Borovaya uterus, or ortilia unilateral, is a popular folk medicine used to treat gynecological disorders in women, inflammatory diseases of the digestive tract, and prostate adenoma in men.
Borovaya uterus is the popular name of the plant, found in reference books and on sale under the name ortilia lopsided, and it is also called “the herb for 40 diseases.” It is found almost everywhere in the forests of our country and is widely used in official and folk medicine.
Description of the plant and its chemical properties
The boron uterus in official sources has a different name - “one-sided ortilia”. This is a perennial plant belonging to the heather family. It has thin stems with ovate leaves. The flowers are white, small in size, resembling bells. They are collected in a one-sided hanging brush.
The above-ground part of the herb (leaves, shoots, flowers) is used for therapeutic purposes. It is collected in the first half of summer, when active flowering occurs. Dry the plant in the shade, spreading it in a thin layer. It is found in meadows, swamps and mountains. Distributed in Russia, Belarus and the Caucasus.
Ortilia lopsided is considered a female plant due to the high content of phytohormones in its composition. Phytoprogesterone and phytoestrogen can increase progesterone levels in the body and decrease estrogen. There are also other components:
- Various resins. They have a bactericidal effect.
- Arbutin. Has an antiseptic effect, helps remove pigmentation on the skin.
- Saponins. Known for their tonic, wound-healing and thinning effects.
- Coumarin. It is a herbal anticoagulant: it thins the blood and helps fight blood clots.
- Hydroquinone. It is a natural antioxidant with antiseptic and diuretic properties.
- Citric and tartaric acids. Accelerate metabolism, strengthen immunity.
- Flavonoids. Natural antioxidants that are characterized by a choleretic effect.
- Tannins. They have a positive effect on the gastrointestinal tract in cases of disorders and dysbiosis.
The plant contains a variety of microelements (copper, manganese, titanium). They demonstrate a general strengthening effect and have a positive effect on brain activity.
Medicinal properties
Most often, boron uterus is used in the treatment of diseases of the female reproductive system. However, it is prohibited to take it uncontrollably. The doctor must select a treatment regimen taking into account the pathology, age of the patient and concomitant health problems.
Also, ortilia lopsided has proven itself positively in normalizing the functioning of the endocrine and immune systems. It helps improve the functioning of the intestines and increases the elasticity of blood vessels.
The medicinal properties of the plant are as follows:
- Correction of hormonal levels. Phytohormones can restore the menstrual cycle or smooth out the course of premenstrual syndrome.
- Fighting inflammatory processes in the pelvis. We are talking about the following pathologies: vaginitis, thrush, cervical erosion, endometritis, cystitis, etc.
- Fighting diseases of a tumor nature. Uterine fibroids fall into this category. This is a benign neoplasm that rarely transforms into malignant. However, it can grow to impressive sizes, significantly worsening a woman’s quality of life.
Among other therapeutic properties of the boron uterus, the following are distinguished:
- strengthening the immune system;
- increased libido;
- decreased breast sensitivity during menstruation;
- improving sperm quality;
- elimination of urinary incontinence, pyelonephritis;
- help with prostate adenoma, prostatitis.
There are also cases of positive use of medicinal plants for diabetes mellitus.
Indications for use
Taking Borovaya Uterus is an auxiliary method of treating diseases of the gynecological, genitourinary, and endocrine systems, namely:
- uterine fibroma;
- vaginitis, vulvitis;
- premenstrual syndrome;
- urethritis, cystitis;
- kidney inflammation;
- urolithiasis disease;
- pancreatic dysfunction;
- polycystic ovary syndrome;
- diabetes.
The affordable price and gentle composition of the drug allow it to be taken for a long time during infertility treatment.
Contraindications for use
Among the indications for the hog uterus are more than 40 diseases, but if used incorrectly, it can cause significant harm to health.
The plant is contraindicated for use during menstruation and bleeding due to uterine fibroids. The thing is that it contains components that actively thin the blood, so before starting treatment it is recommended to take a blood clotting test. If the result is positive, it is better to abandon this remedy.
It is important to remember that the components of one-sided ortilia are phytohormones. Its simultaneous use with birth control pills can lead to irreparable consequences. The composition also contains arbutin. In the human body, it is transformed into hydroquinone, which is a toxin. In case of liver diseases, this substance can aggravate the course of the underlying pathology.
