Ingredients explained
Chasteberry extract (Vitex agnus-castus) (fruit) (10:1)
Compounds in vitex interact with the pituitary to influence prolactin and other hormone signals, which may help normalise cyclical hormone patterns.
Caution: May interact with hormone-related medicines; discontinue and speak with a professional if unexpected changes in cycle or discomfort occur.
Biotin
Biotin acts as a coenzyme for carboxylase enzymes that support energy metabolism and the synthesis of keratin in hair and nails.
Caution: High-dose biotin can interfere with certain laboratory tests; stop use a few days before blood work if advised by a professional.
Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine HCl)
Vitamin B6 supports enzymatic reactions involved in neurotransmitter synthesis and amino acid metabolism, which may influence mood and cycle comfort.
Caution: Excessive long-term intakes of vitamin B6 may cause nerve tingling; do not exceed suggested use unless guided.
Dong quai (Angelica sinensis) (root)
Dong quai provides ferulic acid and aromatic compounds that may relax smooth muscle and support circulatory tone.
Caution: May increase sensitivity to sunlight and has mild blood-thinning potential; use caution with anticoagulant or antiplatelet medicines.
Ginger root extract (4:1)
Gingerols and shogaols influence serotonin receptors in the gut and modulate eicosanoid formation, which may aid digestive comfort.
Caution: May mildly thin blood and can cause stomach upset in some people; take with food if sensitive.
How they work together
Vitex influences pituitary signalling related to reproductive hormones, while vitamin B6 supports neurotransmitter pathways that can affect cycle comfort. Dong quai contributes smooth muscle and circulation support, and ginger adds digestive and calming benefits. Biotin complements the formula with metabolic and keratin coenzyme roles for daily wellness.
