Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a neuroendocrine metabolic disorder characterized by an irregular menstrual cycle. Treatment for PCOS using synthetic drugs is effective. However, PCOS patients are attracted towards natural remedies due to the effective therapeutic outcomes with natural drugs and the limitations of allopathic medicines. In view of the significance of herbal remedies, herein, we discuss the role of different herbs in PCOS.
By referring to the Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar, Crossref and Hinari databases, a thorough literature search was conducted and data mining was performed pertaining to the effectiveness of herbal remedies against PCOS.
In this review, we discuss the significance of herbal remedies in the treatment of PCOS, and the chemical composition, mechanism of action and therapeutic application of selected herbal drugs against PCOS.
The present review will be an excellent resource for researchers working on understanding the role of herbal medicine in PCOS.
多囊卵巢综合征(PCOS)是一种以月经周期不规律为特征的神经内分泌代谢紊乱疾病。使用合成药物治疗PCOS是有效的。然而,由于天然药物的有效治疗效果以及对抗疗法药物的局限性,PCOS患者倾向于天然疗法。鉴于草药疗法的重要性,在此我们讨论不同草药在PCOS中的作用。
通过查阅Scopus、PubMed、谷歌学术、Crossref和Hinari数据库,进行了全面的文献检索,并对草药疗法治疗PCOS的有效性进行了数据挖掘。
在本综述中,我们讨论了草药疗法在治疗PCOS中的重要性,以及所选草药药物治疗PCOS的化学成分、作用机制和治疗应用。
本综述将为致力于理解草药在PCOS中作用的研究人员提供极好的资源。
