Red Clover

Red clover, botanically known as Trifolium pratense is a herbaceous perennial plant that belongs to pea family, commonly grows in Europe, western Asia and northwest Africa. [1, 2] This flowering plant has alternate, long, broad leaves, with dark pink or red flowers produced in a dense inflorescence. [1] Red clover belongs to pea family whose members are called phytoestrogens. These are plant-based compounds that are functionally similar to estrogen.
