Clinical Pharmacology
Saraca indica has anti-hemorrhagic activities, which are beneficial in DUB.
Asparagus racemosus has potent estrogenic activity.
Mesua ferrea has potent broad-spectrum anti-microbial actions; and prevents secondary microbial infection.
Tinospora cordifolia has potent immunomodulatory and immunostimulatory activities, which increases levels of antibodies and activates macrophages.
Pluchea lanceolata is highly effective for backaches, muscular sprains and joint pains.
Ipomoea turpethum has anti-bacterial activity against common pathogens and also has anti-inflammatory activity.
Terminalia chebula has potent estrogenic activity, anti-bacterial activity and also anti-cancer activity. Symplocos racemosa has potent gonadotrophin activity.
Emblica officinalis has anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and immunomodulatory actions.
Nelumbium speciosum has local anti-inflammatory activity which contributes in controlling the local tissue inflammation of the female reproductive tract.
Cyperus rotundus has strong anti-inflammatory & analgesic actions, which helps in controlling PID as an etiology for dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia, and oligomenorrhea.
Sida cordifolia helps in relieving the psychological conditions involved with the usually encountered problems of the female uro-genital tract.
Piper longum has anti-spasmodic action which relieves the spasmodic pain usually associated with dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia, and oligomenorrhea.
Bombax malabaricum is traditionally used as an astringent and also in dysmenorrhea.
Putome is rich in phytoestrogens which exhibits estrogen like action and regulates the menstrual cycle. Putome regularizes the menstrual cycle by stimulating endogenous hormonal secretions. Putome stimulates the ovaries and promotes regular ovulation and increases the chances of conception.
Putome is rich in phytoestrogens and alleviates the pre and post menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, leucorrhea, and breast changes effectively. Putome repairs the endometrium and the potent haemostatic properties of Putome controls menorrhagia in the pre menopausal stage. The anxiolytic properties of Putome help in relieving the psychological symptoms.

None.
Special Precautions
None.
Dosage
1 tsp twice a day or as directed by the physician.
