Female Formula
Female System Support
The male and female reproduction systems are specialized to carry on reproduction. The systems involved in the process that produces offspring are unique. Their functions are not necessary for the survival of each individual like our other organ systems. Instead, their functions are vital to the continuation of the group to which the individuals belong (the human species), since without reproduction by at least some of its members, the species would soon become extinct.
Although the organs of the reproductive system are all concerned with the general process of reproduction, each is adapted to carry on specialized tasks. Some for example, are concerned with the production of sex cells, while others function to sustain the lives of these cells or to transport them from one location to another. Still other reproductive parts produce and secrete hormones that act to regulate the formation of sex cells, and play roles in the development and maintenance of male and female characteristics.
The following combination of herbs is designed to support and normalize female reproductive physiology and function. These herbs do not suppress monthly menstrual cycles, but they help normalize and regulate cycles, they reduce excessive bleeding, pain, cramps and discomfort. They help overcome late-onset menstruation. These herbs have also been shown to reduce many of the more subjective symptoms of PMS. They may also make pregnancy and childbirth much more enjoyable experiences and could help reduce the risk of complications.
