Herbal cuisine: ovulation tea for women

For many couples, the unfulfilled desire to have children is a serious issue. Hormonal imbalances in the woman's body can prevent ovulation. However, this can be counteracted with an organic tea blend:

50g angelica root
50g mugwort
40g damiana leaves
30g real verbena
30g rosemary

It is ideal to use these herbs in organic quality. Mix the dried herbs together and store in an airtight tin.

Preparation Pour 1/4 litre of boiling water over 2 heaped teaspoons and leave to infuse for 10-12 minutes. Pour through a sieve or cloth and drink.

Timing This tea blend is most effective if 3 cups are drunk daily before or between meals from the last menstrual period until ovulation.

Effect The herbs in this tea blend stimulate the pituitary gland and thus warm the abdominal cavity. This supports the ovaries, which can work better and ovulation occurs. For this reason, this tea blend is considered helpful when trying to conceive, but also for small cysts, especially retention cysts.
