Special Precautions of Pygeum

Benefits and uses of Pygeum are

The African tree bark extract called pygeum is one of the world's most popular prostate remedies. Many studies show it improves urinary flow, reduces the number of times you have to pee each night and even relieves pain with urination. Pygeum contains chemicals that help shrink the prostate to relieve urinary problems such as poor urine flow and nighttime urination in men with enlarged prostates.

  • Low urine flow, nighttime urinating, and other symptoms of an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH). In one French study, patients taking pygeum significantly reduced their need to urinate and more completely emptied their bladders. In another study, nearly 2 out of 3 men improved their urinary function.
  • Pygeum also acts as a natural antibiotic. That means it can help relieve symptoms of prostatitis. Prostatitis causes painful urination, back and groin pain, fever and frequent urges to pee.
