The mechanism of action is not fully Understood but it is Assumed that resultanting it has dopaminergic effects of prolactin secretion in Changes. At low doses, Might Have Been: such as used in previous centuries for suppression of sexual desire, it Inhibits activation of dopamine receptor by competitive binding, Causing a slight Increase in release of prolactin. In Concentrations higher, as in modern extracts, the binding activity is sufficient to reduce the release of prolactin. A study has found That treatment of 20 healthy men with higher doses of Vitex agnus-castus was Associated with a slight reduction of prolactin levels, lower doses Whereas Caused a slight Increase as Compared to placebo doses of

His immunoregulatory function is key in immune response, inflammation.Cytokines are a group of small molecular weight proteins synthesized by many cells particularly immune cells.ts function is immunoregulatory be fundamental in communication and interactions that establish the immune system cells with each other and with other cells . Cytokines direct the innate immune response and specific immune response and are involved in inflammation and hematopoiesis. activated macrophages , eosinophils , neutrophils and NK cells , induce the production of reactive oxygen species and nitrogen and macrophages involved in hematopoietic processes. Involved in such important processes as inflammation, regulation of MHC expression (Major Histocompatibility Complex) class I and class II immunosuppressive responses, regulation of isotype switching of immunoglobulins ,

Shatavari root

The powdered dried root of Asparagus racemosus ( Shatavari ) is used in Ayurveda for dyspepsia ( amlapitta or acid regurgitation ) and to increase milk secretion in a lactating woman. A mixture 'Lactare', containing Asparagus racemosus as its major component, has been reported to cause significant rise in  prolactin levels. The alcoholic extract of Asparagus racemosus has been shown to increase the prolactin levels in female rats. Metoclopramide, a dopamine receptor antagonist with a poor penetration of the blood-brain barrier , is used in radiology and in patients with dyspepsia to increase the rate of emptying of the stomach, and also causes increase in milk secretion by increasing prolactin levels. hypothesised that Shatavari may be a mild dopamine antagonist, acting in a way similar to metoclopramide . Shatavari, sometimes wild asparagus Known as, is Primarily a reproductive tonic (both male and female), a demulcent for the digestive system, and a powerful adaptoge...
