Abstract

Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a common endocrine-metabolic illness marked by polycystic ovaries, persistent anovulation, and hyperandrogenism, resulting in symptoms of monthly irregularity, infertility, and hirsutism. Various medicinal therapies for polycystic ovarian syndrome have been offered. However, the potential adverse effects of long-term therapies, as well as their limited effectiveness, have made complementary and alternative treatments a viable choice. According to recent estimates, the usage of complementary therapies is on the rise. Various plants like Saraca asoka, Moringa olifera, Asparagus racemosus, Cimicifuga racemose etc., proved active in the treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome. In this review, attempts have been made to summarize the important medicinal plants which are used in the treatment or prevention of polycystic ovarian syndrome. This article will be helpful for the upcoming researchers in their investigation of Polycystic ovarian syndrome.
