Herbal treatment effective for management of PCOS
Overview
A recent study in the Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences has shown the effectiveness of herbal treatment for patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and menstrual irregularities. According to the study, the herbal medicine Femitex-SP4 can be used for PCOS treatment.
PCOS is a hormonal disorder characterized by abnormal production of androgens by ovaries and affects about fifteen percent of women of reproductive age. Despite this, there is no availability of any standard therapy. Considering this, Sumira Ishaq, Jinnah Sindh Medical University, Karachi, Pakistan, and colleagues aimed to assess herbal medicine (Femitex-SP4) for the management of PCOS. The study was carried out at Abbasi Shaheed hospital, Karachi, Pakistan during 2016-2017.
