What is the therapeutic dose of Femisan A?
The therapeutic dose of Femisan A is two capsules twice daily, and preventative dose is one capsule twice daily.
Will I feel any changes in my body when I begin using Femisan A?
Since Femisan A enhances circulation, it can be felt at the beginning of use as mild pain in lower abdomen. That is a good sign that it is working. Furthermore, brown discharge or spotting can be a sign of a ruptured cyst. It is important to continue using the capsules regularly.
Does it contain alcohol?
No, the capsules are alcohol free. Femisan A does not contain preservatives, artificial colours or gluten. It is HALAL certified.
How long does one pack of Femisan A last?

How does Femisan A affect fertility?
Femisan A stimulates ovarian functions, hormonal balance, it intensifies ovulation and fortifies the uterine lining – endometrium. It is recommended by doctors as an excellent preparation for the IVF process.
How fast can I get pregnant?
The results vary and mostly depend on the severity of the disorder that prevented fertility. Regular use over a longer period of time is essential, as it takes time for the medicinal herbs to demonstrate the full effect. Simultaneously with Femisan A for women, couples attempting pregnancy are also advised to use Alfa Aktiv for men, which balances levels of testosterone and increases sperm number and motility.
Is Femisan A used during menstruation? When it shouldn’t be used?
Yes, the capsules are used throughout the cycle, even during menstruation, and should not be used in pregnancy. Femisan A will not harm the embryo, it is not used during pregnancy for a simple reason that there is no need for it. In pregnancy the body uses different mechanisms, and nothing should be used apart from that advised by the obstetrician.
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.
Does Femisan A contain hormones?
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.


Can Femisan A be used during and after menopause?
The oldest patient that used Femisan A was over 90 years old. The capsules can be used to treat disorders which may occur, although more rarely, following the menopause.
Can Femisan A be used simultaneously with the Pill?
Yes, Femisan A can be combined with contraception, however in a reduced dose, 2x1 capsules.
Can Femisan A be used by young girls?
Yes, the formula can be used from the first period. Femisan A helps establish a normal hormonal balance more quickly. It is also an excellent prevention from PCOS and endometriosis which keep occuring at younger age today.

Period pain



We, women are all familiar with the moment when all we want is to curl up, press a cushion or a hot water bottle on our tummy and find occasional comfort in a piece of chocolate. Period pain is normal, and probably most women got more or less accustomed to it. The pain is usually accompanied with cramps, bloating, dizziness, headache, digestion problems, nausea, and mood changes. But why is it so?


Several days before the onset of menstruation we begin to experience mild cramps, which increase on the day of menstruation and continue for the following couple of days. The pain can radiate to the thighs and lower back, while the cramps are the strongest in the lower abdomen. The cramps are caused by prostaglandins, hormones secreted by the endometrium - the uterus lining, with the intention to cause contractions, its shedding and regeneration, which is exactly the purpose of menstruation. The prostaglandins are also the ones to cause birth contractions and help the birth by pushing the baby out of the uterus. During the contractions, the uterine blood supply is cut off, leaving the organ without oxygen. The uterus is a muscle with the ability to contract and relax, and the contraction is experienced as pain.

Unusually strong menstrual cramps and pain can occur in young girls at the beginning of puberty, and when they are not due to other disorder, they are called primary dysmenorrhea. At later age, in mid-thirties, women can experience secondary dysmenorrhea – pain caused by a disorder, such as endometriosis, fibroids or an infection. Endometriosis is a condition that usually affects women in their thirties and forties, and occurs when the endometrial tissue travels into the pelvic area and begins growing on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, bowel and the tissues lining the pelvis. Unfortunately, this tissue ’remembers’ that it is supposed to peel off once the menstruation begins, causing unbearable pain.

Uterine fibroids can also cause severe period pain, but also excessive bleeding. They are benign tumors which can inhabit and grow inside or on the outside of the uterine wall. Similarly, various infections can intensify period pain, as bacteria can lead to severe inflammation of the ovaries and fallopian tubes.



How can we relieve period pain?
  •         There are indications that women who often drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes suffer from incrased period pain. Alcohol reduces the liver’s capacity to detoxify estrogen and toxins. Therefore, it should be cut down, or even better, cut out completely.
  •         Heat can help. A hot water bottle or a blanket wrapped around the waist can cause the muscles to relax, and consequently, the cramps to be less intense.
  •         Exercising regularly will generally increase the blood flow, help balance the hormones and the menstrual cycle, and also reduce period pain.
  •         A well-balanced diet is important, and it is well known and proven that unhealthy food definitely affects the hormones. Fresh, organic fruit and vegetables, food rich in omega-3 fatty acids and magnesium can relieve menstrual pain. The fact that dark chocolate is rich in magnesium can explain our cravings. 
  •        If the pain is unbearable, a doctor can prescribe a pain killer, but it is more important to determine the cause of pain. In case of disorders such as endometriosis or fibroids, it is important to react immediately to prevent them from spreading. 
      Doctors usually prescribe contraceptives in order to regulate the menstrual cycle, which can help while the pill is being taken. However, there is a natural solution that has been helping women since the ancient times: medicinal herbs. Lady’s mantle is famous for relieving pre-menstrual symptoms, painful periods and disorders such as endometriosis, adenomyosis, uterine fibroids and infections. It is excellent when combined with yarrow, the famous spasmolytic. The unpleasant bloating before and at the beginning of the period is relieved by marigold, as it can eliminate water retention. Herb Robert can also reduce swelling and soothe the symptoms of PMS, but it also works as a mild sedative. Crane’s bill can reduce excessive bleeding, while golden maca is the mother of all medicinal herbs. Maca fortifies immunity, elevates energy levels and balances hormones, but can also soothe period symptoms, boost fertility and even help at the onset of menopause. If we add zinc to this super-herbal blend, which regulates metabolism, gene activity, normal cell division, boosts immunity, hormone balance and fertility, we get Femisan A plus Maca Capsules. Traditional knowledge is enhanced by modern science in this all-natural herbal preparation designed to help women overcome female disorders.

