In India, Shatavari is considered the women’s equivalent to Ashwagandha. Interestingly, the name Shatavari means a woman who has a hundred husbands. Now we would all agree that to possess a hundred husbands and to keep all of them pacified, a woman would need tremendous sexual prowess and energy. Shatavari must have helped women in ancient times achieve the desired level of libido, in order to have a fulfilling conjugal life, even with multiple partners.

The Indian Asparagus is known for its healing properties throughout the world, but little do we know that it helps in maintaining the hormonal balance in a woman’s body. Now we all know that a perfect hormonal balance is necessary for healthy libido in women. This herb also purifies blood and rejuvenates the entire reproductive tract, by cleansing and strengthening it. Healthy reproductive organs and strong vaginal muscles promote a higher female libido, ensuring a more fulfilling sex life for a woman.

Shatavari or the Indian Asparagus has amazing healing properties that help in repairing small-scale damages in the reproductive organs of a woman. Also, it is very rich in phyto-estrogens or plant estrogens, which are a great supplement for enhancing the female libido. Because of these properties, Asparagus helps largely in relieving women from menstruation related pain and stress. It is beneficial for both mitigating menopausal and post-menopausal symptoms, like hot flashes, restlessness and anxiety. In young women, it repairs the loss of blood during menstruation and eases out pelvic and vaginal cramps to a large extent.

Some women have regular but serious problems of white discharge or Leucorrhoea. It is both disturbing and unhealthy for a woman. It not only causes weakness in the body but also loss in female libido. Shatavari is known to help in such situations. It controls the damage and inflammation of female reproductive organs. Morning sickness and nausea stresses out pregnant women soon. It also hampers the female libido to some extent, as most women lose interest in a regular sex life. Shatavari is safe for pregnant women also. It can help in relieving morning sickness greatly.

Because it has no side effects, women can take it freely. It balances the pH balance in the vaginal cavity and enhances the female libido considerably. It is truly a libido-rejuvenating herb for women-truly a nature’s gift.
