I tried it when I wanted to get off hormonal treatment and it didn’t work for me.
I had severe hot flashes and anxiety attacks.

About all you can do is try it and see if it works for you.

I would tend to think that if it works for someone, it’s because their body isn’t having a harsh menopause.

No but B-6 has worked wonders for me. Slowed down the severity and number of hot flashes, it also helped with the mood swings. Take one per day.

What do you think? Answer below!

Sleepless nights, fatique, thinning hair, mood swings= Menopause for me. Any advice will be appreciated I thinking about using Black Cohosh, but I need to know if some had used it and what is their opinion. Other options will also be appreciated

I’m planning on taking Black Cohosh for perimenopause relief, but I read an article that said take 70mg. The dosage I bought at the grocery store is 540 mg. Is this dosage okay?

Im 21 and have a hormone imbalance, Very low estrogen levels that my doctors said if she didnt know any better she would say i was in menopause. I cant seem to tolerate fake estrogen such as the patch, or birth control pills. Ive tried Maca root also. I was wondering if anyone knows about taking Black Cohosh. I get very bad menstrual cramps to the point that i cant get out of bed and i take vicodin for 3 days. Its horrible upper leg cramps. Are there any side effects? Ive heard it only help for a short period of time but im desperate. Thanks In Advance.
