Ayurveda signifies Asparagus racemosus, as an important herb to treat disorders affecting women’s health and classify it as:

• Medhya: Enhancing intelligence, promoting learning and memory

• Balya: As strength promoter
• Stanya: As a galactagogue  (induces milk secretion)
• Jeevaniya– As an erythropoietic

The modern Ayurvedic practices utilize the roots of herbs as an antispasmodic, appetizer, stomach tonic, aphrodisiac, galactagogue, astringent, antidiarrheal, anti-dysenteric, laxative, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, blood purifier, anti-tubercular, antiepileptic and night blindness, kidney problems, and throat complaints. Shatavari shows the galactagogue effect. It regulates hormonal secretion, which induces milk production in nursing women. Traditionally, Shatavari tubers are eaten by a nursing woman for the production of breast milk. Shatavari rejoices its richness in medicinal properties that have been utilized by the people for centuries. Apart from its major role in inducing lactation, Shatavari has been used for gastric ulcers and dyspepsia.
