Vitex modifies the effect of the hypothalamus and pituitary glands. This helps regulate and balance female hormone production.  An extract of vitex is approved in Germany for menstrual disorders, PMS and painful breasts  It is the single best herb for treating the many possible symptoms of PMS: cramps, flooding, headaches, depression, water retention, constipation, acne, breast tenderness, and irritability. It can help normalize irregular or scanty periods. It is especially helpful for women who are coming off the birth control pill. (For many women, cycles remain irregular for up to two years after stopping the pill. Vitex can greatly shorten that time and helps ease the body into regaining its own natural rhythm.) It is a wonderful tonic to enhance the chances of conception (through its ability to regulate ovulation), and if taken through the first trimester will reduce the chances of miscarriage. After the birth, it helps a new mother to produce plenty of milk.
