Optimization of Estrogenic Activities of Kebar Grassextract (Biophytum Petersianum) on White Female Mice (Mus musculus)

As estrogen levels decrease, the risk of osteoporosis, bone fractures, heart disease and even cancer increase. The kebar grass (Biophytum petersianum), which has long been used as atraditional fertility medicine by Papuans, is suspected to have anestrogenic activity.
