Urogenital atrophy is a condition of changes in the vagina and urethra due to declining estrogen levels in these tissues.

The finding of a natural source for reduced risk and treatment of Amenorrhea to replace the conventional medicine has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in either large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Amenorrhea is an absence of period for at least three cycles (six months), excluding before puberty, during pregnancy, and after menopause.
Estrogen therapy significant increase of serum luteinizing hormone (LH) and LH response to GnRH were noted after recovery in patient with functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA)(1).
According to the Keiju Medical Center, phytoestrogen found in black soy bean resumed the anovular menstrual cycle, suffering from secondary amenorrhea(2).

Injection of phytoestrogen orally may be benefits for women with Amenorrhea as it has shown to consist anti estrogenic and estrogenic(4) effect depending to the levels of estrogen of the patients.
According to University La Sapienza, in the study of a total of 134 women aged 25-35 years, who were infertile for at least 2 years and who had oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea associated with a positive menstrual response to the intramuscular progesterone-challenge test, showed that high dose of phytoestrogens increased follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and 17beta-estradiol plasma concentrations and can reverse the deleterious effects of clomiphene citrate on endometrial thickness and could contribute to higher pregnancy rates.(3).

Ginseng is a slow-growing perennial plants with fleshy roots, the genus Panax, belongings to the family Araliaceae. Depending to the climate where it grows, ginseng can be classified mainly into Panax ginseng Asian ginseng (root), Red ginseng, wild ginseng, American ginseng (root). The herb(Panax ginseng) may be used for treatment of reduced estrogen levels due to aging in women because of its ginsenoside Rb in exhibited phytoestrogen like effects(5).

According to the China Pharmaceutical University in ovariectomized mice study suggested that ginsenoside Rb1 (Rb1) isolated from Panax ginseng, increased 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) concentration via its estrogen-like effect(6).

The effectiveness of Cabbage, Honey and Panax Ginseng Powder may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies in production of a potential medication for for Reduced Risk of Consequences of Urogenital atrophy with little or no adverse effects.
Intake of Smoothie of Alfalfa Sprouts Juice, Panax Ginsengr may Reduced Risk and treatment of Amenorrhea
Life style and dietary patter change are recommended.

Health Benefits
1. Neuroprotective effects
in the investigation of the neuroprotective effects of cyanidin-3-O-beta-d-glucopyranoside (C3G) from the mulberry fruits on neuronal cell damage, found that the neuroprotective effect of the mulberry fruit extract was further demonstrated in vivo using a mouse-brain-injury model with a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). C3G was isolated as a neuroprotective constituent from the mulberry fruit extract. Compared with the control group, C3G had neuroprotective effects on the PC12 cells exposed to hydrogen peroxide in vitro and on cerebral ischemic damage in vivo, according to “Neuroprotective effects of the cyanidin-3-O-beta-d-glucopyranoside isolated from mulberry fruit against cerebral ischemia” by
Kang TH, Hur JY, Kim HB, Ryu JH, Kim SY.(1).

 2. Antioxidants
In the investigation of the oxidative damage of ultraviolet A (UVA) to human immortalized keratinocytes line HaCaT and the protective effects of total flavonoids of Broussonetia papyrifera (TFBP) gotten from the leaves of broussonetia papyifera, found that Ultraviolet A causes significant oxidative injury to HaCaT cells under the conditions of this study. TFBP gotten from the leaves of broussonetia papyrifera has certain protective effect on HaCaT epithelial cells, according to “[Protective effects of total flavonoids of Broussonetia papyrifera on oxidative injury of ultraviolet A to human keratinocytes].[Article in Chinese]” by Wang T, Yang XY, He R, Cao YG.(2).

3. Candida albicans
In the investigation of Papyriflavonol A (PapA), a prenylated flavonoid (5,7,3′,4′-tetrahydroxy-6,5′-di-(r,r-dimethylallyl)-flavonol), isolated from the root barks of Broussonetia papyriferra and theirs effect against Candida albicans, found that The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were 10~25 microgram/ml for C. albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium) and gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus). The kinetics of cell growth inhibition, scanning electron microscopy, and measurement of plasma membrane florescence anisotrophy revealed that the antifungal activity of PapA against C. albicans and S. cerevisiae is mediated by its ability to disrupt the cell membrane integrity. Compared with amphotericin B, a cell membrane disrupting polyene antibiotic, the hemolytic toxicity of PapA was negligible. At 10~25 microgram/ml of MIC levels for the tested strains, the hemolysis ratio of human erythrocytes was less than 5%, according to “Fungicidal effect of prenylated flavonol, papyriflavonol A, isolated from Broussonetia papyrifera (L.) vent. against Candida albicans” bySohn HY, Kwon CS, Son KH.(3).

4. Antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity
In thedetermination of MIC using the broth microdilution methods against four bacterial and two fungal microorganisms (Candida albicans, Saccaromyces cerevisiae, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus epidermis and S. aureus), found that the use of prenylated flavonoids in Asian traditional medicine to treat microbial infection and indicate a high potential for prenylated flavonoids as antimicrobial agents as well as anti-inflammatory agents, according to “Antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity of 18 prenylated flavonoids isolated from medicinal plants: Morus alba L., Morus mongolica Schneider, Broussnetia papyrifera (L.) Vent, Sophora flavescens Ait and Echinosophora koreensis Nakai” by.Sohn HY, Son KH, Kwon CS, Kwon GS, Kang SS(4).

5. Respiratory burst in neutrophils
In the investigation of Broussochalcone A, a prenylated chalcone isolated from Broussonetia papyrifera (L.) VENT. (Moraceae), inhibited O2 consumption in formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)- and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-stimulated rat neutrophils in a concentration-dependent manner with IC50 values of 70.3 +/- 4.9 and 63.9 +/- 7.1 microM, respectively, found that the inhibitory effect of broussochalcone A on respiratory burst in neutrophils is not mediated by the reduction of phospholipase C activity, but is mediated partly by the suppression of protein kinase C activity through interference with the catalytic region and by the attenuation of O2.- generation from the NADPH oxidase complex, according to “Investigation of the inhibitory effect of broussochalcone A on respiratory burst in neutrophils” by Wang JP, Tsao LT, Raung SL, Lin CN.(5).

Obesity is a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

You can calculate your BMI index BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

Breast cancer (malignant breast neoplasm) is a cancer that starts in the tissues of the breast either from the inner lining of milk ducts (Ductal carcinoma) or the lobules (Lobular carcinoma) that supply the ducts with milk. there is also rare cases that breast cancer starts in other areas of the breast. In 2010, over 250,000 new cases of breast cancer were expected to be diagnosed in women in the U.S. alone and the risk of getting invasive breast cancer during life time of a women is 1/8.


The association of Obesity on Breast Cancer
1. In a study of "Hormonal mechanisms underlying the relationship betweenobesity and breast cancer" by Perks CM, Holly JM. (Source from School of Clinical Sciences, University of Bristol, Research & Learning Building, Southmead Hospital, Bristol BS10 5NB, UK.,Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved), posted in PubMed, researchers indicated in abstract that This review focuses on the influence of obesity on breast cancer development and progression and describes the hormonal factors that may underlie the observations, with particular emphasis on the roles of estrogen, insulin/insulin-like growth factor axis, and adipokines.

2. According to the study of "Obesity, weight change, fasting insulin, proinsulin, C-peptide, and insulin-like growth factor-1 levels in women with and without breast cancer: the Rancho Bernardo Study" by Jernström H, Barrett-Connor E. (Source from Department of Family and Preventive Medicine, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, USA., J Womens Health Gend Based Med. 1999 Dec;8(10):1265-72.), researchers indicated in abstract that The risk of breast cancer was significantly increased in women who had gained weight or used ERT. This increased risk was not associated with circulating levels of IGF-1, fasting insulin, proinsulin, or C-peptide.

3. According to" Breast cancer risk in the WHI study: the problem of obesity" by Kuhl H. (Source from Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, J. W. Goethe University of Frankfurt, Theodor-Stern-Kai 7, D-60590 Frankfurt am Main, Germany. h.kuhl@em.uni-frankfurt.de, Maturitas. 2005 May 16;51(1):83-97.), posted in PubMed, researchers stated in abstract that Obese women are at high risk to develop a metabolic syndrome including insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. In postmenopausal women, elevated insulin levels are not only associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease, but also for breast cancer. This might explain the effects observed in both arms of the WHI study: HRT with relative low doses of estrogens may improve insulin resistance and, hence, reduce the elevated breast cancer risk in obese patients.

4. According to tha study of "Polymorphisms in three obesity-related genes (LEP, LEPR, and PON1) and breast cancer risk: a meta-analysis" by Liu C, Liu L.(Source from Department of Clinical Laboratory, Taizhou Municipal Hospital, Taizhou, 318000, China, liuchibo@126.com., Tumour Biol. 2011 Sep 2. [Epub ahead of print]), posted in PubMed, researchers concluded that . The present meta-analysis suggested that LEPR Q223R polymorphism might be implicated in the development of breast cancer in East Asians; PON1 L55M might increasebreast cancer risk. However, given the limited sample size, the findings warrant further investigation.