Embraced by Lady’s Mantle


Searching for the philosopher’s stone, which was supposed to enable them to turn metal into gold, the alchemists left us numerous legends. One of them says that the key ingredient required in the process was the guttation water on lady’s mantle leaves. The precious liquid is sap forming on the leaf, unique and pure. The alchemists never succeeded in their mission; however, their legend was not in vain.

Lady’s mantle, or Alchemillae folium, still holds the alchemy in its scientific name, for a good reason: it can help us obtain the greatest treasure of all – our health. Lady’s mantle has had a reputation of the protector of women for ages.

Long ago, when numerous pregnancies ended tragically, for the new born, the mother or both, women sought help in nature. And they found it in this precious herb. Today, with all the fantastic achievements of the modern medicine, women still largely suffer from reproductive system disorders. Moreover, one could say that the modern way of living has brought us numerous health issues, and is particularly to blame for reduced chances of conception.

Once again, we need to seek help in nature. Lady’s mantle, especially when combined with some other medicinal herbs, successfully fights the following disorders:
  •         Ovarian cysts
  •         Uterine fibroids and excessive bleeding
  •         Irregular periods
  •         Painful periods
  •         Endometriosis
  •         PCOS – Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
  •         Fibrocystic breast
  •         Infertility, inability to conceive
  •        Cervical lesions
  •        Premenstrual syndrome
  •        Hormonal mood swings
The tannin contained in Lady’s mantle not only tightens mucilage, thus protecting from infections and improving wound healing, but also strengthens the heart, alleviates stress and insomnia and helps us maintain healthy body weight.

Lady’s mantle is one of key ingredients of Femisan A Plus Maca Capsules. Completely natural and easy to use, Femisan A is the contemporary mantle protecting reproductive health of modern women.

Thrown off the Track by Hormones




Do you suffer from acne, memory fog, chronic fatigue, depression, anxiety or sleep disorder? Do you often feel frustrated, extremely emotional and find it difficult to stop binge eating? Do you have tension headaches, IBS, sudden weight gain and experience extreme flatulence? Is loss of libido ruining your relationship or marriage?

Do you know that all of these symptoms and conditions can be caused by hormonal imbalance? Our modern way of living made us drift too far away from nature. We often use medications, we are swamped with toxic plastic and polluted air, we give in to unhealthy diet rich in fats, sugars and meat full of steroids and antibiotics, we sit for too long, we don’t get enough sunshine, and we are on the Pill. As a consequence, we are witnesses of an epidemic of hormonal imbalance among women all around the world.



It may take a while before we realize that the symptoms we have been having are caused by hormonal imbalance. Apart from the reproductive system, it can harm the thyroid, the bones and muscles, the heart and veins and it can increase risk of tumors. When it hits the uterus and ovaries, apart from the above mentioned conditions, it can also cause:

·         irregular or missed periods
·         trouble in conceiving
·         PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)
·         ovarian cysts
·         cervical lesions
·         endometriosis
·         uterine fibroids
·         pre-menstrual symptoms
·         menstrual cramps and excessive bleeding during periods
·         fibrocystic breasts.

Once we get thrown off the track, going back is not easy. We are grateful to modern medicine for all the advances in various treatments of serious diseases, but when it comes to the hormones, apart from the synthetic substitutes, it does not have much to offer. Since the problem is caused by our drifting away from the nature, the solution, logically, would be to get closer to it once again. 


 
Throughout history, women sought help in green fields and woods. There is a vast traditional knowledge that cannot be denied even by modern science. Certain herbs help, and clinical trials have confirmed that the traditional beliefs are well founded.  

Lady’s mantle has been used for ages for female ailments and infertility. It contains tannins which have a strong astringent effect, thus preventing heavy bleeding, which explains why women with heavy, painful menstruations and uterine fibroids find it helpful. Studies proved that lady’s mantle is an efficient tumor inhibitor. Its effect on gastrointestinal disorders has also been proven.

Yarrow, known since ancient times, is known to alleviate cramps and pain, especially in the lower pelvic region. Its flavonoids have a spasmolytic effect, while pro-azulene soothes inflammations. It is an excellent remedy for painful periods.

Marigold can heal wounds, reduce inflammation, kill microbes and parasites and is an excellent diuretic. It prevents water retention during the pre-menstrual phase, and is a potent healer of uterine wounds, cysts and fibroids. Marigold is also used for dysmenorrhea.

Crane’s bill is another very potent herb and healer of wounds, it regulates blood circulation and works as a mild sedative. It is a strong antioxidant which prevents infections and boosts the immunity. It also contains tannins which prevent heavy bleeding.

Golden maca has been used for over two millennia in traditional medicine of the Andes as an adaptogenic herb, helping the body to adapt to harsh environmental conditions, increasing stamina and endurance. It balances hormones and has a very beneficial overall effect, both on the body and mind. It eliminates depression and brain fog, and is particularly useful in stopping the pre-menstrual energy and mood roller-coaster. Its alkaloids work against infertility.

Shepherd’s purse can regulate uterine contraction, blood flow and balance menstrual bleeding. It heals wounds and burns and is also very beneficial for the heart.

These six medicinal herbs, together with zinc which is a potent essential element and antioxidant, are assembled in Femisan A in well-studied doses, aiming to help women from the moment they enter puberty, till the menopause. Femisan A, the potent protector of women, brings us closer to nature.
