Abstract

Objectives: This study was carried out to assess effect of Secamone afzelii on lactation and perpetuate availability. Methodology: Sections of Secamone afzelii plants were cultured under natural conditions in the immediate environment and then observed for 7 days. The ethanol extract with or without ash of plant was administered orally to female rats at a dose of 225 mg/mL/kg bw, twice a day for 4 days. Then, the level of prolactin was measured in these animals. Results: The results of the cultivation technique of Secamone afzelii indicate a significant difference between stems with armpits and those without. The first mentioned produce buds unlike those without armpits. In addition, Secamone afzelii extract significantly increases the prolactin content in treated rats. The effect of the extract is potentiated by the ash of the same plant: the prolactin content in the rats treated with the extract + ash mixture is significantly higher than that of the rats treated only with the extract. Conclusion: It appears that the extract of Secamone afzelii (enriched or not in ash), would stimulate milk secretion in female rats. In addition, the cultivation techniques applied to this plant could promote its durability, availability and easy access.
