During the last stage of the menstrual cycle, normally a layer of endometriosis lining on the inside of the uterus is expelled, known as menstruation blood, instead some of the endometriosis tissues grow somewhere in the body to cause endometriosis. Endometriosis also react to hormone signals of the monthly menstrual cycle, by building and breaking up tissues and eliminating them through menstrual period.

Chaste tree used to treat hormone imbalance associated with pre-menstrual syndrome In Europe is a large shrub native to the Mediterranean and southern Europe.
The effects
1. Immune system
Chaste tree contains irioid glycoside (1), a plant element that helps to increase the secondary metabolism which strengthens our immune system to fight inflammation(3), abnormal cell growth(1), and the invasion of virus(1).

 2.  Nervous system(2)
Irioids also helps to release the tension of overactive cells in the brain during menstrual cycle resulting in lowering the symptoms of endometriosis such as depression, anxiety, craving, etc.(4).

 3. Isoflavones
Some women with endometriosis may experience heavy flow during menstruation caused by the breaking off of the small vein in the abdomen. Isoflavones in the chaste tree berry helps to strengthen the capillary wall, thus reducing the flow and the tension of overactive uterine muscles(5) that cause menstrual pain(5).

 4. Hormone balancing(6)
Chaste tree berry contains high levels of plant progesterone which is necessary for women with endometriosis to balance the levels of estrogen(6)(7) that cause menstrual cramps(8).

 5. Absence of period
Since absence of period may be caused by high levels of hyperprolactinaemia(10), affecting the function of ovaries in ovulation. Chaste tree reduces levels of prolactinaemia, which is necessary  to bring on the menstruation(9).
