Kamla Kant Shukla,1 Abbas Ali Mahdi,1 Mohammad Kaleem Ahmad,1 Shyam Pyari Jaiswar,2 Satya Narain Shankwar,3 and Sarvada Chandra Tiwari4
Conclusion:
On the basis of the afore-stated facts, it may be proposed that increased dopamine level in the brain may not only optimize the release of hormones, including testosterone, leading to increased sexual drive and improved performance, but it may also accomplish reduction of psychological stress. Moreover, treatment with Mucuna pruriens may also contribute to proper functioning of male genital system and facilitate sperm transport, contraction of seminal vesicles and inhibition of lipid peroxidation of spermatozoa.

The herbs used in KAMTONE F takes care of above problems and their scientific research references are as follows:
“Phytoestrogens” are any plant compound structurally and/or functionally similar to ovarian and placental Estrogen (Female Sex hormone). Three herbs out of five used in KAMTONE F are rich in Phytoestrogen. Hence helpful in restoring hormonal imbalance.
Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus): Shatavari is a sanskrit word, which is a combinatin of Shat (meaning one hundred) and Avari (meaning that the person who takes this plant can get married a hundred times). Another synonym of Shatavari is Bahusuta (many children) because it helps in increasing fertility. It is also called Virundivari (taking away the fear of getting married if there is a lack of hormonal flow), Pivari (helping to continue marital bliss), Shatavirya (giving “100 times” more potency than other herbs, especially for strengthening shukra dhatu, or reproductive tissue).
In spite of being a rejuvenating herb Shatavari is beneficial in female infertility, as it increases libido, cures inflammation of sexual organs and even moistens dry tissues of the sexual organs, enhances folliculogenesis and ovulation, prepares the womb for conception, prevents miscarriages, acts as post partum tonic by increasing lactation.
Few Scientific research references which validate the traditional use of Shatavari in Ayurved as female rejuvenator are as follows:

Abstract
The plant Asparagus racemosus is one of the most widely used sources of phytoestrogens because of its high content of the steroidal saponins, shatavarins I-IV, in roots. ……………………….Thus, the PCR-RFLP analysis of matK gene was shown to be an effective method for authentication of the medicinally phytoestrogenic species, A. Racemosus.
