Black cohosh
Unlike hormone replacement therapy which artificially raises a
woman's estrogen
levels, herbal treatments seek to address hormonal balance, whether you
need to 'bring on the moon', make the transition to menopause or help
regulate your
menstrual periods. Herbal remedies for
menopause make use of phytoestrogens, chemical compounds occurring naturally
in plants, that have similarities to human estrogen. No herb or supplement
actually
contains estrogen, but these plant compounds tend to act like weak estrogens,
without the high level of side effects. Herbs such as
alfalfa ,
black cohosh
and
dong quai have a long history of use that supports their use in toning the
female reproductive system. These estrogenic herbs are often combined with
sedatives ,
diuretics and other
hormone balancing herbs to relieve a whole
range of menopausal problems including hot flashes, insomnia, moodiness, restlessness
and irritability.
When I was going through the change, it was the simple things that had the greatest
effect, and I still employ them even now in my crone years. A quick spritz with
a few drops of
clary sage oil in cool water has a calming, grounding effect on
my moods. A lukewarm bath in cooling herbs like
eucalyptus and
peppermint can
reduce the heat of hot flashes, or any time you find yourself overheated.
A cup
of
motherwort tea can bring serenity to the most hectic and stressful day
and help you regain your inner balance.