Contraindications also include childhood and a history of allergies. If you experience headaches, nausea or redness of the skin, you should stop taking the product. If the condition does not improve after an hour, you should consult a doctor.
Use for menstrual irregularities
Menstrual irregularities have dozens of different causes. All of them are divided into three groups:
- dyshormonal diseases;
- organic pathologies of the uterus;
- extragenital pathology (cancer of various localizations, liver cirrhosis, blood clotting disorders, etc.).
To believe that the hog uterus eliminates all disorders of the menstrual cycle means to admit that it cures all diseases not only of the reproductive system, but also somatic ones. It turns out that the plant not only eliminates or compensates for any hormonal imbalances, but at the same time removes tumors and cures cirrhosis of the liver. Is this possible? Of course not. The properties of the boron uterus are fictitious. None of the listed indications for its use are actually such.
Application in gynecology
Borovaya uterus is used to treat many diseases of the female reproductive system. The most popular cases are discussed below:
- Infertility. If a married couple cannot conceive a child within a year, they are diagnosed with infertility. There can be a large number of reasons, but the most common is tubal obstruction. It, in turn, is preceded by various infectious diseases. Treatment is usually long-term and includes various methods, including, for example, drinking boron uterus. To get pregnant, as a rule, the course of therapy is 4 weeks. If you apply again, it will be extended to 6 months. You can use any form of the product: teas, decoctions, infusions.
- Thrush. This is an insidious disease that requires a comprehensive therapeutic approach. The woman is prescribed a diet with the exclusion of certain foods, and medications are prescribed. Ortilia unilateral is also often used in treatment. It helps normalize hormonal levels, thanks to which the body directs all its forces to fight the disease. The plant is used in the form of infusions, decoctions, and douching.
- Endometriosis. With this disease, the boron uterus best shows its healing properties, according to the reviews of women. It is characterized by the growth of the endometrium beyond the genital organ. Therapy is usually comprehensive and includes symptomatic measures, hormonal medications, and physiotherapy. Herbal medicine, which includes ortilia unilateral, helps normalize the balance of hormones. As a result, the scale of inflammation is reduced and the disease goes away.
- Myoma. It is unacceptable to treat this pathology on your own. Using unilateral ortilia, only small fibroids located intramurally are stopped, and as an additional method to the official therapy protocol.
The use of boron uterus in gynecology is not limited to the cases listed above. The plant is also actively used during menopause. This period is characterized by various manifestations, ranging from sudden mood swings to exacerbation of chronic diseases, which significantly worsens the quality of life. Gynecologists recommend ortilia unilateral to cope with these symptoms. How else can the plant be useful:
- Helps normalize hormonal levels.
- Calms the central nervous system, improves mood and relieves insomnia.
- Optimizes the functioning of the vegetative-vascular system, relieves fatigue, and increases performance.
- Normalizes blood circulation, prevents hypertension, reduces swelling.
However, only a doctor can prescribe this drug and select its dosage during menopause.
Use during pregnancy
There is no consensus among doctors on the question of whether boron uterus grass can be used during pregnancy. Most are guided by the instructions, which prohibit its use during pregnancy. However, many women have the opposite opinion.
Some used the plant to treat fibroids and were then able to become mothers. This is due to the large amount of phytoestrogens in its composition. After therapy, the hormonal levels are leveled, which allows the reproductive system to be activated.
If pregnancy occurs while using a decoction of boron uterus, it is necessary to continue taking it in the first trimester. This helps reduce the manifestations of toxicosis and reduce the likelihood of miscarriage. It is better for a pregnant woman to choose a medicinal decoction. But it is better to avoid alcohol tinctures. You should also stop taking the product in the 2nd and 3rd trimester to avoid spontaneous abortion.
If a woman decides to start taking boron uterus while pregnant, the effect of phytoestrogens may be unpredictable. Hormonal fluctuations often lead to pregnancy ending. They can harm the fetus and cause miscarriage. You should not expose your body and the child in the womb to such risks.
Price
Borovaya uterus can have different prices, depending on the manufacturer and form of release. The cheapest grass is in its natural form. For example, Borovaya uterus Evalar costs 200 rubles for 30 g. In filter bags, the same plant costs 250 rubles. You can save money if you buy a boron uterus produced by Herbes. In this case, for 30 g of herb you will pay only 40 rubles.
