Synopsis
Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2
Clerodendrum phlomidis, commonly known as Arni or Agnimantha, has a long history of use in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. In this system, it is considered a key herb for managing reproductive health in both men and women. Traditional texts describe its use in formulations intended to address gynecological disorders, infertility, and to promote general reproductive vitality. Specifically, Agnimantha is considered to help regulate menstrual cycles, alleviate menstrual pain, and act as an aphrodisiac. It is also used in various classical Ayurvedic preparations such as Dashamoola, which is prescribed for female reproductive complaints and postpartum recovery. While there are a few in vivo and in vitro studies indicating Clerodendrum phlomidis possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and adaptogenic properties, direct scientific validation for its effects on the reproductive system is minimal. Most available research focuses on its general health benefits rather than specific reproductive outcomes. Therefore, its use for reproductive health remains primarily grounded in traditional knowledge rather than robust scientific evidence. More clinical research would be needed to confirm these traditional claims.
