Emmenagogue - emmenagogue

Japanese: 通経薬 - つうけいやく（英語表記）emmenagogue
Emmenagogue - emmenagogue
Drugs that improve or eliminate menstrual stagnation. Plant-based laxatives (such as aloe vera) have long been used to treat irregular menstruation, but their direct effectiveness is questionable. Follicle-stimulating hormones are sometimes used to stimulate the onset of menstruation. The term emmenagogues often refers to uterine stimulants and abortifacients such as ergot.