Borovaya uterus in tablets (forte) costs 130 rubles for 30 pieces. Take them 3 tablets a day. Accordingly, a monthly course of treatment will cost approximately 500 rubles.

Is it possible to take medications with boron uterus while breastfeeding?
The answer to this question will always be negative. This plant and breastfeeding are incompatible. The components contained in it may be toxic to children.
If a woman has gynecological diseases, she needs to wean the baby from the breast and begin treatment, or continue feeding, but note the treatment regimen. It is important to note that ortilia unilateral inhibits milk production in the body, so a woman usually does not have difficulties with an excess of milk or other problems accompanying the cessation of lactation.
Bottom line
Careful adherence to all established instructions regarding the use of the boron uterus will allow a woman to get rid of most gynecological diseases and restore the functioning of almost all body systems. Also, during the therapeutic course, you can achieve stabilization of the emotional background and have a calming effect on the nervous system. All this has a beneficial effect on the general well-being of women and allows them to improve the quality of their lives.
Benefits for men
For a long time, Ortilia lopsided was considered an exclusively “female” grass. However, today it is used in the treatment of male diseases.
Borovaya uterus is used for infertility. It has a positive effect on hormonal levels, strengthens the immune system and stimulates spermatogenesis. After a course of treatment, the body begins to produce more seminal fluid, and its quality noticeably improves. Another bonus of such therapy is increased libido. The chances of successful conception increase significantly.
Many men after 50 years old are faced with such a disease as prostatitis. Traditional medicine suggests treating it with antibiotics and hormonal agents. An alternative is Ortilia unilateral. Its proper use allows not only to cope with the disease. The herb has an antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect.
Inflammation of the prostate gland is usually accompanied by purulent discharge and painful urination. These symptoms are well relieved by a decoction based on a medicinal plant. It is usually recommended to take it orally and douche.
Plant composition

- Coumarin is a substance that enhances aroma.
- Saponins are organic compounds that tend to form foam and also enhance the secretion of the internal glands of the body.

Traditional medicine recipes
Instructions for using boron uterus involve preparing various tinctures and decoctions at home. To do this, you need to purchase raw materials at the pharmacy. Below are several recipes.
- Tincture. To prepare it, you will need 50 g of herb, pour 0.5 liters of vodka, mix and pour into a glass container. Infuse in a cool, dark place, shaking the vessel occasionally. After this time, the mixture must be filtered, carefully squeeze out the leaves and stems of the plant. Take according to the regimen recommended by your doctor.
- Decoction. Pour approximately 20 g of herb into 400 ml of water and leave to simmer in a water bath. After 5 minutes, strain the broth. How to drink boron uterus? The standard dosage is a tablespoon 4 times a day.
- Infusion. The infusion differs from the decoction in its more concentrated composition. You will need to pour 10 g of herb into a glass of boiling water and leave for an hour. Then the drink is left to be strained. Use it throughout the day in three doses.
- Douching solution. You need to pour 2 tablespoons of dry raw materials with a glass of boiling water and let it brew for 3 hours. Then the resulting composition is filtered. Used for douching. You can also moisten tampons in it, which are then inserted into the vagina.
Before starting any therapy option, you should consult your doctor. A competent specialist always prescribes herbal medicine after a comprehensive diagnosis of the patient’s body and studying her medical history. The doctor will also tell you how to drink boron uterus and in what dosage. Only in this case can we expect positive dynamics in treatment.
pharmachologic effect
Borovaya uterus does not have a pharmacological effect as such. In the instructions for use for any supplement based on this plant, you can read that it is just a source of flavonoids. Because the herb has no proven ability to cure any diseases.
Despite this, you can find a lot of information about the beneficial properties of the plant in the media and on the websites of pharmaceutical manufacturing companies. It is supposed to have the following effects:
- antimicrobial;
- anti-inflammatory;
- disinfectant;
- antitumor;
- diuretic;
- absorbable;
- immunostimulating.
Do not be mistaken about the pharmacological properties of boron uterus. Perhaps it really has antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and even antitumor effects. But this does not mean that it is capable of curing oncological or infectious pathologies. Hundreds, and perhaps thousands of plants have these effects, and yet are not used medicinally. Because the use of boron uterus does not give a concrete result. Anti-inflammatory and antitumor properties are realized only in experiments on cell cultures. That is, they are present “in vitro” (in a test tube), but absent “in vivo” (in the human body).
