Traditional Uses: Traditionally used since ancient Greek times for gynecological conditions including menstrual irregularities, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), cyclical breast pain, and to promote chastity (hence the name).
Potential Benefits: May help reduce symptoms of PMS and cyclical breast pain, particularly breast tenderness, mood changes, and bloating, with research suggesting effects on prolactin levels.
Warnings: Avoid during pregnancy (may have uterine stimulant effects) and breastfeeding (may suppress milk production); contraindicated in hormone-sensitive conditions; use cautiously with oral contraceptives and dopamine-related medications.
