Abstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS/PCOD) indicates a common, multifactorial endocrine condition
marked by polycystic ovaries, chronic anovulation, and hyperandrogenism, resulting in asymmetric
menstrual periods, hirsutism, acne, and infertility. Standard treatment for PCOS is often accompanied by
adverse effects, and is ineffective in certain situations, refutation-based medical guidance accented an
integrative progress. Furthermore, women suffering from PCOS may benefit from alternative treatments.
Herbal treatment includes herbs that have a phytoestrogenic and non-estrogenic nature, including Mentha
spicata, Panax ginseng, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Aloe barbadensis, Cinnamomum zeylanicum, Matricaria
chamomilla, Trigonella foenum-graecum, Linum usitatissimum, and Zingiber officinale, which are effective
and safe. This review focuses on the reproductive endocrine effects of phytomedicine as a choice
treatment so as to PCOD and accompanying oligo/amenorrhoea, acne, hirsutism, and infertility.
