A traditional European botanical studied for its role in hormone balance.
Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica) leaf extract has a long history in European herbal medicine for men's urinary and prostate health, and has been the subject of substantial modern phytomedicine research.
Its mechanism appears to involve effects on sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and anti-inflammatory properties at the prostate tissue level, complementing Saw Palmetto's different mechanism (5-alpha reductase enzyme activity).
FlowStrong includes Stinging Nettle as a third prostate-specific botanical, working alongside Saw Palmetto and Pygeum to address prostate wellness through multiple simultaneous mechanisms.