5. In the study of "Obesity and breast cancer: progress to understanding the relationship" by Brown KA, Simpson ER. (Source from Prince Henry's Institute, Monash Medical Centre, Department of Physiology, Monash University, Clayton, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, Cancer Res. 2010 Jan 1;70(1):4-7. Epub 2009 Dec 22.), posted in PubMed, researchers found that the regulation of aromatase expression in the breast by AMPK and CRTC2, in response to the altered adipokine milieu associated with obesity, provides an important link betweenobesity and breast cancer risk.

Treatments of Obesity and Breast Cancer
1. According to the study of "Pre-operative gynecologic evaluation of bariatric surgery patients: improving cancer detection in a high-risk population" by Winfree LE, Henretta MS, Hallowell PT, Modesitt SC. (Source from Division of Gynecologic Oncology, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Virginia Health System, Charlottesville, VA, USA.,J Am Coll Surg. 2010 Aug;211(2):256-62., Copyright 2010 American College of Surgeons. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Given the massive increases in morbid obesity and bariatric surgery in women, surgeons could serve a vital role in educating patients about both gynecologic and nongynecologic malignancy risks. With appropriate referral for cancer screening, patient outcomes could improve.

2. In a study of " Alcohol consumption, obesity, estrogen treatment andbreast cancer" by Hong J, Holcomb VB, Dang F, Porampornpilas K, Núñez NP.(Source from The University of Texas at Austin, College of Natural Sciences, School of Human Ecology, Department of Nutritional Science, 1 University Station A2703, PAI 5.14, Austin, Texas 78712, USA., Anticancer Res. 2010 Jan;30(1):1-8), posted in PubMed, researchers found that Alcohol intake resulted in insulin sensitivity and increased tumor growth in obese mice. Exogenous estrogen alone inhibited tumor growth. The combination of estrogen and alcohol overcame the inhibitory effects of estrogen on tumor growth in obese mice. Alcohol consumption increased the circulating estrogen and leptin levels. In conclusion, alcohol and estrogen treatment can modify mammary tumor growth, possibly through the regulation of estrogen and leptin, especially in obese mice.

3. According to the "Impact of obesity on diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer" by Deglise C, Bouchardy C, Burri M, Usel M, Neyroud-Caspar I, Vlastos G, Chappuis PO, Ceschi M, Ess S, Castiglione M, Rapiti E, Verkooijen HM.(Source from Geneva Cancer Registry, Institute of Social and Preventive Medicine, Geneva University, 55 Boulevard de la Cluse, 1205, Geneva, Switzerland, Breast Cancer Res Treat. 2010 Feb;120(1):185-93. Epub 2009 Jul 14), researchers found that Obese women were less likely to have undergone ultrasound (OR(adj) 0.5, [0.3-0.9]) and MRI (OR(adj) 0.3, [0.1-0.6]) and were at increased risk of prolonged hospital stay (OR(adj) 4.7, [2.0-10.9]). This study finds important diagnostic and therapeutic differences between obese and lean women, which may impair survival of obese women with breast cancer. Specific strategies are needed to optimize the care of obese women with or at risk of breast cancer.

                Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is defined as endocrinologic diseases among reproductive-age women caused by undeveloped follicles clumping on the ovaries that interferes with the function of the normal ovaries associated with a high risk for metabolic disorder(1) as resulting of enlarged ovaries(2), leading to hormone imbalance(excessive androgen and anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) )(1)(3)(4)(5), induced Hirsutism(6)(7), reproductive disorder(10(12)), risks of type 2 diabetes(9)(10)(11), metabolic syndrome(10)(12) and early cardiovascular disease(8)(13), acne(10)(14), endometrial cancer(18)(19),weight gain and obesity(15)(16)(17). The syndrome effects over 5% of women population or 1 in 20 women.
Unfortunately, according to studies, women with PCOs after the reproductive age, are associated to continuously increase risk of type II diabetes, with no increasingaltered glucose tolerance(20), CVD and hypertension(21).


 The prevention and management In Herbal Medicine

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is unpreventable in Western medicine. Early diagnosis and treatment may reduce risk of its complications, including infertility, metabolic syndrome, obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, stroke, etc.
Reduce fat intake less than 30% of total calories with a low proportion of saturated fat and high in fiber from predominantly low-glycaemic-index-carbohydrate foods for patients with PCOs(827a). Calorie intake should be distributed between several meals per day with restricted intake of snacks and drinks(828).

