Pharmacological and therapeutic effect of the drug
"Mastodinone" is a drug based on herbal ingredients. Its therapeutic and pharmacological effect on the body is due to the properties of medicinal herbs in its composition.
The main pharmacological property of Mastodinon is dopaminergic. That is, the drug is able to enhance the secretion of dopamine in the structure of the brain and accelerate the activity of the corresponding receptors. With the acceleration of dopamine metabolism in the human pituitary gland, the secretion of prolactin, a direct stimulator of the secretion of a variety of gonadotropic hormones (for example, luteinizing, follicle-stimulating and thyrotropic), is reduced. With a decrease in prolactin secretion, its effect decreases, as a result, the synthesis of gonadotropic hormones that regulate the functioning of such organs as the ovaries, uterus, and fallopian tubes is normalized. The final effect when using "Mastodinon" is the elimination of infertility, the normalization of the cycle of menstruation that arose against the background of excess prolactin and developed corpus luteum failure.

A decrease in prolactin levels contributes to the reverse development of fibrocystic mastopathy. It is worth noting that the involution and complete disappearance of mastopathy is possible only with continuous administration of the drug for 6 or more weeks, since prolactin should be at a reduced level for just such a period. The doctors' comments about the "Mastodinone" confirm this.
