THE standard work of natural gynecology.

The at-Verlag writes:

Herbal remedies have been increasingly gaining popularity in gynecologists' and midwives' practices in recent years. Antibiotic herbs such as bearberry, nasturtium, and garlic, as well as hormone-like plants such as lady's mantle, chasteberry, and black cohosh, have established a firm place in gynecology and obstetrics. But the plant kingdom offers countless other women's herbs whose healing powers can enrich and support a woman's entire life.

Based on her many years of research and practical experience, the author demonstrates how traditional plant knowledge can be integrated into a holistic concept of contemporary gynecology. Whether it's cystitis, endometriosis, the desire to conceive, fibroids, osteoporosis, menstrual, pregnancy, or menopausal symptoms, therapists and women of all ages will find what they're looking for here.

The encyclopedia contains 110 detailed portraits of women's herbs, with information on ingredients, effects, signatures, uses, and references to commercial products. It also includes over 180 medicinal herbal recipes and numerous valuable practical tips and treatment suggestions. It also includes a comprehensive medical glossary. An indispensable reference work for anyone interested in women's health.
