Herbs Bring Menopause relief
Today, the number of women turning to herbs for menopause relief is
staggering. With great concern about hormone replacement therapy
in recent years, we now see women interested in avoiding
chemicals and toxins, preferring a natural path. Because there
are so many women now seeking alternatives to traditional
treatment for menopause, more investigation is being done to
find new options in addition to those that have been used by
naturalists for hundreds of years. If you are like so many women
who want to find relief from night sweats, hot flashes, joint
pain, insomnia, and depression the natural way, then we believe
this article will expose you to some excellent options.
First, a great herb for menopause relief, especially when it
comes to many of the annoying symptoms is called Dong Quai. In
Chinese medicine, Dong Quai, the root of the angelica sinesis
plant, helps with many menopausal symptoms. Interestingly, while
many women will use this natural herb for menopause relief
alone, in Chinese medicine, it is always used as a supportive
herb. Regardless, many studies have been performed whereby women
taking 1500 mgs of this herb three times a day had improvement
in symptoms.
Another popular herb for menopause relief is red clover.
Affordable and easy to find, this herb has been used in the
United States for more than 100 years. Containing
phytoestrogens, which are hormone-like substances, found in
certain plants such as soy, red clover is wonderful for
treatment of vaginal dryness and hot flashes. Typically, a woman
would take between 40 and 60 mgs for about 12 weeks. The reason
this is not a long-term treatment option is that red clover has
been shown
to stimulate cancer cells in the breast.
Next on the list of herbs for menopause relief is black cohosh. This herb is a member of the buttercup
family and considered one of the most popular, natural treatment
options for menopause. You can purchase black cohosh as a
supplement from a health food store or in brand form such as
Remifemin. When it comes to anxiety, depression, night sweats,
and hot flashes, black cohosh works exceptionally well. Other
herbs for menopause relief to consider include evening primrose
oil, chaste tree berry, tribulus, St. John's Wort, soy, and
ginseng, which seem to ease symptoms overall.
In addition to herbs for menopause relief, you have many other
options such as vitamin E. In recent years, a number of studies
have been performed showing that vitamin E brings relief for
miserable hot flashes. Wild yam is also an option, which can be
found in many types of progesterone creams. For this, women
experience fewer and less intense hot flashes, the number one
complaint among menopausal women. With so much negative
attention on hormone replacement therapy, you might consider
herbs for menopause relief. In many cases, the natural approach
is more successful in treating the body during the change of
life than traditional drugs.
