Abstract:
Introduction. Menstrual bleeding cessation is one of the most frequent gynecologic disorders among women in reproductive age. The treatment is based on hormone therapy. Due to the increasing request for alternative medicine remedies in the field of women’s diseases, in present study, it was tried to overview medicinal plants used to treat oligomenorrhea and amenorrhea according to the pharmaceutical textbooks of traditional Persian medicine (TPM) and review the evidence in the conventional medicine. Methods. This systematic review was designed and performed in 2017 in order to gather information regarding herbal medications of oligomenorrhea and amenorrhea in TPM and conventional medicine. This study had several steps as searching Iranian traditional medicine literature and extracting the emmenagogue plants, classifying the plants, searching the electronic databases, and finding evidences. To search traditional Persian medicine references, Noor digital library was used, which includes several ancient traditional medical references. The classification of plants was done based on the repetition and potency of the plants in the ancient literatures. The required data was gathered using databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, Science Direct, and web of knowledge. Results. In present study of all 198 emmenagogue medicinal plants found in TPM, 87 cases were specified to be more effective in treating oligomenorrhea and amenorrhea. In second part of present study, where a search of conventional medicine was performed, 12 studies were found, which had 8 plants investigated: Vitex agnus-castus, Trigonella foenum-graecum, Foeniculum vulgare, Cinnamomum verum, Paeonia lactiflora, Sesamum indicum, Mentha longifolia, and Urtica dioica. Conclusion. Traditional Persian medicine has proposed many different medicinal plants for treatment of oligomenorrhea and amenorrhea. Although just few plants have been proven to be effective for treatment of menstrual irregularities, the results and the classification in present study can be used as an outline for future studies and treatment.

Abstract:
Background: Saffron is a significant medicinal herb that has a lot of potential for use in the development of new drugs. Since ancient times, saffron (Crocus sativus L.) has been associated with various health benefits in various parts of the world. Some of these applications have been overlooked over time. However, interest in naturally occurring active compounds has rekindled interest in saffron's past applications and the best applications for saffron today can be aided by knowing its various historical uses. It was prized as a culinary spice as well as a perfume, color, and medicinal herb. It was used medicinally in many different cultures to treat a wide range of ailments, from genitourinary to eye problems. In many countries, it was also used as an antidepressant and tonic substance. Objective: The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the traditional and modern uses of Crocus sativus, with particular attention to its chemical makeup, pharmacological characteristics, and ethnobotanical description. Methodology: Scientific databases and publications about the chemical profile, biological activity, and historical use of saffron were included in the literature search. Results: Saffron is bitter, acrid, fragrant, stimulant, tonic, stomachic, aphrodisiac, anodyne, antispasmodic, emmenagogue, diuretic, laxative, galactagogue, and helpful in treating bronchitis, vomiting, fever, melancholia, hepatomegaly, etc. it is widely used in alternative medicine, such as the Unani System of Medicine, Ayurveda, and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Saffron has been the subject of numerous phytochemical and biochemical studies due to its extensive use in traditional medical systems. These studies have revealed that saffron contains a number of constituents, including crocetin, safranal, and crocins, the latter of which is primarily responsible for pharmacological actions. Keywords; saffron, medicinal herb, unani medicine, crocetin, safranal, emmenagogue.

Abstract:
The plant world is a significant source of remedies for various illnesses, with 80% of developing nations using herbal medicine. Research is focused on the discovery of safer and more effective medicinal drugs, particularly in the screening of herbs for pharmacological activity and phytochemical ingredients. Ocimum basilicum, a common plant known for its beauty and medicinal properties, is a key focus. Its leaves are used as expectorants, demulcents, emmenagogues, and exhilarants, and its leaves are often aromatic, fragrant, and antibacterial. Basil seeds are also used as a plant seedling growth agent and an edible film that decomposes naturally. This study on basil seeds' chemical composition, nutritional value, and medicinal properties will help identify research gaps and provide an overview for future opportunities.

Abstract:
Saffron spice also known as Crocus sativus (Saffron crocus) belongs to the family of iridaceae. Many studies have proved its potential role in disease eradication. It has been reported to possess the attributes of a sedative, an anti-asthma, an emmenagogue, an expectorant, and an adaptogenic agent. Crocin, crocetin, and safranal are the most important biochemically active ingredients that were found in different parts of the plants in varying proportions like the peels, fruits, seeds, and rind of Crocus sativus. The in vitro and in vivo studies showed that saffron has got its therapeutic implication in health management via anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, hepatoprotective, and anti-tumour activity. This review attempts to reveal the potential pharmacological properties of Crocus sativus. It also draws attention towards the use of herbs and spices in various ailments without facing the harmful side effects of chemically derived medicine.

Abstract:
Ruta graveolens L., a multipurpose perennial herb, belongs to the family Rutaceae. It is a native of the Mediterranean region and is commonly known as Garden Rue or Herb of Grace. From time immemorial, Rue has been known for its rich aromatic and medicinal properties. More than 120 compounds of different classes of natural products, such as acridone alkaloids, coumarins, essential oils, flavonoids and furanoquinolines, have been isolated from R. graveolens. Having a vast range of secondary metabolites, this plant has been used worldwide for several therapeutic usages. The essential oil obtained from the distillation of the entire plant has several therapeutic values. The entire plant is used as an abortifacient, anthelmintic, antispasmodic, carminative, emmenagogue, expectorant, haemostatic, ophthalmic, and rubefacient. Besides pharmaceutical applications, this plant is used in cosmetics and food items. Ripened fruits are used as condiments and leaves are used to make pickles. Several effective protocols for micropropagation have been developed by several researchers. Due to its vast usage, the plant is disappearing in the wild. Conventional propagation methods do not meet the market demands. Hence, there is an urgent need to shift to in vitro methods for quick and genetically elite plant production. In this chapter, detailed protocols for in vitro propagation methods are discussed.

Abstract:
Rosemary, Rosmarinus officinalis , is a plant from the Lamiaceae family, with stomachic, stimulant, antispasmodic, emmenagogue and healing properties. Thus, considering the lack of information on the cultivation of R. officinalis in the urban environment , this study aimed to evaluate the effect of two doses of organic fertilizer on the growth and biomass production of rosemary. The treatments consisted of two doses of organic cattle manure fertilizer (1 L and 3 L pit -1 ) at four evaluation times (128, 149, 170 and 191 days after planting). The plants subjected to the two organic fertilizer treatments did not show significant differences at all evaluation times in the variables evaluated. However, in the treatment of 3 L of pit -1 organic fertilizer, the plants showed greater biomass production. In the treatment with 3 L of organic fertilizer, the production of fresh biomass allows us to estimate a productivity of 3.9 t ha -1 . From the results obtained in the present study, it was found that rosemary production had great potential to be implemented in small urban areas or in consumers' homes with a reduction in the cost of transportation and the final product.