    The Herbal Treatment for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOs)


Epidemically, increased incidence and prevalence of overweight and obesity over 3 decades in the develop world now has spread to South East Asian population, due to over 20 years of economic prosperity causes of lifestyle changes in populations with very different initial habits. Suggestions of reduced fat intake less than 30% of total calories with a low proportion of saturated fat with high in fiber from predominantly low-glycaemic-index-carbohydrate foods is recommended. Calorie intake should be distributed between several meals per day with restricted intake of snacks and drinks(827a)(828).

1. Turmeric

2. Korean red ginseng
Ginseng Asia is also known as Panax ginseng. Since it has been grown in the cold places in the Asian, Asian ginseng is considered as yang promoting, according to traditional Chinese medicine.
Korean red ginseng extract (KRGE) in the experiment in PCOs induced rodent, improved PCO-related ovarian dysfunction(830). In rat model, induced by injection of estradiol valerate (EV), the extract also regulated sympathetic nerve activity by significantly lower expression of NGF protein (involved in the growth of peripheral nerve cells) and NGF mRNA(the form of RNA that carries information from DNA)involved in the abnormal process caused by steroid-induced PCO(830). Also, in the experiment of Ginseng total saponins (GTS) involved polycystic ovaries induced by a single intramuscular injection of 4 mg estradiol valerate (EV) in rats, GTS decreased the expression of NGF in ovary tissue(831).

3. Aloe vera
Aloe Vera is species of succulent plant in the genus Aloe, belonging to the Family Xanthorrhoeaceae, native to Sudan. It has become very popular for commercial cultivation due to its health benefits. Aloe vera has been used in herbal medicine in treating many kinds of disease, including wound(842), burn healing(835)(836), minor skin infections(837), sebaceous cysts(838), diabetes(839)(840)(843), and elevated of cholesterol(841), etc. It is also one of many popular herb studied in scientific ways with some conflicted results.
Aloe vera gel (AVG) exhibited significant reduction in plasma triglyceride and LDL cholesterol levels, with an increase in HDL cholesterol(843) and reversion of abnormal estrous cyclicity, glucose intolerance, and lipid metabolizing enzyme activities, to normal in PCOS induced in Charles Foster female rats(833). On Letrozole induced polycystic ovarian, Aloe vera gel formulation exerted a protective effect against the PCOS phenotype by restoring the ovarian steroid status, and altering key production of steroids activity(834).

4. Salvia miltiorrhiza (Dan Shen)
Dan Shen is also known as Red Sage Root. The bitter and slightly cold herb has been used in TCM as antithrombotic, antihypertonic (lowering blood pressure), antimicrobial, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, sedative agent and to treat dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea, palpable tumors, angina,restlessness, insomnia, irritability, etc., by enhancing the functions of heart and liver(848).
Cryptotanshinone, isolated from Salvia miltiorrhiza, in the experiment involved prenatally androgenized (PNA) rats as a model of polycystic ovary syndrome, improved estrous cycles, reduced 17-hydroxyprogesterone, androstenedione, testosterone, glucose, insulin levels, and lowered AUC-Glu(Measurements were made of the area under the curve of glucose by intravenous glucose tolerance test) and HOMA-IR( a method used to quantify insulin resistance and beta-cell function)(832).

5. Chamomile
Chamomile is also known as camomile, common name of many species daisy-like plants in the family Asteraceae, used in traditional medicine as antispasmodic(844) and anti-inflammatory(845) constituents and for treatments ofdiarrhea(844), menstrual cramps(844) and sleep disorders(847), reduce cramping and spastic pain in the bowels(844), relieve excessive gas and bloating in the intestine(844), etc.
Intraperitoneal injections of Chamomile alcoholic-extract for ten days in the testing on the biochemical and clinical parameters in a rat model of PCOS not only induced recovery from a PCO induced state in rats(846), but also increased dominant follicles and better endometrial tissue arrangements(846)(849).

6. Spearmint tea
Spearmint tea is a species of Mint belonging to the Lamiaceae, native to Europe and southwest Asia.

In Hirsutism polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), drinking spearmint teatwice a day for a 1 month period, showed the significantly reduce total testosterone levels, due to the inhibition of androgen properties(853). In other study of polycystic ovary syndrome and idiopathic hirsutism, steep Spearmint tea for 5 days twice a day in the follicular phase of their menstrual cycles significant decreased in free testosterone and increased in luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone and estradiol(854).
