Impact on female reproductive system

Reference

Green tea

- Associated with anti-oxidative, anti-fibrotic, anti-proliferative, and pro-apoptotic mechanisms

- Enhances ovulation and reduces cyst formation

- Improves hyperalgesia and reduces uterine contractility

- Catechins present in green tea have reduced excess reactive oxygen species during in vitro fertilization

- Reduced reactive oxygen species actually decrease granulose cell apoptosis and allow for improved oocyte maturation
