HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Chasteberry by Ra Herbals

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 12, 2026

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 1 active ingredient.

This product contains one active ingredient: chasteberry (vitex agnus-castus), a plant extract traditionally used to support hormonal balance. The liquid form also contains cane alcohol and distilled water as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Women's hormonal and menstrual cycle support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Amenorrhea, Dysmenorrhea, Fibrocystic breast disease, Hyperprolactinemia, Infertility, Mastalgia — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitex Agnus-castus is rated "Possibly Effective" for Mastalgia (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitex Agnus-castus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Amenorrhea, Fibrocystic breast disease, Hyperprolactinemia, Menopausal symptoms, and more.

Chasteberry is possibly effective for premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and mastalgia (breast tenderness related to the menstrual cycle). For other uses — anxiety, aging skin, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) — the evidence we hold is insufficient to rate it.

For fractures, available evidence suggests it's possibly ineffective.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitex Agnus-castus

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Chasteberry is generally well tolerated when taken short-term, though the safety notes advise caution because it may affect hormones and should be used under guidance. The most commonly reported side effects include diarrhea, fatigue, headache, insomnia, irregular menstruation, nausea, stomach pain, and vomiting.

Skin irritation, rash, acne, and hair loss have also been reported. Because it may influence hormones, the safety data advises against use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Vitex Agnus-castus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 121 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, check whether you're on any antipsychotic medication, metoclopramide (Reglan), oral contraceptives, estrogens or hormone replacement therapy, or dopamine agonists. All of these carry Moderate-severity interaction concerns with chasteberry.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Chasteberry may help with PMS symptoms and breast tenderness, but only if you're not on hormonal medications, antipsychotics, or dopamine-related drugs. If you take birth control, hormone therapy, or any psychiatric medication, talk to your pharmacist before starting.

Pregnant and breastfeeding people should skip it.
