Struggling with anxiety, insomnia, or irregular cycles in early perimenopause? Vitex may help by supporting ovulation and boosting progesterone—key for balanced hormones.
In the earlier stages of perimenopause (late 30s to mid-40s), ovulation can become less frequent, leading to lower progesterone levels. This decline can trigger symptoms like mood swings, irritability, breast pain, bloating, heavy periods, and poor sleep. While progesterone naturally declines in perimenopause, that doesn’t mean there’s nothing we can do to support its production!
Vitex (Vitex agnus-castus), a powerful herbal medicine from the Mediterranean, works with the brain and ovaries to encourage ovulation—helping to maintain progesterone levels for longer and ease common symptoms.
