Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Bovine (unspecified), often referring to various extracts from cow organs or tissues, has a history of use in traditional medicine, particularly within glandular therapy. Glandular therapy is based on the "like supports like" concept, suggesting that consuming animal organs can support the corresponding human organ. In the context of ovarian health, bovine ovary extracts have been included in some supplements with the belief that they may provide nutritional components, hormones, or cofactors beneficial to human ovarian function. However, scientific validation for these claims is extremely limited. There are few, if any, well-designed clinical trials demonstrating that bovine extracts directly support ovarian health or function. Regulatory agencies, such as the FDA, have not approved bovine ovary supplements for any specific health claims, and concerns exist regarding safety, purity, and potential for disease transmission. Most evidence supporting the use of bovine (unspecified) for the ovaries is anecdotal or based on historical practices rather than rigorous scientific studies. Therefore, while there is a tradition of use in specific alternative medicine circles, the overall evidence supporting efficacy is weak.
