Vitex Berry
Gaia Herbs
Overview
Vitex Berry is primarily used to alleviate symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). The key ingredient, chaste tree berry extract, is believed to modulate dopamine and serotonin levels along with influencing prolactin, helping to balance hormones. While studies show potential benefits, particularly for PMS symptom relief, effectiveness is typically seen after consistent use over several menstrual cycles, and there is a need for more high-quality studies.
