Does Black Seed Oil Work for Blocked Fallopian Tubes?
For thousands of years, people have been using the fruit of a small black seed called Nigella sativa as natural medicine. Nigella sativa is an annual herb, originated in the Mediterranean region. It is now all over Asia, Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. The oil extracted from the seed of this herb by cold pressing method has long been used in folk and traditional medicine for many diseases.
Black seed is also known as black coriander, black cumin, garungi and black onion seeds. Some researchers believe that black seed oil can help restore melanin levels, which can make skin and eyes dark. It also reduces inflammatory stimulation and may reduce eczema.
The black seed oil contains thymoquinone, which is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compound. Thymoquinone has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects; it can help people to prevent diseases and enhance our body's recovery ability, and may also have anti-cancer properties.
Researchers at Kyushu University in Japan report that black seed oil may help prevent conjunctivitis, abscesses, parasites and other infections. Japanese researchers have also shown that in vivo treatment with black seed oil can produce a strong antiviral effect against mouse cytomegalovirus infection. The results of this study were published in the International Journal of Immunopharmacology in September 2000.
Researchers at Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College in India report that black seed oil has strong antibacterial activity through in vivo and in vitro system detection. The results of the study were published in the 2008 Journal of the unidentified medicine Hippocrates. These antimicrobial, antifungal, and antiviral effects are attributed to the essential oils of the seeds.
The black seed oil has effective antifungal and antibacterial properties and can be widely used to treat and cure fungal infection. It was found that Gram-positive bacteria were generally more sensitive to these extracts than Gram-negative bacteria. As we know, the main cause of
blocked fallopian tubes(
tubal blockage) is gynecological inflammation, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, which is mostly caused by ascending bacteria.
