Yashtimadhu Ext. (Glycyrrhiza Glabra)
Powerful anti-oxidant; strengthens immunity, acts as an aphrodisiac; improve hair-growth and relieves stress.

Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) is a particularly potent natural anti-androgen.

Two recent studies examined the androgen lowering effects of Glycyrrhiza Glabra. One showed reduced testosterone in healthy women aged 22–26 years when taken through two menstrual cycles. The women in this study used 7 grams per day and their testosterone reduced from 27.8(±8.2) to 17.5 (±6.4). Another clinical trial investigated the effects of Glycyrrhiza glabra in women with PCOS. Glycyrrhiza glabra 3.5 g per day was added to the anti-androgen pharmaceutical treatment, Spironolactone 100 mg/day over two menstrual cycles. An unwanted side effect for Spironolactone is the flare of androgens during the first phase of treatment. This study demonstrated that women taking Glycyrrhiza glabra along with their Spironolactone had significantly lower concentrations of testosterone during the first four days of treatment than the group of women taking the Spironolactone alone.

Licorice root is also anti-inflammatory and we know that women with PCOS have a strong tendency to have at least slightly swollen tissues, a circumstance that contributes to fertility issues as well as cardiovascular disease risk. It inhibits tumor formation, which is soothing to any of us concerned about our very small risk of endometrial cancer. Licorice supports the adrenal hormone cortisol to last longer in our systems, a great support for those suffering adrenal-related fatigue.  One component called glycyrrhizin activates our liver to remove toxic xenobiotics, those environmental pollutants we know are contributing to our hormonal distress.

Guduchi Ext. (Tinospora Cordifolia)
Guduchi is a powerful anti- inflammatory herb. Chronic inflammation in tissues is the root cause for insulin imbalance and ovarian cysts. Guduchi helps in revitalizing all the body tissues and boosts metabolism naturally. It also helps in lowering insulin resistance.

Shatavari Ext.
(Asparagus Racemosus)
Shatavari helps in promoting normal development of ovarian follicles, regulates menstrual cycle and revitalizes the female reproductive system. Shatavari also helps in combating the hyperinsulinemia- i.e. high levels of insulin, mainly due to its phytoestrogen (natural plant based estrogen).

Shatpushpa Ext. (Foeniculum Vulgare)
Fennel seeds also known as shatapushpa in Sanskrit are a good supplement for PCOS. They are rich source of phytoestrogens. Phytoestrogens in fennel helps in reducing insulin resistance and in bringing down the inflammation in PCOS. Phytoestrogens are also believed to help reduce the cellular imbalance which leads to metabolic disturbances in PCOS.

Triphala Ext. (Emblica Officinalis, Terminalia Chebula & Terminalia Belerica)
A mixture of three fruits- Amalaki (Emblica officinalis), Haritaki (Terminalia chebula) and Bibhitaki (Terminalia bellerica) blended in it; Triphala is one of the most popular Ayurvedic classical formulations! It is a rich source of vitamin C- a powerful natural antioxidant that helps in reducing inflammation by scavenging free radicals. Triphala helps in cleansing and detoxifying your system and hence is best taken prior to taking any other Ayurvedic medicines.

Kumari Ext. (Aloe Barbadensis)
Aloe vera is yet another Ayurvedic herb that is extremely beneficial in treating PCOS. It helps in regularizing the menstrual cycles, promotes normal mestruation and normalizes ovarian hormonal imbalance.

Haridra Ext. (Curcuma Longa)

Analogues of curcumin (active ingredient of C. longa) were studied as potential drugs to treat prostate cancer. These curcumin compounds were tested for cytotoxicity against human cancer cell lines (their ability to kill cancer cells). Along with this the “anti-androgenic” (against androgen – male hormone) activity was also evaluated. Ten compounds out of forty were found to have potent cytotoxicity against prostate cancer cells and potent anti-androgenic activity.

Anti-androgenic activity is also important in females in whom androgen activity has gone higher. For example – conditions such as PCOS demonstrate high androgen levels in the female body. C. longa can certainly be useful in restoring normal levels and thus controlling PCOS.

Musta Ext. (Cyperus Rotundus)
Regulates menstrual bleeding; alleviates prementrual syndrome.

Owing to its importance in traditional medicine the plant was investigated for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antipyretic and hepatoprotective properties. Ethanolic extract of the root is reported for antinociceptive, anti inflammatory ans anti pyretic activities. Bharangi is bitter, pungent and astringent in taste.
