evidence for chasteberry (vitex agnus-castus)

Our honest take

Chasteberry (Vitex agnus-castus) in a liposomal tablet, 30 to a pack. Chasteberry has more trials than most herbs sold to women, but as a food supplement it has no authorised claims and we make no claims about PMS or any cycle-related condition. The liposomal format has no evidence of extra benefit, and at about £38 a pack it is expensive; if symptoms are affecting your life, speak to your GP.

You prefer a once-a-day tablet
You use hormonal contraception, HRT or fertility treatment (chasteberry may interfere)
You take dopamine-related medicines, or have a hormone-sensitive condition
You are pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding

The science

Chasteberry (Vitex agnus-castus)· evidence: Limited

Chasteberry is the fruit of the chaste tree. It is thought to act on the hormone prolactin, and it is one of the few herbs with several controlled trials in women, mostly looking at premenstrual symptoms. Results are positive in some trials, but many are small or of mixed quality.

In the UK some chasteberry products are registered as traditional herbal medicines, which is a different route from food supplements. As a food supplement it has no authorised health claims, so we make no claims about what it does. If cycle-related symptoms are affecting your life, speak to your GP.

Typical dose: Studies commonly used 4 to 40 mg a day of a dried fruit extract; check the extract ratio on the label.

Safety: May interact with hormonal contraception, HRT and fertility treatment, and with dopamine-related medicines (for example some Parkinson's and antipsychotic medicines). Do not use in pregnancy or breastfeeding, or if you have a hormone-sensitive condition. Speak to your GP first if you take any of these medicines. Side effects can include headache, nausea and skin rash.
