چکیده

مقدمه: رازیانه با نام علمی فنلیوم ولگاری، یکی از داروهای گیاهی است که استفاده وسیع و متفاوتی در سلامت زنان دارد. با توجه به لزوم آگاهی از موارد کاربرد این گیاه در سلامت زنان، مطالعه حاضر با هدف تجمیع دانش موجود و با هدف تعیین کاربردهای رازیانه در سلامت زنان انجام شد.
روشکار: در این مطالعه مروری نظام‌مند، مطالعات کارآزمایی بالینی با مداخله رازیانه بر روی مبحث زنان از پایگاه ‏های اطلاعاتی‏ از بین تمامی مقالات اعم از فارسی و انگلیسی بدون محدودیت زمانی جستجو شدند. کیفیت کارآزمایی ­های بالینی یافت شده با سیستم جداد بررسی و تجزیه ‏و تحلیل ‏داده ‏ها به‌صورت کیفی ‏انجام شد.
یافته­ ها: در این مطالعه تعداد 38 مطالعه کارآزمایی بالینی با مداخله رازیانه در سلامت زنان مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. از این 38 مقاله، 4 مقاله در درمان سندرم پیش از قاعدگی، 14 مقاله مربوط به دیسمنوره، 1 مقاله در مورد پیشگیری از دیسپارونی پس از زایمان، 2 مقاله در خصوص شیردهی، 3 مقاله در مورد سندرم تخمدان پلی‌کیستیک، 12 مقاله در خصوص یائسگی و 2 مقاله در رابطه با سلامت استخوان زنان بود. از رازیانه به اشکال مختلف ژل، پودر، عصاره، کپسول، روغن، کرم واژینال استفاده شده است. به‌دلیل اینکه متدولوژی مطالعات از نظر کیفیت ناهمگون بود، امکان انجام متاآنالیز وجود نداشت.
نتیجه ­گیری: از رازیانه در سلامت زنان و درمان سندرم پیش از قاعدگی، دیسمنوره، دیسپارونی بعد از زایمان، شیردهی، سندرم تخمدان پلی‌کیستیک، علائم یائسگی و سلامت استخوان استفاده شده است. از طرفی با توجه به احتمال عوارض جانبی از قبیل رشد تومورهای پستان با مصرف رازیانه و اینکه این گیاهان می ­تواند یکی از منابع مهم انتقال فلزات سنگین به بدن انسان باشد و سلامت انسان را به خطر بیندازد، پیشنهاد می­ شود از مصرف بی‌رویه رازیانه اجتناب شود.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: Fennel or Foeniculum vulgare is one of the herbal medicines that has a wide and different use in women's health. Considering the need to know about the application of this plant in women's health, this study was conducted with aim to consolidate the existing knowledge and to determine the applications of fennel in women's health.
Methods: In this systematic review, clinical trial studies with fennel intervention on women were searched from databases among all articles, both Persian and English, without time limitation. The quality of the found clinical trials was reviewed by Jadad system and analyzed by using qualitatively analysis.
Results: In this study, 38 clinical trial studies with fennel intervention in women's health were investigated. Of these 38 articles, 4 articles were found on the treatment of premenstrual syndrome, 14 articles on dysmenorrhea, 1 article on the prevention of postpartum dyspareunia, 2 articles on breastfeeding, 3 articles on polycystic ovary syndrome, 12 articles on menopause and 2 articles related to women's bone health. Fennel has been used in various forms of gel, powder, extract, capsule, oil, and vaginal cream. Since the methodology of the studies was heterogeneous in terms of quality, it was not possible to conduct a meta-analysis.
Conclusion: Fennel has been used in women's health and treatment of premenstrual syndrome, dysmenorrhea, postpartum dyspareunia, breastfeeding, polycystic ovary syndrome, menopausal symptoms and bone health. On the other hand, due to the possibility of side effects such as the growth of breast tumors with the consumption of fennel and that these plants can be one of the important sources of heavy metals transfer to the human body and endanger human health, it is suggested to avoid excessive consumption of fennel.
