The active ingredients includes Dioscorea villosa (Wild Yam) and Vitex Agnus-Castus (Chaste Tree). The active compound in wild yam, diosgenin, is a potent phytoestrogen that plays a role in activating biochemical lipid pathways. Diosgenin influences these biochemical lipid pathways that play key roles in the production of steroid hormones, which are vital for hormone health and balance. This process, supported by various enzymes, results in the production of natural compounds such as ubiquinone, dolichols, squalene, and cholesterol.
Notably, cholesterol serves as the precursor for the synthesis of all adrenal hormones. Hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone play key roles in maintaining hormone balance. It is important to note that Wild Yam Cream is not a hormone replacement and the body cannot convert wild yam extract into progesterone.
Vitex agnus-castus, commonly referred to as Chaste Tree, Chasteberry, or Monkās Pepper, is an herb widely used for managing menstrual-related disorders, including symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and menopause. It is approved for use in listed medicines in Australia.
In Western herbal medicine, Vitex agnus-castus has been traditionally utilized to alleviate menstrual cramps, spasms, and pain (dysmenorrhoea) and to help reduce the frequency or severity of menopausal symptoms.
