A recent study in the prestigious British Medical Journal reported that chaste tree helped relieve PMS symptoms such as bloating, breast fullness, headache, irritability and mood swings.
170 women in the study used either chaste tree or a placebo for 3 consecutive menstrual cycles. 52% of the women taking chaste tree experienced relief of PMS symptoms (compared to only 24% taking the placebo).

The researchers concluded that chaste tree berry "is an effective and well tolerated
treatment for the relief of symptoms of the premenstrual syndrome."
