Possibilities of using essential oils in obstetric and gynecological practice

Abstract

The review discusses the prospects for the use of essential oils in medicine. It was found that drugs based on herbal remedies containing essential oils combine safety, a wide range of pharmacological activity, including anxiolytic, antiviral, immunomodulating, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. The above studies indicate their high demand in medicine, in particular in the treatment of urogenital infections in pregnant women, and the properties of essential oils and the physiological aspects of their effects on the body have not been fully studied; the range of their use in obstetric and gynecological practice can be significantly expanded.
