To treat menopause in women it is often combined with Morinda to treat hypertension, and is officially listed by the Chinese Academy of Medial Sciences as one of an elite group of herbs that slow down aging and promote longevity.

Unlike the many herbs that have estrogenlike effects, epimedium is an unusual herb in that it has testosteronelike effects. It stimulates sexual activity in both men and women, increases sperm production, stimulates the sensory nerves, and increases sexual desire. This herb increases blood flow to the penis and also prevents a protein called fibrin from being deposited on capillary walls, thus preventing loss of sexual function in men with atherosclerosis. Epimedium's testosteronelike actions also allow it to fight the muscle wasting experienced by many people with AIDS. In laboratory tests, chemical components of the herb even act against the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) itself. Phyllis A. Balch, Prescription for Herbal Healing (2002) |

Epimedium grandiflorum Violaceum
Epimedium is an ivy-like ground shrub of the higher and drier areas of China and Tibet. It is in the same plant family as barberry and Oregon grape root. Horny goat weed was named epimedium because it is similar to a plant found in the ancient Asian kingdom of Media, now a part of Iran. Epimedium is a genus of many related plant species and some are used for medicinal purposes, including Epimedium sagittatum, Epimedium brevicornum, epimedium grandiflorum, and Epimedium koreanum. The genus is also a popular ground cover for landscaping.
