Shatavari - Asparagus racemosus: adaptogen, Women well-being, fertility

Shatavari is reported for several effects:
  • Reduces premenstrual syndrome and allows it to support difficult periods.
  • By increasing fertility, shatavari is useful for a woman wishing to conceive, as it acts as a uterine tonic and helps prevent miscarriages.
  • Aphrodisiac effect, it stimulates the libido.
  • For inhibiting the formation of urinary calculi and facilitating their dissolution (historical use by Sushruta)
  • When used during menopause, it soothes hot flashes (cooling effect).
  • Promotes lactation in women who have just given birth through its galactagogue effect (by increasing the amount of prolactin).
Shatavari also contains phytoestrogens, which have a protective role at the hormonal level in preventing hormone-dependent cancers such as breast cancer. Indeed, phytoestrogens, by binding to estrogen receptors in our cells, prevent these receptors from binding to xenoestrogens, harmful endocrine disruptors present in our environment (bisphenol A in plastic, phthalates, formaldehyde, etc.) that destabilize the hormonal messages of the body..Shatavari is also beneficial for men because it increases their fertility: in fact, it promotes the production of sperm.
