Benefits of goron tula to the female reproductive system  

Since it's a known potent sexual enhancer, you may decide to chew on a few fruits. Some of the potential benefits for females include:

• Fight vaginal bacteria

A bacterial infection causes an imbalance in the acidity of the vagina. Goron tula cleanses the vagina and fights off wading bacteria. It promotes the growth of average vaginal floral and Ph balance. 

• Increases cervical mucus

Some women dealing with infertility might also experience a dry vagina. It makes it difficult for proper penetration and flow of semen during sexual intercourse. The mucus is egg-white in colour, enabling sperm to swim and survive in the cervix before moving to the uterus and the fallopian tube. 

• Enhances ovulation

Gordon tula has a rich source of magnesium which promotes better ovulation. Magnesium deficiency increases stress levels, and stress prevents ovulation from occurring in women. 

• Regularize menstruation

Gordon tula may help to maintain regular menstruation. Irregular periods slow down the conception process.
