Dong Quai comes from the Chinese herb called Angelica chinensis. Traditional herbalists use the dried roots to prepare the herbal medicine. In earlier times, it was more popular in treating women’s infertility, thus, it got its name “women’s ginseng”. Today, more men are claiming on its fertility benefit. There are reports that men enjoy the same boost in their sexual functions.
Male Infertility
When you talk about the male fertility, everything boils down to the quality and quantity of sperm cells. But in order to produce high quality cells, there should be balanced male hormones in the body. They include the luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone and the testosterone. If the three hormones are in balanced state, you can ensure excellent fertility status.
For men who encounter problem in the quality of their sperm, taking the Dong Quai is the first step to correct this. The herb normalizes the blood circulation and nourishes the sperm cells. The ferulic acid, a potent antioxidant, is present in the fertility herb. It helps the cells survive their travel in the cervix by absorbing free radicals released during the cellular metabolism.
Female Fertility
Dong Quai is a popular fertility herb for women who are having difficulty getting pregnant. The boiled roots made into tea create a balancing effect inside the body. Because it regularizes the level of hormone, women taking the herb can expect a normal menstrual cycle and ovulation. However, the results may take some time. It does not mean that once you take the Dong Quai, you will get pregnant immediately. If you want to increase your chances better, you should work with a fertility expert.
Dong Quai promotes both the male and female fertility. As a summary, here are the known benefits of the fertility herb:
