How does Femisan A work in case of endometriosis?
When it comes to endometriosis, Femisan A has an anti-inflammatory effect, and it also soothes the sharp pain caused by this complicated disorder. There is also evidence that the flavones can reduce the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of androgens to estrogens, which reduces complications of endometriosis. One of the herbs in the Femisan A formula is lady’s mantle which has an adstringent effect, and is recommended in case of heavy flow. Lady’s mantle inhibits angiogenesis – the growth of new blood vessels.
What effect does Femisan A have on uterine fibroids?
The afore mentioned angiogenesis is a process that enhances development of certain diseases, like fibroids and endometriosis. As in endometriosis, the lady’s mantle extract has the power to inhibit growth of new blood vessels, thus preventing the development of new fibroids, stopping the growth of the existing ones and causing them to shrink over time. Furthermore, the ahileins from yarrow and tanins from lady’s mantle and marigold subdue extended and abundant menstrual bleeding that is often caused by the fibroids.


How does Femisan A affect cysts and the PCOS?
Femisan A is very efficient in cysts, first of all by establishing a normal hormonal balance, and will relatively quickly cause the cysts to rupture or be reabsorbed. When it comes to the polycystic ovaries syndrome, therapy persistence very important. PCOS  is a disorder with a tendency to keep coming back, which makes prolongued therapy followed by occasional prevention essential.
Can Femisan A help in blocked fallopian tubes?
With its anti-inflammatory effect, as well as the effect of the lady’s mantle on strenghtening the reproductive organs, Femisan A can contribute to resolving the ovary blockage, but only as adjuvant therapy. A hysterosalpingogram (HSG) examination is advised which, by itself, can help unblock the tubes.

The plants contained in Femisan A are not dominant phytoestogens. Their main active principles – pharmacological active substances are not plant steroles but flavonoids, tannins, etc. Medicinal plants contain numerous phytochemicals. The substance that is dominant will classify a plant into a certan pharmacological group, which does not mean that the plaint does not contain other chemical compounds. It is exactly the synergistic variation of chemical compounds in plants that make their valuable healing properties.

Our Monthly Companion




Menstruation is an ever present phenomenon in every woman’s life, and a foundation of her functioning reproductive system. With small variations from month to month, menstrual bleeding is rather consistent. Thus, it is not difficult to detect sudden abnormalities. First of all, we need to know what ‘normal’ is. Periods should occur 21-35 days apart, and should not last for longer than 7 days. They should occur regularly on a monthly basis. Although a certain level of discomfort and pain is usually present, it shouldn’t get in the way of our usual everyday activities. The bleeding should occur during the period, and not in between.  

Teenage girls usually find their periods rather frenzied and unpredictable, however as the ovaries age, ovulation and menstruation become more and more regular. Once it becomes stable, even the slightest changes will sound an alarm.



What are the changes in our cycle trying to tell us?

  • ·         If periods suddenly start lasting longer than usual, it can be a sign of polyps or uterine fibroids, benign changes on the uterine wall. A detailed pelvic checkup and transvaginal ultrasound is advised.
  • ·         Large blood clots, size of a coin, usually accompanied by heavy bleeding during periods, point at endometriosis, the disorder where the endometrium - lining of the uterus, grows outside of it and reacts to the secreted hormones the same way as normal endometrium, shedding its lining during a period. Since endometriosis can cause numerous complications, urgent help from a professional is a must.
  • ·         Extremely painful periods can be another sign of endometriosis. Certain level of menstrual pain and discomfort is normal, however if it is so severe that it impedes everyday activities, month after month, professional help is needed.
  • ·         Spotting between periods or inter-menstrual bleeding that lasts longer than two months can indicate a hormone imbalance or an STD. However, sometimes spotting can simply be caused by stress or sudden weight loss. Anyway, it’s always wiser to get a checkup on time.
  • ·         If menstrual blood is too light, our estrogen levels could be too low, preventing the uterine lining to form properly. It is usually accompanied with hair loss, irregular periods and vaginal dryness.
  • ·         Absence of menstruation, amenorrhea, unless caused by pregnancy, can occur at times of extreme stress, malnutrition and low fat diet, too much exercise, thyroid disorder or onset of menopause.
  • ·         Irregular periods or missed periods could indicate a hormone imbalance caused by polycystic ovaries, particularly if they are accompanied with weight gain, fatigue, increased facial hair, acne, mood swings and abdominal pain. Any absence of menstruation longer than 3 months requires a medical checkup.
  • ·         Heavy periods that last longer than 7 days could be a sign of uterine fibroids. Fibroids are caused by hormone imbalance, and although they are benign, they could cause discomfort by, for example, putting too much pressure on the bladder, or triggering extremely heavy bleeding which could lead to anemia.

We live in a world where menstrual disorders are becoming much more common than normal periods. Sadly, our environment is swamped with hormone disruptors which are impossible to avoid. However, there are certain aspects of our lives that we can control: getting enough sleep, exercising regularly and moderately, cutting out alcohol, caffeine, fast food and sugar, maintaining normal weight and having regular medical checkups.



For centuries, women have been seeking relief in nature. Today, old experience is united with modern, scientific knowledge in Femisan A, an entirely natural, herbal preparation. Femisan A can help regulate the menstrual cycle, balance hormones, strengthen the lining of the uterus, eliminate cysts, protect the ovaries and reduce menstrual pain.

PCOS, Enemy of Body and Mind


If you feel tired, grumpy, you can’t explain the sudden weight gain and facial hair, nevertheless your scalp gets thinner while your periods become irregular… it’s not you, it’s your hormones.

PCOS, the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome affects approximately 18% of women worldwide. It is manifested with ovarian cysts which are benign; nevertheless they can seriously interfere with reproductive hormonal balance, by producing excessive male hormones, thus disrupting the normal menstrual cycle. Apart from creating series of unpleasant physical symptoms like irregular, abundant and painful periods, inability to conceive, greasy and acne-prone skin, facial and body hair, weight gain and constant lack of energy, the PCOS can seriously crush a woman’s self-esteem, lead to depression and poor social life.


PCOS also has an underlying physical aspect: it prevents the body from using the insulin properly, leading to insulin resistance and potentially diabetes. It also affects blood vessels and pressure, and if left untreated, can cause heart attack or stroke. The fact that the PCOS and insulin resistance are so closely linked clearly implies that it can significantly be influenced by proper diet.  

The three essential nutritional  must-dos when diagnosed with PCOS are:
  1. Forget about simple carbs like white flour, sugar and processed food, and opt for complex carbs: brown rice, oats, legumes, vegetables and fruit.
  2. Eat healthy protein and fats: chicken, eggs, oily fish, avocado, and nuts, use unrefined, good quality cooking oils.
  3. Eat small portions more regularly in order to maintain proper insulin levels and avoid episodes of extreme hunger and overeating. 


The following lifestyle changes, apart from proper diet, should be embraced:
  • Exercise regularly and spend more time outdoors.
  • Maintain a healthy body weight.
  • Ditch alcohol and cigarettes.
  • Use relaxation techniques to reduce stress: meditation, prayer, whatever works for you.
  • Use natural remedies and medicinal herbs to regain hormonal balance.


Femisan A plus Maca capsules is a natural formula designed for women that contributes to normal physiological functions of the female reproductive system. It does not contain any artificial ingredients or hormones. The formula consists of dry extracts of 6 medicinal herbs and zinc. Femisan A plus Maca capsules is efficient in the treatment of PCOS.
