance the body's hormones by way of regulating the pituitary. By regulating the pituitary it has an effect on the function of the other glands involved in the endocrine system. The pituitary sends out the signal to the other glands to tell them when and how much hormone to produce. This communication system is called a hormonal feedback loop. If the pituitary is not balanced properly this will effectively throw off the balance of the other glands.