Pharmacy forms
Many people prefer to buy medicines only at the pharmacy. They meet safety and environmental requirements. You can also buy tincture of boron uterus at the pharmacy. It is made on an alcohol basis and costs 150-200 rubles. Dried plant materials are also sold. It is used to prepare decoctions and infusions. The finished product can be stored for no more than 2 days.
Collection and preparation of grass
The above-ground parts of the plant are suitable for preparing medicines; raw materials should be collected in mid-summer or late autumn after the first frost - during these periods the grass is maximally saturated with useful substances.
Dry the hogweed in the fresh air
The grass needs to be washed, dried in the open air, and protected from direct sunlight. Ortilia should be stored in paper bags or sealed glass containers for 24 months.
Reviews from doctors and women
First of all, it should be noted that large-scale studies on the benefits and harms of the boron uterus have not been conducted. There is data on few clinical trials of alcohol tincture. However, they are controversial, and a placebo effect cannot be ruled out.
Doctors have different opinions. Some believe that combining traditional and herbal medicine is quite possible. For example, with endometriosis, the uterus shows positive results in treatment. Others are confident that only competent prescription of a medicinal plant can help in therapy. The doctor must know the specifics of the pathological process, so independent use of the product, based on the reviews of friends, is unacceptable.
As for the opinion of the fair sex, in most cases it has a positive connotation. Women admit that the plant really helps with gynecological diseases. In addition, it reduces the unpleasant manifestations of conditions such as menopause.
For many of them, one-sided ortilia helped them “take on” the role of a mother. However, they admit that a positive therapeutic effect can only be expected if it is used correctly. Only a doctor, taking into account the patient’s medical history and the results of a comprehensive diagnostic examination, can select the exact dosage and method of administration.

Reviews from doctors about the hog uterus
Natalya, obstetrician-gynecologist, Moscow
Many years of research into medicinal herbs for the treatment of infertility have yielded absolutely no results. If herbal medicine, in principle, shows effectiveness in some areas of gynecology (PMS, algodysmenorrhea, etc.), then it does not work against infertility caused not by inflammatory, but by physiological, genetic or other factors; moreover, it can increase the risk of miscarriage . After all, ortilia at least provokes bleeding. Be careful and careful, expectant mothers - we are talking about your health.
Sergey Gromov, herbalist, St. Petersburg
For non-experts, hogweed is just a useless plant, but it has been used for at least 600 years. The main feature of this plant is not so much the composition (in many medicinal herbs it is identical), but the special balance of the proportions of microelements and ortilia substances - modern science has not dug so deeply, and the effectiveness of this herb has been confirmed by practice, moreover, it was tested in parallel with a placebo in order to exclude self-hypnosis and other extraneous factors: the results are amazing. Sincerely, Sergey Gromov is a professional herbalist.
Dmitry Gordon
Conservative medicine has always rejected, and will continue to reject, herbal medicine and other departments of NM. However, this is not a reason to dismiss the effectiveness of such treatment methods. I believe that in a narrow area the use of boron uterus is justified, but there is no need to make it a panacea for all ills. The real segment where it can be used is complex therapy, as an anti-inflammatory agent in the treatment of gynecological diseases.
Patient reviews
Galina, Moscow
I had 2 abortions at 19 and 22 years old. Then I couldn’t get pregnant at all, until I was 29 years old - I started drinking boron uterus without skipping stages. On the second cyclo-month I found out that I was pregnant. I don’t believe in miracles, but the herb still works...
Natalya, Moscow
I’ll tell you my story: seven years ago, a fibroid node was discovered, which was deforming the uterine cavity. The doctors hinted that if bleeding occurs during the operation due to the “poor” location of the node, they will remove the entire uterus. I was in despair, relatives from Altai, knowing the situation, sent me this hog queen. Oh miracle! I started drinking, I feel like I’m feeling better, my breasts have almost grown in size)), and my fibroids have also grown, and significantly. By luck, I came across embolization specialists who performed UAE and now I don’t have such problems. So there is no magic. Perhaps it is suitable for someone, but not for serious illness.
Evgenia, St. Petersburg
Girls, I say quite seriously - if you want to get pregnant but can’t, take a course of this herb, because it won’t get any worse. I don’t know about others, but I managed to get pregnant after two weeks of using the boron uterus, maybe it was a coincidence or an accident, but this accident is already in its fifth month)))))
